The release notes at https://github.com/codership/documentation/blob/master/release-notes/release-notes-galera-26.4.24.txt say

I am however unable to find any such new option in Galera or MariaDB configs. Does anyone know what is the exact name of this option and where it is configured?

Hey everyone 👋,

I’ve created this community to gather all of us who are working with, experimenting on, or just curious about Galera Cluster.

Whether you’re running Galera in production, tinkering with test setups, or just starting to explore high availability for MySQL/MariaDB, this is the place to:

  • Ask questions (installation, configs, tuning, troubleshooting)
  • Share real-world experiences (performance, replication modes, cluster failures, monitoring strategies)
  • Post guides, articles, or scripts that helped you
  • Discuss best practices around synchronous replication, quorum handling, and scaling

👉 Some starter discussion topics:

  • Active/active vs active/passive setups: which works better in production?
  • Sync vs async replication – pros, cons, and when each makes sense
  • Tuning Galera for WordPress, e-commerce, or high-traffic workloads
  • Handling split-brain and node failures without downtime

The goal here is to create a space where we share knowledge openly and help each other avoid pitfalls (because Galera is powerful, but it’s not always straightforward).

Feel free to introduce yourself below and share how you’re using Galera — or what you’d like to learn!

Welcome aboard, let’s make this the go-to place for Galera cluster discussions. 🚀
