Cockpit is the modern Linux admin interface. We release regularly. Here
are the release notes from version 171.


Machines: Add virtual CPU configuration
---------------------------------------

The Machines page can now flexibly configure the number and layout of virtual 
CPUs:

When changing the values for an already running VM, they become effective after
stopping and restarting it.

Thanks to Bohdan Iakymets!

Kubernetes: Add KubeVirt pod metrics
------------------------------------

The details page of a KubeVirt VM now shows the current CPU, memory, and
network usage. This is similar to the libvirt VM on the Machines page.

Thanks to suomiy!

Docker: Show container volumes
------------------------------

The details page of a running Docker container now shows its volumes and their
mode (like "read only"):

Thanks to Katerina Koukiou!

Fix broken actions for non-administrators
-----------------------------------------

The tuned, system time, and host name links on the System page, as well as the
unit and service buttons on the Services page now check if the user is actually
allowed to carry out the action. If not, the elements now get disabled and show
a proper tooltip.

Networking: Handle non-running NetworkManager
---------------------------------------------

The Networking page now hides the non-functional network graphs and action
buttons while NetworkManager is not running, and shows an appropriate
notification. If NetworkManager is enabled, this usually indicates a crash or
otherwise unexpected situation:

If NetworkManager is disabled, this usually just means that some other
software manages the network, or that this might be a fresh installation where
NetworkManager is not configured yet:

Accounts: User role improvements
--------------------------------

The Accounts page now offers adding an "Image Builder" role to a user, which
puts that user into the weldr Unix group. It also points out that this does not
become immediately effective but only applies to new logins:

Localize times
--------------

Dates and times on all affected pages (System, Storage, and Docker) now use the
format matching the selected Display Language instead of the U.S.format.
