[!IMPORTANT]
This release has been restored after having been erroneously deleted from GitHub. The attached assets have been rebuilt from the original source. Behavior should be 100% identical; but you may notice that package checksums/hashes have changed.

We are investiating methods for preventing this from happening in the future, and apologize for any confusion.

Warewulf v4.6.0 is a significant upgrade, with many changes relative to the v4.5.x series:

new configuration upgrade system
changes to the default profile
renaming containers to (node) images
new kernel management system
parallel overlay builds
sprig functions in overlay templates
improved network overlays
nested profiles
arbitrary "resources" data in nodes.conf
NFS client configuration in nodes.conf
emphatically optional syncuser
improved network boot observability
movements towards Debian/Ubuntu support

Particularly significant changes, especially those affecting the user interface, are described in the release notes. Additional changes not impacting the user interface are listed in the CHANGELOG.

https://github.com/warewulf/warewulf - v4.5.8

Warewulf v4.5.8 simplifies the "wwinit" boot process for SELinux and configures tmpfs to spread the node image across all available NUMA nodes. It also improves the detection of kernels in the container image to more reliably detect the newest available kernel and to avoid debug / rescue kernels.

This release also includes additional bug fixes and documentation improvements.

The full changelog is included below.

Known issues

wwctl container import behaves differently for directories than for images

Added

Added --syncuser flag to wwctl container shell. #1358
Added a troubleshooting guide. #1234
Added documentation about rootfstype=ramfs for SELinux support. #1001
Added workaround documentation for importing containers with sockets. #892
Added documentation for building iPXE locally. #1114
Documented that ignition is not available for Rocky Linux 8. #1373, #1272
Additional help text when container RunDir already exists. #1389

Changed

Interleave tmpfs across all available NUMA nodes. #1347, #1348
Syncuser watches for changes in mtime rather than ctime. #1358
Change the default permissions for provisioned overlay images to 0750 (dirs) and 0660 (files). #1388

https://github.com/warewulf/warewulf - v4.5.7

Warewulf v4.5.7 fixes the ability to override overlay files configured in profiles with overlays configured per-node; fixes a template processing bug bug in development-time overlay rendering; and improves the preview dracut-based boot process to better support a "secure" boot process.

It also adds the ability to temporarily copy files into containers for possible modification during wwctl container exec and wwctl container shell.

Dracut booting in v4.5.7 breaks compatibility with earlier versions of warewulf-dracut. To continue using dracut booting with Warewulf v4.5.7, update warewulf-dracut in the container image and re-build an initramfs inside the container. (docs)

https://github.com/warewulf/warewulf - v4.5.6

Warewulf v4.5.6 includes a significant fix for overlay autobuild, resolving a bug in v4.5.5 that caused autobuilt overlays to be empty. We've also added tab completion for the remaining subcommands of wwctl overlay, and simplified the wwctl container list command to break-out size calculations as optional and only report one type of size at a time. (Previously, container size was reported as the sum of the chroot, the uncompressed archive, and the compressed archive.)

The full changelog is below:

Added

Show more information during wwctl container <shell|exec> about when and if the container image will be rebuilt. #1302
Command-line completion for wwctl overlay <edit|delete|chmod|chown>. #1298
Display an error during boot if no container is defined. #1295
wwctl conatiner list --kernel shows the kernel detected for each container. #1283
wwctl container list --size shows the uncompressed size of each container. --compressed shows the compressed size, and --chroot shows the size of the container source on the server. #954, #1117
Add a logrotate config for warewulfd.log. #1311

Fixed

Ensure autobuilt overlays include contextual overlay contents. #1296
Fix the failure when updating overlay files existing on different partitions. #1312
Escape asset tag for wwclient query strings when pulling runtime overlays. #1310

Changed

wwctl container list only lists names by default. (--long shows all attributes.) #1117

https://github.com/warewulf/warewulf - v4.5.5

Warewulf v4.5.5 includes usability improvements and bugfixes for the v4.5.x line. This includes the restoration of previous behavior when running DHCP in "static" mode, reliability improvements for wwctl overlay edit, and fixes for overlay autobuild.

