Hello DRBD9 and drbdmanage testers,
we have released version 0.34 of drbdmanage today.
Improvements in this release include:
- New command line parser with tab-completion and
line editing capability in interactive mode
- New powerful list views that allow drbdmanage
to hide distracting information unless it is
explicitly requested, and to enablegrouping of
list entries
- New storage drivers (experimental)
The new drivers have a better ability to check whether
the storage backend has created or removed a volume
as requested by drbdmanage.
The new drivers are:
* LVM logical volume driver:
(Standard logical volumes, no snapshot capability)
drbdmanage.storage.lvm_ng.LvmNg
* LVM multiple thin pools driver:
(One thin pool per new volume and the volume's
snapshot/restore volumes)
drbdmanage.storage.lvm_thinpool_ng.LvmThinPoolNg
* LVM single thin pool driver:
(A single shared thin pool for all volumes and snapshots)
drbdmanage.storage.lvm_thinlv.LvmThinLv
Older implementations of the LVM LV driver and the
LVM multi thin pool driver are still included, however, we
recommend that you switch to the new drivers, as the old
drivers are considered deprecated.
Note that the new drivers will be renamed in future versions.
Configuration file templates for the new drivers are included
in the release packages.
- Fully qualified domain names (FQDN) can be used as a
drbdmanage node name now (the dot character is now allowed
inside a node name)
- A new connection algorithm connects DRBD9 clients only to
server nodes (nodes where a resource has a storage backend),
but not to other clients, thereby reducing the number
of active network connections
- Packaging support for the Debian distribution has been added
You can find the archives at:
http://oss.linbit.com/drbdmanage/
There is also a GIT repository available at:
http://git.drbd.org/gitweb.cgi?p=drbdmanage.git
This is a release that comes with quite a few changes, so if you have
any questions on how to use this new version of drbdmanage or any of its
new components, feel free to post to the mailing list or to visit our
IRC channel at FreeNode #drbd9+drbdmanage.
Best regards,
Robert
