v9.0.0 released

sage

This is the first development release for the Infernalis cycle, and the first Ceph release to sport a version number from the new numbering scheme. The “9” indicates this is the 9th release cycle–I (for Infernalis) is the 9th letter. The first “0” indicates this is a development release (“1” will mean release candidate and “2” will mean stable release), and the final “0” indicates this is the first such development release.

A few highlights include:

  • a new ‘ceph daemonperf’ command to watch perfcounter stats in realtime
  • reduced MDS memory usage
  • many MDS snapshot fixes
  • librbd can now store options in the image itself
  • many fixes for RGW Swift API support
  • OSD performance improvements
  • many doc updates and misc bug fixes
