43 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | Version 2.2.0 rc0 |
44 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | ----------------- |
45 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | |
46 | 41c44dcf | Iustin Pop | *(Released Fri, 30 Jul 2010)* |
47 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | |
48 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | Important change: the internal RPC mechanism between Ganeti nodes has |
49 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | changed from using a home-grown http library (based on the Python base |
50 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | libraries) to use the PycURL library. This requires that PycURL is |
51 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | installed on nodes. Please note that on Debian/Ubuntu, PycURL is linked |
52 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | against GnuTLS by default. cURL's support for GnuTLS had known issues |
53 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | before cURL 7.21.0 and we recommend using the latest cURL release or |
54 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | linking against OpenSSL. Most other distributions already link PycURL |
55 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | and cURL against OpenSSL. The command:: |
56 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | |
57 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | python -c 'import pycurl; print pycurl.version' |
58 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | |
59 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | can be used to determine the libraries PycURL and cURL are linked |
60 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | against. |
61 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | |
62 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | Other significant changes: |
63 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | |
64 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Rewrote much of the internals of the job queue, in order to achieve |
65 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | better parallelism; this decouples job query operations from the job |
66 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | processing, and it should allow much nicer behaviour of the master |
67 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | daemon under load, and it also has uncovered some long-standing bugs |
68 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | related to the job serialisation (now fixed) |
69 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Added a default iallocator setting to the cluster parameters, |
70 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | eliminating the need to always pass nodes or an iallocator for |
71 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | operations that require selection of new node(s) |
72 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Added experimental support for the LXC virtualization method |
73 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Added support for OS parameters, which allows the installation of |
74 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | instances to pass parameter to OS scripts in order to customise the |
75 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | instance |
76 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Added a hypervisor parameter controlling the migration type (live or |
77 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | non-live), since hypervisors have various levels of reliability; this |
78 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | has renamed the 'live' parameter to 'mode' |
79 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Added a cluster parameter ``reserved_lvs`` that denotes reserved |
80 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | logical volumes, meaning that cluster verify will ignore them and not |
81 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | flag their presence as errors |
82 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - The watcher will now reset the error count for failed instances after |
83 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | 8 hours, thus allowing self-healing if the problem that caused the |
84 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | instances to be down/fail to start has cleared in the meantime |
85 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Added a cluster parameter ``drbd_usermode_helper`` that makes Ganeti |
86 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | check for, and warn, if the drbd module parameter ``usermode_helper`` |
87 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | is not consistent with the cluster-wide setting; this is needed to |
88 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | make diagnose easier of failed drbd creations |
89 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Started adding base IPv6 support, but this is not yet |
90 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | enabled/available for use |
91 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Rename operations (cluster, instance) will now return the new name, |
92 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | which is especially useful if a short name was passed in |
93 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Added support for instance migration in RAPI |
94 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Added a tool to pre-configure nodes for the SSH setup, before joining |
95 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | them to the cluster; this will allow in the future a simplified model |
96 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | for node joining (but not yet fully enabled in 2.2); this needs the |
97 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | paramiko python library |
98 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Fixed handling of name-resolving errors |
99 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Fixed consistency of job results on the error path |
100 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Fixed master-failover race condition when executed multiple times in |
101 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | sequence |
102 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Fixed many bugs related to the job queue (mostly introduced during the |
103 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | 2.2 development cycle, so not all are impacting 2.1) |
104 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Fixed instance migration with missing disk symlinks |
105 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Fixed handling of unknown jobs in ``gnt-job archive`` |
106 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - And many other small fixes/improvements |
107 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | |
108 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | Internal changes: |
109 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | |
110 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Enhanced both the unittest and the QA coverage |
111 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Switched the opcode validation to a generic model, and extended the |
112 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | validation to all opcode parameters |
113 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Changed more parts of the code that write shell scripts to use the |
114 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | same class for this |
115 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | - Switched the master daemon to use the asyncore library for the Luxi |
116 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | server endpoint |
117 | 529a8d17 | Iustin Pop | |

