Qumulo Core Feature Log

This section lists the most important features from each release.

Qumulo Core 7.7.0 (Quarterly)

Important

This release upgrades the host OS from Ubuntu 24.04, kernel 6.8 to Ubuntu 24.04, kernel 6.14.
To prevent Qumulo Core from consuming a large amount of memory when an Intel NIC is installed in a node, we have blacklisted the irdma kernel module in Qumulo Core 7.7.0 (and higher).

Added Non-VPN Remote Support for self-managed Cloud Native Qumulo (CNQ) and on-premises clusters
Removed and replaced qq CLI commands related to Snapshots functionality
Resolved an issue with case sensitivity in Domain Controller lists

Qumulo Core 7.6.4.1

Important
This release resolves an issue that affects Azure Native Qumulo (ANQ) and Cloud Native Qumulo (CNQ) clusters. While this issue did not affect cluster data, it caused the system to not delete unneeded backing data. When certain accounts retained this data incorrectly, there was a potential increase in consumption of cloud resources.

Improved Cloud Data Fabric portal data synchronization speeds
Moved a number of /v3/network/* REST APIs out of preview status
Added a number qq network_*, qq portal_authorize_hub, and qq_snapshot_* CLI commands

Qumulo Core 7.6.3.1

Downloads and Release Notes🔒

Important
This release resolves an issue with Cloud Data Fabric where previously it was possible for a client connected through SMB to perform an operation on a file from a spoke portal after the same file was deleted from the hub portal, causing the cluster to become unavailable.

Made EdgeConnect (unprotected, single-node edge) clusters publicly available as bare-metal and VM deployments
- Added the cluster_type metric to the Qumulo OpenMetrics API Specification
Improved Cloud Data Fabric (CDF):
- Increased portal data synchronization IOPS and throughput for many CDF workloads
- Added full support for SMB Read Lease and Write Lease functionality to CDF
- Resolved an issue related to audit logging and spoke portal file path resolution
Improved the S3 API:
- Added support for the STREAMING-UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD-TRAILER authentication type with the CRC64-NVME and SHA-256 checksum formats
- Added Qumulo Core support for the default authentication type that the AWS CLI uses for the PutObject and UploadPart API actions
Added the ability to specify a list of Active Directory domain controllers that overrides the default auto-discovery process
Limited the number of bind_uri entries to 3 for standalone LDAP queries
Made qq CLI and REST API changes to support the new EdgeConnect, CDF, S3 API, Active Directory, and LDAP functionality

Qumulo Core 7.6.2

Downloads and Release Notes🔒

Made improvements to Cloud Data Fabric:
- Added the ability to configure up to 32 spoke portal root directories for each portal relationship
- Made corresponding /v2/portal/* REST API and qq portal_* CLI changes
- Changed some of the terminology concerning portal relationship states and portal root directory states
Ensured that the ListObjectsV2 S3 API action supports the start-after parameter

Qumulo Core 7.6.1.1

Downloads and Release Notes🔒

Note
This release of Qumulo Core adds Illumio Policy Compute Engine (PCE) and Virtual Enforcement Node (VEN) functionality that ensures network security within the container.

If your cluster doesn't use Illumio, there is no need to upgrade to this release.
To connect each node in your cluster to a VEN, run the illumio-ven-ctl command within the container on every node in your cluster. For more information, see VEN Activate Command Reference in the Illumio documentation.

Added the ability to apply the private policy to an S3 bucket at creation time
For Cloud Native Qumulo (CNQ), replaced two OpenMetrics metrics for node and drive failure
Resolved an issue with the REST API endpoint for unconfigured nodes

Qumulo Core 7.6.0.2 (Quarterly)

Downloads and Release Notes🔒

Important

This release resolves an issue with the Qumulo Core upgrade process.
This release resolves unexpected behavior in the latest host operating system which can block the Qumulo Core upgrade process due to temporary storage becoming unavailable.
This release resolves an issue identified in Qumulo Core 7.5.4 where, under certain conditions, a node could become unavailable during an update.

The majority of functionality and stability improvements in this Qumulo Core release are internal.
Resolved an issue with the location of S3 buckets created from the Qumulo Core Web UI

Qumulo Core 7.5.0.3 (Quarterly)

Downloads and Release Notes🔒

Important

This release resolves an issue with Authoritative DNS (QDNS) by reducing the amount of logging for the feature.
This release resolves a rare issue where previously, under certain conditions, concurrent quorum-related activity could result in file system data being overwritten.
This release resolves an issue that previously occurred after a spoke portal was deleted.
This release resolves the following on-premises cluster issues:
- For clusters with certain erasure coding configurations deployed before July 4, 2020, this release resolves an issue that previously could occur during quorum formation, resulting in internal metadata being in an inconsistent state.
- This release resolves unexpected SAS controller behavior on hardware nodes, where previously hot-plugging drives could cause cluster instability.

Made improvements to Cloud Data Fabric:
- Enabled the creation of up to 32 spoke portals on a single Qumulo cluster
- Improved file creation latency and throughput for spoke portals
- Added the Priority Sync feature for read-write spoke portals
Added the Qumulo Authoritative DNS (QDNS) to Qumulo Core
Added support for latest Western Digital Ultrastar DC SN640 SSD firmware
Resolved an issue with incorrect drive types for nodes in on-premises clusters
Modified the ListBuckets S3 API action to use the BucketPolicy permission together with Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) in Qumulo Core

Qumulo Core 7.4.0.4 (Quarterly)
