[Linux-ha-dev] crmsh release candidate 1.2.6-rc1

[Dejan Muhamedagic]

Hello,

The first release candidate for CRM shell v1.2.6 has been
released.

This is also the first release in which Kristoffer Grönlund takes
the responsibility of co-maintainership. Welcome Kristoffer!

The highlights of the release:

* Atomic CIB updates (via cibadmin -P, only with pacemaker >= 1.1.10)
* Support for containers (nagios)
* Support for RA tracing
* Many performance improvements
(including a switch from minidom to lxml)
* Element editing improvements
* General history feature improvements

For the full set of changes, take a look at the changelog:

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/crmsh/file/1.2.6-rc1/ChangeLog

We will allow for a period of testing and bug fixing before the
actual release of v1.2.6.

The final release of CRM shell v1.2.6 is expected to be available
in a few weeks.

Note about Pacemaker versions

CRM shell 1.2.6 supports all Pacemaker 1.1 versions including the
latest v1.1.10.

Installing with pacemaker versions <= v1.1.7

Installing the CRM shell along with Pacemaker 1.1 versions <=
v1.1.7 is possible, but it will result in file conflicts. You
need to enforce file overwriting when installing the crmsh
package.

Note that pacemaker up to v1.1.7 includes an older version of the CRM
shell, and these versions are quite outdated. There are several
interesting new features, including history, not found in these
bundled versions of the shell.
