RHBA-2016:2015 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An updated metrics-hawkular-metrics container image that fixes a bug is now available for Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 3.3.

Description

Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform is the company's cloud computing Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) solution designed for on-premise or private cloud deployments.

This update fixes the following bug:

• Previously, if Hawkular Metrics was restarted while initializing its schema in Cassandra, it was unable to properly connect to Cassandra during subsequent restarts. This could occur if Hawkular Metrics was manually stopped or if the Hawkular Metrics instance was automatically restarted due to a lifecycle script timeout. This bug fix updates the metrics-hawkular-metrics image so that subsequent restarts are no longer affected in this scenario. As a result, Hawkular Metrics is able to successfully connect to Cassandra. (BZ#1377239)

This update includes the following image:

openshift3/metrics-hawkular-metrics:3.3.0-8

All OpenShift Container Platform 3 users are advised to upgrade to this updated image.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.

If you have an existing metrics deployment in your cluster, scale the
`hawkular` replication controller in the `openshift-infra` project down to
0, then scale it back up to 1 to fully apply this update:

$ oc scale --replicas=0 rc hawkular -n openshift-infra
$ oc scale --replicas=1 rc hawkular -n openshift-infra
