Salt 0.7.0 release notes
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
I am pleased to announce the release of Salt 0.7.0!
|
|
|
|
This release marks what is the first stable release of salt, 0.7.0 should be
|
|
suitable for general use.
|
|
|
|
0.7.0 Brings the following new features to Salt:
|
|
|
|
- Integration with Facter data from puppet labs
|
|
- Allow for matching minions from the salt client via Facter information
|
|
- Minion job threading, many jobs can be executed from the master at once
|
|
- Preview of master clustering support - Still experimental
|
|
- Introduce new minion modules for stats, virtualization, service management and more
|
|
- Add extensive logging to the master and minion daemons
|
|
- Add sys.reload_functions for dynamic function reloading
|
|
- Greatly improve authentication
|
|
- Introduce the saltkey command for managing public keys
|
|
- Begin backend development preparatory to introducing butter
|
|
- Addition of man pages for the core commands
|
|
- Extended and cleaned configuration
|
|
|
|
0.7.0 Fixes the following major bugs:
|
|
|
|
- Fix crash in minions when matching failed
|
|
- Fix configuration file lookups for the local client
|
|
- Repair communication bugs in encryption
|
|
- Numerous fixes in the minion modules
|
|
|
|
The next release of Salt should see the following features:
|
|
|
|
- Stabilize the cluster support
|
|
- Introduce a remote client for salt command tiers
|
|
- salt-ftp system for distributed file copies
|
|
- Initial support for "butter"
|
|
|
|
Coming up next is a higher level management framework for salt called
|
|
Butter. I want salt to stay as a simple and effective communication
|
|
framework, and allow for more complicated executions to be managed via
|
|
Butter.
|
|
|
|
Right now Butter is being developed to act as a cloud controller using salt
|
|
as the communication layer, but features like system monitoring and advanced
|
|
configuration control (a puppet manager) are also in the pipe.
|
|
|
|
Special thanks to Joseph Hall for the status and network modules, and thanks
|
|
to Matthias Teege for tracking down some configuration bugs!
