RHBA-2012:1480 - cluster and gfs2-utils bug fix update

Synopsis

cluster and gfs2-utils bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated cluster and gfs2-utils packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The Red Hat Cluster Manager is a collection of technologies working together to provide data integrity and the ability to maintain application availability in the event of a failure. Using redundant hardware, shared disk storage, power management, and robust cluster communication and application failover mechanisms, a cluster can meet the needs of the enterprise market.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, the fenced daemon was creating its log file with insecure permissions. Even though no sensitive data, such as passwords, usernames, or IP addresses were ever stored in the file, with this update, log files are created with correct permissions. Permissions of an existing log file is also automatically corrected if necessary. (BZ#878373)

All users of cluster and gfs2-utils are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix 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