Known issues

Warewulf v4.5.1 is primarily a bugfix and dependency update release.

Updates to dependencies broke compatibility with CentOS 7, so we have also dropped support for CentOS 7 (which, itself, goes EOL at the end of June) in this release. (This only affects the ability to run the Warewulf server on CentOS 7: Warewulf can still provision compute node images running CentOS 7.)

https://github.com/warewulf/warewulf - v4.5.0

The Warewulf project is pleased to announce the release of v4.5.0.

There's a lot in this release! Some of the more prominent changes are described here. For a more complete list of changes, see the changelog.

Testing, linting, and code formatting

In this release we have significantly increased our focus on testing. Code changes, especially bug fixes, are increasingly accompanied by additional tests in the automated test suite, and this test suite is automatically run by GitHub against every pull request and every release.

Use the make test target to run the test suite locally whenever you're doing development of your own.

Additional Makefile targets have also been introduced (or improved) to aid in overall maintenance of the code base:

make vet uses standard golang heuristics to flag potential trouble
make fmt applies a uniform source code format

Documentation

Documentation continues to be an area for growth in Warewulf; but v4.5.x brings a number of improvements, some foundational:

v4.5.x documentation is now published separately, in addition to documentation for the main branch.
The quickstart guides have been updated, particularly combining the guides for Enterprise Linux (e.g., Rocky Linux, CentOS, and RHEL).
We've added a guide for using Vagrant as a development environment.

There have been a few other specific additions: for example, there is now explicit documentation for how to configure multiple networks on a cluster node, and documentation for the "hostlist" syntax used by multiple wwctl commands.

Please reach out via Slack if you'd be interested in helping to improve the project's documentation!

Preview features

This release brings three new features in a preview status: they haven't quite had enough use, testing, integration, or documentation to be ready for production, but they represent interesting new capabilities for the project and we are eager to hear about your experiences!

Initialize storage with Ignition

You can now initialize file systems, partitions, and disks on attached storage during node boot using the Ignition utility. This does not yet support provisioning the node image to local disk; but it can be used to provision storage to be mounted into the node image; for example, to initialize a swap partition, to format a scratch disk, or to prepare local storage for system logs.

More information is available in the documentation.

Use dnsmasq for dhcp and tftp

You can now use dnsmasq as a dhcp and tftp server in place of dhcpd and tftp-server. dnsmasq may become the default implementation in the future, unifying Warewulf on a single code-base for some of its down-stream services.

More information is available in the documentation.

Use GRUB as a node bootloader

You can now use GNU GRUB as a node bootloader in place of iPXE. Using GRUB introduces support for secureboot, and may also help us to overcome some limitations on node image size that we have encountered with the available releases of iPXE.

More information is available in the documentation.

wwctl commands and arguments

This release introduces multiple improvements to the wwctl utility.

New commands

wwctl container copy duplicates a container image to a new name, simplifying the process of testing a change in a test image.
wwctl container rename adds support for renaming a container image in-place. (Nodes and profiles that refer to the old name must be updated separately.)

New command options and flags

wwctl container syncuser --build automatically (re)builds a container image after syncuser.
wwctl <node|profile> list --all now only shows attributes that have a value set.
- wwctl <node|profile> list --fullall shows all attributes, including those which do not have a set value.
wwctl <node|profile> set --primarynet sets the primary network device for the node, to be used for Warewulf provisioning.
wwctl <node|profile> set --ipmiescapechar changes the ipmitool escape character.
wwctl overlay import --parents automatically creates intermediate parent directories.

