== Fixed Issues




=== Cluster Manager

a| *Metric Rename – Cache Miss Ratio → Miss Ratio*
The _Cache Miss Ratio_ metric name suggested it measured memory or disk caching performance. In reality, as of version 7.6.2, it was redefined to measure the proportion of read (`get`) operations that fail because the requested key is not present in the bucket at all. To eliminate this confusion, the metric has been renamed to *Get Miss Ratio*.

a| When modifying filter expressions or mapping configurations (explicit/migration), race conditions may prevent proper replication from the source. This can result in source bucket documents failing to replicate to the target bucket.

To address this issue, the system now displays an alert when detecting replication resuming from stale checkpoints. This alert notifies users to delete and recreate the affected replication.

IMPORTANT: Do not dismiss this alert by pausing and resuming the replication, as this will hide the warning without resolving the underlying issue.

a| The recent builds of Couchbase Server versions 7.2.7 through 8.1.0 and Enterprise Analytics 2.1.0 include updates from the go_json library to address int64 overflow issues reported under MB-67849. The updates involve implementing proper checks for int64 overflow in order to properly represent large numbers (greater than stem:[2^63] or less than stem:[-2^63]).
