[Ksplice][Virtuozzo 4.7 Updates] New updates available via Ksplice (2.6.32-042stab079.5)

[Jamie Iles]

Synopsis: 2.6.32-042stab079.5 can now be patched using Ksplice

Systems running Virtuozzo 4.7 or the OpenVZ RHEL 6 kernel can now use
Ksplice to patch against the latest Parallels Virtuozzo Containers 4.7
kernel security update, 2.6.32-042stab079.5.

INSTALLING THE UPDATES

We recommend that all users of Ksplice Uptrack on Virtuozzo 4.7 or
OpenVZ on RHEL 6 install these updates.

On systems that have "autoinstall = yes" in /etc/uptrack/uptrack.conf,
these updates will be installed automatically and you do not need to
take any action.

Alternatively, you can install these updates by running:

# /usr/sbin/uptrack-upgrade -y


DESCRIPTION

* Incorrect load average calculation on checkpoint+restore.

Incorrect restoration of a task flag would result in a system reporting
a load average of 0 after a checkpoint+restore operation.