Fixes and improvements

wwctl node edit is now much more reliable, with multiple bugfixes and a general rewrite of its temporary file handling.
wwctl <node|profile> set --mtu now correctly accepts valid MTU values.
wwctl container import can now import a container archive using a relative path.
wwctl container import --force no longer fails when replacing an existing container.
wwctl <node|profile> list now supports a comma-separated list of nodes or profiles to filter the list to be displayed.
wwctl overlay tab completion now supports completing files within an overlay.

Overlays

Much of Warewulf's functionality is actually implemented using its bundled overlays.

Nodes that use multiple profiles now include overlays from all associated profiles, applied in the order that the profiles are listed on the node (last wins). Individual overlays can be excluded using a ~ prefix.
Built overlay images are no longer erroneously / confusingly mixed with overlay sources by default. (For example, overlay sources may be included in /var/lib/warewulf/overlays, and overlay images will now be built in /var/lib/warewulf/provision/overlays.)
Built overlay images are now named either __SYSTEM__ or __RUNTIME__ by default, replacing the previous format that was a comma-separated list of the contained overlays.

wwinit

Network configuration files now correctly configure MTU.
Access to /warewulf/config is now restricted to root only.
Configuration of network device names is now more reliable, particularly for nodes with multiple interfaces.
ONBOOT is now correctly configured when using ifcfg.
Bonded network interfaces can now be configured via NetworkManager.

generic

The primary interface hostname is now used as the canonical name in /etc/hosts.
The Warewulf server FQDN is now used as the canonical name in /etc/hosts.

Configuration

Warewulf is primarily configured using two configuration files, warewulf.conf and nodes.conf.

warewulf.conf

ipaddr now supports CIDR format, optionally inferring netmask and network.
paths can be used to override compiled-in paths, e.g., for overlays, containers, and provisioned images.
tftp:ipxe now supports full paths.

All available configuration options can be seen in context using wwctl genconfig warewulfconf print.

nodes.conf

PrimaryNetDev now defines a single network interface as primary for a node (or profile), deprecating the primary boolean on each individual network device.

Build and packaging

Finally, a number of improvements have been made to the Warewulf build system, including its Makefile and RPM specfile.

Warewulf no longer bundles an iPXE binary within its source code or packages, preferring, in stead, the version of iPXE included with the host disribution.
- A local, updated build of iPXE can still be built using an updated helper script at scripts/build-ipxe.sh. (Use warwulf.conf:tftp:ipxe to configure Warewulf to use a local iPXE build.)
Warewulf can now be built on Fedora.
New releases now include a build for Rocky Linux 9.
New releases now include a build for OpenSUSE Leap 15.5 (replacing older versions of OpenSUSE Leap).
A nightly release is now published on GitHub.

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

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

Changes

New features

Changed internal interacation between the on disk YAML format and the in memory format. This enables the command line options to be autogenerated from the datastructures. Also this keeps the options for profiles and node set/add commands in strict sync.
Added node edit/export/import where the edit command exposes the YAML config for the given nodes in an editor. Nodes can also be added with this command. The export command simply drops the YAML config for the given nodes. With the import command nodes can be imported as YAML or as a CSV file. The CSV file must havr a header in where the first field must always be the nodename, the rest of the fields are the same as the long commandline options. Network device must have the form net.$NETNAME.$NETOPTION, which would e.g. be net.default.ipaddr
The default value (like kernel args) are no read in from the configuration file default.conf. If this file couldn't be read built in default values will be used.
Template files for NetworkManager are now present in the wwinit overlay. A interface must have the type ethernet or infiniband that these will be brought up by NetworkManager
Listings of container via wwctl container list will now show the creation,modification date and the size.
Initial cut of the warewulf API. See https://github.com/hpcng/warewulf/pull/471 ## Bug fixes
For the connections of wwctl ssh the primary interface will be used
Fixed kernel version in wwctl container show
remove the container image and not only the rootfs dir on delete
include and exclude handling for container were fixed

https://github.com/warewulf/warewulf - Warewulf 4.3.0

The Warewulf development team is happy to release Warewulf version 4.3.0!

