PolarDB:Release notes for PolarDB-X CDC nodes

Category

Description

Fixed issue

The following issue is fixed: The CDC link is interrupted because compatibility issues occur when CDC metadata processes data of the REAL and DOUBLE types.

Category

Description

Fixed issue

The following issue is fixed: Consecutive TableMapEvents may occur when you execute a single SQL statement to update multiple tables, which causes out-of-order trace IDs.

Category

Description

Fixed issue

The following issue is fixed: The CDC process cannot be started because a single compute node fails.

The following issue is fixed: The DUMP operation on binary log files fails because the OFFSET value in the memory is different from that in the binary log files.

Category

Description

Fixed issue

The following issue is fixed: Information returned from the SHOW FULL BINARY LOGS statement is incomplete.

The following issue is fixed: A binary log file is lost due to concurrent uploads of the file during the CDC topology reconstruction process.

The following issues are fixed: The ALTER statements that contain implicit table groups fail to be parsed by the SQL parser and fail to be correctly processed.

The following issue is fixed: The system automatically removes local files on the primary node during the primary-secondary synchronization process by using a CDC dumper. As a result, the replication links cannot be automatically restored.

Category

Description

New feature

Sync points are periodically created on CDC nodes.

Fixed issue

The following issue is fixed: The binlog cursor fails to advance through binlogs as expected, which leads to hindered binlog consumption.

Category

Description

New feature and feature optimization

Sync points are periodically created on CDC nodes.

The full data verification capability used to evaluate the upgrade of a PolarDB-X 1.0 instance to a PolarDB-X 2.0 instance is optimized.

The following issue is fixed: Metadata indexes are lost after multiple ALTER ADD INDEX, ALTER DROP INDEX, and ALTER RENAME INDEX statements are executed, which causes incorrect DDL statements to be recorded in binlogs.

The following issue is fixed: DDL is filtered when the ALTER DDL SQL statement contains the 'user' keyword due to a configuration defect in the meta_build_physical_ddl_sql_blacklist_regex parameter.

The following issue is fixed: DROP INDEX DDL statements cannot be recorded in binlogs.

Fixed issue

The following issue is fixed: A buffer overflow occurs when you perform data shaping on JSON data.

The following issue is fixed: During the upgrade of the change data capture (CDC) feature, the metaDataSource scan thread exits due to high-availability (HA) switchover in the metadatabase.

Category

Description

New feature and feature optimization

Fixed issue

The following issue is fixed: Errors occur if the table creation statement and parsing syntax contain the BIGINT SIGNED column definition.

The following issue is fixed: Holes exist in the binlog list when the syntax for generating transaction sequence objects (TSOs) is restored.
