<summary>Recommended update for sapconf</summary>
<description>This update for sapconf fixes the following issues:
- Check the values of the 'vm.dirty_*' settings to be in a valid range before activating or restoring these system values. (bsc#1168067)
- Add a logrotate drop-in file for sapconf to control the size of the logfile. (bsc#1166925)
- Implement and use the system wide security limits. (bsc#1168840)
- Add support multi-queued scheduler for block devices. (jsc#SLE-11141, jsc#SLE-11144)
- Remove usage of tuned from sapconf (jsc#SLE-10986, jsc#SLE-10989):
- Only ONE configuration file for sapconf
- All parameters of the tuned profile defined in tuned.conf sapconf
- Implement Switching a sapconf profile.
- Prevent sapconf related tuned error messages by turning off tuned in the preinstall phase and removing the 'active' sapconf profile.
- If sapconf detects an improper tuned profile during start notes that the log, fails the start deliberatly and guides the administrator to the problem. (bsc#1139176)
- Use absolute path in the configuration file. (bsc#1124453)
- Replace the delimiter for a sed command in postinstall script, because of conflicts with rpm macros. (bsc#1150868, bsc#1150870)
