1.124. piranha

An updated piranha package that fixes two bugs is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

Piranha provides high-availability and load balancing services for Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Piranha includes various tools to administer and configure the Linux Virtual Server (LVS), as well as the heartbeat and failover components.

This update fixes the following bugs:

* Prior to this update, the pulse daemon aborted unexpectedly with a segmentation fault when trying to reload if there were services without defined servers. This update restarts only running services. Now, the pulse daemon reloads as expected. (BZ#674859)

* Prior to this update, the nanny service forcibly terminated monitoring of all the remaining services as well. This update allows to disable this behavior. A new option in lvs.cf, hard_shutdown, controls this behavior. Old behavior is retained with the default setting of 1 and manual intervention is required with 0. The remaining monitors are not affected. (BZ#505172)

All Piranha users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes these bugs.
