[gpfsug-discuss] FYI, Spectrum Scale 5.0.1 is out

[Buterbaugh, Kevin L]

On the other hand, we are very excited by this (from the README):

        File systems: Traditional NSD nodes and servers can use checksums
            NSD clients and servers that are configured with IBM Spectrum Scale can use checksums
            to verify data integrity and detect network corruption of file data that the client
            reads from or writes to the NSD server. For more information, see the
            nsdCksumTraditional and nsdDumpBuffersOnCksumError attributes in the topic mmchconfig command.


Finally!  Thanks, IBM (seriously)…

Kevin

I’d normally be excited by this, since we do aggressively apply GPFS upgrades.  But it’s worth noting that no released version of Scale works with the latest RHEL7 kernel yet (anything >= 3.10.0-780). So if you’re also in the habit of aggressively upgrading RedHat then you’re going to have to wait for 5.0.1-1 before you can resume that practice.
