New Features in Mirantis OpenStack 6.0
Support for the latest OpenStack Juno release
The OpenStack core projects in the Mirantis OpenStack hardened packages support the OpenStack Juno 2014.??? release. Fuel 6.0 deploys this version of OpenStack on either CentOS or Ubuntu.
The Fuel Master Node can be upgraded from ???
[OLD TEXT] If you are running a Mirantis OpenStack 5.0 or 5.0.1 environment, you can upgrade your Fuel Master Node to Fuel 5.1 but leave your current Mirantis OpenStack environments in place without requiring a redeployment. After the upgrade, the Fuel Master Node can deploy a new Mirantis OpenStack 5.1 environment and manage environments that were deployed with an earlier Fuel version, performing operational functions such as adding and deleting nodes, viewing logs, and running Health Checks.
Upgrading the Fuel Master Node does not update the OpenStack environment. See below for information about updating OpenStack environments.
See upgrade-ug for
instructions.
Fuel 6.0 can update existing ????? Mirantis OpenStack environments to ????? (Experimental)
[OLD TEXT] Starting with version 5.1, an experimental feature<experimental-features-term>
enables the Fuel Master Node to update existing 5.0.x environments to
5.0.2. Once the Fuel Master Node is upgraded, the UI provides an option
to update an existing 5.0.x environment to 5.0.2.
5.0.2 is a technical release that contains some of the bug fixes that are included in 5.1 and the 2014.1.1 maintenance release of Icehouse. Release 5.1 includes some significant architectural modifications that make it impossible to update a 5.0.x environment to 5.1, so Mirantis is offering the 5.0.2 release to provide the fixes that can be applied to the existing architecture.
See update-openstack-environ-ug for instructions. You can
also use Fuel CLI to update the environment; see cli_usage for details.
Note
If you are running Fuel 4.x or earlier, you cannot upgrade but must install Mirantis OpenStack 5.1 and redeploy your environment to use the new release.
