Hi All, Just a quick note to let folks know that the Fuel project <https://launchpad.net/fuel> has reached its 4.0 GA milestone. This version of Fuel has been updated to deploy Havana 2013.2.1 <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ReleaseNotes/2013.2.1> including OpenStack Orchestration (Heat) and optionally OpenStack Telemetry (Ceilometer). It also deploys the newest version of the Murano project <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Murano> . Just a few of the other changes made include: * The Puppet Master server has been removed from the Fuel Master Node. Puppet modules and manifests are now synchronized between the master node and the managed nodes. The modules and manifests are then applied locally. * The Fuel project has added a framework that enables partners and community members to localize the Fuel UI by modifying the translate.json <https://github.com/stackforge/fuel-web/blob/master/nailgun/static/i18n/tran slation.json> file. A sample that translates the UI into zh-CN (Simplified Chinese) has been created by a community partner, 99cloud, and can be found in the file. * Previously, It was only possible to specify a subnet for a public network on the Networks tab of the Fuel UI. In this release, it is now possible to set a flexible range for Fuel use, for example 12.0.0.10 to 12.0.0.20. * Additional error checking has been added to the Fuel UI when entering information into the network settings under the Network tab. A full list of the limitations that are checked can be found on OpenStack Etherpad <https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/limitations-of-networking-configuration> . * In earlier releases, Fuel deployed the operating system and OpenStack components in a single action. Now, it is possible to deploy the operating system and OpenStack components in separate actions. This option is not expected to be used for typical deployments but may be useful in focused development or testing scenarios like OpenStack scalability testing as part of the OpenStack Rally <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Rally> project. * Documentation <http://docs.mirantis.com/fuel/fuel-4.0/reference-architecture.html#advanced -network-configuration-using-open-vswitch> on how to enable NIC Bonding has been made more complete and thorough. * The default value for the Swift ring partition power is now being calculated according to https://answers.launchpad.net/swift/+question/211929. I¹m looking forward to continued involvement from the community on the Fuel project plus I¹m very excited as we continue discussions around leveraging pieces of the Fuel project into OpenStack Deployment (TripleO <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/TripleO> ) as we enter the new year.
Happy Holidays to everyone, - David J. Easter Product Line Manager, Mirantis
