Fixed In Version: rear-2.00-5.el7_4
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, two problems in the startup procedure of the rescue system caused the Relax-and-Recover restore process to fail when using the NetBackup method. The system's init scripts were sourced instead of executed when used by used by Relax-and-Recover. As a consequence, the NetBackup init script aborted the whole system-setup process. Additionally, processes created by the system setup were immediately terminated. This affected the "dhclient" tool, too, and in some cases caused an IP address conflict. With this update, both bugs have been fixed. As a result, Relax-and-Recover works properly with the NetBackup method, and network configuration using DHCP is more reliable.
