Functionality added or changed:

  • Beginning with this version, MySQL Cluster NDB 6.3.x releases once again include the InnoDB storage engine. In order to enable InnoDB, you must configure the build using --with-innodb.

Bugs fixed:

  • MySQL Cluster: Upgrades of a cluster using while a DataMemory setting in excess of 16 GB caused data nodes to fail. (Bug#34378)

  • MySQL Cluster: Performing many SQL statements on NDB tables while in AUTOCOMMIT mode caused a memory leak in mysqld. (Bug#34275)

  • MySQL Cluster: In certain rare circumstances, a race condition could occur between an aborted insert and a delete leading a data node crash. (Bug#34260)

  • MySQL Cluster: Multi-table updates using ordered indexes during handling of node failures could cause other data nodes to fail. (Bug#34216)

  • MySQL Cluster: When configured with NDB support, MySQL failed to compile using gcc 4.3 on 64bit FreeBSD systems. (Bug#34169)

  • MySQL Cluster: The failure of a DDL statement could sometimes lead to node failures when attempting to execute subsequent DDL statements. (Bug#34160)

  • MySQL Cluster: Extremely long SELECT statements (where the text of the statement was in excess of 50000 characters) against NDB tables returned empty results. (Bug#34107)

  • MySQL Cluster: Statements executing multiple inserts performed poorly on NDB tables having AUTO_INCREMENT columns. (Bug#33534)

  • MySQL Cluster: The ndb_waiter utility polled ndb_mgmd excessively when obtaining the status of cluster data nodes. (Bug#32025)

    See also Bug#32023

  • MySQL Cluster: Transaction atomicity was sometimes not preserved between reads and inserts under high loads. (Bug#31477)

  • MySQL Cluster: Having tables with a great many columns could cause Cluster backups to fail. (Bug#30172)

  • Cluster Replication: Disk Data: Statements violating unique keys on Disk Data tables (such as attempting to insert NULL into a NOT NULL column) could cause data nodes to fail. When the statement was executed from the binlog, this could also result in failure of the slave cluster. (Bug#34118)

  • Disk Data: Updating in-memory columns of one or more rows of Disk Data table, followed by deletion of these rows and re-insertion of them, caused data node failures. (Bug#33619)

  • Cluster Replication: Setting --replicate-ignore-db=mysql caused the mysql.ndb_apply_status table not to be replicated, breaking Cluster Replication. (Bug#28170)
