the JSON file. It's now not a custom dict anymore but a dict
compatible with the ``OpInstanceCreate`` opcode.

+ ``opportunistic_locking`` parameter is set the opcode will try to
+ acquire as many locks as possible, but will not wait for any locks
+ held by other opcodes. If the not enough resources can be found to
+ allocate the instance, the temporary error code
+ :pyeval:`errors.ECODE_TEMP_NORES` is returned. The operation can be
+ retried thereafter, with or without opportunistic locking.
Version 2.6.1
*(Released Fri, 12 Oct 2012)*
-A small bugfix release.
-
-Fix double use of PRIORITY_OPT in gnt-node migrate, that would make the
-command unusable.
-
-Commands that issue many jobs don't fail anymore just because some jobs
-take so long that other jobs are archived.
-
-Failures during gnt-instance reinstall are reflected by the exit status.
-
-Issue 190 fixed. Check for DRBD in cluster verify is enabled only when
-DRBD is enabled.
-
-When always_failover is set, --allow-failover is not required in migrate
-commands anymore.
-
-bash_completion works even if extglob is disabled
-
-Fix bug with locks that made failover for RDB-based instances fail.
-
-Fix bug in non-mirrored instance allocation that would make Ganeti
-choose a random node instead of one based on the allocator metric.
-
-Support for newer versions of pylint and pep8.
-
-Hail doesn't fail anymore when trying to add an instance of type
-'file', 'sharedfile' or 'rbd'.
-
-Add new Makefile target to rebuild the whole dist, so that all files are
-included.
