-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2012-8203 2012-05-22 01:50:00 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : mdadm Product : Fedora 16 Version : 3.2.5 Release : 1.fc16 URL : http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/ Summary : The mdadm program controls Linux md devices (software RAID arrays) Description : The mdadm program is used to create, manage, and monitor Linux MD (software RAID) devices. As such, it provides similar functionality to the raidtools package. However, mdadm is a single program, and it can perform almost all functions without a configuration file, though a configuration file can be used to help with some common tasks. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This is an update to the mdadm package, based on the latest upstream release, mdadm-3.2.5, which fixes a large number of bugs. Bugs fixed include: - Fix bug in the upstream mdadm-3.2.4 release where --add would fail in common situations. - Fix Monitor mode sometimes crashes when a resync completes - Fix missing symlink for mdadm container device when incremental creates the array - Make sure when creating a second array in a container that the second array uses all available space since leaving space for a third array is invalid - Validate the number of imsm volumes per controller - Fix issues with imsm arrays and disks larger than 2TB - Add support for expanding imsm arrays/containers - The support for expanding imsm arrays/containers was accepted upstream, update to the official patches from there - Fix for the issue of --add not being very smart - Fix an issue causing rebuilds to fail to restart on reboot (data corrupter level problem) - Reset the bad flag on map file updates - Correctly fix failure when trying to add internal bitmap to 1.0 arrays - Fix bug where IMSM arrays stay inactive in case a reboot is performed during the reshape process. - Fix issue when re-adding drive to a raid1 array with bitmap - Fix bug in the handling of raid arrays using a bitmap, preventing the automatic re-add to the array of a temporarily disconnected drive. All users of mdadm RAIDs are encouraged to upgrade. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon May 21 2012 Jes Sorensen <[email protected]> - 3.2.5-1 -
