RHBA-2011:1710 - system-config-lvm bug fix update

Synopsis

system-config-lvm bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory (none)

Topic

An updated system-config-lvm package that fixes one bug is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The system-config-lvm package contains a utility for configuring logical volumes using a graphical user interface.

This update fixes the following bug:

• The system-config-lvm utility incorrectly left mount information in the /etc/fstab configuration file for a logical volume that had been completely removed from the system. This could have caused the system to enter single-user mode after rebooting because it was unable to mount a logical volume in /etc/fstab that no longer existed. This update ensures that system-config-lvm correctly removes the fstab entry for any logical volume that is removed. (BZ#722895)

All users of system-config-lvm are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes this bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