122 | a0a470fa | Michael Hanselmann | *(Released Thu, 17 Jun 2010)* |
123 | ab221ddf | Michael Hanselmann | |
124 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | - Added tool (``move-instance``) and infrastructure to move instances |
125 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | between separate clusters (see :doc:`separate documentation |
126 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | <move-instance>` and :doc:`design document <design-2.2>`) |
127 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | - Added per-request RPC timeout |
128 | ab221ddf | Michael Hanselmann | - RAPI now requires a Content-Type header for requests with a body (e.g. |
129 | ab221ddf | Michael Hanselmann | ``PUT`` or ``POST``) which must be set to ``application/json`` (see |
130 | a4978169 | Michael Hanselmann | :rfc:`2616` (HTTP/1.1), section 7.2.1) |
131 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | - ``ganeti-watcher`` attempts to restart ``ganeti-rapi`` if RAPI is not |
132 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | reachable |
133 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | - Implemented initial support for running Ganeti daemons as separate |
134 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | users, see configure-time flags ``--with-user-prefix`` and |
135 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | ``--with-group-prefix`` (only ``ganeti-rapi`` is supported at this |
136 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | time) |
137 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | - Instances can be removed after export (``gnt-backup export |
138 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | --remove-instance``) |
139 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | - Self-signed certificates generated by Ganeti now use a 2048 bit RSA |
140 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | key (instead of 1024 bit) |
141 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | - Added new cluster configuration file for cluster domain secret |
142 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | - Import/export now use SSL instead of SSH |
143 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | - Added support for showing estimated time when exporting an instance, |
144 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | see the ``ganeti-os-interface(7)`` manpage and look for |
145 | e0897adf | Michael Hanselmann | ``EXP_SIZE_FD`` |

151 | 6845d276 | Guido Trotter | |
152 | 6845d276 | Guido Trotter | Bugfixes only: |
153 | 6845d276 | Guido Trotter | - Don't ignore secondary node silently on non-mirrored disk templates |
154 | 6845d276 | Guido Trotter | (issue 113) |

165 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | ------------- |
166 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | |
167 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | *(Released Fri, 16 Jul 2010)* |
168 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | |
169 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | Bugfixes only: |
170 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | - Add an option to only select some reboot types during qa/burnin. |
171 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | (on some hypervisors consequent reboots are not supported) |
172 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | - Fix infrequent race condition in master failover. Sometimes the old |
173 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | master ip address would be still detected as up for a short time |
174 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | after it was removed, causing failover to fail. |
175 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | - Decrease mlockall warnings when the ctypes module is missing. On |
176 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | Python 2.4 we support running even if no ctypes module is installed, |
177 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | but we were too verbose about this issue. |
178 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | - Fix building on old distributions, on which man doesn't have a |
179 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | --warnings option. |
180 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | - Fix RAPI not to ignore the MAC address on instance creation |
181 | ae828011 | Guido Trotter | - Implement the old instance creation format in the RAPI client. |

188 | 71cba20b | Guido Trotter | |
189 | 71cba20b | Guido Trotter | A small bugfix release: |
190 | 71cba20b | Guido Trotter | - Fix disk adoption: broken by strict --disk option checking in 2.1.4 |
191 | 71cba20b | Guido Trotter | - Fix batch-create: broken in the whole 2.1 series due to a lookup on |
192 | 71cba20b | Guido Trotter | a non-existing option |
193 | 71cba20b | Guido Trotter | - Fix instance create: the --force-variant option was ignored |
194 | 1d4c743d | Guido Trotter | - Improve pylint 0.21 compatibility and warnings with Python 2.6 |
195 | 1d4c743d | Guido Trotter | - Fix modify node storage with non-FQDN arguments |

207 | c1a25b88 | Guido Trotter | A small bugfix release: |
208 | c1a25b88 | Guido Trotter | |
209 | c1a25b88 | Guido Trotter | - Fix live migration of KVM instances started with older Ganeti |
210 | c1a25b88 | Guido Trotter | versions which had fewer hypervisor parameters |
211 | c1a25b88 | Guido Trotter | - Fix gnt-instance grow-disk on down instances |
212 | c1a25b88 | Guido Trotter | - Fix an error-reporting bug during instance migration |
213 | c1a25b88 | Guido Trotter | - Better checking of the ``--net`` and ``--disk`` values, to avoid |

219 | c1a25b88 | Guido Trotter | parameters would fail to be applied. |
220 | 3ef56ab6 | Guido Trotter | - Fix the RAPI client under Python 2.6 (but more work is needed to |
221 | 3ef56ab6 | Guido Trotter | make it work completely well with OpenSSL) |
222 | 3ef56ab6 | Guido Trotter | - Fix handling of errors when resolving names from DNS |

