Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory (none)

Topic

An updated system-config-lvm package that fixes one bug is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The system-config-lvm utility enables users to configure logical volumes using a GUI.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Due to a bug in the system-config-lvm utility, the utility terminated unexpectedly when striped mirrored devices were found on the system. With this update, the underlying source code has been modified so that the users can now fully interact with supported devices. However, volume group information may not always render properly for stripped mirrored devices. (BZ#923643)

Users of system-config-lvm 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.
