[Impact]
This release sports both bug-fixes and new features and we would like to
make sure all of our supported customers have access to these improvements.
The notable ones are:
- multipath removal handling
- centos8 support
- curthooks update initramfs only once for faster deployment
- block schema updates for raid, vtoc and ptable
- vmtest arch support for ppc64le and aarch64
See the changelog entry below for a full list of changes and bugs.
[Test Case]
The following development and SRU process was followed:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CurtinUpdates
Curtin now contains an extensive integration test suite that is ran using
the SRU package for each releases. These suite has documentation here:
https://curtin.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/integration-testing.html
In order to avoid regression to existing MAAS product, the MAAS team will
run their continuous integration test against the curtin that is in
-proposed. A successful run will be required before the proposed curtin
can be let into -updates.
The curtin team will be in charge of attaching the artifacts and console
output of the appropriate run to the bug. Curtin team members will not
mark ‘verification-done’ until this has happened.
[Regression Potential]
In order to mitigate the regression potential, the results of the
aforementioned integration tests are attached to this bug.
