Dear DRBD and WinDRBD users,<br>
<br>
I spent a lot of time working on LINSTOR for Windows, which I expect
to be<br>
merged into upstream LINSTOR later this year. Therefore the WinDRBD<br>
development was on hold for a time, but now we continue (besides
others<br>
making SyncSource much faster).<br>
<br>
Working with LINSTOR also revealed hard to trigger WinDRBD / DRBD
bugs, <br>
some of which are fixed with this release canidate.<br>
<br>
From the WHATSNEW.md file:<br>
<br>
<font face="monospace">What's new in version 1.1.0-rc2<br>
---------------------------<br>
<br>
Can install self-signed WinDRBD driver via ssh<br>
<br>
Improve sync speed when sync source<br>
<br>
Fixed a WinDRBD stuckness on drbdadm secondary when there was more<br>
than one Volume.<br>
<br>
Fixed online resize while connected.<br>
<br>
</font>So, if you want to give this release canidate a try, please
do!<br>
<br>
You can download the installer from:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://linbit.com/linbit-software-download-page-for-linstor-and-drbd-linux-driver/">https://linbit.com/linbit-software-download-page-for-linstor-and-drbd-linux-driver/</a><br>
<br>
If you wish to build WinDRBD from source, here is the sounrde repo
on github:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/LINBIT/windrbd">https://github.com/LINBIT/windrbd</a><br>
<br>
Since for building WinDRBD still a mixed Linux/Windows build setup
is necessary<br>
I recommend to use the installer if you just want to use (and not to
develop for)<br>
WinDRBD. I am working on making build possible on Linux only (using
Wine for<br>
the Windows part).<br>
<br>
Best wishes and please let us know about feature requests, bug
reports and more<br>
stuff regarding WinDRBD, either on github or by eMail, <br>
<br>
