OpenSSI 1.1.1 is a development release, and is not necessarily suitable
for production use.

This is primarily a bug fix release. The bugs that have been fixed are
described in the Changelog. A few enhancements are described in more
detail below.

The top command was enhanced for this release by Roopa Prabhu. By default,
it adds an execution node number column and only displays clusterwide
information in the header. The node number column replaces the mem % column,
which is potentially confusing. When top is run in localview mode (i.e.,
`localview top'), it limits the list of processes to just those that are
running on the local node, and it displays all the same information as the
base version of top.

On a similar note, the ps --shownode and --node enhancements were broken in
the 1.1.0 release. They are now fixed.

To improve performance, the init failover state file was moved from
/etc/initstate to /cluster/init/initstate. This avoids the need to
constantly hit the large /etc directory.
