V21.2 Release Available
The latest release is V21.2 which adds optimizations for the OpenCL work kernel and resolves issues interrupting node operation during certain network conditions. Upgrading to V21.2 is recommended for all node operators.
There are no special integration considerations or impacts with this release if upgrading from V21.0 or higher. If upgrading from V20.0 or lower, please review the V21.0 Release Notes for upgrade notices and other considerations.

Known Issue V19+: macOS 'Too many open files'
-
Issue: The following error can be seen when attempting to run a full node on macOS using the built-in Qt wallet or other GUI-based wallets: "Exception while running wallet: open: Too many open files". This is due to macOS having a very low default file descriptor limit and V19.0 uses more of them after the move to TCP.
-
Solution: For now a workaround is needed to increase the limit. The method depends on the specific macOS version, but some people had success with the recipe in https://superuser.com/a/1171028.
