The Linux-HA team proudly announces bug-fix-and-enhancement release
2.0.6 of the Linux-HA (aka "heartbeat", aka "OpenHA") software.
As usual, you can find it here:
http://linux-ha.org/download/index.html#2.0.6
2.0.6 has significant bug fixes and enhancements making it a worthwhile
upgrade for anyone running R2 CRM-style configurations, or who want to.
Change Log:
* Thu Jul 13 2006 Alan Robertson <alanr@unix.sh> (see doc/AUTHORS file)
+ Version 2.0.6 - bug fix and a few enhancements release
+ Added the ability to start/stop groups from the GUI
+ Fixed a few monitoring bugs in the Apache resource agent
+ Changed the name of the netmask parameter to the IPaddr and IPaddr2
resource agents. This is because the netmask must be specified
in CIDR format. The new name is cidr_netmask. It will continue
to work the old way.
+ Changed target_role so that when you stop a resource, all the
resources which depend on it also stop - in the proper order.
+ Many enhancements
default_resource_failure_stickiness
OCFS2 cluster filesystem support
new VIPArip resource agent
new SysInfo resource agent
new Oracle resource agents
Add cluster naming directive
Added node quorum voting weights
Added site declaration
ha_propagate command
allow NFS to run as a cloneable filesystem
haresources2cib extensions
added cibadmin man page
Make startup fencing optional (for the brave)
Many CIM improvements
+ Many GUI improvements
added hb_gui symlink in /usr/bin
significant speedup
added support for types of groups:
