Synopsis: 2.6.18-294.26.1.el5.lve0.8.17 can now be patched using Ksplice

Systems running CloudLinux 5 can now use Ksplice to patch against the
latest CloudLinux 5 kernel update, 2.6.18-294.26.1.el5.lve0.8.17.

Note that the 2.6.18-294.26.1.el5.lve0.8.17 kernel includes several new
features, which are not available via rebootless updates.

INSTALLING THE UPDATES

We recommend that all users of Ksplice Uptrack on CloudLinux 5 install
these updates.  You can install these updates by running:

# /usr/sbin/uptrack-upgrade -y

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 additional action.


DESCRIPTION

* Fix incorrect accounting of migrated uninterruptible threads.

Under certain circumstances, uninterruptible threads could be
attributed to the wrong LVE for accounting purposes, leading to
misreported load averages inside an LVE.

SUPPORT

Ksplice support is available at support at ksplice.com or +1 765-577-5423.
