Description:

This update for saptune fixes the following issues:

  • Add function 'delete' and 'rename' to the 'note' operation to manipulate a customer or vendor specific note, with confirmation. (jsc#SLE-9283)
  • Inform the customer that the command 'saptune note customise [NoteID]' does not apply changes immediately but writes the changes into a configuration file that can be applied in a second step. (bsc#1142467)
  • Add warning to man page, not to rename/remove/modify active configurations. (bsc#1149002)
  • Implement support of multi-queue I/O scheduler for block devices. (bsc#1152598)
  • Add missing search pattern to the update helper script to find all old and superfluous notes during upgrade from SLE12 to SLE15. (bsc#1142526)
  • If a parameter is not supported by the system, the note action 'verify' will no longer report this as an error even if the value is not compliant. (bsc#1159671)