225 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | Version 2.1.3 |
226 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | ------------- |
227 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | |
228 | 7cf722ea | Guido Trotter | *(Released Thu, 3 Jun 2010)* |
229 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | |
230 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | A medium sized development cycle. Some new features, and some |
231 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | fixes/small improvements/cleanups. |
232 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | |
233 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | Significant features |
234 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
235 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | |
236 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | The node deamon now tries to mlock itself into memory, unless the |
237 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | ``--no-mlock`` flag is passed. It also doesn't fail if it can't write |
238 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | its logs, and falls back to console logging. This allows emergency |
239 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | features such as ``gnt-node powercycle`` to work even in the event of a |
240 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | broken node disk (tested offlining the disk hosting the node's |
241 | 722702e3 | Guido Trotter | filesystem and dropping its memory caches; don't try this at home) |
242 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | |
243 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | KVM: add vhost-net acceleration support. It can be tested with a new |
244 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | enough version of the kernel and of qemu-kvm. |
245 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | |
246 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | KVM: Add instance chrooting feature. If you use privilege dropping for |
247 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | your VMs you can also now force them to chroot to an empty directory, |
248 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | before starting the emulated guest. |
249 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | |
250 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | KVM: Add maximum migration bandwith and maximum downtime tweaking |
251 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | support (requires a new-enough version of qemu-kvm). |
252 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | |
253 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | Cluster verify will now warn if the master node doesn't have the master |
254 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | ip configured on it. |
255 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | |
256 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | Add a new (incompatible) instance creation request format to RAPI which |
257 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | supports all parameters (previously only a subset was supported, and it |
258 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | wasn't possible to extend the old format to accomodate all the new |
259 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | features. The old format is still supported, and a client can check for |
260 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | this feature, before using it, by checking for its presence in the |
261 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | ``features`` RAPI resource. |
262 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | |
263 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | Now with ancient latin support. Try it passing the ``--roman`` option to |
264 | 722702e3 | Guido Trotter | ``gnt-instance info``, ``gnt-cluster info`` or ``gnt-node list`` |
265 | 722702e3 | Guido Trotter | (requires the python-roman module to be installed, in order to work). |
266 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | |
267 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | Other changes |
268 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
269 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | |
270 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | As usual many internal code refactorings, documentation updates, and |
271 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | such. Among others: |
272 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | |
273 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | - Lots of improvements and cleanups to the experimental Remote API |
274 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | (RAPI) client library. |
275 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | - A new unit test suite for the core daemon libraries. |
276 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | - A fix to creating missing directories makes sure the umask is not |
277 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | applied anymore. This enforces the same directory permissions |
278 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | everywhere. |
279 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | - Better handling terminating daemons with ctrl+c (used when running |
280 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | them in debugging mode). |
281 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | - Fix a race condition in live migrating a KVM instance, when stat() |
282 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | on the old proc status file returned EINVAL, which is an unexpected |
283 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | value. |
284 | 1de45c78 | Guido Trotter | - Fixed manpage checking with newer man and utf-8 charachters. But now |
285 | 1de45c78 | Guido Trotter | you need the en_US.UTF-8 locale enabled to build Ganeti from git. |
286 | 14d91053 | Guido Trotter | |

