rear bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated rear packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Description

Relax-and-Recover is a recovery and system migration utility. The utility produces a bootable image and restores from backup using this image. It also allows to restore to different hardware and can therefore be used as a migration utility as well.

This update fixes the following bug:

• Previously, Relax-and-Recover (ReaR) did not include the backup archive in the rescue CD ISO image when run on the IBM Power Systems architecture. As a consequence, rescue CDs could not be used for restoring the system when the internal backup method was used. The backup archive is now included in the ISO image and rescue CDs are usable. (BZ#1596182)
  

Users of rear are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.
