RHBA-2013:0761 - cman bug fix update
Synopsis
cman bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
Updated cman packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
The Cluster Manager (cman) utility provides user-level services for managing a Linux cluster.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Under some circumstances cman can return the fence daemon for the /dev/zero file, which is always active, and if the client application stores this instead of the one it expects then it will loop forever. This update addresses the problem by making sure that the fence daemon refreshes the file descriptor on each operation. (BZ#951049)
Users of cman are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix 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 https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/articles/11258
