As we ring in the new year, we also ring in a new release – GlusterFS
3.4.2, available at your local download
server<http://www.gluster.org/download>!
This is a maintenance release, fixing a few bugs, which you can read
in the release
notes<https://forge.gluster.org/gluster-docs-project/pages/GlusterFS_342_Release_Notes>
.

Download the new release: http://gluster.org/download

In addition to bug fixes, you’ll notice that we’re welcoming a new
distribution to the Gluster Community:
OpenSuSE<http://download.gluster.org/pub/gluster/glusterfs/3.4/3.4.2/OpenSuSE13.1/>and
SLES<http://download.gluster.org/pub/gluster/glusterfs/3.4/3.4.2/SLES11sp3/>.
We hope our SuSE friends will try them and let us know how it goes. If
you’re counting at home, that brings the number of supported platforms to
*9* on the client and server (NetBSD packages aren’t on the download
server, because its users get updated GlusterFS builds via
pkgsrc<http://pkgsrc.se/filesystems/glusterfs>
).

The most notable bug fixes/changes:

   - Libgfapi support for Ganesha NFS integration
   <https://github.com/nfs-ganesha/nfs-ganesha/wiki/ReleaseNotes_2.0#wiki-GLUSTER>
   - Updating extras/Ubuntu with latest upstart configs (BUG:
1047007<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1047007>
   )
   - gfapi.py: support dynamic loading of versioned libraries
   - cluster/dht: Ignore ENOENT errors for unlink of linkfiles
   - cli: Throw a warning during replace-brick
   - mgmt/glusterd: Fix a memory leak in glusterd_is_local_addr()
   - glusterd: submit RPC requests without holding big lock
   - protocol/client: handle network disconnect/reconnect properly
   - gfapi: use native STACK_WIND for read _async() calls
   - mgmt/glusterd: add option to specify a different base-port
   - Disable eager-locks on NetBSD for 3.4 branch
