Hello everyone,
Today, I have two major announcements to make: crmsh is moving to a
new location, and I'm releasing the next major version of the crm
shell!
== Find us at crmsh.github.io
Since the rest of the High-Availability stack is being developed over
at Github, we thought it would make things easier to move crmsh over
there as well. This means we're not only moving the website and issue
tracker, we're also switching from Mercurial to git.
From this release forward, you will find everything crmsh-related at
http://crmsh.github.io, and the source code at
https://github.com/crmsh/crmsh.
Here are the new URLs related to crmsh:
* Website: http://crmsh.github.io/
* Documentation: http://crmsh.github.io/documentation.html
* Source repository: https://github.com/crmsh/crmsh/
* Issue tracker: https://github.com/crmsh/crmsh/issues/
Not everything has moved quite yet, but the source code and web site
are in place.
== New stable release: crmsh 2.0
Secondly, we are proud to finally release crmsh 2.0! This is the
version of crmsh I have been developing since I became a maintainer
last year, and there are a lot of new and improved features in this
release.
For a more complete list of changes since the previous version, please
refer to the changelog:
* https://github.com/crmsh/crmsh/blob/2.0.0/ChangeLog
Packages for several popular Linux distributions (updated soon):
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/ha-clustering:/Stable/
Zip archive of the tagged release:
* https://github.com/crmsh/crmsh/archive/2.0.0.zip
Here is a short list of some of the biggest changes and features in
crmsh 2.0:
* *More stable than ever before!* Many bugs and issues have been
fixed, with plenty of help from the community. At the same time,
this is a major release with many new features. Testing and pull
requests are more than welcome!
* *Cluster management commands.* We've added a couple of new
sub-levels that help with the installation and management of the
cluster, as well as maintaining and synchronizing the corosync
configuration across nodes. There are now commands for starting and
stopping the cluster services, as well as cluster scripts that
make the installation and configuration of cluster-controlled
resources a one-line command.
* *Cleaner CLI syntax.* The parser for the configure syntax of
crmsh has been rewritten, allowing for cleaner syntax, better
error detection and improved error messages.
* *Tab completion everywhere.* Now tab completion works not only in
the interactive mode, but directly from bash. In addition, the
completion back end has been completely rewritten and many more
commands now have full completion. It's not quite every single
command yet, but we're getting there.
* *New and improved configuration.* The new configuration file is
installed in /etc/crm/crm.conf by default or per user if desired,
and allows for a much more flexible configuration of crmsh.
* *Cluster health evaluation.* As part of the cluster script
functionality, there is now a cluster health command which
analyses and reports on low disk space, problems with network
configuration, firewall configuration issues and more. The best part
of the cluster health command is that it can work without a
configured cluster, providing a checklist of issues to amend before
setting up a new cluster.
* *And wait, there's more!* There is now not only an extensive
regression test suite but a growing set of unit tests as well,
support for many new features in Pacemaker 1.1.11 such as resource
sets in location constraints, anonymous shadow CIBs makes it easier
to avoid race conditions in scripts, full syntax highlighting for
the built-in help, the assist sub-command helps with more advanced
configurations... the list goes on.
Big thanks to everyone who have helped with bug fixes, comments and
contributions for this release!
