RHBA-2011:1428 - Bug Fix Advisory

标题

An updated openais package that fixes three bugs is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.

描述

The Application Interface Specification (AIS) is an API and a set of policies
for developing applications that maintain services during faults. The OpenAIS
Standards Based Cluster Framework is an OSI-certified implementation of the
Service Availability Forum AIS. The openais package contains the openais
executable, OpenAIS service handlers, default configuration files and an init
script.

This update fixes the following bugs:

• Previously, when OpenAIS was used in a lossy network, and a large number of

configuration changes occurred, OpenAIS sometimes terminated unexpectedly. To
solve this problem, the underlying source code has been modified, and OpenAIS no
longer crashes in the scenario described. (BZ#731460)

• In rare cases, rapidly starting and stopping the openais service sometimes

resulted in a deadlock. This update adapts the underlying source code to prevent
such a deadlock, resolving this issue. Deadlock situations no longer happen
during a rapid start/stop process. (BZ#739083)

• Under certain circumstances, the previous version of OpenAIS sometimes used an

incorrect sort message queue when the "memb_join" message was sent during
recovery. With this update, this error has been fixed, and OpenAIS now uses a
correct sort message queue in this scenario. (BZ#739086)

All users of openais are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes
these bugs.
