Version 1.2.2
- fix ‘gnt-instance modify’ breakage introduced in 1.2.1 with the HVM
support (issue 23)
- add command aliases infrastructure and a few aliases
- allow listing of VCPUs in the gnt-instance list and improve the man
pages and the --help option of gnt-node/gnt-instance list
- fix gnt-backup list with down nodes (issue 21)
- change the tools location (move from $pkgdatadir to
$pkglibdir/tools)
- fix the dist archive and add a check for including svn/git files in
the future
- some developer-related changes: improve the burnin and the QA
suite, add an upload script for testing during development
- experimental HVM support, read the install document, section
"Initializing the cluster"
- allow for the PVM hypervisor per-instance kernel and initrd paths
- add a new command ‘gnt-cluster verify-disks’ which uses a new
algorithm to improve the reconnection of the DRBD pairs if the
device on the secondary node has gone away
- make logical volume code auto-activate LVs at disk activation time
- slightly improve the speed of activating disks
- allow specification of the MAC address at instance creation time,
and changing it later via ‘gnt-instance modify’
- fix handling of external commands that generate lots of output on
stderr
- update documentation with regard to minimum version of DRBD8
supported
Version 1.2.0
- Log the ‘xm create’ output to the node daemon log on failure (to
help diagnosing the error)
- In debug mode, log all external commands output if failed to the
logs
- Change parsing of lvm commands to ignore stderr
Version 1.2b3
- Another round of updates to the DRBD 8 code to deal with more
failures in the replace secondary node operation
- Some more logging of failures in disk operations (lvm, drbd)
- A few documentation updates
- QA updates
Version 1.2b2
- Change configuration file format from Python's Pickle to JSON.
Upgrading is possible using the cfgupgrade utility.
- Add support for DRBD 8.0 (new disk template `drbd`) which allows for
faster replace disks and is more stable (DRBD 8 has many
improvements compared to DRBD 0.7)
- Added command line tags support (see man pages for gnt-instance,
gnt-node, gnt-cluster)
- Added instance rename support
- Added multi-instance startup/shutdown
- Added cluster rename support
- Added `gnt-node evacuate` to simplify some node operations
- Added instance reboot operation that can speedup reboot as compared
to stop and start
- Soften the requirement that hostnames are in FQDN format
- The ganeti-watcher now activates drbd pairs after secondary node
reboots
- Removed dependency on debian's patched fping that uses the
non-standard -S option
- Now the OS definitions are searched for in multiple, configurable
paths (easier for distros to package)
- Some changes to the hooks infrastructure (especially the new
post-configuration update hook)
- Other small bugfixes
