Readme File for: IBM
Platform Symphony
Product Release: 7.1.1
Update Name: Interim
Fix 468766
Fix ID: sym-7.1.1-build468766-ms
Publication Date: September
15, 2017
Under race conditions, when a host is removed from the IBM Platform
Symphony 7.1.1 cluster, its reclaim information is not cleaned. Later, however,
when the VEMKD tries to access the removed host’s information through the available
reclaim information, the VEMKD crashes because the host information is already
cleaned. This interim fix provides a resolution for this issue.
