Release Notes for CernVM-FS 2.11.0 | ||
================================== | ||
|
||
CernVM-FS 2.11.0 is a sizeable feature release, containing a number of new features, bug fixes and performance improvements, some of which have been presented at `CHEP 2023 <https://indico.jlab.org/event/459/contributions/11483/attachments/9475/13736/presentation.pdf>`_. | ||
|
||
Highlights are: | ||
|
||
* Support for symlink kernel caching through CVMFS_CACHE_SYMLINKS (requires libfuse >= 3.16 and kernel >= 6.2-rc1) | ||
|
||
* A new reference-counted cache manager mode that reduces the number of open file descriptors with CVMFS_CACHE_REFCOUNT, and a streaming cache mode with CVMFS_STREAMING_CACHE | ||
|
||
* A bugfix for an issue that would slow down client startup when the limit for open file descriptors gets very high. | ||
|
||
* A new telemetry option to send client performance counters to influx | ||
|
||
|
||
As with previous releases, upgrading clients should be seamless just by | ||
installing the new package from the repository. As usual, we recommend updating only a few worker nodes first and gradually ramp up once the new version proves | ||
to work correctly. Please take special care when upgrading a cvmfs client in NFS mode. | ||
|
||
For Stratum 1 servers, there should be no running snapshots during the upgrade. | ||
For publisher and gateway nodes, all transactions must be closed; no active leases must be present before upgrading. | ||
|
||
Packages are available for both the x86_64 and aarch64 architectures, now also for Debian 12. Packages for Ubuntu 16.04 are no longer provided after the deprecation in 2.10.1. | ||
|
||
.. note:: The base package, cvmfs-libs, introduced in 2.10, is now used more widely as a dependency, in particular by the cvmfs client package. | ||
|
