Version End of Life. 31 July 2020
Release 5.3.1 is a bug fix release that adds support for the GEOMETRY data type in MySQL 5.7 and above, and a number of bug fixes.
The following issues are known within this release but not considered critical, nor impact the operation of Tungsten Cluster. They will be addressed in a subsequent patch release.
It was previously impossible to change from a non-SSL installation to an SSL installation using self-generated certificates if an INI style configuration was being used. This can now be achieved by using the following command-line:
shell>tools/tpm update --replace-release --replace-jgroups-certificate --replace-tls-certificate
Issues: CT-442
Previously the system had been configured to dump heap files by default when the system ran out of memory which was useful for debugging by the development team. This has now been disabled.
Issues: CT-604
Tungsten Clustering 5.3.1 Includes the following changes made in Tungsten Replicator 5.3.1
Release 5.3.1 is a bug fix release that adds support for the GEOMETRY data type in MySQL 5.7 and above, and a number of bug fixes.
Support for the
GEOMETRY
data type within MySQL 5.7 and above has been added. This provides full support for both extracting and applying of the datatype to MySQL.This change is not backwards compatible; when upgrading, you should upgrade Replicas first and then the Primary to ensure compatibility. Once you have extracted data with the GEOMETRY type into THL, the THL will no longer be compatible with any version of the replicator that does not support the GEOMETRY datatype.
Issues: CT-403
