This second release makes Flux easier to deploy and operate by merging
the agent and balancer into fluxd; and, refines its service model
and user interfaces.
Highlights:
- Merge the balancer and agent into one binary
fluxd(and one container image) - Send heartbeat for host from
fluxd, and report live hosts influxctl info fluxd: withdraw instances that fail connections, and schedule retries with a backoffflux web: Show each charts alongside its instance (or group), rather than all togetherfluxd: Survive restarts of etcd, rather than crashing- Simplify the way instances are assigned addresses, making it a global setting
- Make instances that cannot be given an address visible, to help troubleshooting
Between releases, we have improved the documentation, among other things adding a "Get Started" guide.
The initial release provides scripts and container images needed to run Flux.
