# Open Build Service 2.8
#
WARNING:
WARNING: This is a development release, not for production usage!
WARNING:
Please read the README.SETUP file for initial installation
instructions or use the OBS Appliance from
http://openbuildservice.org/download/
There is also an install medium with installs OBS on hard disc now.
dist/README.UPDATERS file has informations for updaters.
OBS Appliance users who have setup their LVM can just replace
their appliance image without data loss. The migration will
happen automatically.
Features
========
* New obsservicedispatch service to handle source service runs in a queue
and asynchron.
* Allow admins to lock or delete users and their home projects via new command
* Users can be declared sub accounts of other users. Useful for automated scripts.
* Allow triggering services from the UI.
* Show a hint to project maintainers, when he/she is not a package maintainer of
the target package of a request
* multibuild: allow to build multiple jobs from one source package without the need
of creating local links
* /about route is now independent from request format
* workers are now also tracked when they went away (new states "down", "away" and "dead")
* Main projects list is now filtered based on a configurable (by the admin) regular expression
Wanted changes:
===============
* kiwi builds: build configuration changes from the project where the kiwi
file is stored have always an effect now.
* maintenance_release requests are locking only the source packages on
creation now. They don't lock the patchinfos. The project gets locked on release
now.
* service wrapper script for LXC got replaced by a docker alternative
Other changes
=============
* Server side pagination on user show page for improving the performance.
* The way to identify spiders got changed. A separate configuration via
apache is no longer required. See the Administration Guide.
Notes for systems using systemd:
================================
OBS is using init scripts, not systemd style .service files. This will stay until
we will switch from SLES 11 to SLES 12 as default production platform.
openSUSE installations may use systemd (instead of sysvinit) and it should work
in general. Not working are usages like
# rcobssrcserver status
You will only get the systemd status here.
Also stopping services may not kill all processes, which leads to abstract errors
when trying to restart them. We heard also about trashed MySQL databases when using
systemd.
To avoid these problems you need switch directory to avoid the systemd mapper:
# cd /etc/init.d
# ./obssrcserver status|stop|start
