Hi, This time we have a pretty short change log, but some of those short lines have a lot of work in them. DRBD now scales to petabyte devices (on 64 bit platforms)! The other big change is the introduction of the Ahead/Behind mode. It is intended for setups where it is more important to have low IO latencies that an up-to-date mirror. This can be important for long distance replication. Please note: This is a release candidate, not intended for production. Please help with testing! 8.3.10rc1 (api:88/proto:86-96) -------- * Fixed a subtle performance degradation that might affected synchronous work loads (databases) (introduced in 8.3.9) * Fixed a locking regression (introduced in 8.3.9) * Fixed on-no-data-accessible for Primary, SyncTarget nodes (Bugz 332) * Progress bar for online verify * Optionally use the resync speed control loop code for the online verify process as well * Added code to detect false positives when using data-integrity-alg * New config option on-congestion and new connection states ahead and behind * Reduced IO latencies during resync, bitmap exchange and temporal states * Only build a single kernel module package on distributions that provide the infrastructure to have kernel version independent modules * On 64bit architectures allow device sizes up to one petabyte http://oss.linbit.com/drbd/8.3/drbd-8.3.10rc1.tar.gz http://git.drbd.org/?p=drbd-8.3.git;a=commit;h=drbd-8.3.10rc1 Best, Phil -- : Dipl-Ing Philipp Reisner : LINBIT | Your Way to High Availability : Tel: +43-1-8178292-50, Fax: +43-1-8178292-82 : http://www.linbit.com DRBD(R) and LINBIT(R) are registered trademarks of LINBIT, Austria.
