New puppet-gluster features before Linuxcon
Hey there,
I've done a bit of puppet-gluster hacking lately to try to squeeze some extra features and testing in before Linuxcon. Here's a short list:
- SELinux fixes to keep Dan Walsh happy
- Ping and status checks before volume creation. Now puppet-gluster will be less noisy about failures or missing executions that are due to the necessary incremental nature of puppet-gluster runs. You'll need multiple puppet runs to get a complete setup, so don't let puppet complain part way through. This is due to the design of puppet.
- Simple filesystem paths for bricks. This is very useful for prototyping with virtual machines.
- Automatic UUID assignment for hosts. This requires exported resources.
- Updated examples
- And more…
If there are features or bugs that you'd like to see added or removed (respectively) please let me know ASAP so that I can try to get something ready for you before my Linuxcon talk. I also don't have any hardware RAID or physical hardware to test external storage partitions (bricks) on. If you have any that you can donate or let me hack on for a while, there are some features I'd like to test. Contact me!
I've got a few more things queued up too, but you'll have to wait and see. Until then,
Happy hacking,
James
