Many thanks to everyone how tested the glusterfs-3.5.1 beta releases and
gave feedback. There were no regressions reported compared to the 3.5.0
release.
Many bugs have been fixed, and documentation for all new features in 3.5
should be included now. Thanks to all the reporters, developers and
testers for improving the 3.5 stable series.
Below you will find the release notes in MarkDown format for
glusterfs-3.5.1, these are included in the tar.gz as
doc/release-notes/3.5.1.md. The mirror repository on GitHub provides
a nicely rendered version:
- https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/blob/v3.5.1/doc/release-notes/3.5.1.md
Packages for different Linux distributions will follow shortly.
Notifications are normally sent to this list when the packages are
available for download, and/or have reached the distributions update
infrastructure.
Changes for a new 3.5.2 release are now being accepted. The list of
proposed fixes is already growing:

## Release Notes for GlusterFS 3.5.1
This is mostly a bugfix release. The [Release Notes for 3.5.0](3.5.0.md)
contain a listing of all the new features that were added.
There are two notable changes that are not only bug fixes, or documentation
additions:
1. a new volume option `server.manage-gids` has been added
This option should be used when users of a volume are in more than
approximately 93 groups (Bug [1096425](https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1096425))
2. Duplicate Request Cache for NFS has now been disabled by default, this may
reduce performance for certain workloads, but improves the overall stability
and memory footprint for most users

### Known Issues:
- The following configuration changes are necessary for qemu and samba
integration with libgfapi to work seamlessly:
1. `gluster volume set <volname> server.allow-insecure on`
2. restarting the volume is necessary
~~~
gluster volume stop <volname>
gluster volume start <volname>
~~~
3. Edit `/etc/glusterfs/glusterd.vol` to contain this line:
~~~
option rpc-auth-allow-insecure on
~~~
4. restarting glusterd is necessary
~~~
service glusterd restart
~~~
More details are also documented in the Gluster Wiki on the [Libgfapi with qemu libvirt](http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Libgfapi_with_qemu_libvirt) page.
- For Block Device translator based volumes open-behind translator at the client side needs to be disabled.
- libgfapi clients calling `glfs_fini` before a successfull `glfs_init` will cause the client to
hang has been [reported by QEMU developers](https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1308542).
The workaround is NOT to call `glfs_fini` for error cases encountered before a successfull
`glfs_init`. Follow [Bug 1091335](https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1091335) to get informed when a
release is made available that contains a final fix.
- After enabling `server.manage-gids`, the volume needs to be stopped and
started again to have the option enabled in the brick processes
~~~
gluster volume stop <volname>
gluster volume start <volname>
