TiDB 6.1.5 Release Notes

Release date: February 28, 2023

TiDB version: 6.1.5

Quick access: Quick start | Production deployment

Compatibility changes

  • Starting from February 20, 2023, the telemetry feature is disabled by default in new versions of TiDB and TiDB Dashboard, including v6.1.5, and usage information is not collected and shared with PingCAP. Before upgrading to these versions, if the cluster uses the default telemetry configuration, the telemetry feature is disabled after the upgrade. See TiDB Release Timeline for a specific version.

    • The default value of the tidb_enable_telemetry system variable is changed from ON to OFF.
    • The default value of the TiDB enable-telemetry configuration item is changed from true to false.
    • The default value of the PD enable-telemetry configuration item is changed from true to false.
  • Starting from v1.11.3, the telemetry feature is disabled by default in newly deployed TiUP, and usage information is not collected. If you upgrade from a TiUP version earlier than v1.11.3 to v1.11.3 or a later version, the telemetry feature keeps the same status as before the upgrade.
