Alert related to sysadmins managing TSM/DB2 servers and those responsible for applying security patches, in particular kernel 3.10.0-1160.36.2.el7.x86_64, despite security concerns raised by CVE-2021-33909:
Please hold off on upgrading your RedHat systems (possibly centos too). I just found out the hard way that kernel 3.10.0-1160.36.2.el7.x86_64 is not compatible with DB2, and after the node reboot DB2 would not work anymore, not only on TSM, but neither on HPSS. I had to revert the kernel to 3.10.0-1062.18.1.el7.x86_64 to get DB2 working properly again. --- Jaime Pinto - Storage Analyst SciNet HPC Consortium - Compute/Calcul Canada www.scinet.utoronto.ca - www.computecanada.ca University of Toronto 661 University Ave. (MaRS), Suite 1140 Toronto, ON, M5G1M1 P: 416-978-2755 C: 416-505-1477 _______________________________________________ gpfsug-discuss mailing list gpfsug-discuss at spectrumscale.org http://gpfsug.org/mailman/listinfo/gpfsug-discuss
