RHBA-2011:1262 - openais bug fix update
Synopsis
openais bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
An updated openais package that fixes one bug is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 Extended Update Support.
Description
The Application Interface Specification (AIS) is an API and a set of policies for developing applications that maintain services during faults. The OpenAIS Standards Based Cluster Framework is an OSI-certified implementation of the Service Availability Forum AIS. This package contains the OpenAIS executable, OpenAIS service handlers, default configuration files and an init script.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Prior to this update, receive buffers could overflow and packets dropped under high traffic. As a result, the retransmit list appeared. This update processes incoming messages more frequently so there is no longer an overflow of receive buffers and dropping messages. (BZ#718773)
All OpenAIS users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes this bug.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
