Release notes for Gluster 3.12.3

This is a bugfix release. The release notes for 3.12.0, 3.12.1, 3.12.2, 3.12.3 contain a listing of all the new features that were added and bugs fixed in the GlusterFS 3.12 stable release.

Major changes, features and limitations addressed in this release

  1. The two regression related to with subdir mount got fixed - gluster volume restart failure (#1465123) - mounting gluster snapshot via fuse (#1501378)

  2. Improvements for "help" command with in gluster cli (#1509786)

  3. Introduction of new api glfs_fd_set_lkowner() to set lock owner

Major issues

  1. Expanding a gluster volume that is sharded may cause file corruption
    • Sharded volumes are typically used for VM images, if such volumes are expanded or possibly contracted (i.e add/remove bricks and rebalance) there are reports of VM images getting corrupted.
    • The last known cause for corruption #1465123 is still pending, and not yet part of this release.
