     - 99.999% High Availability with no single point of failure and
       on-line maintenance
     - SQL and NoSQL API (including C++, Java, and http)

MySQL Cluster 7.1.33, has been released and can be downloaded from

http://www.mysql.com/downloads/cluster/

where you will also find Quick Start guides to help you get your
first MySQL Cluster database up and running.

The release notes are available from

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/mysql-cluster/7.1/en/index.html

MySQL Cluster enables users to meet the database challenges of next
generation web, cloud, and communications services with uncompromising

Changes in MySQL Cluster NDB 7.1.33 (5.1.73-ndb-7.1.33) (2014-10-21)

    MySQL Cluster NDB 7.1.33 is a new release of MySQL Cluster,
    incorporating new features in the NDB storage engine and fixing
    recently discovered bugs in previous MySQL Cluster NDB 7.1
    releases.

    The latest MySQL Cluster NDB 7.1 binaries for supported platforms
    can be obtained from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/cluster/.
    Source code for the latest MySQL Cluster NDB 7.1 release can be
    obtained from the same location.
    You can also access the MySQL Cluster NDB 7.1 development source
    tree at https://code.launchpad.net/~mysql/mysql-server/cluster-7.1

    This release also incorporates all bugfixes and changes made in
    previous MySQL Cluster releases, as well as all bugfixes and
    feature changes which were added in mainline MySQL 5.1 through
    MySQL 5.1.73 (see Changes in MySQL 5.1.73 (2013-12-03)
    (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/mysql/5.1/en/news-5-1-73.html))
    .
    Functionality Added or Changed

      * Added the --exclude-missing-tables option for ndb_restore.
        When enabled, the option causes tables present in the backup
        but not in the target database to be ignored. (Bug #57566, Bug
        #11764704)

    Bugs Fixed

      * When assembling error messages of the form Incorrect state for
        node n state: node_state, written when the transporter failed
        to connect, the node state was used in place of the node ID in
        a number of instances, which resulted in errors of this type
        for which the node state was reported incorrectly. (Bug
        #19559313, Bug #73801)

      * In some cases, transporter receive buffers were reset by one
        thread while being read by another. This happened when a race
        condition occurred between a thread receiving data and another
        thread initiating disconnect of the transporter (disconnection
        clears this buffer). Concurrency logic has now been
        implemented to keep this race from taking place. (Bug
        #19554279, Bug #73656)

      * A more detailed error report is printed in the event of a
        critical failure in one of the NDB internal sendSignal*()
        methods, prior to crashing the process, as was already
        implemented for sendSignal(), but was missing from the more
        specialized sendSignalNoRelease() method. Having a crash of
        this type correctly reported can help with identifying
        configuration hardware issues in some cases. (Bug #19414511)
        References: See also Bug #19390895.

      * ndb_restore failed to restore the cluster's metadata when
        there were more than approximately 17 K data objects. (Bug
        #19202654)

      * Parallel transactions performing reads immediately preceding a
        delete on the same tuple could cause the NDB kernel to crash.
        This was more likely to occur when separate TC threads were
        specified using the ThreadConfig configuration parameter. (Bug
        #19031389)

      * Incorrect calculation of the next autoincrement value
        following a manual insertion towards the end of a cached range
        could result in duplicate values sometimes being used. This
        issue could manifest itself whne using certain combinations of
        values for auto_increment_increment, auto_increment_offset,
        and ndb_batch_prefetch_sz.
        This issue has been fixed by modifying this calculation to
        ensure that the next value from the cache as computed by NDB
        is of the form auto_increment_offset + (N *
        auto_increment_increment. This avoids any rounding up by the
        MySQL Server of the returned value, which could result in
        duplicate entries when the rounded-up value fell outside the
        range of values cached by NDB. (Bug #17893872)

      * ndb_show_tables --help output contained misleading information
        about the --database (-d) option. In addition, the long form
        of the option (--database) did not work properly. (Bug
        #17703874)

      * Using the --help option with ndb_print_file caused the program
        to segfault. (Bug #17069285)

      * For multithreaded data nodes, some threads do communicate
        often, with the result that very old signals can remain at the
        top of the signal buffers. When performing a thread trace, the
        signal dumper calculated the latest signal ID from what it
        found in the signal buffers, which meant that these old
        signals could be erroneously counted as the newest ones. Now
        the signal ID counter is kept as part of the thread state, and
        it is this value that is used when dumping signals for trace
        files. (Bug #73842, Bug #19582807)

      * Cluster API: The fix for Bug #16723708 stopped the
        ndb_logevent_get_next() function from casting a log event's
        ndb_mgm_event_category to an enum type, but this change
        interfered with existing applications, and so the function's
        original behavior is now reinstated. A new MGM API function
        exhibiting the corrected behavior ndb_logevent_get_next2() has
        been added in this release to take the place of the reverted
        function, for use in applications that do not require backward
        compatibility. In all other respects apart from this, the new
        function is identical with its predecessor. (Bug #18354165)

      * ClusterJ: Retrieval of values from BLOB and TEXT columns by
        ClusterJ column accessor methods was not handled correctly.
        (Bug #18419468, Bug #19028487)
