-Version 2.6.0 rc2
------------------
+Version 2.6.1
+-------------
+
+*(Released Fri, 12 Oct 2012)*
+
+A small bugfix release. Among the bugs fixed:
+
+- Fixed double use of ``PRIORITY_OPT`` in ``gnt-node migrate``, that
+ made 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.
+- Fixed bug with locks that made failover for RDB-based instances fail.
+- Fixed bug in non-mirrored instance allocation that made 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``.
+- Added new Makefile target to rebuild the whole distribution, so that
+ all files are included.
+
+
+Version 2.6.0
+-------------
+
+*(Released Fri, 27 Jul 2012)*
+
+
+.. attention:: The ``LUXI`` protocol has been made more consistent
+ regarding its handling of command arguments. This, however, leads to
+ incompatibility issues with previous versions. Please ensure that you
+ restart Ganeti daemons soon after the upgrade, otherwise most
+ ``LUXI`` calls (job submission, setting/resetting the drain flag,
+ pausing/resuming the watcher, cancelling and archiving jobs, querying
+ the cluster configuration) will fail.
-*(Released Tue, 03 Jul 2012)*
New features
~~~~~~~~~~~~
welcome feedback on the Haskell version which might become the default
in future versions.
+If you want to use ``gnt-node list-drbd`` you need to have the Haskell
+daemon running. The Python version doesn't implement the new call.
+
User interface changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
more safe since two runs in absolute mode will be idempotent, and
sometimes it's also easier to specify the desired size directly.
+Also the handling of instances with regard to offline secondaries has
+been improved. Instance operations should not fail because one of it's
+secondary nodes is offline, even though it's safe to proceed.
+
+A new command ``list-drbd`` has been added to the ``gnt-node`` script to
+support debugging of DRBD issues on nodes. It provides a mapping of DRBD
+minors to instance name.
+
API changes
~~~~~~~~~~~
import-export.
+Version 2.6.0 rc4
+-----------------
+
+*(Released Thu, 19 Jul 2012)*
+
+Very few changes from rc4 to the final release, only bugfixes:
+
+- integrated fixes from release 2.5.2 (fix general boot flag for KVM
+ instance, fix CDROM booting for KVM instances)
+- fixed node group modification of node parameters
+- fixed issue in LUClusterVerifyGroup with multi-group clusters
+- fixed generation of bash completion to ensure a stable ordering
+- fixed a few typos
+
+
+Version 2.6.0 rc3
+-----------------
+
+*(Released Fri, 13 Jul 2012)*
+
+Third release candidate for 2.6. The following changes were done from
+rc3 to rc4:
+
+- Fixed ``UpgradeConfig`` w.r.t. to disk parameters on disk objects.
+- Fixed an inconsistency in the LUXI protocol with the provided
+ arguments (NOT backwards compatible)
+- Fixed a bug with node groups ipolicy where ``min`` was greater than
+ the cluster ``std`` value
+- Implemented a new ``gnt-node list-drbd`` call to list DRBD minors for
+ easier instance debugging on nodes (requires ``hconfd`` to work)
+
+
+Version 2.6.0 rc2
+-----------------
+
+*(Released Tue, 03 Jul 2012)*
+
+Second release candidate for 2.6. The following changes were done from
+rc2 to rc3:
+
+- Fixed ``gnt-cluster verify`` regarding ``master-ip-script`` on non
+ master candidates
+- Fixed a RAPI regression on missing beparams/memory
+- Fixed redistribution of files on offline nodes
+- Added possibility to run activate-disks even though secondaries are
+ offline. With this change it relaxes also the strictness on some other
+ commands which use activate disks internally:
+ * ``gnt-instance start|reboot|rename|backup|export``
+- Made it possible to remove safely an instance if its secondaries are
+ offline
+- Made it possible to reinstall even though secondaries are offline
+
+
Version 2.6.0 rc1
-----------------
- KVM live migration when using a custom keymap
+Version 2.5.2
+-------------
+
+*(Released Tue, 24 Jul 2012)*
+
+A small bugfix release, with no new features:
+
+- fixed bash-isms in kvm-ifup, for compatibility with systems which use a
+ different default shell (e.g. Debian, Ubuntu)
+- fixed KVM startup and live migration with a custom keymap (fixes Issue
+ 243 and Debian bug #650664)
+- fixed compatibility with KVM versions that don't support multiple boot
+ devices (fixes Issue 230 and Debian bug #624256)
+
+Additionally, a few fixes were done to the build system (fixed parallel
+build failures) and to the unittests (fixed race condition in test for
+FileID functions, and the default enable/disable mode for QA test is now
+customisable).
+
