RHBA-2013:0466 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An updated python-rtslib package that fixes one bug is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The python-rtslib package provides a Python library to configure the kernel
target subsystem, using the configfs file system.

This update fixes the following bug:

• Previously, it was possible to create more than one "fileio" backstore with

the same backing file. This behavior could lead to data loss. This update
prevents "fileio" backstores from using the same backing store. (BZ#838759)

All users of python-rtslib are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
fixes this bug.

Solution

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

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
