RHBA-2014:1216 - clustermon bug fix update

Synopsis

clustermon bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated clustermon packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

Description

The clustermon packages are used for remote cluster management. The modclusterd service provides an abstraction of cluster status used by conga and by the Simple Network Management (SNMP) and Common Information Model (CIM) modules of clustermon.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • The modcluter module is a ricci module shipped with the clustermon packages. Previously, modcluster mishandled requests with size in bytes divisible by 4096, which is the size of the read buffer in bytes. Consequently, modcluster incorrectly evaluated such requests as errors. This bug has been fixed and modcluster now processes all requests as expected. See also RHBA-2014:17045 for the information about the remaining ricci modules shipped with the ricci packages. (BZ#1076714)

Users of clustermon 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.