Changes

The kernel is now part of the container by default which means the entire kernel and user space stack can be built, maintained, and distributed within a single container. It is still possible to override a specific kernel using the --kerneloverride option to nodes and profiles.
Network interfaces are no longer named as the "device name", but rather have a free from string as the network name with the initial name being "default".
Creating of '/etc/exports' can now be disabled, so that wwctl configure -a wont overwrite a existing '/etc/exports'.
All configurations files for the host (/etc/exports, /etc/dhcpd.conf, /etc/hosts) are now populated from the host overlay. Also other configuration files like prometheus.yml.ww or slurm.conf.ww which depend on the cluster nodes can be placed there.
New template functions now exist: {{ abort }}, {{ IncludeBlock }} and {{ no_backup }} are now supported.
Nodes can now have multiple system and runtime overlays, as a comma separated list.
Simple ipv6 support is now enabled. In warewulf.conf the option ipaddr6/Ipv6net must be set to enable ipv6.
Multiple files can now be created from a single template overlay file with the {{ file FILENAME }} command in the template. The command is expanded to the magic template command {{ /* file FILENAME */}} which is picked up by wwctl and everything which comes after this magic comment will be written to the file FILENAME. This mechanism is leveraged in the configuration files for the network, see ifcfg.xml.ww and ifcgf.ww.
Networks can now have arbitrary keys value pairs in the profiles and on the node, so that things like bridges and mtu sizes can be set
The yaml format for nodes has now sub-keys for ipmi and kernel, old nodes.conf files have to be changed accordingly
uids and gids of a container now get synced at import time, so that at least users with the same name have the same uid. This is not necessarily needed for warewulf, but services like munge.
Refactoring of the Warewulf daemon to support better concurrency and building overlays on the fly.

If you have any problems please join our Slack channel and/or submit an issue here: https://github.com/hpcng/warewulf/issues

This is also release has also breaking changes for the configuration files, as the format for the network devices in the nodes.conf has changed, Also warewulf.conf has a new way to configure the nfs exports on the master node and separate sections for the ipmi and kernel configs.

note: From this release on, the main branch will only get bug fixes until the next release. Development will happen in the develop branch.

First release candidate of the 4.3.0 branch. From this release on, the main branch will only get bug fixes until the next release. Development will happen in the develop branch. This is also release has also breaking changes for the configuration files, as the format for the network devices in the nodes.conf has changed, Also warewulf.conf has a new way to configure the nfs exports on the master node and separate sections for the ipmi and kernel configs.

Changes

Provision interface is not tied to 'eth0' any more. The provision interface must be named 'default' now. The file `nodes.yaml' must be changed accordingly.
Creating of '/etc/exports' can now be disabled, so that wwctl configure -a wont overwrite a existing '/etc/exports'.
All configurations files for the host (/etc/exports, /etc/dhcpd.conf, /etc/hosts) are now populated from the (OVERLAYDIR/host/etc/{exports|dhcpd|hosts}.ww . Also other configuration files like prometheus.yml.ww or slurm.conf.ww which depend on the cluster nodes can be placed. Also the new templated functions {{ abort }}, {{ IncludeBlock }} abd {{ no_backup }} are allowed now.
nodes and profiles can now have multiple system and runtime overlays, as a comma separated list. The overlays of the profile and the nodes are combined.
simple ipv6 support is now enabled. In warewulf.conf the option ipaddr6/Ipv6net must be set to enable ipv6. If enabled on of these options is set a node will get a derived ipv6 in the scheme ipv6net:ipaddr4. This address can also be overwritten for every node
Multiple files can now created from a single template.ww file with the {{ file FILENAME }} command in the template. The command is expanded to the magic template command {{ /* file FILENAME */}} which is picked up by wwctl and everything which comes after this magic comment will be written to the file FILENAME.
