Hello,
We have released a new hotfix, hf2814, which resolves a defect that can make a grid unresponsive and cause full grid restart in rare cases while copying or importing an application or volumes to the grid.
Due to the possible impact, we recommend that hf2814 is installed immediately on all grids. The good news is that the hotfix can be installed without disrupting the grid's operation.
hf2814 is available for AppLogic 2.4.8 and for AppLogic 2.4.7. Installing the hotfix on AppLogic 2.4.7 requires that hf2761 is already installed (AppLogic 2.4.8 already has all fixes provided in hf2761 so this requirement does not apply).
A quick summary of hotfixes available for AppLogic 2.4.8:
hf2794* - Resolves issue with comp start/restart incorrectly failing because of insufficient resources. Also, updates grids not to resend metering report every minute when the initial metering report has failed. This hotfix can be applied without disrupting grid's operation. This hotfix is MANDATORY and should be installed on all grids running AppLogic 2.4.8 to ensure proper operation.
hf2814* - Resolves issue with grids rebooting under heavy block I/O on the grid controller. This hotfix can be applied without disrupting grid's operation. This hotfix is MANDATORY and should be installed on all grids running AppLogic 2.4.8 to ensure proper operation.
hf2668 - enables bandwidth oversubscription (appliances may use more bandwidth than their configured bandwidth). Requires full grid reboot on initial install, and server reboot on new servers, when applied for servers added to the grid. This hotfix is optional.
e2772 - Enable Windows support for AppLogic 2.4.8 grids. This hotfix can be installed without disrupting the grid's operation. The hotfix adds third-party products that require additional license fees -- please contact your provider for details.
e2804 - Resolves issue with grid controller being inaccessible when running on servers with the Intel 82575EB NIC. This hotfix must be installed over the AppLogic release image prior to trying to install AppLogic on servers using these NICs (and should not be used in any other cases).
e2441 - Add support for Xsigo I/O director VNICs (Infiniband)
* denotes mandatory hotfixes
