<br>
Here are some items that may interest you in this release:<br>
<br>
* 16TB LUN is supported on RHEL5 with ext4-based ldiskfs and<br>
not with ext3-based ldiskfs. The default RHEL5 rpms still<br>
use ext3 and specific rpms are provided with ext4 support.<br>
Naming for the files uses "-ext4" following the kernel<br>
version string. Please note that this was manually done<br>
for this release, so internal package name will not match<br>
for this release (see bug 20301).<br>

<br>
<br>
* quotacheck performance has been greatly improved (bug 19763).<br>

<br>
* Several recovery improvements providing a finer control over<br>
recovery time (new tunables added). See bug 18948 for more<br>
details. <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"

<br>
* A bug causing truncated read on 32-bit clients when accessing an<br>
offset > 4GB has been fixed (see bug 21506).<br>

<br>
* Fix a locking issue on rename operation causing metadata corruption.<br>
The race window is quite small and the bug has only been reported<br>
while running intensive concurrent rename operations in the same<br>
directory (see bug 20892).<br>
