<br>

now been uploaded into gerrit and are going through
testing\inspections (LU506) <br>
-RHEL 6.2 server\client support in progress (LU751)<br>
<br>
Testing <br>
======= <br>
<br>
-Ongoing effort has been put into extending the degree of test
automation; NFS testing and recovery testing are those closest to
landing<br>
<br>
The main focus over the coming two weeks will continue to be
landing feature candidates. <br>
<br>
Feature Candidates <br>
================== <br>
<br>
The targeted release date remains March 2012. The following
features have been proposed for 2.2 and some (but certainly not
all) may be ready for landing before the Feature Freeze (January
7th). Those that are not ready in time will likely be in the 2.3
release scheduled for September 2012. <br>
<br>
- Client parallel checksums (LU884)<br>
- Data Version Per File (LU827) <br>
- Large xattrs (a.k.a "Wide Striping") (LU80)<br>
- Layout Lock (LU169)<br>
- Manage Dirty Flag for HSM (LU941)<br>
- mds-survey (LU593/LU633)<br>
- OSD API (LU909)<br>
- OST object asynchronous glimpse (LU925)<br>
- Quota protocol/code improvements (LU847)<br>
- SLES11 server patches (landed to tree but not built into
automated testing) (LU335)<br>
<br>
We will continue to provide periodic updates on our progress on
this release. In the meantime, you can always see the landings as