298 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | |
299 | ace6cbe8 | Iustin Pop | *(Released Fri, 7 May 2010)* |
300 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | |
301 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | Another release with a long development cycle, during which many |
302 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | different features were added. |
303 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | |
304 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | Significant features |
305 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
306 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | |
307 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | The KVM hypervisor now can run the individual instances as non-root, to |
308 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | reduce the impact of a VM being hijacked due to bugs in the |
309 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | hypervisor. It is possible to run all instances as a single (non-root) |
310 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | user, to manually specify a user for each instance, or to dynamically |
311 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | allocate a user out of a cluster-wide pool to each instance, with the |
312 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | guarantee that no two instances will run under the same user ID on any |
313 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | given node. |
314 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | |
315 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | An experimental RAPI client library, that can be used standalone |
316 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | (without the other Ganeti libraries), is provided in the source tree as |
317 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | ``lib/rapi/client.py``. Note this client might change its interface in |
318 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | the future, as we iterate on its capabilities. |
319 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | |
320 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | A new command, ``gnt-cluster renew-crypto`` has been added to easily |
321 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | replace the cluster's certificates and crypto keys. This might help in |
322 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | case they have been compromised, or have simply expired. |
323 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | |
324 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | A new disk option for instance creation has been added that allows one |
325 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | to "adopt" currently existing logical volumes, with data |
326 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | preservation. This should allow easier migration to Ganeti from |
327 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | unmanaged (or managed via other software) instances. |
328 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | |
329 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | Another disk improvement is the possibility to convert between redundant |
330 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | (DRBD) and plain (LVM) disk configuration for an instance. This should |
331 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | allow better scalability (starting with one node and growing the |
332 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | cluster, or shrinking a two-node cluster to one node). |
333 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | |
334 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | A new feature that could help with automated node failovers has been |
335 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | implemented: if a node sees itself as offline (by querying the master |
336 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | candidates), it will try to shutdown (hard) all instances and any active |
337 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | DRBD devices. This reduces the risk of duplicate instances if an |
338 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | external script automatically failovers the instances on such nodes. To |
339 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | enable this, the cluster parameter ``maintain_node_health`` should be |
340 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | enabled; in the future this option (per the name) will enable other |
341 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | automatic maintenance features. |
342 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | |
343 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | Instance export/import now will reuse the original instance |
344 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | specifications for all parameters; that means exporting an instance, |
345 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | deleting it and the importing it back should give an almost identical |
346 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | instance. Note that the default import behaviour has changed from |
347 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | before, where it created only one NIC; now it recreates the original |
348 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | number of NICs. |
349 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | |
350 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | Cluster verify has added a few new checks: SSL certificates validity, |
351 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | /etc/hosts consistency across the cluster, etc. |
352 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | |
353 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | Other changes |
354 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
355 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | |
356 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | As usual, many internal changes were done, documentation fixes, |
357 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | etc. Among others: |
358 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | |
359 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - Fixed cluster initialization with disabled cluster storage (regression |
360 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | introduced in 2.1.1) |
361 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - File-based storage supports growing the disks |
362 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - Fixed behaviour of node role changes |
363 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - Fixed cluster verify for some corner cases, plus a general rewrite of |
364 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | cluster verify to allow future extension with more checks |
365 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - Fixed log spamming by watcher and node daemon (regression introduced |
366 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | in 2.1.1) |
367 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - Fixed possible validation issues when changing the list of enabled |
368 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | hypervisors |
369 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - Fixed cleanup of /etc/hosts during node removal |
370 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - Fixed RAPI response for invalid methods |
371 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - Fixed bug with hashed passwords in ``ganeti-rapi`` daemon |
372 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - Multiple small improvements to the KVM hypervisor (VNC usage, booting |
373 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | from ide disks, etc.) |
374 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - Allow OS changes without re-installation (to record a changed OS |
375 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | outside of Ganeti, or to allow OS renames) |
376 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - Allow instance creation without OS installation (useful for example if |
377 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | the OS will be installed manually, or restored from a backup not in |
378 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | Ganeti format) |
379 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - Implemented option to make cluster ``copyfile`` use the replication |
380 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | network |
381 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - Added list of enabled hypervisors to ssconf (possibly useful for |
382 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | external scripts) |
383 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - Added a new tool (``tools/cfgupgrade12``) that allows upgrading from |
384 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | 1.2 clusters |
385 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - A partial form of node re-IP is possible via node readd, which now |
386 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | allows changed node primary IP |
387 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - Command line utilities now show an informational message if the job is |
388 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | waiting for a lock |
389 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | - The logs of the master daemon now show the PID/UID/GID of the |
390 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | connected client |
391 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | |
392 | ba538816 | Iustin Pop | |
393 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | Version 2.1.1 |
394 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | ------------- |
395 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | |
396 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | *(Released Fri, 12 Mar 2010)* |
397 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | |
398 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | During the 2.1.0 long release candidate cycle, a lot of improvements and |
399 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | changes have accumulated with were released later as 2.1.1. |
400 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | |
401 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | Major changes |
402 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
403 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | |
404 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | The node evacuate command (``gnt-node evacuate``) was significantly |
405 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | rewritten, and as such the IAllocator protocol was changed - a new |
406 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | request type has been added. This unfortunate change during a stable |
