RHBA-2014:0282 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated cman packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 5.

Description

The Cluster Manager (cman) utility provides user-level services for managing a
Linux cluster.

This update fixes the following bug:

• Previously, the fence_vmware_soap fence agent did not respect the "delay"

attribute, which could cause a situation where two nodes fenced each other at
the same time. With this update, the agent waits for the given amount of time as
expected, and race conditions no longer occur. (BZ#1073821)

Users of cman are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this
bug.
