EVMS Changelog ============== 2.5.5 (2/24/2006) - New plugins - OCFS2 FSIM, contributed by Robert Whitehead from Novell. - FAT FSIM, contribued by Anton D. Kachalov from ALT Linux Ltd. - Heartbeat2 Cluster Manager, contributed by Changju Gao from Novell. - Bug fixes - Clean up compile warnings from gcc4. - Engine - Perform remote rediscovery after filesystem changes have been made so other cluster nodes will pick up the volume changes. - Disk Plugin - Try to get disk geometry from the DOS MBR before asking the kernel. - MD Plugin - Allow creating degraded RAID-1 and RAID-5 regions. - Correct size checks when assembling list of available objects to add to an existing raid1 using the version-1 superblock. - Provide an option for creating a version-1 superblock even if the running kernel does not support them. - evms_mpathd - When sending test-I/Os to a failed path, use the device's hard-sector-size instead of assuming 512 bytes for the request size.
