[Cluster-devel] ATTENTION packagers and developers! (moving from 3.0.x to 3.1)

Hi all,

either today or tomorrow, we will release 3.0.17 (that unless will show
major issues) it will be the last release of cluster in the 3.0.x series.

The next release will be 3.1.0 and it will be the first release gearing
towards the split git trees.

With 3.1.x release, we will:

- - drop any gfs/gfs2 related code from cluster project.
- - drop fence agents from cluster project.
- - drop resource agents from cluster project.

The gfs2 code will be released from gfs2-utils.git.
The fence agents will be released from fence-agents.git
The resource agents will be released from resource-agents.git

We will clearly synchronize the first release to avoid any regression,
but from there on, the 4 projects will release independently (unless
big changes will require otherwise).

Due to the nature of the changes, 3.1 will come out when it?s ready, so
it might take slightly longer than the usual month in between releases.

Cheers,
Fabio

Hi,

To explain a bit more about what is happening on the GFS2 side of
things, this is our current plan:

 o gfs2-utils becomes its own package (with essentially identical
contents)
 o gfs2-cluster is a binary subpackage of gfs2-utils which will contain
the gfs2 related parts of the old cman package
 o The old cman pakage retains its original contents, minus what is now
in gfs2-cluster

So what is new in gfs2-cluster? Only gfs_controld and its associated man
pages, a new initscript and a gfs_control binary. The gfs2-cluster
package depends upon cman in order to ensure that dlm_controld etc are
also available.

As a result of being able to build the packages from the gfs2-utils git
tree (rather than the cluster tree which is currently used) that will
result in the tunegfs2 utility being added to gfs2-utils package at long
last.

The reason for wanting to make the split from the GFS2 side of things is
to allow independent (and more frequent) builds of gfs2-utils and thus
to keep the packages much more uptodate with respect to the head of the
tree,

Steve.
