After finishing up a busy end of 2009, it’s time to catch up on some over due blog posts.

Recently, one of my clients discovered that SRM 4.0 has an issue editing the /etc/hosts file during DR failover of Linux VMs.  The result of the issue was the /etc/host file not being edited with the updated localhost entry as part of the failover process.

Good news is that the issue has been correct and should be rolled into the next point release of SRM.  If you are using SRM for Linux VM DR, keep watch for this update.
