Topic

Updated device-mapper-multipath packages that fix one bug are now available for
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

Description

The device-mapper-multipath packages provide tools to manage multipath devices
using the device-mapper multipath kernel module.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, the multipathd daemon did not stop and wait for all of its threads

on shutdown, which caused multipathd to occasionally terminate unexpectedly with
a segmentation fault during shutdown. With this update, multipathd now correctly
stops and waits for its threads during shutdown, and crashes no longer occur in
the described scenario. (BZ#951435)

Users of device-mapper-multipath are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which fix 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 use the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at
