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.

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
