Update History

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 & 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 & 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.
