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 7.6.0.1 (Quarterly)

Downloads and Release Notes

Important

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