407 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | series is designed to improve performance of node evacuations; on |
408 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | clusters with more than about five nodes and which are well-balanced, |
409 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | evacuation should proceed in parallel for all instances of the node |
410 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | being evacuated. As such, any existing IAllocator scripts need to be |
411 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | updated, otherwise the above command will fail due to the unknown |
412 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | request. The provided "dumb" allocator has not been updated; but the |
413 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | ganeti-htools package supports the new protocol since version 0.2.4. |
414 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | |
415 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | Another important change is increased validation of node and instance |
416 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | names. This might create problems in special cases, if invalid host |
417 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | names are being used. |
418 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | |
419 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | Also, a new layer of hypervisor parameters has been added, that sits at |
420 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | OS level between the cluster defaults and the instance ones. This allows |
421 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | customisation of virtualization parameters depending on the installed |
422 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | OS. For example instances with OS 'X' may have a different KVM kernel |
423 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | (or any other parameter) than the cluster defaults. This is intended to |
424 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | help managing a multiple OSes on the same cluster, without manual |
425 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | modification of each instance's parameters. |
426 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | |
427 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | A tool for merging clusters, ``cluster-merge``, has been added in the |
428 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | tools sub-directory. |
429 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | |
430 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | Bug fixes |
431 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | ~~~~~~~~~ |
432 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | |
433 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Improved the int/float conversions that should make the code more |
434 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | robust in face of errors from the node daemons |
435 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Fixed the remove node code in case of internal configuration errors |
436 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Fixed the node daemon behaviour in face of inconsistent queue |
437 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | directory (e.g. read-only file-system where we can't open the files |
438 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | read-write, etc.) |
439 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Fixed the behaviour of gnt-node modify for master candidate demotion; |
440 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | now it either aborts cleanly or, if given the new โauto_promoteโ |
441 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | parameter, will automatically promote other nodes as needed |
442 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Fixed compatibility with (unreleased yet) Python 2.6.5 that would |
443 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | completely prevent Ganeti from working |
444 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Fixed bug for instance export when not all disks were successfully |
445 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | exported |
446 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Fixed behaviour of node add when the new node is slow in starting up |
447 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | the node daemon |
448 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Fixed handling of signals in the LUXI client, which should improve |
449 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | behaviour of command-line scripts |
450 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Added checks for invalid node/instance names in the configuration (now |
451 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | flagged during cluster verify) |
452 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Fixed watcher behaviour for disk activation errors |
453 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Fixed two potentially endless loops in http library, which led to the |
454 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | RAPI daemon hanging and consuming 100% CPU in some cases |
455 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Fixed bug in RAPI daemon related to hashed passwords |
456 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Fixed bug for unintended qemu-level bridging of multi-NIC KVM |
457 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | instances |
458 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Enhanced compatibility with non-Debian OSes, but not using absolute |
459 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | path in some commands and allowing customisation of the ssh |
460 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | configuration directory |
461 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Fixed possible future issue with new Python versions by abiding to the |
462 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | proper use of ``__slots__`` attribute on classes |
463 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Added checks that should prevent directory traversal attacks |
464 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Many documentation fixes based on feedback from users |
465 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | |
466 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | New features |
467 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | ~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
468 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | |
469 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Added an โearly_releaseโ more for instance replace disks and node |
470 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | evacuate, where we release locks earlier and thus allow higher |
471 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | parallelism within the cluster |
472 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Added watcher hooks, intended to allow the watcher to restart other |
473 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | daemons (e.g. from the ganeti-nbma project), but they can be used of |
474 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | course for any other purpose |
475 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Added a compile-time disable for DRBD barriers, to increase |
476 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | performance if the administrator trusts the power supply or the |
477 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | storage system to not lose writes |
478 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Added the option of using syslog for logging instead of, or in |
479 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | addition to, Ganeti's own log files |
480 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Removed boot restriction for paravirtual NICs for KVM, recent versions |
481 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | can indeed boot from a paravirtual NIC |
482 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Added a generic debug level for many operations; while this is not |
483 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | used widely yet, it allows one to pass the debug value all the way to |
484 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | the OS scripts |
485 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Enhanced the hooks environment for instance moves (failovers, |
486 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | migrations) where the primary/secondary nodes changed during the |
487 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | operation, by adding {NEW,OLD}_{PRIMARY,SECONDARY} vars |
488 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Enhanced data validations for many user-supplied values; one important |
489 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | item is the restrictions imposed on instance and node names, which |
490 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | might reject some (invalid) host names |
491 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Add a configure-time option to disable file-based storage, if it's not |
492 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | needed; this allows greater security separation between the master |
493 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | node and the other nodes from the point of view of the inter-node RPC |
494 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | protocol |
495 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Added user notification in interactive tools if job is waiting in the |
496 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | job queue or trying to acquire locks |
497 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Added log messages when a job is waiting for locks |
498 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Added filtering by node tags in instance operations which admit |
499 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | multiple instances (start, stop, reboot, reinstall) |
500 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Added a new tool for cluster mergers, ``cluster-merge`` |
501 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - Parameters from command line which are of the form ``a=b,c=d`` can now |
502 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | use backslash escapes to pass in values which contain commas, |
503 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | e.g. ``a=b\\c,d=e`` where the 'a' parameter would get the value |
504 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | ``b,c`` |
505 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | - For KVM, the instance name is the first parameter passed to KVM, so |
506 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | that it's more visible in the process list |
507 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | |
508 | c655522d | Iustin Pop | |

