As a consequence, when run under Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4, running this command returned no
information and the luci front-end did not provide an "Add a virtual machine service" option to Services
in the Cluster tab for clusters that were expected to offer such services. With this update, ricci now
runs a "virsh nodeinfo --readonly" command, in line with the changed behavior, and the web-based
front end will provide options to add virtual machine services as expected.
All conga users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve this issue.
1.22.2. RHBA-2010:0289: bug fix and enhancement update
Updated Conga packages that fix numerous bugs (including a regression introduced between Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.3 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4) and add the ability to reset user passwords
when logged in to luci as an administrator are now available.
The Conga project is a management system for remote workstations. It consists of luci, which is a
secure web-based front-end, and ricci, which is a secure daemon that dispatches incoming messages
to underlying management modules.
This update applies the following bug fixes:
* The behavior of the virsh command changed between Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3 and Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.4. In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4, non-root users must add a "--read-only" flag
to virsh commands. The ricci component runs the "virsh nodeinfo" command to determine whether a
node can host a Virtual Machine service and it does so as a non-root user. As a consequence, when
run under Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4, the "virsh nodeinfo" command returned no information and
luci did not provide an "Add a virtual machine service" option to Services in the Cluster tab for clusters
that were expected to offer such services. With this update, ricci now runs a "virsh nodeinfo --readonly"
command in line with the changed behavior, and luci provides options to add Virtual Machine services
as expected.
(BZ#519252
* luci failed to start.
(BZ#469881
* Conga doesn't run with SELinux.
* Conga does not add the name of the managed system when adding an "LPAR Fencing" fence
device to a node.
(BZ#508142
* fs resource will remount itself if any configuration changes are made to cluster.conf.
* luci does not validate passwords and incorrect characters can be used.
* previously, the shebang lines in luci's python executables pointed to "/usr/bin/env python" rather than
explicitly referencing the version of Python installed on the system. This broke those executables in
the case where a user was installing an alternative Python version. With this update, all shebang lines
point explicitly to the system version at /usr/bin/python.
* Conga does not properly handle HA LVM types.
