Hi! 1.24.0 will be a huge release with a lot of changes and therefore comes first as RCs. I'll explain the highlights of this release:
* Java-11 requirement and java-17 support We moved forward and now require at least java-11 for running LINSTOR, with this change we also made sure java-17 is supported. As this is the default jre in debian bookworm now. With this change also a lot of 3rd party libraries needed to be upgraded. * linstor-database tool A new tool was added that enables you to convert/migrate from/to different LINSTOR database types. Most interesting case is probably migrating from etcd to the crd backend. See linstor-database command line help on how to export/import the database, for this release we require the LINSTOR-controller to be offline while doing the export/import. * LINSTOR for Windows LINSTOR has now basic support for Microsoft Windows and their storage spaces as storage backend. Installers for that will be provided for our WinDrbd customers. * Backupshipping queue There is now a property "BackupShipping/MaxConcurrentBackupsPerNode" (on controller or node) which limits how many concurrent backup shipments a node is allowed to have. This can be used to decrease network load during scheduled backups for example. ## [1.24.0-rc.2] - 2023-07-24 ### Fixed - Force all database DATA objects to be comparable ## [1.24.0-rc.1] - 2023-07-20 ### Added - Added support for Microsoft Windows (storagespaces) - Added queues for backup shipping - Added linstor-database tool to migrate from/to different database types - Allow drbd-option properties for node-connections - Added support for java-17 ### Changed - Update of nearly all 3rd party libraries - Minimal required java version is now java-11 - Improved suspend-io "downtime" for snapshots - Improved default INFO logging level ### Fixed - Fixed UID-mismatch when creating rollback entries in K8s/CRD - Resync-After: Update entries after vlm definition delete - Resync-After: Ignore diskless resources - Enforce s3-remotes for backup create and linstor-remotes for backup ship - Allow node-connection drbd options - Several fixes in backup-shipping - Storpools can only be deleted without snapshots in addition to without volumes - Evacuating nodes no longer create snapshots - Resources can not be created within a resource-definition that is currently restoring a backup https://pkg.linbit.com//downloads/linstor/linstor-server-1.24.0-rc.2.tar.gz Linstor PPA: https://launchpad.net/~linbit/+archive/ubuntu/linbit-drbd9-stack Cheers, Rene
