--- Begin Message ---
I am proud to announce the first independent release of Pacemaker.
Most of you will know Pacemaker as the Heartbeat CRM however, in addition to being a separate project, it now also supports the OpenAIS cluster stack!

Packages for Pacemaker and it's immediate dependancies can be downloaded from the usual location:
   http://software.opensuse.org/download/server:/ha-clustering

and the source can be obtained from:
  http://hg.clusterlabs.org/pacemaker/stable-0.6/archive/Pacemaker-0.6.0.tar.bz2


For a breakdown of the available packages and what parts are optional, please refer to
  http://clusterlabs.org/mw/Install#Package_List

This release also marks the start of our first (feature frozen) stable series for which we will provide bug-fix-only updates until at least 2009.

More information regarding Pacemaker (including the name, choice of version number and how to install) is available at:
  http://clusterlabs.org/mw/FAQ

regards,
Andrew



Begin lazy paste from the changelog...

  * Update source tarball to revision: c94b92d550cf
  * Statistics:
      Changesets:      347
Diff^: 2272 files changed, 132508 insertions(+), 305991 deletions(-)

^ The deceptively large numbers here are due to the amount of non-CRM code that was removed and the new internal project layout

  * Test hardware:
+ 6-node vmware cluster (sles10-sp1/256Mb/vmware stonith) on a single host (opensuse10.3/2Gb/2.66Ghz Quad Core2)
    + 7-node EMC Centera cluster (sles10/512Mb/2Ghz Xeon/ssh stonith)

  * Notes: Heartbeat Stack
    + All testing was performed with STONITH enabled
    + The CRM was enabled using the "crm respawn" directive
    + Testing
      2-nodes ::= 1000 CTS iterations (passed)
      4-nodes ::= 1000 CTS iterations (passed)
      6-nodes ::= 2000 CTS iterations (passed)
    + Total estimated cluster transitions: 18000

  * Notes: OpenAIS Stack
+ This release contains a preview of support for the OpenAIS cluster stack + The current release of the OpenAIS project is missing two important patches that we require. OpenAIS packages containing these patches are
      available for most major distributions at:
        http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/ha-clustering
+ The OpenAIS stack is not currently recommended for use in clusters that
      have shared data as STONITH support is not yet implimented
    + pingd is not yet available for use with the OpenAIS stack
+ 3 significant OpenAIS issues were found during testing of 4 and 6 node clusters. We are activly working together with the OpenAIS project to
      get these resolved.
    + Testing
      2-nodes ::= 1000 CTS iterations (passed)
4-nodes ::= 1000 CTS iterations (sporadic problems - see pending bugs) 6-nodes ::= 1000 CTS iterations (significant problems - see pending bugs)
    + Total estimated cluster transitions: 12000

  * Pending bugs encountered during testing:
    + OpenAIS   #1736 - Openais membership took 20s to stabilize
+ Heartbeat #1750 - ipc_bufpool_update: magic number in head does not match
    + OpenAIS   #1793 - Assertion failure in memb_state_gather_enter()
    + OpenAIS   #1796 - Cluster message corruption
