RHBA-2009:1396 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated piranha packages that fix several bugs are now available.

Description

Piranha provides high-availability and load balancing services for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. It includes various tools to administer and configure the
Linux Virtual Server (LVS), as well as the heartbeat and failover
components. LVS is a dynamically-adjusted kernel routing mechanism, that
provides load balancing, primarily for Web and FTP servers.

This update fixes the following bugs:

• Logrotate rotates all files including previously rotated one.
• Nanny does not default to webservice query string when no query/expect

string specified.

• Piranha-gui removes slashes from monitoring script send commands.
• Adding real port in piranha-gui caused pulse to error.

Users of piranha are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve these issues.
