  Issue: CT-892

Bug Fixes (5)

Command-line Tools (3)

• If using tungsten_provision_slave to restore a previously failed Primary node, the provision could fail to recover the node.
  Issue: CT-1468
• Replaced md5 hashing to sha256 within tpm to fix issues where tpm install would fail on FIPS enabled environments.
  Issue: CT-1451
• If using mysqldump as your preferred choice of backup method, Stored Procedures and Functions would not be included in the generated dump file when using tungsten_provision_slave.
  Issue: CT-1339

Core Replicator (2)

• If SSL is enabled between replicators for THL Transfer, and a source node fails and becomes unresponsive, or is slow/overloaded, the replicator on the replica can fail to go offline due to a timeout, remaining in a GOING-ONLINE:SYNCHRONIZING state.

  In a clustering environment, this can prevent failovers occurring due to the manager waiting for the replicator which is stuck in a timeout loop.

  Issue: CT-1459

• A new mapcharset filter is included, which fixes collation incompatibilities when replicating from MySQL 8 to an older release (5.7 or 5.6)

  This new filter should be enabled within any MySQL applier where the source is generated from a MySQL 8 database and the target is MySQL 5.7 or lower.
