Closed Issues in 6.1.1_hotfix09 (This Release)





.NET Specific

GS-12217

Data compression did not work when using the .NET Driver.





C++ Specific

GS-12401

The 32-bit Visual C++ runtimes, needed for running 32-bit Services on a 64-bit
Engine, were not installed by the Windows 64-bit Engine installer. They now are.



GS-12547

Submitting large numbers of parallel thread service requests of short duration
can cause a crash.





Database

GS-12658

The Oracle 12c JDBC driver did not work with the reporting database; it now
does.





Diagnostics

GS-12569

Two log messages on the Engine, "[NativeUtils] Adding library path" and 
"[CPPBridgeSupport] Creating symlink" have been changed from INFO to FINE level
to reduce the disk footprint of the log files.





Engine Daemon

GS-12767

When the Manager was sending notification messages to the Daemon, such as Task
assigned or cancelled, the Daemon's fileserver was instructing the Manager to
retry after 5s if the Daemon was not logged in to a Director. This was
unecessary and could cause problems with backlogging of notifcation messages. 





GUI

GS-12683

Sorting Services by elapsed time on the Service Admin page failed and displayed
a NullPointerException.



GS-12776

On the User Admin page, sort by 'Create Date' did not sort properly.





Resource Deployment

GS-12874

The 'Use Grid Specific Resources' setting was only available on the Primary
Director. If this was set to true, in a failover scenario when the Secondary
would take over for the Primary, the resource would revert to no longer
grid-specific. This setting has now been added to the Secondary. 





Routing and Balancing

GS-12879

An erroneous field validation in the GUI prevented semicolons from being used
for Broker sharing tiers.





Security

GS-12234

C++ Drivers did not use credentials specified in the driver.properties file when
using a Kerberos-enabled Grid. This would be done for the sake of running the
Driver as a different user than the logged in user. This now works properly.





Services

GS-12309

The use of a null Condition in a Condition set would result in a
NullPointerException in the Manager log, and the Condition comparison would
fail. While using null Conditions is not considered best practices, it is now
handled properly.



GS-12895

Under certain circumstances it was possible for an Engine to miss a notification
sent from the Broker of a new Task, resulting in a Task assignment timing out
and an Engine restart.





Stability,Fault Tolerance

GS-12908

The garbage collector used by the Manager has been changed from G1 to Concurrent
Mark Sweep (CMS). This is due to observed and documented issues with the G1
collector. Note that you must reinstall a Windows service to pick up this
change.



GS-12825

The default number of Tomcat threads for processing messages has been increased
from 200 to 300 to accomodate the default number of messaging threads. Note that
for existing installations you must manually update your service.xml file in the
DS_DATA_DIR/conf directory. Add the 'maxThreads' attribute to the 'Connector'
elements in the same mannner as they are in DS_MANAGER/conf/server.xml file.
