Version 0.0.6 (Mon, 16 Mar 2009): |
---|---|
2 |
- refactored the hbal algorithm to make it stable in the sense that it |
3 |
gives the same solution when restarted from the middle; barring |
4 |
rouding of disk/memory and incomplete reporting from Ganeti (for |
5 |
1.2), it should be now feasible to rely on its output without |
6 |
generating moves ad infinitum |
7 |
- the hbal algorithm now uses two more variables: the node N+1 |
8 |
failures and the amount of reserved memory; the first of which tries |
9 |
to ‘fix’ the N+1 status, the latter tries to distribute secondaries |
10 |
more equally |
11 |
- the hbal algorithm now uses two more moves at each step: |
12 |
replace+failover and failover+replace (besides the original |
13 |
failover, replace, and failover+replace+failover) |
14 |
- slightly changed the build system to embed GIT version/tags into the |
15 |
binaries so that we know for a binary from which tree it was done, |
16 |
either via ‘--version’ or via “strings hbal|grep version” |
17 |
- changed the solution list and in general the hbal output to be more |
18 |
clear by default, and changed “gnt-instance failover” to |
19 |
“gnt-instance migrate” |
20 |
- added man pages for the two binaries |
21 |
|
22 |
Version 0.0.5 (Mon, 09 Mar 2009): |
23 |
- a few small improvements for hbal (possibly undone by later |
24 |
changes), hbal is now quite faster |
25 |
- fix documentation building |
26 |
- allow hbal to work on non N+1 compliant clusters, but without |
27 |
guarantees that the end cluster will be compliant; in any case, this |
28 |
should give a smaller number of nodes that are not compliant if the |
29 |
cluster state permits it |
30 |
- strip common domain suffix from nodes and instances, so that output |
31 |
is shorter and hopefully clearer |
32 |
|
33 |
Version 0.0.4 (Sun, 15 Feb 2009): |
34 |
- better balancing algorithm in hbal |
35 |
- implemented an RAPI collector, now the cluster data can be gathered |
36 |
automatically via RAPI and doesn't need manual export of node and |
37 |
instance list |
38 |
|
39 |
Version 0.0.3 (Wed, 28 Jan 2009): |
40 |
- initial release of the hbal, a cluster rebalancing tool |
41 |
- input data format changed due to hbal requirements |
42 |

Previous version was initial announcement. |
