Salt 0.9.6 Release Notes
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
:release: 2012-01-21
|
|
|
|
Salt 0.9.6 is a release targeting a few bugs and changes. This is primarily
|
|
targeting an issue found in the names declaration in the state system. But a
|
|
few other bugs were also repaired, like missing support for grains in extmods.
|
|
|
|
Due to a conflict in distribution packaging msgpack will no longer be bundled
|
|
with Salt, and is required as a dependency.
|
|
|
|
New Features
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
HTTP and ftp support in files.managed
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Now under the source option in the file.managed state a HTTP or ftp address
|
|
can be used instead of a file located on the salt master.
|
|
|
|
Allow Multiple Returners
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
Now the returner interface can define multiple returners, and will also return
|
|
data back to the master, making the process less ambiguous.
|
|
|
|
Minion Memory Improvements
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
A number of modules have been taken out of the minion if the underlying
|
|
systems required by said modules are not present on the minion system.
|
|
A number of other modules need to be stripped out in this same way which
|
|
should continue to make the minion more efficient.
|
|
|
|
Minions Can Locally Cache Return Data
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
A new option, cache_jobs, has been added to the minion to allow for all of the
|
|
historically run jobs to cache on the minion, allowing for looking up historic
|
|
returns. By default cache_jobs is set to False.
|
|
|
|
Pure Python Template Support For file.managed
|
|
---------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Templates in the file.managed state can now be defined in a Python script.
|
|
This script needs to have a run function that returns the string that needs to
|
|
be in the named file.
