+
+*(Released Thu, 20 Feb 2014)*
+
+Incompatible/important changes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Adding disks with 'gnt-instance modify' now waits for the disks to sync per
+ default. Specify --no-wait-for-sync to override this behavior.
+- The Ganeti python code now adheres to a private-module layout. In
particular,
+ the module 'ganeti' is no longer in the python search path.
+- On instance allocation, the iallocator now considers non-LVM storage
+ properly. In particular, actual file storage space information is used
+ when allocating space for a file/sharedfile instance.
+- When disabling disk templates cluster-wide, the cluster now first
+ checks whether there are instances still using those templates.
+- 'gnt-node list-storage' now also reports storage information about
+ file-based storage types.
+- In case of non drbd instances, export \*_SECONDARY environment variables
+ as empty strings (and not "None") during 'instance-migrate' related hooks.
+
+New features
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- KVM hypervisors can now access RBD storage directly without having to
+ go through a block device.
+- A new command 'gnt-cluster upgrade' was added that automates the upgrade
+ procedure between two Ganeti versions that are both 2.10 or higher.
+- The move-instance command can now change disk templates when moving
+ instances, and does not require any node placement options to be
+ specified if the destination cluster has a default iallocator.
+- Users can now change the soundhw and cpuid settings for XEN hypervisors.
+- Hail and hbal now have the (optional) capability of accessing average CPU
+ load information through the monitoring deamon, and to use it to dynamically
+ adapt the allocation of instances.
+- Hotplug support. Introduce new option '--hotplug' to ``gnt-instance modify``
+ so that disk and NIC modifications take effect without the need of actual
+ reboot. There are a couple of constrains currently for this feature:
+
+ - only KVM hypervisor (versions >= 1.0) supports it,
+ - one can not (yet) hotplug a disk using userspace access mode for RBD
+ - in case of a downgrade instances should suffer a reboot in order to
+ be migratable (due to core change of runtime files)
+ - ``python-fdsend`` is required for NIC hotplugging.
+
+Misc changes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- A new test framework for logical units was introduced and the test
+ coverage for logical units was improved significantly.
+- Opcodes are entirely generated from Haskell using the tool 'hs2py' and
+ the module 'src/Ganeti/OpCodes.hs'.
+- Constants are also generated from Haskell using the tool
+ 'hs2py-constants' and the module 'src/Ganeti/Constants.hs', with the
+ exception of socket related constants, which require changing the
+ cluster configuration file, and HVS related constants, because they
+ are part of a port of instance queries to Haskell. As a result, these
+ changes will be part of the next release of Ganeti.
+
+New dependencies
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The following new dependencies have been added/updated.
+
+Python
+
+- The version requirements for ``python-mock`` have increased to at least
+ version 1.0.1. It is still used for testing only.
+- ``python-fdsend`` (https://gitorious.org/python-fdsend) is optional
+ but required for KVM NIC hotplugging to work.
+
+Since 2.10.0 rc3
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Fix integer overflow problem in hbal
+
+
+Version 2.10.0 rc3
+------------------
+
+*(Released Wed, 12 Feb 2014)*
+
+This was the third RC release of the 2.10 series. Since 2.10.0 rc2:
+
+- Improved hotplug robustness
+- Start Ganeti daemons after ensure-dirs during upgrade
+- Documentation improvements
+
+Inherited from the 2.9 branch:
+
+- Fix the RAPI instances-multi-alloc call
+- assign unique filenames to file-based disks
+- gracefully handle degraded non-diskless instances with 0 disks (issue 697)
+- noded now runs with its specified group, which is the default group,
+ defaulting to root (issue 707)
+- make using UUIDs to identify nodes in gnt-node consistently possible
+ (issue 703)
+
+
+Version 2.10.0 rc2
+------------------
+
+*(Released Fri, 31 Jan 2014)*
+
+This was the second RC release of the 2.10 series. Since 2.10.0 rc1:
+
+- Documentation improvements

+ Commas could not work because they are already the hypervisor option
+ separator (Issue 649)
+- Add support for blktap2 file-driver (Issue 638)

+ None.
