			=== Release Notes ===

			Alerts and Configuration Analysis
			* Fixed: disk health WARNING states detected through storcli2 or SMART now raise a Disk Health alert (email/SNMP) instead of only showing in the Physical Disks view. [ QSTOR-12144 ]

			Ceph Scale-out Block, Object and File
			* Fixed: Scale-out Storage Cluster creation now works on routed fabrics where the selected member ports share no common subnet. [ QSTOR-12484 ]

			Enclosures and Controllers
			* Fixed: garbled or incomplete storcli output is now treated as unreliable instead of marking controllers and disks as missing. [ QSTOR-12118 ]

			Network Shares
			* Fixed: HA VIF SMB authentication in Kerberos-only Active Directory environments. [ QSTOR-11685 ]

			Remote Replication, Snapshots and Backup Policies
			* Fixed the replication-schedule volume picker so it no longer hides eligible volumes whose owning node changed after an HA failover. [ QSTOR-11775 ]
			* Fixed problem with backup job cancel not stopping the process. [ QSTOR-11877 ]

			SCSI / NVMe Target
			* Fixed: network ports with iSCSI/NVMe-oF disabled are never exposed as allowed iSCSI portals, including after a service restart. [ QSTOR-12330 ]

			Storage Pool Management
			* Fixed: the service no longer runs zpool status -v on the startup import path, so a pool with many data errors no longer blocks service startup. [ QSTOR-11654 ]
			* Fixed: the QuantaStor service starts after multipathd so pools with many multipath devices no longer start degraded at boot. [ QSTOR-12108 ]
			* Fixed: a degraded pool's missing or faulted devices now stay visible in the Storage Pool Devices view with their state instead of disappearing from the list. [ QSTOR-12109 ]

			Upgrade Manager and Installer
			* Fixed: the el8 install no longer fails on the retired ipmiutil package. [ QSTOR-12257 ]
			* Fixed: ISO images now carry the Ubuntu security updates for packages that reach the ISO only as dependencies. [ QSTOR-12259 ]
			* Fixed: focal installs trust the current OSNEXUS repository signing key, so package upgrades from the public repository work. [ QSTOR-12274 ]
			* Fixed: core-only upgrades now refresh the qstorkeyring package so repository trust updates reach every upgrade path. [ QSTOR-12280 ]
			* Fixed: the install scripts trust only the current OSNEXUS repository signing keys instead of importing the published keyring wholesale. [ QSTOR-12293 ]

			Web Manager
			* Fixed: logging out of the web interface as a non-default administrator or non-admin user no longer logs a false authentication failure or raises spurious 'User Authentication Failed' alerts. [ QSTOR-11701 ]

			=== Release Notes ===

			Ceph Scale-out Block, Object and File
			* Fixed: RGW auto-tiering rules now apply to tenant-scoped buckets; the tiering script is installed for every tenant instead of only the default one. [ QSTOR-12223 ]
			* Added: auto-tiering rules can now be scoped to a tenant from the web interface and CLI - all tenants, buckets outside any tenant, or a named tenant. [ QSTOR-12225 ]
			* Changed: named-tenant matching is now exact ('sc2' no longer also matches 'sc2_prod'); no rule created in the web interface could carry a named tenant before this change, so no existing configuration is affected. [ QSTOR-12225 ]

			Enclosures and Controllers
			* Fixed: Supermicro SC846 and SC847 enclosures reporting vendor SMC now match their JBOD layout profile instead of logging a layout detection failure on every discovery cycle. [ QSTOR-11947 ]
			* Fixed: disks could remain displayed under a 9600-series HBA after the attached storage was removed, because a successful-but-empty discovery result was treated as a command failure and the disk list was never refreshed. [ QSTOR-12036 ]

			Network Shares
			* Fixed: Active Directory user and group lookups no longer fail intermittently where a domain controller address reverse-resolves to a name other than the controller own name. [ QSTOR-12214 ]
			* Added: a domain-join option that disables reverse DNS canonicalization and sends user and group lookups to every pinned domain controller. [ QSTOR-12214 ]
			* Fixed: an Active Directory user/group search now reports why it could not run, instead of always blaming a trusted-domain search filter. [ QSTOR-12216 ]

