I'd like to call out some important bug fixes and features in the Hypertable 0.9.7.12 release:
*Bug Fixes* *Commit log file removal bug* - There was a bug in the commit log file removal logic that would cause it to get stuck and not remove commit log files. This bug manifested itself mostly after a failover. We recommend that you upgrade to 0.9.7.12 as soon as possible so that the commit log does not grow to such a large size that the system cannot be restarted. If after upgrading, you find that your system won't come up due to this problem, send me an email and we'll help you work through it. *Scanner leak in ThriftBroker* - With the recent change to the ThriftBroker that automatically deallocates un-closed objects on session termination, we introduced a scanner leak in some of the get_cells* APIs. This would cause the ThriftBroker to consume a growing amount of memory over time and the Linux out-of-memory killer would eventually kill the process. This leak has been fixed in 0.9.7.12. *Features* *ALTER TABLE MODIFY* - You can now modify the TTL and MAX_VERSIONS options to columns with the ALTER TABLE command. See the ALTER TABLE documentation<http://hypertable.com/documentation/reference_manual/hql#alter-table>for more details. - Doug -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hypertable Development" group.
