RHBA-2010:0847 - tuned bug fix update
Synopsis
tuned bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
Updated tuned packages that fix profiles performing I/O scheduler changes.
Description
Tuned is a utility for tuning system performance and power-consumption. Various profiles are available.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Prior to this update, I/O scheduler changes were not applied to device mapper (dm) devices, which affected the enterprise-storage, latency-performance and throughput-performance profiles. This error has been fixed, device mapper devices have been added to the "ELEVATOR_TUNE_DEVS" list, and I/O scheduler changes are now applied to all devices as expected. (BZ#638975)
All users of tuned are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve this issue.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