513 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | |
514 | 920a91bf | Michael Hanselmann | Ganeti 2.1 brings many improvements with it. Major changes: |
515 | 920a91bf | Michael Hanselmann | |
516 | 920a91bf | Michael Hanselmann | - Added infrastructure to ease automated disk repairs |
517 | 920a91bf | Michael Hanselmann | - Added new daemon to export configuration data in a cheaper way than |
518 | 920a91bf | Michael Hanselmann | using the remote API |
519 | 920a91bf | Michael Hanselmann | - Instance NICs can now be routed instead of being associated with a |
520 | 920a91bf | Michael Hanselmann | networking bridge |
521 | 920a91bf | Michael Hanselmann | - Improved job locking logic to reduce impact of jobs acquiring multiple |
522 | 920a91bf | Michael Hanselmann | locks waiting for other long-running jobs |
523 | 920a91bf | Michael Hanselmann | |
524 | bfe61b0b | Iustin Pop | In-depth implementation details can be found in the Ganeti 2.1 design |

679 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | |
680 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | *(Released Fri, 7 Aug 2009)* |
681 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | |
682 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Added ``--ignore-size`` to the ``gnt-instance activate-disks`` command |
683 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | to allow using the pre-2.0.2 behaviour in activation, if any existing |
684 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | instances have mismatched disk sizes in the configuration |
685 | 7faf5110 | Michael Hanselmann | - Added ``gnt-cluster repair-disk-sizes`` command to check and update |
686 | 7faf5110 | Michael Hanselmann | any configuration mismatches for disk sizes |
687 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Added ``gnt-master cluste-failover --no-voting`` to allow master |

698 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | *(Released Fri, 17 Jul 2009)* |
699 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | |
700 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Added experimental support for stripped logical volumes; this should |
701 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | enhance performance but comes with a higher complexity in the block |
702 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | device handling; stripping is only enabled when passing |
703 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | ``--with-lvm-stripecount=N`` to ``configure``, but codepaths are |
704 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | affected even in the non-stripped mode |
705 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Improved resiliency against transient failures at the end of DRBD |
706 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | resyncs, and in general of DRBD resync checks |

711 | aa287e8c | Michael Hanselmann | - Fixed handling of the "vcpus" parameter in instance listing and in |
712 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | general of invalid parameters |
713 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Fixed http server library, and thus RAPI, to handle invalid |
714 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | username/password combinations correctly; this means that now they |
715 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | report unauthorized for queries too, not only for modifications, |
716 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | allowing earlier detect of configuration problems |
717 | aa287e8c | Michael Hanselmann | - Added a new "role" node list field, equivalent to the master/master |
718 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | candidate/drained/offline flags combinations |

723 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Added non-interactive mode for ``ganeti-masterd --no-voting`` startup |
724 | aa287e8c | Michael Hanselmann | - Added a new ``--no-voting`` option for masterfailover to fix failover |
725 | aa287e8c | Michael Hanselmann | on two-nodes clusters when the former master node is unreachable |
726 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Added instance reinstall over RAPI |

