RHBA-2022:0315 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated glusterfs packages that fix several bugs are now available for Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.5 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.

Description

Red Hat Gluster Storage is software only scale-out storage solution that
provides flexible and affordable unstructured data storage. It unifies data
storage and infrastructure, increases performance, and improves
availability and manageability to meet enterprise-level storage challenges.

Bug fix(es):

• Previously, granular entry self heal took more time than the full entry self heal when there were many entry self heals pending due to the creation and deletion heavy workloads. With this update, the extra lookup to delete the stale index is removed from the code path of the granular entry self heal, which improves the heal performance in the creation and deletion heavy workloads when the granular entry self heal is enabled. (BZ#1994593)

Users of glusterfs with Red Hat Gluster Storage are advised to upgrade to these updated packages.
