After a loooong wait, we are proud to announce the release of Shine 1.5

• Failover detection. 'migrated' state

When using 'status' command, shine now automatically reports if a target is running on a ha_node. This is reported as MIGRATED
and shine returned code is non-zero.
'start' and 'stop' command for failover nodes still works as usual.

• 'update' improvement

We are proud to announce the release of Shine 1.4

• Tuning execution improvements

Tunings are now applied directly after starting or mounting Lustre, without requiring an additional shine reconnection on remote nodes. This will improve error management and speed up execution with large clusters.

• Disable targets

This is a bugfix only release.
It fixes 9 tickets, including 1 traceback ([#169]), several display fixes, quota ([#171]), faster config loading ([#156]), tuning.conf copy ([#168]) and module loading ([#170]).

RPMs are available for EL5 and EL6

We are proud to announce the release of Shine 1.3

• New version numbering scheme

It was now time to stop using this awkward 0.9xx version scheme. Shine is now mature and stable and it felt inappropriate to use "1.0" for the following release. As the following version of the 0.900 series should have been 0.913, we decided to keep the "13" and transformed it into "1.3".

Bugfix only versions will be 1.3.1, 1.3.2, ...
The feature version will be 1.4... read more

We are proud to announce the release of Shine 0.912.
Changes brought to Shine in this new version were targeted to CLI usability.

* Output was improved.

New output was aimed to provide an easy to read output for human, but easy to parse for scripts.
