RHBA-2012:0066 - rgmanager bug fix update

Synopsis

rgmanager bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An updated rgmanager package that fixes one bug is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

Description

The rgmanager package contains the Red Hat Resource Group Manager, which provides the ability to create and manage high-availability server applications in the event of system downtime.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, rgmanager inappropriately called the rg_wait_threads() function during cluster reconfiguration. This could lead to an internal deadlock in rgmanager which caused the cluster services to become unresponsive. This irrelevant call has been removed from the code and deadlocks now no longer occur during cluster reconfiguration. (BZ#759542)

All users of rgmanager 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.

This update is available via 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
