RHEA-2012:1574 - lvm2 enhancement update
Synopsis
lvm2 enhancement update
Type/Severity
Product Enhancement Advisory
Topic
Updated lvm2 packages that add an enhancement are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The lvm2 packages provide support for Logical Volume Management (LVM).
This update adds the following enhancement:
- In cases of transient inaccessibility of a PV (Physical Volume), such as with iSCSI or other unreliable transport, LVM required manual action to restore the PV for use even if there was no room for conflict. With this update, the manual action is no longer required if the transiently inaccessible PV had no active metadata areas (MDA). The automatic restore action of a physical volume (PV) from the MISSING state after it becomes reachable again and if it has no active MDA has been added to the lvm2 packages. (BZ#883034)
Users of lvm2 are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which adds this enhancement.
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
