    An update that contains security fixes can now be installed. It includes one version update.

    Description:

    The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 Service Pack 2 kernel was
    updated to fix a regression introduced by the last update.

    Regression fix:
    - scsi_dh_alua: Incorrect reference counting in the SCSI
    ALUA initialization code lead to system crashes on boot
    (bnc#858831).

    As the update introducing the regression was marked
    security, this is also marked security even though this bug
    is not security relevant.

    Indications:

    Everyone using the Linux Kernel on x86_64 architecture should update.

    Special Instructions and Notes:

    Please reboot the system after installing this update.
