Details of this release are summarized here: https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/53324 Release Notes - https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/44131 Seeking approvals for: rados - Neha rgw - Casey rbd - Ilya, Deepika krbd Ilya, Deepika fs - Venky, Patrick upgrade/nautilus-x - Neha, Josh upgrade/pacific-p2p - Neha, Josh ======================== We are also publishing a release candidate this time for users to try for testing only. The branch name is pacific-16.2.7_RC1 (https://shaman.ceph.com/builds/ceph/pacific-16.2.7_RC1/fdc003bc12f1b2443c4596eeacb32cf62e806970/) ***Don’t use this RC on production clusters!*** The idea of doing Release Candidates (RC) for point releases before doing final point releases was discussed in the first-ever Ceph User + Dev Monthly Meeting. Everybody thought that it was a good idea, to help identify bugs that do not get caught in integration testing. The goal is to give users time to test and give feedback on RC releases while our upstream long-running cluster also runs the same RC release during that time (period of one week). We will kick this process off with 16.2.7 and the pacific-16.2.7_RC1 release is now available for users to test. Please respond to this email to provide any feedback on issues found in this release.
