Heartbeat 0.4.8c now on web site

Hi,

Heartbeat 0.4.8c is now on the Linux-HA web site.

It contains the following features beyond 0.4.8:

+ Incorporated new ldirectord version
+ Added STONITH API library
+ Added STONITH option to heartbeat (stonith)
+ Added heartbeat API code
+ Added late heartbeat warning for heartbeats that arrive later than
0.75 of deadtime (warntime option)
+ Added better protection against replay attacks
+ Added detection of and recovery from cluster partitions
+ Added ping node/membership/link type for tiebreaking. This will
be useful when implementing quorum on 2-node systems.
+ Fixed byte-ordering problem related to output in findif.c.
There are probably more, related to input ;-)
+ More SuSE-compatibility changes thanks to Marius Tomaschewski
<mt@suse.de>

The STONITH API library is now a library, not just a .o file ;-)

The heartbeat API library is now also a library.

The following problems still exist:
The heartbeat API still needs some minor revisions
The cluster partition recovery is still not all there.
(but I think I know what to do about it now)

Other than this, it seems to be in pretty good shape.

But it doesn't work. It is missing some essential libraries that happen to
be on my system.

Sorry!

I've also noticed that the rpm build doesn't properly install the init
scripts:

Processing files: heartbeat-0.4.8c-1
File not found: /var/tmp/heartbeat-root/etc/rc.d/init.d/heartbeat
File not found: /var/tmp/heartbeat-root/etc/rc.d/init.d/ldirectord

This is probably the result of the missing libraries. Hopefully I'll have a
'd' version up on the site in an hour or so...

Sorry!

The 'd' version is now up on the web site. I also seemed to have gotten a
reasonable fix in for the partitioned cluster problem (I just restart
whoever discovers it, after giving up resources).