731 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | |
732 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | *(Released Tue, 16 Jun 2009)* |
733 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | |
734 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - added ``-H``/``-B`` startup parameters to ``gnt-instance``, which will |
735 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | allow re-adding the start in single-user option (regression from 1.2) |
736 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - the watcher writes the instance status to a file, to allow monitoring |
737 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | to report the instance status (from the master) based on cached |
738 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | results of the watcher's queries; while this can get stale if the |
739 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | watcher is being locked due to other work on the cluster, this is |
740 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | still an improvement |
741 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - the watcher now also restarts the node daemon and the rapi daemon if |
742 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | they died |
743 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - fixed the watcher to handle full and drained queue cases |
744 | 7faf5110 | Michael Hanselmann | - hooks export more instance data in the environment, which helps if |
745 | 7faf5110 | Michael Hanselmann | hook scripts need to take action based on the instance's properties |
746 | 7faf5110 | Michael Hanselmann | (no longer need to query back into ganeti) |
747 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - instance failovers when the instance is stopped do not check for free |
748 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | RAM, so that failing over a stopped instance is possible in low memory |
749 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | situations |
750 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - rapi uses queries for tags instead of jobs (for less job traffic), and |
751 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | for cluster tags it won't talk to masterd at all but read them from |
752 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | ssconf |
753 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - a couple of error handling fixes in RAPI |
754 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - drbd handling: improved the error handling of inconsistent disks after |
755 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | resync to reduce the frequency of "there are some degraded disks for |
756 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | this instance" messages |
757 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - fixed a bug in live migration when DRBD doesn't want to reconnect (the |
758 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | error handling path called a wrong function name) |

787 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | volume group is broken |
788 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - ``gnt-instance info``, without any arguments, doesn't run for all |
789 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | instances anymore; either pass ``--all`` or pass the desired |
790 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | instances; this helps against mistakes on big clusters where listing |

840 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | |
841 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Xen PVM and KVM have switched the default value for the instance root |
842 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | disk to the first partition on the first drive, instead of the whole |
843 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | drive; this means that the OS installation scripts must be changed |
844 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | accordingly |
845 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Man pages have been updated |
846 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - RAPI has been switched by default to HTTPS, and the exported functions |
847 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | should all work correctly |
848 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - RAPI v1 has been removed |
849 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Many improvements to the KVM hypervisor |

858 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | |
859 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Version 2 is a general rewrite of the code and therefore the |
860 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | differences are too many to list, see the design document for 2.0 in |
861 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | the ``doc/`` subdirectory for more details |
862 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - In this beta version there is not yet a migration path from 1.2 (there |
863 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | will be one in the final 2.0 release) |
864 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - A few significant changes are: |
865 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | |
866 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - all commands are executed by a daemon (``ganeti-masterd``) and the |
867 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | various ``gnt-*`` commands are just front-ends to it |
868 | 7faf5110 | Michael Hanselmann | - all the commands are entered into, and executed from a job queue, |
869 | 7faf5110 | Michael Hanselmann | see the ``gnt-job(8)`` manpage |
870 | 7faf5110 | Michael Hanselmann | - the RAPI daemon supports read-write operations, secured by basic |
871 | 7faf5110 | Michael Hanselmann | HTTP authentication on top of HTTPS |
872 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - DRBD version 0.7 support has been removed, DRBD 8 is the only |
873 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | supported version (when migrating from Ganeti 1.2 to 2.0, you need |
874 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | to migrate to DRBD 8 first while still running Ganeti 1.2) |
875 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - DRBD devices are using statically allocated minor numbers, which |
876 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | will be assigned to existing instances during the migration process |
877 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - there is support for both Xen PVM and Xen HVM instances running on |
878 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | the same cluster |
879 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - KVM virtualization is supported too |
880 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - file-based storage has been implemented, which means that it is |
881 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | possible to run the cluster without LVM and DRBD storage, for |
882 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | example using a shared filesystem exported from shared storage (and |
883 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | still have live migration) |

892 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Reuse the old instance mac address by default on instance import, if |
893 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | the instance name is the same. |
894 | 7faf5110 | Michael Hanselmann | - Handle situations in which the node info rpc returns incomplete |
895 | 7faf5110 | Michael Hanselmann | results (issue 46) |
896 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Add checks for tcp/udp ports collisions in ``gnt-cluster verify`` |

902 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | |
903 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Add an option to show the number of cpu sockets and nodes in |
904 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | ``gnt-node list`` |
905 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Support OSes that handle more than one version of the OS api (but do |
906 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | not change the current API in any other way) |
907 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Fix ``gnt-node migrate`` |
908 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - ``gnt-debug`` man page |

