Comment 5 Atin Mukherjee 2016-08-29 13:00:27 UTC
Could you explain why is this BZ related to Gluster and more specifically GlusterD? A more detailed explanation would help us in identifying the scope of this request.

Comment 6 Bipin Kunal 2016-08-29 13:34:48 UTC
This BZ has nothing to do directly with Gluster. As we have RHEL as base, all the product based on RHEL and using tzdata would be affected. 

Mostly we recommend to use NTP server for syncing time and we do not recommend to be dependent on tzdata package so there is very less likely that Glusterfs deployment is vulnerable to this. Fixing the issue on ntp server will fix  issue here as well.

This BZ has been opened in order to track all the effort being taken in order to fix leap second issue.

Comment 7 Bipin Kunal 2016-09-28 07:01:39 UTC
Removed customer case 01710247 as the issue was reported for pure RHEL.
