Version 2.7.0 beta1
-------------------
-*(unreleased)*
+*(Released Wed, 6 Feb 2013)*
- ``gnt-instance batch-create`` has been changed to use the bulk create
opcode from Ganeti. This lead to incompatible changes in the format of
<rapi>` interface and when an instance allocator is used. If the
``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
+ held by other opcodes. If 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.
+- The functionality for allocating multiple instances at once has been
+ overhauled and is now also available through :doc:`RAPI <rapi>`.
- Man pages can now be included when the documentation is built, in
which case the output is in ``doc/man-html``. The configure-time
option is ``--enable-manpages-in-doc``. Sphinx 1.0 or higher is
- New external storage backend, to allow managing arbitrary storage
systems external to the cluster. See
:manpage:`ganeti-extstorage-interface(7)`.
+- Instance renames of LVM-based instances will now update the LV tags
+ (which can be used to recover the instance-to-LV mapping in case of
+ emergencies)
+- ``hbal`` will now exit with status 0 if, during job execution over
+ LUXI, early exit has been requested and all jobs are successful;
+ before, exit status 1 was used, which cannot be differentiated from
+ "job error" case
