Re: [gpfsug-discuss] [External] 5.1.2.2 changes
In the message dated: Thu, 13 Jan 2022 18:26:12 +0100, The pithy ruminations from "Hannappel, Juergen" on [[External] [gpfsug-discuss] 5.1.2.2 changes] were: => Hi, => just got notified that 5.1.2.2 is out. => What are the changes to 5.1.2.1? => https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/spectrum-scale/5.1.2?topic=summary-changes => does not specify that The change that I noticed most was: Repair functionality of mmfsck command in online mode is deprecated The repair functionality of mmfsck command in online mode is no longer available. The report-only operation still works in the online mode. While I know that mmfsck is rarely needed and has gotten much faster, deprecating the ability to do any online repairs seems like a significant regression. => => -- => Dr. Jürgen Hannappel DESY/ITTel. : +49 40 8998-4616 => ___ => gpfsug-discuss mailing list => gpfsug-discuss at spectrumscale.org => http://gpfsug.org/mailman/listinfo/gpfsug-discuss => ___ gpfsug-discuss mailing list gpfsug-discuss at spectrumscale.org http://gpfsug.org/mailman/listinfo/gpfsug-discuss
Re: [gpfsug-discuss] 5.1.2.2 changes
Try: https://public.dhe.ibm.com/storage/spectrumscale/spectrum_scale_apars_512x.html ? At least that lists the APARs resolved anyway. Given it is a PTF, I would mostly expect the changes to be APAR type fixes? And don’t forget the “What is new in 5.1.2” talk next week - https://www.spectrumscaleug.org/event/digital-user-group-jan-2022-day-1/ (sure that isn’t specific to the -2 PTF) Simon From: gpfsug-discuss-boun...@spectrumscale.org on behalf of juergen.hannap...@desy.de Date: Thursday, 13 January 2022 at 17:27 To: gpfsug main discussion list Subject: [gpfsug-discuss] 5.1.2.2 changes Hi, just got notified that 5.1.2.2 is out.
