Hi all,

We are very happy to announce the final release of our Proxmox VE 5.0 - based 
on the great Debian 9 codename "Stretch" and a Linux Kernel 4.10.

New Proxmox VE Storage Replication

Replicas provide asynchronous data replication between two or multiple nodes in 
a cluster, thus minimizing data loss in case of failure. For all organizations 
using local storage the Proxmox replication feature is a great option to 
increase data redundancy for high I/Os avoiding the need of complex shared or 
distributed storage configurations.
=> https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Storage_Replication

With Proxmox VE 5.0 Ceph RBD becomes the de-facto standard for distributed 
storage. Packaging is now done by the Proxmox team. The Ceph Luminous is not 
yet production ready but already available for testing. If you use Ceph, follow 
the recommendations below.

We also have a simplified procedure for disk import from different hypervisors. 
You can now easily import disks from VMware, Hyper-V, or other hypervisors via 
a new command line tool called ‘qm importdisk’.

Other new features are the live migration with local storage via QEMU, added 
USB und Host PCI address visibility in the GUI, bulk actions and filtering 
options in the GUI and an optimized NoVNC console.

And as always we have included countless bugfixes and improvements on a lot of 
places.

production. But you should start testing in a testlab environment, here is one 
important wiki article - https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Ceph_Jewel_to_Luminous

Sounds great, really looking forward to the new ceph release becoming stable.

What's the general opinion regarding incremental backups with a dirty map like 
feature? http://wiki.qemu.org/Features/IncrementalBackup

I see that as a very important and missing feature.
