hello,
Pleased to announce a big release for the Choria modules with Federations of Collectives support. *choria/mcollective_choria release 0.0.25:* *New Features:* * Federations of Collectives * Ability for the NATS connector to record the full route a packet takes *Bug Fixes:* * Update NATS gem dependency to 0.2.2 which resolves an issue where MCollective would disconnect from the middleware and not reconnect. *Federations of Collectives:* This is a major new feature that is tailored to building very large distributed collectives spanning geographical boundaries. It lets you build many small, easy to manage, Collectives and then, via a special cluster of daemons, gives your client access to the combined Federated network as one. Clients offload some of the work onto the brokers which in some scenarios yields a significant speed up and network traffic decrease. Additionally you have the ability to get precise network route maps of how your messages traverse the global network to assist with debugging and understanding your network. Review the documentation[1] for details. Thanks goes to several people who reached out off-list to me about the Federation feature and Stefan Goethals for the documentation review. *choria/mcollective release 0.0.26:* *New Features:* * You can use it to create custom config files using a utility defined type *Bug Fixes:* * Add ordering hints to ensure the policy files exist before trying to write to them *choria/nats release 0.0.8:* *Bug Fixes:* * Fix installation on RedHat 6 * Use the clientcert variable rather than FQDN to improve the situation where FQDN != certname Thanks to first time contributor Abhishek Dastidar for these 2 bug fixes. -- R.I.Pienaar / www.devco.net / @ripienaar Links: 1. http://choria.io/docs/federation/ -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "mcollective-users" group.
