[Gluster-devel] glusterfs-3.7.3 released

Hi All,

I have some updates on GlusterFS-3.7.3

## Issue with upgrades

We've come to know that a new feature in 3.7.3 is causing troubles
during upgrades from previous versions of GlusterFS to 3.7.3. I
apologize for not making note of this earlier. The details of the
feature, issue and work around are below.

Feature:
In GlusterFS-3.7.3, insecure-ports have been enabled by default. This
means that by default, servers accept connections from insecure ports,
clients use insecure ports to connect to servers. This change
particularly benefits usage of libgfapi, for example when it is used
in qemu run by a normal user.

Issue:
This has caused troubles when upgrading from previous versions to
3.7.3 in rolling upgrades and when attempting to use 3.7.3 clients
with older servers. The 3.7.3 clients establish connections using
insecure ports by default. But the older servers still expect
connections to come from secure-ports (if this setting has not been
changed). This causes servers to reject connections from 3.7.3, and
leads to broken clusters during upgrade and rejected clients.

Workaround:
There are two possible workarounds.
Before upgrading,
1. Set 'client.bind-insecure off' on all volumes. This forces 3.7.3
clients to use secure ports to connect to the servers. This does not
affect older clients as this setting is the default for them.

2. Set 'server.allow-insecure on' on all volumes. This enables servers
to accept connections from insecure ports as well and allows the new
clients to successfully connect to the servers.


If anyone faces any problems with these workarounds, please let us know.

## Other updates

Binary packages have been built. RPMS and debs for Debian are
available at http://download.gluster.org/pub/gluster/glusterfs/3.7/3.7.3/
thanks to Kaleb and Humble. Ubuntu packages are available from
https://launchpad.net/~gluster/+archive/ubuntu/glusterfs-3.7 .
Emmanuel has also update the pkgsrc for NetBSD.


Regards,
Kaushal