916 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | *(Released Wed, 24 Sep 2008)* |
917 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | |
918 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - new ``--hvm-nic-type`` and ``--hvm-disk-type`` flags to control the |
919 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | type of disk exported to fully virtualized instances. |
920 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - provide access to the serial console of HVM instances |
921 | 7faf5110 | Michael Hanselmann | - instance auto_balance flag, set by default. If turned off it will |
922 | 7faf5110 | Michael Hanselmann | avoid warnings on cluster verify if there is not enough memory to fail |
923 | 7faf5110 | Michael Hanselmann | over an instance. in the future it will prevent automatically failing |
924 | 7faf5110 | Michael Hanselmann | it over when we will support that. |
925 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - batcher tool for instance creation, see ``tools/README.batcher`` |
926 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - ``gnt-instance reinstall --select-os`` to interactively select a new |
927 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | operating system when reinstalling an instance. |
928 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - when changing the memory amount on instance modify a check has been |
929 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | added that the instance will be able to start. also warnings are |
930 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | emitted if the instance will not be able to fail over, if auto_balance |
931 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | is true. |
932 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - documentation fixes |
933 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - sync fields between ``gnt-instance list/modify/add/import`` |
934 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - fix a race condition in drbd when the sync speed was set after giving |
935 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | the device a remote peer. |
936 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | |

941 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | *(Released Tue, 22 Jul 2008)* |
942 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | |
943 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - note: the allowed size and number of tags per object were reduced |
944 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - fix a bug in ``gnt-cluster verify`` with inconsistent volume groups |
945 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - fixed twisted 8.x compatibility |

947 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - add TCP keepalives on twisted connections to detect restarted nodes |
948 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - disk increase support, see ``gnt-instance grow-disk`` |
949 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - implement bulk node/instance query for RAPI |
950 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - add tags in node/instance listing (optional) |
951 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - experimental migration (and live migration) support, read the man page |
952 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | for ``gnt-instance migrate`` |
953 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - the ``ganeti-watcher`` logs are now timestamped, and the watcher also |
954 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | has some small improvements in handling its state file |
955 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | |
956 | 10f31783 | Iustin Pop | |
957 | 10f31783 | Iustin Pop | Version 1.2.4 |
958 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | ------------- |
959 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | |
960 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | *(Released Fri, 13 Jun 2008)* |
961 | bdc93557 | Iustin Pop | |
962 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Experimental readonly, REST-based remote API implementation; |
963 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | automatically started on master node, TCP port 5080, if enabled by |
964 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | ``--enable-rapi`` parameter to configure script. |
965 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - Instance allocator support. Add and import instance accept a |
966 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | ``--iallocator`` parameter, and call that instance allocator to decide |
967 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | which node to use for the instance. The iallocator document describes |
968 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | what's expected from an allocator script. |
969 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - ``gnt-cluster verify`` N+1 memory redundancy checks: Unless passed the |
970 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | ``--no-nplus1-mem`` option ``gnt-cluster verify`` now checks that if a |
971 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | node is lost there is still enough memory to fail over the instances |
972 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | that reside on it. |
973 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - ``gnt-cluster verify`` hooks: it is now possible to add post-hooks to |
974 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | ``gnt-cluster verify``, to check for site-specific compliance. All the |
975 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | hooks will run, and their output, if any, will be displayed. Any |
976 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | failing hook will make the verification return an error value. |
977 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - ``gnt-cluster verify`` now checks that its peers are reachable on the |
978 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | primary and secondary interfaces |
979 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - ``gnt-node add`` now supports the ``--readd`` option, to readd a node |
980 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | that is still declared as part of the cluster and has failed. |
981 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - ``gnt-* list`` commands now accept a new ``-o +field`` way of |
982 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | specifying output fields, that just adds the chosen fields to the |
983 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | default ones. |
984 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - ``gnt-backup`` now has a new ``remove`` command to delete an existing |
985 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | export from the filesystem. |
986 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - New per-instance parameters hvm_acpi, hvm_pae and hvm_cdrom_image_path |
987 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | have been added. Using them you can enable/disable acpi and pae |
988 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | support, and specify a path for a cd image to be exported to the |
989 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | instance. These parameters as the name suggest only work on HVM |
990 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | clusters. |
991 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - When upgrading an HVM cluster to Ganeti 1.2.4, the values for ACPI and |
992 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | PAE support will be set to the previously hardcoded values, but the |
993 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | (previously hardcoded) path to the CDROM ISO image will be unset and |
994 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | if required, needs to be set manually with ``gnt-instance modify`` |
995 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | after the upgrade. |
996 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - The address to which an instance's VNC console is bound is now |
997 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | selectable per-instance, rather than being cluster wide. Of course |
998 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | this only applies to instances controlled via VNC, so currently just |
999 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | applies to HVM clusters. |

1009 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | one combined status field (see the manpage for the exact values this |
1010 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | field will have) |
1011 | 61b5e342 | Michael Hanselmann | - some more fixes for the mac export to hooks change |
