Functionality added or changed:

  • Important Note: MySQL Cluster NDB 6.2 and 6.3 source archives are now available in separate commercial and GPL versions. Due to licensing concerns, previous MySQL Cluster NDB 6.2 and 6.3 source archives were removed from the FTP site.

Bugs fixed:

  • MySQL Cluster: In a cluster running in diskless mode and with arbitration disabled, the failure of a data node during an insert operation caused other data node to fail. (Bug#31980)

  • MySQL Cluster: An insert or update with combined range and equality constraints failed when run against an NDB table with the error Got unknown error from NDB. An example of such a statement would be UPDATE t1 SET b = 5 WHERE a IN (7,8) OR a >= 10;. (Bug#31874)

  • MySQL Cluster: An error with an if statement in sql/ha_ndbcluster.cc could potentially lead to an infinite loop in case of failure when working with AUTO_INCREMENT columns in NDB tables. (Bug#31810)

  • MySQL Cluster: The NDB storage engine code was not safe for strict-alias optimization in gcc 4.2.1. (Bug#31761)

  • MySQL Cluster: Following an upgrade, ndb_mgmd would fail with an ArbitrationError. (Bug#31690)

  • MySQL Cluster: The NDB management client command node_id REPORT MEMORY provided no output when node_id was the node ID of a management or API node. Now, when this occurs, the management client responds with Node node_id: is not a data node. (Bug#29485)

  • MySQL Cluster: Performing DELETE operations after a data node had been shut down could lead to inconsistent data following a restart of the node. (Bug#26450)

  • MySQL Cluster: UPDATE IGNORE could sometimes fail on NDB tables due to the use of unitialized data when checking for duplicate keys to be ignored. (Bug#25817)

  • Cluster Replication: A node failure during replication could lead to buckets out of order; now active subscribers are checked for, rather than empty buckets. (Bug#31701)

  • Cluster Replication: When the master mysqld crashed or was restarted, no LOST_EVENTS entry was made in the binlog. (Bug#31484)
