[Linuxha-users] 1.2 Release Update

[Simon Edwards]

Hello all,
	Just a quick status summary of Linuxha.net 1.2.0 for anyone
interested...

1.2.0 represents significant improvements compared to 1.0.x series of
releases and is likely to become the 'stable' version now in early June.

This is 3 weeks later than intended due to;
[a] Fixing some unexpected bugs that came up in late testing due to 
    DRBD 0.7.18 amongst other things, and;
[b] The late change to DRBD 0.7.19 means that significant subsections of
    the testing are being performed again.

This further delay has allowed me yet further time to alter some
functionality and retest. This has resulted in fail-over performance
time improvements, final correction of the 'estimated sync time' bug in
clstat and even providing a drbd_tool to force a disconnected data copy
to be invalid [very useful - believe me...]

Hence all-in-all the delays will be worth it. We will end up with a more
stable product, offering more functionality/flexibility AND reducing
fail-over times when hardware failure occurs.

Regards,
Simon.
