Updated conga packages that fix several bugs and add enhancements are now
available.

Description

The conga packages contain a web-based administration tool for remote
cluster and storage management.

These updated packages fix the following bugs:

• An error that caused adding nodes to existing clusters has been fixed.
• A bug that caused configuration of GNBD fence devices in luci to fail has

been fixed.

• A bug that caused "nfstype" to be written instead of "fstype" for netfs

resources has been fixed.

• A bug that caused "hostname" to be written instead of "ipaddr" for RSA II

fencing has been fixed.

• A bug that caused duplicate fence entries when entering multiple fence

devices at one time has been fixed.

• A bug that caused the hierarchy of resource trees to be shown incorrectly

has been fixed.

• A bug that caused a luci service error when using some character sets has

been fixed.

• The monitor link state is now shown correctly for IP address resources.
• An error that prevented editing the "nodename" field for fence_scsi

devices has been fixed.

• A permissions problem that prevented non-admin users from being able to

properly access systems and clusters has been fixed.

• An error that caused deleting snapshot volumes to fail has been fixed.
• The sector size list shown when creating or modifying filesystems is now

sorted properly.

• Cluster nodes are now assigned ID numbers in the order they are entered

when creating clusters and adding nodes to existing clusters.

As well, these updated packages add the following enhancements:

• Support was added for the allowing configuration of failing a service

that uses restart recovery mode to another node after a specified number of
restarts.

• Support was added for VM service migration mapping.
• Support was added for querying ricci for VM state information has been added.
• When clustered storage is requested, the cluster mirror package is installed.
• The sg3_utils package is installed and the scsi_reserve service is

enabled when SCSI fencing is used.
