RHBA-2009:1191 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated openais packages that fix a bug are now available.

Description

The openais packages provide the core infrastructure used by Red Hat
Cluster Suite and GFS.

This update fixes the following bug:

• When a node is sending heavy transmissions, and it is killed and

restarted, it can sometimes lead to complete cluster failure by not
allowing new communication to occur from that node. This is a regression
in the z stream.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use
the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
