This is the first MySQL Cluster NDB 6.1 release, incorporating
new features and bugfixes made for the
NDBCLUSTER storage engine made
since branching from MySQL 5.1.14 standard (see
Section C.1.38, “Changes in MySQL 5.1.14 (05 December 2006)”).
MySQL Cluster NDB 6.1 no longer in development. MySQL Cluster NDB 6.1 (formerly known as “MySQL Cluster Carrier Grade Edition 6.1.x”) is no longer being developed or maintained; if you are using a MySQL Cluster NDB 6.1 release, you should consider upgrading to MySQL Cluster NDB 6.2 or 6.3.
Please refer to our bug database at http://bugs.mysql.com/ for more details about the individual bugs fixed in this version.
