v.20.3Backward Incompatible Changes
Fixed issues with long file names and replica credential exposure in Distributed tables; changed directory naming format.
Fixed the issuefile name too longwhen sending data forDistributedtables for a large number of replicas. Fixed the issue that replica credentials were exposed in the server log. The format of directory name on disk was changed to[shard{shard_index}[_replica{replica_index}]]. #8911 (Mikhail Korotov) After you upgrade to the new version, you will not be able to downgrade without manual intervention, because old server version does not recognize the new directory format. If you want to downgrade, you have to manually rename the corresponding directories to the old format. This change is relevant only if you have used asynchronousINSERTs toDistributedtables. In the version 20.3.3 we will introduce a setting that will allow you to enable the new format gradually.
