Important

This release is no longer available for download. It was removed due to a dependency on a version of the server which is also no longer available for download. See MySQL 8.0.38 Release Notes. Please upgrade to MySQL Cluster Manager 8.0.39 instead.

Version 8.0.38 is the latest General Availability release of the 8.0 series of MySQL Cluster Manager. It is suitable for use with MySQL NDB Cluster 8.0, 7.6, and 7.5.

Bugs Fixed

• Client: MySQL Cluster Manager did not handle correctly the version information for some cluster parameters' introduction or removal, so that it was sometimes confused with the availability of those parameters for a cluster. (Bug #36647522)

• Client: mcm did not issue a deprecation warning when the deprecated validate_password plugin was being used for mysqld connections. (Bug #36589037)

• Client: When ndb_restore failed, the error message did not give much information. With this patch, a more informative message is given in the situation. (Bug #36388952)

• Client: The format of the mysqld XML configuration file (mcm-installation-dir/var/mysqld_8.0.xml) has been updated to better organize the configuration information. (Bug #36298214)

• Certain restrictions for upgrading and downgrading on MySQL Cluster Manager have been removed. Please refer to Upgrading and Downgrading NDB Cluster for valid upgrade and downgrade paths for MySQL NDB Cluster and MySQL Cluster Manager. (Bug #36610348, Bug #36720575)
