RHBA-2011:1764 - udisks bug fix update


Synopsis

udisks bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An updated udisks package that fixes one bug is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The udisks daemon provides interfaces to obtain information and perform operations on storage devices.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Prior to this update, the redundant udev watch rule interfered with the Logical Volume Manager (LVM) which could cause problems under certain workloads. This update removes this udev rule and udisks no longer interferes with LVM. (BZ#738479)

All users of udisks 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.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at This content is not included.https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-11259
