RHBA-2012:0847 - libhbaapi bug fix update

Synopsis

libhbaapi bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory (none)

Topic

Updated libhbaapi packages that fix multiple bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The libhbaapi library is the Host Bus Adapter (HBA) API library for Fibre Channel and Storage Area Network (SAN) resources. It contains a unified API that programmers can use to access, query, observe and modify SAN and Fibre Channel services.

  • The libhbaapi build environment has been upgraded to upstream version 2.2.5, which provides a number of bug fixes over the previous version. (BZ#788504)

This update also fixes the following bug:

  • Prior to this update, the hba.conf file was not marked for exclusion from verification in the libhbaapi specification file. As a consequence, the file verify function "rpm -V libhbaapi" reported an error in the hba.conf file if the file was changed. This update marks hba.conf in the spec file as "%verify(not md5 size mtime)". Now, the hba.conf file is no longer incorrectly verified. (BZ#806731)

All users of libhbaapi are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs.

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 https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/articles/11258
