RHBA-2016:0076 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated Satellite 6.1 packages that fix several bugs are now available.

Description

Red Hat Satellite is a system management solution that allows organizations to configure and maintain their systems without the necessity to provide public Internet access to their servers or other client systems. It performs provisioning and configuration management of predefined standard operating environments.

This update fixes the following bugs:

• Previously, the Qpid proton reactor class did not abort internal pipes correctly when a connection was reset. During reconnect, the reactor thread

occasionally entered an infinite loop, causing high CPU consumption. The internal pipes are now properly closed and the high CPU consumption no longer occurs on reconnect. (BZ#1301103)

• Additional logging information has been added to foreman-debug to improve response time for debugging Qpid errors. (BZ#1300774)
• Previously, automated repository synchronizations were failing for customers who updated to Red Hat Satellite 6.1.6 with the error "TypeError: can't convert String into Integer". The synchronization logic has now been updated to work for both manual and automated synchronization. (BZ#1301909)

Users of Red Hat Satellite are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.
