Our RHEL4 AS up2date is reporting that there is a new kernel release from 2.6.9-42.0.10.ELsmp to:

kernel-smp                              2.6.9          55.EL             x86_64

...but no mention of dependencies from the GFS/CS channel.  My understanding is that the GFS/CS kernel modules need to match the kernel release.  So does this mean it is still safe to update without breaking GFS/CS?

Current packages are:

# rpm -q ccs cman dlm fence GFS rgmanager
ccs-1.0.7-0
cman-1.0.11-0
dlm-1.0.1-1
fence-1.32.25-1
GFS-6.1.6-1
rgmanager-1.9.54-1

Any advice is appreciated, thanks.
