Thanks a lot for taking care of release management, Yingchun!
+1 for releasing Kudu 1.17.0 from the 1.17.0-RC2 tag in the git repository.
I did the following to verify the functionality of the RC2 candidate on
CentOS 7.9:
* built C++ (DEBUG and RELEASE configurations) and Java parts of the
project: success
* ran the C++ tests: see below for details
* ran a smoke test scenario using the 'kudu perf loadgen' CLI tool against
a small POC cluster (RELEASE binaries): success
The only failed test scenarios were in the test suites listed below, and
all that
seems to be test-only issues so far (long startup times for the Ranger
process, etc.):
161:master_authz-itest.4
162:master_authz-itest.5
163:master_authz-itest.6
164:master_authz-itest.7
194:security-itest
I did the following to verify the functionality of the RC2 candidate on
RHEL 8.8:
* built C++ (DEBUG and RELEASE configurations) and Java parts of the
project: success
* ran the C++ tests (DEBUG): see below for details
* ran a smoke test scenario using the 'kudu perf loadgen' CLI tool against
a small POC cluster (RELEASE binaries): success
The only failed test scenarios were in the test suites listed below, and
all that
seems to be test-only issues so far (long startup times for the Ranger

161:master_authz-itest.4
162:master_authz-itest.5
163:master_authz-itest.6
164:master_authz-itest.7
173:master-stress-test.0
194:security-itest
286:subprocess_server-test
453:threadpool-test
I did the following to verify the functionality of the RC2 candidate on
Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS (focal):
* built C++ (DEBUG and RELEASE configurations) and Java parts of the
project: success
* ran the C++ tests: see below for details
* ran a smoke test scenario using the 'kudu perf loadgen' CLI tool against
a small POC cluster (RELEASE binaries): success
The only failed test scenarios were in the test suites listed below, and
all that
seems to be test-only issues so far (Ranger KMS-related issues):
194:security-itest
For the test scenarios that failed on all the platforms I tested: that are
the recently
introduced ones involving Ranger KMS. That seems to be a test-only issue
as well,
and I filed https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-3507 to track that.
I'll try
to report and probably also fix the other test-only issues reported above
when I have a chance.
Kind regards,
Alexey
