5.1. Tungsten Replicator 7.2.1 GA (Not Yet Released)

Version End of Life. Not Yet Set

Release 7.2.1 coming soon.

Behavior Changes

The following changes have been made to Tungsten Replicator and may affect existing scripts and integration tools. Any scripts or environment which make use of these tools should check and update for the new configuration:

  • Installation and Deployment

  • Command-line Tools

    • The tprovision command no longer requires the external tool tungsten_get_mysql_datadir.

      Additionally, the tool has been significantly re-factored for greater stability, performance and functionality.

      Issues: CT-2597

Improvements, new features and functionality

  • Command-line Tools

    • New Feature: tpm ini upgrade --ini {fullpath} will display all changes to the specified INI file that would be performed by the tpm update commands during a version upgrade. Adding the --write argument would apply the changes to the specified file as well.

      Issues: CT-2601

    • New tpm flag --add-ssl now allows to force generate certificates when doing an upgrade. This allows configurations with security disabled to be upgraded to 8.0.1 AND switched to using SSL/TLS communications at the same time. Example:

      shell> tools/tpm update --replace-release --add-ssl

      Issues: CT-2619

Bug Fixes

  • Command-line Tools

    • The tungsten_send_diag now uses AWS Signature Version 4 to upload files.

      Issues: CT-2589

    • The tpm cert gen command now works during version upgrades when a security configuration file may not have existed before (passwords.store).

      Issues: CT-2618

  • Core Replicator

    • Fixed an issue where timestamp columns would not match between source and target when using the privileged-slave=false property to replicate from a source database using MIXED binlog mode.
