I think that disabling it before upgrading (and give some time to become effective) makes it possible to successfully complete a rolling upgrade, but I've not tested it personally. Adding @Ashish Pandey who tested it, and may know more details about the procedure.

Completed upgrade testing using RC1 packages against a 4.1 cluster. Things hold up fine. (replicate type volumes) I have not attempted a rolling upgrade of disperse volumes, as we still lack instructions to do so. @Pranith/@Xavi is this feasible this release onward?

Because I received notes that the CentOS Storage SIG packages from the testing repository has been tested successfully, I submitted the request to sync the repository (minus glusterfs itself) to the CentOS mirror network. These requests are normally handled on Mondays, so the configuration and pre-seeding should be in place beginning of next week. Additional packages (glusterfs 5 GA) can then quickly land there as well. In case someone is interested on the progress, you can follow https://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=15356 for this. The next step on the CentOS Storage SIG side is to get the GA build on the mirrors, and then update centos-release-gluster5 to use the right repository (and disable -test). This package then needs to be proposed for inclusion in CentOS Extras. When that is accepted/pushed, a release announcement needs to be sent to the CentOS Announce list. Assistance with composing the message is appreciated. The format should be similar to previous CentOS announcements: https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2018-June/022927.html WIP at https://hackmd.io/_fKHKmvuSwS6qCgJAn4H-w?edit Thanks, Niels ___ maintainers mailing list maintainers@gluster.org https://lists.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/maintainers

Re: [Gluster-Maintainers] Release 5: Branched and further dates
Hi, Updates on the release and shout out for help is as follows, RC0 Release packages for testing are available see the thread at [1] These are the following activities that we need to complete for calling the release as GA (with no major regressions i.e): 1. Release notes (Owner: release owner (myself), will send out an initial version for review and to solicit inputs today) 2. Testing dashboard to maintain release health (new, thanks Nigel) - Dashboard at [2] - We already have 3 failures here as follows, needs attention from appropriate *maintainers*, (a) https://build.gluster.org/job/regression-test-with-multiplex/871/consoleText - Failed with core: ./tests/basic/afr/gfid-mismatch-resolution-with-cli.t (b) https://build.gluster.org/job/regression-test-with-multiplex/873/consoleText - Failed with core: ./tests/bugs/snapshot/bug-1275616.t - Also test ./tests/bugs/glusterd/validating-server-quorum.t had to be retried (c) https://build.gluster.org/job/regression-test-burn-in/4109/consoleText - Failed with core: ./tests/basic/mgmt_v3-locks.t 3. Upgrade testing - Need *volunteers* to do the upgrade testing as stated in the 4.1 upgrade guide [3] to note any differences or changes to the same - Explicit call out on *disperse* volumes, as we continue to state online upgrade is not possible, is this addressed and can this be tested and the documentation improved around the same? 4. Performance testing/benchmarking - I would be using smallfile and FIO to baseline 3.12 and 4.1 and test RC0 for any major regressions - If we already know of any please shout out so that we are aware of the problems and upcoming fixes to the same 5. Major testing areas - Py3 support: Need *volunteers* here to test out the Py3 support around changed python files, if there is not enough coverage in the regression test suite for the same Thanks, Shyam [1] Packages for RC0: https://lists.gluster.org/pipermail/maintainers/2018-September/005044.html [2] Release testing health dashboard: https://build.gluster.org/job/nightly-release-5/ [3] 4.1 upgrade guide: https://docs.gluster.org/en/latest/Upgrade-Guide/upgrade_to_4.1/ On 09/13/2018 11:10 AM, Shyam Ranganathan wrote: > Hi, > > Release 5 has been branched today.

[Gluster-Maintainers] Release 5: Branched and further dates
Hi, Release 5 has been branched today. To backport fixes to the upcoming 5.0 release use the tracker bug [1]. We intend to roll out RC0 build by end of tomorrow for testing, unless the set of usual cleanup patches (op-version, some messages, gfapi version) land in any form of trouble. RC1 would be around 24th of Sep. with final release tagging around 1st of Oct. I would like to encourage everyone to test out the bits as appropriate and post updates to this thread. Thanks, Shyam [1] 5.0 tracker: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=glusterfs-5.0 ___ maintainers mailing list maintainers@gluster.org https://lists.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/maintainers
