Description Tom Coughlan 2005-08-12 21:57:47 UTC
EMC requests this for U6, because it is for a new product that will ship before
U7 comes out. 

The patch is a simple addition to the SCSI whitelist. There is virtually no
risk. Without the patch customers who install the Invista hardware on a SAN must
ensure that the all the RHEL 3 systems see LUNs that are numbered sequentially
starting with zero. This is difficult in a large shared SAN environment. RHEL 3
does not offer a run-time workaround for this (as RHEL 4 does). 

Maybe this falls under the "addressing committed hardware support" criteria for
post-beta checkins, since this will ship during U6?  It is extremely low risk
and will not invalidate any beta testing.

Very Low risk / high return.

Comment 3 Ernie Petrides 2005-08-19 22:01:57 UTC
A fix for this problem has just been committed to the RHEL3 U6
patch pool this evening (in kernel version 2.4.21-35.EL).
