fedora
Calendar Grey November 1, 2017
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Essential glusterfs patch for Fedora 25 resolves severe null reference vulnerability. Update advised for enhanced protection.
3.10.6 bz #1504256

Summary

GlusterFS is a distributed file-system capable of scaling to several

petabytes. It aggregates various storage bricks over Infiniband RDMA

or TCP/IP interconnect into one large parallel network file

system. GlusterFS is one of the most sophisticated file systems in

terms of features and extensibility. It borrows a powerful concept

called Translators from GNU Hurd kernel. Much of the code in GlusterFS

is in user space and easily manageable.

This package includes the glusterfs binary, the glusterfsd daemon and the

libglusterfs and glusterfs translator modules common to both GlusterFS server

and client framework.
