GANETI-INSTANCE-IMAGE |
122 |
* A new version of ganeti-instance-image is required (v0.5.1-1-snf1). |
123 |
The new version is available for download as a debian package: |
124 |
https://code.grnet.gr/projects/gnt-instance-image/files |
125 |
|
126 |
COMPONENTS |
127 |
* snf-ganeti-tools must be rebuilt, see snf-ganeti-tools/debian/ |
128 |
for Debian packaging. |
129 |

LOGGING |

to /var/log/synnefo/dispatcher.log, redirecting stderr and stdout there |

QUEUES |
141 |
* Changed default routing key naming for queues. Queues must be redeclared. |
142 |
The suggested upgrade path is to delete ALL (even obsolete) existing |
143 |
queues and restart the dispatcher. To do so, download amqp-utils from |
144 |
|
145 |
https://github.com/dougbarth/amqp-utils |
146 |
|
147 |
and run the amqp-deleteq tool for each declared queue. Alternatively, |
148 |
amqp-utils can be installed with: sudo gem install amqp-utils. |
149 |
|
150 |
UI |
151 |
* Feedback form now uses django native send_mail for sending emails. |
