[one-users] OpenNebula 4.4 Retina Beta 2 (4.3.85) is Out!

[Tino Vazquez]

Dear Community,

Thanks to the terrific feedback obtained from the release of OpenNebula 4.4
Beta (4.3.80) Retina, the OpenNebula project announces the immediate
availability of the second beta of OpenNebula 4.4 Retina. This release
includes important features that meet real
demands from production environments, with a focus on optimization of
storage, monitoring, cloud bursting, and public cloud interfaces.

This beta version comes with a number of bugfixes and feature enhancements
(check the release notes [1] for more information). We would like to
highlight the differences from the first beta that motivated this release.
First of all, improvements in the Ceph storage drivers, that now allows the
use of these drivers in all the supported platforms. We would appreciate
any feedback that we can get with this bug fix. It is also worth noting the
name change of the LVM filesystem drivers, from 'shared_lvm' to 'fs_lvm'.
Please note that, in order to update the new drivers in the virtualization
hosts, the administrator has to perform a 'onehost sync' operation in the
front-end.

We are now set to basically bug-fixing and feature-freeze. Note that this
is a beta release aimed at testers and developers to try the new features,
and send a more than welcomed feedback for the final release.

As usual OpenNebula releases are named after a Nebula. The Retina Nebula
(IC 4406) is a planetary nebula near the western border of the
constellation Lupus, the Wolf. It has dust clouds and has the shape of a
torus.
