Hi all,

We are pleased to announce the release of

* Gfarm file system version 2.7.6
* Gfarm file system version 2.6.21

http://sourceforge.net/projects/gfarm/

This release includes useful updates and bug fixes.

We recommend for all users to upgrade to this version.

Release note for Gfarm 2.7.6
============================

[2017.10.1]

New configuration directive
* replication_busy_host – specify whether destinations of
gfmd-initiated replication include busy hosts or not. Default is
enable. Note that file replica creation to busy file system nodes
is disabled since 2.7.2. To keep this behavior, specify
replication_busy_host disable
* replica_check_remove_grace_used_space_ratio,
replica_check_remove_grace_time – specify grace space ratio and
grace time for replica check remove
* spool_check_parallel, spool_check_parallel_max,
spool_check_parallel_per_capacity, spool_check_parallel_step –
specifies the number of parallelism and granularity of spool check

Updated feature
* gfsd – parallel spool check for faster spool check processing
* gfmd – gfmd-initiated replication selects a file replica to be
replicated randomly to avoid concentration
* gfmd – more rigit disk available check to avoid no space error
* gfrepcheck – gfrepcheck stop stops replica check processing
soon.
