3.90. sysstat
Updated sysstat packages that fix several bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
The sysstat packages provide a set of utilities which enable system monitoring of disks, network, and other I/O activity.
Bug Fixes
- BZ#804890, BZ#885571
- Previously, the sysstat packages did not support dynamically attributed major device numbers. Consequently, devices with these numbers were not listed in sar reports under their real names. With this update, support for dynamically attributed major device numbers has been added to sysstat. As a result, all devices now appear with their correct names in sar reports.
- BZ#837238
- Previously, the "sar -dp" command did not translate device-mapper device names. As a consequence, block devices under device-mapper were listed as "nodev" instead of their proper names. The underlying source has been modified to fix this bug and the devices are now displayed with the proper names as expected.
Users of sysstat are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs.
