RHBA-2014:1946 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated vdsm packages are now available.

Description

VDSM is a management module that serves as a Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization
Manager agent on Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor or Red Hat
Enterprise Linux hosts.

Changes to the vdsm component:

• The issue_lip operation introduced in RHEV 3.4.3 to fix a failure to discover

new LUNs on Fibre Channel regression introduced in RHEV 3.4.0 has been found to
be disruptive on some storage servers and caused storage connection issues.
Domains became inaccessible on random occasions. With this update, the issue_lip
operation is disabled by default. As a result, discovering new LUNs on Fibre
Channel storage server is not supported by default. Users can enable this option
through new vdsm configuration (hba_rescan) if this option is compatible with
the storage server. A future RHEV version will support discovering new LUNs by
default. (BZ#1157681)
