Weekly status for the week of 18th November to 24th November.
Introduction
This past week has been fairly quiet since the recent releases. Nevertheless, we still have a few nice fixes and improvements to cover here, so let’s get to it!
Bug fixes and improvements
- Support for
lxc warning delete --all. It is now possible to delete all warnings withlxc warning delete --all. - Make Warning and Operation metrics member specific. Both
lxd_warnings_totalandlxd_operations_totalwere showing the totals for the entire cluster. This was a bug because all metrics are supposed to encompass only the cluster member being scraped. - Fixed a bug that caused snapshots and backups to be missing from the storage pools and volumes used-by URLs.
- Fixed a bug with
lxc execsometimes disconnecting when using long-running exec sessions. This was fixed by consuming websocket pings for the stderr channel to avoid filling up the send buffer (from Incus).
LXD UI:
- Added boot options to instance and profile configuration.
- Added support for cephfs backed storage pools and volumes.
