MySQL NDB Cluster 7.2 Release Notes

40.30 Changes in MySQL NDB Cluster 7.2.3 (5.5.17-ndb-7.2.3) (Not released)

Functionality Added or Changed

  • Added the ThreadConfig data node configuration parameter to enable control of multiple threads and CPUs when using ndbmtd, by assigning threads of one or more specified types to execute on one or more CPUs. This can provide more precise and flexible control over multiple threads than can be obtained using the LockExecuteThreadToCPU parameter. (Bug #11795581)

Bugs Fixed

  • Added the MinFreePct data node configuration parameter, which specifies a percentage of data node resources to hold in reserve for restarts. The resources monitored are DataMemory, IndexMemory, and any per-table MAX_ROWS settings (see CREATE TABLE Statement). The default value of MinFreePct is 5, which means that 5% from each these resources is now set aside for restarts. (Bug #13436216)

  • Issuing TRUNCATE TABLE on mysql.user, mysql.host, mysql.db, mysql.tables_priv, mysql.proxies_priv, or mysql.procs_priv, when these tables had been converted to MySQL NDB Cluster distributed grant tables, caused mysqld to crash. (Bug #13346955)

  • Restarting an SQL node configured for distributed grants could sometimes result in a crash. (Bug #13340819)

  • Previously, forcing simultaneously the shutdown of multiple data nodes using SHUTDOWN -F in the ndb_mgm management client could cause the entire cluster to fail. Now in such cases, any such nodes are forced to abort immediately. (Bug #12928429)
