RHBA-2010:0883 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An updated cmirror package that fixes a bug is now available.

Description

The cmirror package is necessary for LVM-based mirroring (RAID1) in a cluster
environment.

This updated cmirror package fixes the following bug:

• Previously, the MAJOR/MINOR macros caused a device number miscalculation,

which could result in an association of a given device number with the wrong
device. With this update, the miscalculation no longer occurs and the given
device number is associated with the right device. (BZ#640912)

All users of cmirror are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
resolves this issue.