			Service Core
			* Fixed a qs_service crash under sustained DB connection pool exhaustion on large Ceph/S3 grids by serializing and capping overflow connection creation. [ QSTOR-11580 ]
			* Fixed: a task that failed to resume after a service restart could block every other task from resuming. [ QSTOR-12218 ]
			* Fixed: the task resume limit was not enforced for some task types, so a task that could never finish was retried on every service start. [ QSTOR-12218 ]

			Storage Pool Management
			* Added capability to simulate Corvault configurations in order to test pool configurations for redundancy. [ QSTOR-11945 ]

			Upgrade Manager and Installer
			* Fixed: a storage system upgrade task could stop resuming after the second service restart, leaving a completed upgrade reported as stuck at 30%. [ QSTOR-12177 ]
			* Fixed: leftover upgrade progress files were never purged, so a finished upgrade could keep reporting stale progress. [ QSTOR-12219 ]
			* Fixed: 6.8.4 ISO and OVA images were missing qstortomcat, qstorrest, qstoraws and qstorbase, which left the web interface unavailable after an offline install. The images have been rebuilt. [ QSTOR-12237 ]
			* Added: an ISO build now fails if a package it declares is absent, so an incomplete image cannot ship. [ QSTOR-12237 ]

			=== Release Notes ===

			Ceph Scale-out Block, Object and File
			* Creating or removing a Ceph object storage class now commits the RGW period so it takes effect immediately. [ QSTOR-11938 ]
			* A failed bucket enumeration is no longer treated as an empty list, which could silently drop bucket configuration. [ QSTOR-12130 ]
			* Ceph object pool group creation now commits the RGW period, fixing persistent RGW realm/master-zone errors. [ QSTOR-12132 ]

			Network Shares
			* Fixed Active Directory join failures on domains that use older Kerberos encryption methods. [ QSTOR-11646 ]
			* Changed: Active Directory joins now set 'restrict anonymous = 2' in smb.conf to block unauthenticated SID/RID enumeration. [ QSTOR-11834 ]
			* Fixed: Active Directory joins no longer fail when the computer-account OU contains a space. [ QSTOR-11895 ]
			* Fixed: Active Directory joins no longer disable SASL signing in the system-wide ldap.conf. [ QSTOR-11926 ]
			* Added a 'Skip DNS registration' option to the Active Directory join dialog, CLI and API for sites whose DNS is managed outside AD. [ QSTOR-12083 ]
			* Fixed a custom autorid Domain Range Size being discarded during an Active Directory join. [ QSTOR-12089 ]
			* The Active Directory KDC field now accepts a comma-separated list of domain controllers for Kerberos failover. [ QSTOR-12091 ]
			* Active Directory joins in SSSD modes no longer force user/group enumeration, which could stall startup on large domains. [ QSTOR-12092 ]
			* Fixed: Active Directory joins now send the machine-account password update to the PDC Emulator, fixing 'Message stream modified' failures. [ QSTOR-12136 ]
			* Fixed: leaving an Active Directory domain now updates the web UI immediately instead of still showing the old domain. [ QSTOR-12153 ]
			* Changed: the Active Directory join dialog now labels its two ID-range sections distinctly so it's clear which is being edited. [ QSTOR-12154 ]

			Service Core
			* Memory optimization for grid event handling. [ QSTOR-12112 ]

			Upgrade Manager and Installer
			* The upgrade system now fetches and verifies the latest OSNEXUS package signing key before applying updates. [ QSTOR-9551 ]
			* Fixed EL8 upgrades pinning a stale awscli/qstoraws package version from the RedHat repository. [ QSTOR-11991 ]
			* In-place Ceph upgrades now install the shipped Ceph 20.2.2 release instead of an older pinned version. [ QSTOR-11998 ]
			* Fixed a grafana-enterprise package upgrade failure that could leave dpkg in a held state during upgrades from 6.8.1. [ QSTOR-12075 ]
			* Updated the Ubuntu 24.04 upgrade configuration to the shipped kernel and Ceph 20.2.2 versions. [ QSTOR-12077 ]

			* Changed: qs-distupgrade output is timestamped and includes a pre-upgrade configuration report. [ QSTOR-11632 ]
			* Added: platform distribution upgrade (qs-distupgrade) from Ubuntu 22.04 to 24.04. [ QSTOR-11651 ]
