Incompatible/important changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
New features
~~~~~~~~~~~~
+- Hotplug support. Introduce new option '--hotplug' to ``gnt-instance modify``
+ so that disk and NIC modifications take effect without the need of actual
+ reboot. There are a couple of constrains currently for this feature:
+
+ - only KVM hypervisor (versions >= 1.0) supports it,
+ - one can not (yet) hotplug a disk using userspace access mode for RBD
+ - in case of a downgrade instances should suffer a reboot in order to
+ be migratable (due to core change of runtime files)
- The :doc:`Remote API <rapi>` daemon now supports a command line flag
to always require authentication, ``--require-authentication``. It can
be specified in ``$sysconfdir/default/ganeti``.
- The minimum Python version needed to run Ganeti is now 2.6.
- ``yaml`` library (only for running the QA).
-Since 2.8.0 rc2
+Since 2.8.0 rc3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+- Perform proper cleanup on termination of Haskell daemons
+- Fix corner-case in handling of remaining retry time

+*(Released Tue, 17 Sep 2013)*
- To simplify the work of packaging frameworks that want to add the needed users
and groups in a split-user setup themselves, at build time three files in
projects / ganeti-local / blobdiff
