RHBA-2017:3284 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated packages that resolve various issues are now available for Red Hat
OpenStack Platform 8.0 (Liberty) for RHEL 7.

Description

Red Hat OpenStack Platform provides the facilities for building a private
or public infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) cloud running on commonly
available physical hardware.

This update addresses the following issue:

• There is a race condition within the Python os.path.realpath method which raises an unexpected exception. This can cause an iSCSI disconnect method to unexpectedly fail.

With this update, the race condition exception is ignored. Since the symlink no longer exists, it is safe to ignore this exception. As a result, the disconnect operation succeeds, even when the race condition occurs.

Solution

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

Red Hat OpenStack Platform 8 runs on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.4.

The Red Hat OpenStack Platform 8 Release Notes contain the following:

• An explanation of the way in which the provided components interact to

form a working cloud computing environment.

• Technology Previews, Recommended Practices, and Known Issues.
• The channels required for Red Hat OpenStack Platform 8, including which

channels need to be enabled and disabled.
