Hi, it is a long time since the release of drbd-9.0.0. Many bugs have been fixed, just as expected for the first maintenance release after a .0 release. On the feature side, the support for multiple paths was completed. I.e. you can configure multiple address pairs, and the TCP transport will try all of those until it can establish a connection on one of the pairs. Apart from that the new features of 8.4.7 are merged. (WRITE_SAME, resync of thinly provisioned storage) For those who already run 9.0.0 please upgrade to 9.0.1 as soon as possible. And a BIG THANK YOU, to the members of the community that reported bugs and regressions of 9.0.0. drbd 9.0.1-1 (api:genl2/proto:86-111/transport:14) -------- * Fix ahead/behind mode: spinlock deadlock when entering and resync afterwards * Fix crash in online verify * Fix crash when receiving pages on a diskless node * Fix issues with resize when more than two nodes are present * Many minor fixes * Work on the multi-path support; the TCP transport now tries all paths while connecting, afterwards it uses one path * The RDMA transport supports multiple paths and can use them in parallel * Configuration option to make resync thinly provisioned storage friendly: rs-discard-granularity * Make sure it compiles with Linux 4.4 * Merge changes from the 8.4.7 release * Fix a performance regression of 8.4.0; it got worse with bigger devices; really significant above 1TByte http://oss.linbit.com/drbd/9.0/drbd-9.0.1-1.tar.gz http://git.drbd.org/drbd-9.0.git/tag/refs/tags/drbd-9.0.1 drbd-utils 8.9.6 -------- * Call "drbdsetup resize" only as often as necessary on "drbdadm resize" * Disconnect connection first on single path deletion from connection * Add unfence-peer handler * Fix "drbdadm adjust" for proxy configurations http://oss.linbit.com/drbd/drbd-utils-8.9.6.tar.gz http://git.drbd.org/drbd-utils.git/tag/refs/tags/v8.9.6 cheers, Phil
