At long, long last, Heketi v10.0.0 is now available [0]. This is the new stable version of Heketi.
# Major additions in this release * Heketi now tracks additional metadata for devices, based on LVM PV UUID. This allows Heketi to manage devices even if the device path (for example / dev/sda) changes if the node is rebooted. * Authentication is now always enabled. [1] * Heketi now provides a tool to patch endpoints. This can be used when nodes have changed to update endpoints to match. * Heketi now sets up a strict set of volume options for the 'heketidbstorage' volume by default * Heketi now provides tooling to update the volume options for existing 'heketidbstorage' volumes * Heketi can now be run with specific ssh known hosts * A system for matching devices with volumes has been added. This tag matching [2] system allows admisistrators to create devices tiers or similar scenarios. * LVM commands can now be executed via a wrapper script. For container use cases, this wrapper script can be used to execute LVM commands on the host. However, the script can be used for other purposes as needed. * Added a new "brick evict" feature: brick eviction removes a single specified brick from a volume, and then automatically replaces it. * Device remove is now based on brick eviction. By basing device remove on brick eviction device removal should now be more reliable and debuggable. * Heketi can now expand existing block volumes via the `heketi-cli blockvolume expand` subcommand. # Changelog Among numerous other stability and bug fixes: * Improved the behavior and logging for executed commands * Only apply volume limit to block volumes that create a block hosting volume * Perform device resync updates in a single db transaction * Do not perform device resync for devices with a pending operation * Fix issue where old BHVs could not be cleaned up * Add a '--cluster' boolean flag to the device resync command. * Add metrics for operations * For commands that work on multiple clusters, errors that occur on one or more clusters can be reported by cluster id * Fixed a panic within the operations cleanup subsystem * Topology prints "removed" rather than "failed" state * The kubernetes executor can now time out "stuck" commands like the SSH executor could * Improve error reporting when device setup fails * Support specifying a node selector for the heketi-storage-copy-job command * Fixed an issue with internal db inconsistencies after expanding a volume * Extended device metrics * Fix a panic within the diagnostic code used to help debug unmount failures * Allow specifying mount options for bricks in heketi.json or an environment variable. * The selection of valid block hosting volumes is now randomized * Prevent characters in a "db dump" from being treated like go format strings [0] - https://github.com/heketi/heketi/releases/tag/v10.0.0 [1] - Authentication can no longer be turned off via the configuration JSON file. Authentication can be disabled for testing and development purposes with a command line option to the server only.
