Synopsis
ricci bug fix and enhancement update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated ricci packages that fix several bugs and add one enhancement are now
available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
Description
The ricci packages contain a daemon and a client for remote configuring and
managing of clusters.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- Previously, the luci application server and the ccs cluster configuration
command in some cases displayed incorrect information about certain aspects of
the cluster, such as the daemon status or specific management tasks. With this
update, replies to clients' requests against service modules included with the
ricci daemon are composed correctly again. As a result, luci and ccs now provide
correct information about the cluster. (BZ#1187745)
- Previously, using the rgmanager utility to disable guest virtual machines
(VMs) forced the guests off after 2 minutes. However, when Microsoft Windows
guests download system upgrades, they install them during operating system (OS)
shutdown. Consequently, if rgmanager forced the Windows guest off during this
process, the guest OS could be damaged or destroyed. This update gives the
server more time to shut down, and the guest OS can now safely install updates
before the shutdown. (BZ#1079032)
- Prior to this update, the ricci daemon accepted deprecated and insecure SSLv2
connections, which could lead to security issues. With his update, SSLv2
connections are refused, thus fixing this bug. (BZ#1156157)
- Once authenticated, the ccs utility previously ignored any attempts to
re-authenticate. Consequently, the user attempting to re-authenticate with a
password did not get an error message even if they used an incorrect password.
With this update, ccs verifies the password even if it is already authenticated
by ricci, and if the password is not valid, ccs returns an error. (BZ#1084991)
- Prior to this update, the ccs utility did not properly ignore the SIGPIPE
signal. When piping the output of ccs into another program, a traceback could
occur if the other program closed the pipe before the ccs process was resolved.
Now, ccs properly ignores SIGPIPE, and ccs no longer issues a traceback in the
described situation. (BZ#1125954)
- Previously, the ccs utility did not properly handle comments in the
cluster.conf file if they were located in the services section. As a
consequence, tracebacks could occur in ccs when listing services. With this
update, ccs ignores any comments in the services or resources sections of
cluster.conf instead of trying to parse them, thus fixing this bug. (BZ#1126872)
- The ccs utility did not prevent multiple syncs or activations from executing
in one ccs command. Consequently, it was possible to issue a command using
multiple options that caused multiple syncs and activations. This update allows
only one sync or activation per command, thus fixing this bug. (BZ#1166589)
In addition, this update adds the following enhancement:
- The cluster schema in the ricci packages, used by the ccs utility for offline
validation, has been updated. This update includes new options in resource and
fence agents packages, and in the rgmanager utility and fenced cluster daemons.
(BZ#1210679)
Users of ricci are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these
bugs and add this enhancement.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
