Hi, in drbd-utils a number of fixes got queued up, so it is time to start a new release cycle of it. Last not least is has a number of important fixes in the drbd-9 user-space parts. On the kernel driver side, it is more than 6 month ago, since the last pre release. A lot was done in the meantime. The most time consuming part was probably the complete merge of the drbd-8.4 branch into the drbd-9 branch. A lot of progress was made on the stability of the driver. Kernel crashes are no longer an issue we are confronted in out day to day work on the code. As long as you do not dig into our test suite drbd-9 behaves mostly reasonable these days. Please let us know if you find issues. This are a release candidates. Do not use in production. drbd-utils 8.9.2rc1 -------- * udev rules (symlinks in /dev/by-res and by-disk) got fixed * Fixed upper limit for drbd-8.4 activity log entries * many fixes to drbdadm adjust and proxy commands for drbd-9 * rhcs_fence: Do not invoke fence agents in parallel, rewrite in bash * drbdsetup events2 is now also available in drbd-8.4 (backported from drbd-9) * reorganized the repository have common code for drbd-9, drbd-8.4 and drbd-8.3 only once * Fix drbd.ocf for resources without volume 0 http://oss.linbit.com/drbd/drbd-utils-8.9.2rc1.tar.gz http://git.drbd.org/gitweb.cgi?p=drbd-utils.git;a=tag;h=refs/tags/v8.9.2rc1 drbd 9.0.0pre10 (api:genl1/proto:86-110) -------- * completed the merge from the 8.4 branch (including debugfs) * final fixes on the reference counts * many fixes to the state engine to express the drbd9 semantics * nodes not directly connected to a newly promoted primary now outdate themselves in the two-phase commit operation * fix disallowing of detach in case the device is opened read only * fixed resync: When a node is SyncSource to multiple targets make sure that all targets get informed about blocks set in sync on the other nodes (Last of those packets was not sent previously) * fixed resync: Sometimes froze due to a forgotten act log entry on secondary nodes * fixes and improvements to the UUID modifications for resync decissions * fixed resync: No longer wake more than one paused resync operations * fixed role changes on resources without volumes http://oss.linbit.com/drbd/9.0/drbd-9.0.0pre10.tar.gz http://git.drbd.org/gitweb.cgi?p=drbd-9.0.git;a=tag;h=refs/tags/drbd-9.0.0pre10
