I've tested upgrades from the current zesty versions (in a three unit cluster) to the new versions of pxc, xtrabackup and galera in the PPA from #4. This included a sample dataset export from one of the QA OpenStack clouds that we run; package upgrade was clean, with units only dropping from the cluster when the mysqld was down during the package upgrade - mix of old and new versions appeared to be OK during the upgrade process.
Also performed the same testing for xenial based on packages in the PPA (same target versions as for zesty). ** Summary changed: - [SRU] percona-xtradb-cluster-5.6 5.6.34-26.19, percona-galera-3 3.19, percona-xtrabackup 2.3.7 + percona-xtradb-cluster-5.6 5.6.34-26.19, percona-galera-3 3.19, percona-xtrabackup 2.3.7 ** Description changed: - The version of pxc in Ubuntu is really quite old with a number of - security vulnerabilities; we should rebase onto the latest 5.6 release - from PXC upstream. + [Impact] + The version of percona-xtradb-cluster-5.6 in xenial and later is out of date with know security vulnerabilities; users of this package are a risk of compromise. + + [Test Case] + To verify the upgrade to the newer versions is OK, deployment of a three unit pxc cluster with sample date, upgrade to new version and re-verification of data will be undertaken. + + [Regression Potential] + Medium; we're re-aligning across all three packages with Percona's upstream repositories however this will require a version dependency bump in percona-xtrabackup (2.2.x -> 2.3.x); this should be fine, but this tool has potential use outside of percona-xtradb-server-5.6 (its great for online backups of MySQL generally). + + The test plan covers its use in PXC; however I would propose an extended + bake period in -proposed with a call for testing on the ubuntu-server + list prior to release to -updates. + + [Original Bug Report] + The version of pxc in Ubuntu is really quite old with a number of security vulnerabilities; we should rebase onto the latest 5.6 release from PXC upstream. https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-xtradb-cluster/5.6/release-notes /release-notes_index.html ** Changed in: percona-xtradb-cluster-5.6 (Ubuntu Yakkety) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: percona-xtradb-cluster-5.6 (Ubuntu Yakkety) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: percona-xtradb-cluster-5.6 (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: percona-xtradb-cluster-5.6 (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: percona-xtrabackup (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: percona-xtrabackup (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: percona-xtrabackup (Ubuntu Yakkety) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: percona-xtrabackup (Ubuntu Yakkety) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: percona-galera-3 (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: percona-galera-3 (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: percona-galera-3 (Ubuntu Yakkety) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: percona-galera-3 (Ubuntu Yakkety) Status: New => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1668934 Title: percona-xtradb-cluster-5.6 5.6.34-26.19, percona-galera-3 3.19, percona-xtrabackup 2.3.7 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/percona-galera-3/+bug/1668934/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
