# Final release of 4.4.0
|
|
|
|
## Changes to node and profile subcommands
|
|
|
|
Warewulf 4.4.0 unifies the underlying implementation of nodes and profiles to prevent divergence in their features and attributes going forward; but this necessitated an update to their respective command-line arguments to unify them as well. Changes to those arguments is detailed here:
|
|
|
|
### wwctl node add
|
|
|
|
* `--discoverable` becomes `--discoverable=true`
|
|
|
|
### wwctl node set
|
|
|
|
* `--addprofile` has been removed
|
|
* `--assetkey` becomes `--asset`
|
|
* `--delprofile` has been removed
|
|
* `--discoverable` becomes `--discoverable=true`
|
|
* `--netdeltag` becomes `--nettagdel`
|
|
* `--nettag` becomes `--nettagadd`
|
|
* `--system` becomes `--wwinit`
|
|
* `--tag` becomes `--tagadd`
|
|
* `--undiscoverable` becomes `--discoverable=false`
|
|
|
|
### internal/app/wwctl/profile/set/root.go
|
|
* `--assetkey` becomes `--asset`
|
|
* `--discoverable` becomes `--discoverable=true`
|
|
* `--netdeltag` becomes `--nettagdel`
|
|
* `--nettag` becomes `--nettagadd`
|
|
* `--system` becomes `--wwinit`
|
|
* `--tag` becomes `--tagadd`
|
|
* `--undiscoverable` becomes `--discoverable=false`
|
|
|
|
All changes introduced since v4.3.0 are summarized below.
|
|
|
|
## Added
|
|
|
|
- iPXE binaries included with Warewulf now support VLAN tagging. #563
|
|
- `wwctl container list` now shows the container creation date,
|
|
modification date, and size. #537
|
|
- `wwctl node edit` supports directly editing or defining node
|
|
configuration YAML in an editor. #540
|
|
- `wwctl node export` and `wwctl node import` support importing and
|
|
exporting node definitions as YAML or (for import) CSV. The CSV file
|
|
must have a header in where the first field must always be the
|
|
nodename, and the rest of the fields are the same as the long
|
|
commandline options. Network device must have the form
|
|
`net.$NETNAME.$NETOPTION`. (e.g., `net.default.ipaddr`) #540
|
|
- The `warewulfd.service` systemd unit file now supports `execreload`
|
|
and `execstop`. #550
|
|
- Network interfaces now accept an `mtu` attribute. #549
|
|
- The `wwinit` overlay now supports network interface configuration
|
|
via NetworkManager for Ethernet and InfiniBand interfaces. #539
|
|
- Default node attribute values (e.g., for kernel arguments) are now
|
|
read in from a `defaults.conf` configuration file. If this file
|
|
is not present, built-in default values are used. #539
|
|
- [Warewulf documentation](https://warewulf.org/docs/) is now managed
|
|
alongside the Warewulf source code in a single code repository so
|
|
that documentation may be updated alongside code changes.
|
|
- New man pages for `warewulf.conf` and `nodes.conf` #510
|
|
- An initial cut of the [Warewulf API](API.md) #471
|
|
- `wwctl show --render` shows overlay templates as they would be
|
|
rendered on a given target node. #467
|
|
- `wwctl ssh` now supports Bash completion. #466
|
|
- The environment variable `WW_CONTAINER_SHELL` is defined in a `wwctl
|
|
container shell` environment to indicate the container in use. #579
|
|
- Network interface configuration (`ifcfg`) files now include the
|
|
interface name and type. #457
|
|
- New `defaults.conf` man page. #593
|
|
- A new debug overlay includes a template which demonstrates accessing
|
|
all available variables. #599
|
|
- Distribute a README along with staticfiles. #189
|
|
- Add a `-y` flag to `wwctl profile add`. #610
|
|
- Distribute a source RPM with GitHub releases. #614
|
|
- New Docker container node image for CentOS 7. #621
|
|
|
|
## Changed
|
|
|
|
- `wwctl overlay edit` no longer saves a new template to the overlay
|
|
if the template is not modified from its initial state. #522
|
|
- The wwinit overlay now only sets a name for a network interface if
|
|
that interface has a MAC address defined. #553
|
|
- `wwctl container delete` now also deletes the built images
|
|
associated with that container. #214
|
|
- Unified internal code paths for `wwctl profile` and `wwctl node`
|
|
commands, and between the on disk YAML format and the in memory
|
|
format, enabling the command-line options to be autogenerated from
|
|
the datastructures and ensuring that profile and node capabilities
|
|
remain in sync. Multiple command line arguments have been updated or
|
|
changed. #495, #637
|
|
- `wwctl power` commands no longer separates node output with
|
|
additional whitespace. #514
|
|
- No longer ask for confirmation when deleting 0 nodes. #603
|
|
- Ask for confirmation during `wwctl container delete`. #606
|
|
|
|
## Fixed
|
|
|
|
- `/etc/warewulf/excludes` (read from the node image) once again
|
|
excludes files from being included in the node image. #532
|
|
- `wwctl ssh` always uses a node's primary interface. #544
|
|
- `wwctl container show` now correctly shows the kernel version. #542
|
|
- System users are no longer prevented from logging into compute
|
|
nodes. #538
|
|
- `wwctl overlay chown` now correctly handles uid and gid arguments. #530
|
|
- `wwctl overlay chown` no longer sets gid to `0` when unspecified. #531
|
|
- Corrected the path for `.wwbackup` files in some situations. #524
|
|
- Bypass `imgextract` for legacy BIOS machines to avoid 32-bit memory
|
|
limitations. #497
|
|
- `warewulfd` no longer panics when network interface tags are
|
|
defined. #468
|
|
- The wwinit overlay now configures the network device type. #465
|
|
- Minor typographical fixes. #528, #519
|
|
- Work-around for older versions of gzip that lack a `--keep` flag
|
|
during `wwctl container build`. #580
|
|
- The default ipxe template is once again specified as a built-in
|
|
default and in `defaults.conf`. #581
|
|
- `wwctl container list` no longer segfaults when a container chroot
|
|
is present without a built image. #585
|
|
- `wwctl configure hostfile` now correctly detects the presence of the
|
|
hostfile overlay template. #571
|
|
- `wwctl overlay build` no longer panics when rendering an template
|
|
for a node which has tags set. #568
|
|
- Minor typographical fixes. #569
|
|
- Directories within overlays no longer lose group/other write permissions #584
|
|
- `wwctl profile set` now indicates "profiles" in output where it
|
|
previously mistakenly indicated "nodes." #600
|
|
- Set correct overlay permissions for a NetworkManager configuration
|
|
file. #591
|
|
- Replaced an invalid variable name in a NetworkManager overlay
|
|
template. #626
|
|
- The 'nodes' alias now correctly refers to 'node' rather than
|
|
'profile'.
|
|
- Fixed a typo in a log message. #631
|
|
- Boolean attributes now correctly account for profile and default
|
|
values. #630
|
|
