RHBA-2015:0681 - Red Hat Storage Console 3.0 enhancement and bug fix update #4

Synopsis

Red Hat Storage Console 3.0 enhancement and bug fix update #4

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated rhsc-setup-plugins, org.ovirt.engine-root, otopi, nagios-server-addons, and rhsc-doc packages that fix multiple bugs and adds various enhancements are now available for Red Hat Storage Console 3.

Description

Red Hat Storage Console is a powerful and simple web based Graphical User Interface for managing a Red Hat Storage environment. It helps storage administrators to easily create and manage multiple storage pools.

This advisory fixes the following bugs:

  • Previously, incorrect status was displayed for disconnected network interface. With this fix, the Nagios plug-in checks whether the interface is up and running and displays the correct status. (BZ#1110804)

  • Previously, disks that form bricks were monitored redundantly in both disk utilization and brick utilization service as Disk utilization service monitored all the disks available in the system. With this fix, redundant monitoring of disks is avoided as disk utilization monitors only / , /boot , /home , /var, and /usr mount points. (BZ#1135983)

  • Previously, adding brick to pure replicate volume by increasing replica count failed from Red Hat Storage Console. With this fix, the replica count of a volume can be increased in Add Bricks UI and new bricks can be added to the volume. (BZ#1143828)

  • A new command 'configure-gluster-nagios' is added to create Nagios configurations to monitor Red Hat Storage nodes. The 'configure-gluster-nagios' command can be used instead of running 'discovery.py' script. (BZ#1164682)

  • Previously, a warning message that support for creating replicate volume with replica count=3 is in technology preview was displayed in Red Hat Storage Console. With this fix, the warning message is removed as creation of replicate volume with replica count=3 is now fully supported. (BZ#1186332)

  • Previously, during the initial set up of the Red Hat Storage Console setup tool, if you disable the monitoring feature and later enable it using 'rhsc-monitoring enable' command, the answer file in the Red Hat Storage Console setup tool file did not get updated with the new value. Consequently, if you upgrade the Red Hat Storage Console and execute the Red Hat Storage Console setup again, it looks for the value in the answer file and finds that monitoring is not enabled and accordingly sets it to the disabled state. With this fix, during every run of 'rhsc-setup' command, a message is displayed asking if the user wants to enable monitoring. (BZ#1166563)

  • Previously, Red Hat Storage 3.0.3 node could not be added to Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.5 cluster. With this fix, the vdsm packages are updated to the latest version and now Red Hat Storage 3.0.4 node can be added in 3.5 cluster version of Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.5. But in Red Hat Storage console 3.0.4, the maximum cluster version supported is 3.4 and Red Hat Storage 3.0.4 node can be added as part of 3.4 cluster. (BZ#1181032)

This update also adds the following enhancement:

  • An enhancement has been made to Brick Utilization service to monitor thin-pool metadata utilization in case of thinly provisioned LVs. (BZ#1167771)

All users of Red Hat Storage Console are advised to install these updated packages.
