The new version arrives a little over a month since the previous point release, namely Rockstor 3.8-15, and it appears to be yet another exciting release in the development cycle of the Btrfs-based NAS solution as a total of six contributors have managed to address no less than 35 issues reported by users since November 10, 2016.

Among the fixes that landed in the Rockstor 3.8-16 release, we can mention various improvements to the Dashboard pool usage widget, better pool usage reporting, support for Rockstor to be viewed as a server in AFP (Apple Filing Protocol) shares, better smoothing thanks to an increase in the widget animation timing, as well as the implementation of a NUT-initiated shutdown option.
