RHBA-2014:1582 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated clustermon packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The clustermon packages are used for remote cluster management. The modclusterd
service provides an abstraction of cluster status used by the Conga architecture
and by the Simple Network Management (SNMP) and Common Information Model (CIM)
modules of clustermon.

This update fixes the following bug:

• Previously, the modcluster service mishandled requests with size in bytes

divisible by 4096, which is the size of the read buffer in bytes. Consequently,
modcluster incorrectly evaluated such requests as errors. This bug has been
fixed, and modcluster now processes all requests as expected. (BZ#1076716)

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

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
