Releases & Sprints (reverse chronological order)

v1.3 [DEV PHASE, UNSTABLE]: Crowbar Expansions

We are continuing to vet ideas for this release. Top feature candidates include:

  • updating core OS (Ubuntu 11.x, RHEL 6.x)
  • include heterogeneous OS (OS can be different than Crowbar admin),
  • architecture changes to support external entity/managed nodes (required for switch, SAN, blade chassis).
  • upgrade & patching
  • Focus on Cloudera Hadoop Integration (instead of effort on Hadoop barclamps)
  • Ability to connect Crowbar admin server to external networks

Sprints

v1.2 [LATEST STABLE]: OpenStack Diablo

Tag: v1.2 and Release-notes

This release is focused on supporting OpenStack Diablo but includes enhancements for upgrades, Hadoop, and additional OS support. At this point, Crowbar is a stand alone product.

Feature Highlights

  • Central feature was OpenStack Diablo Final barclamps (tag "openstack-os-build")
  • Improved barclamp packaging
  • Added concepts for "meta" barclamps that are suites of other barclamps
  • Proposal queue and ordering
  • New UI states for nodes & barclamps (led spinner!)
  • Install includes self-testing
  • Service monitoring (bluepill)
