Hi, the topic of regular builds for the latest and greatest GlusterFS bits have come up on several occastions in the last few weeks. As a reminder, we do provide automated builds (RPM only at the moment) for testing. On occasion the build system is plagued with connectivity issues between the systems that generate the builds, it a long standing issue but under investigation now. Sometimes builds are not sync'ed, or a few days later. In general, every night a cron job checks if there have been recent changes to the git branches, and for those branches RPMs get build. More details on how this is done can be found in the README[1]. The easiest to install (and update) to a certain 3.x version of the nightly builds is by using a 'dgo-nightly' package (dgo stands for download.gluster.org). This package includes only a .repo file and places it in /etc/yum.repos.d/. After installing the dgo-nightly a simple "yum install glusterfs-server glusterfs-fuse" should get the test packages. Additional information is located on a wiki page[2]. Each 3.x version has its own tree of RPMs, including older versions for identifying introduced regressions (the versionless one is 'mainline', the upcoming 3.7): - http://download.gluster.org/pub/gluster/glusterfs/nightly/glusterfs/ - http://download.gluster.org/pub/gluster/glusterfs/nightly/glusterfs-3.6/ - http://download.gluster.org/pub/gluster/glusterfs/nightly/glusterfs-3.5/ - http://download.gluster.org/pub/gluster/glusterfs/nightly/glusterfs-3.4/ Testing, feedback and bug reports are most welcome.
