We just uploaded a bunch of packages to our pvetest repository, including all features and packages for the upcoming stable release of 3.1, including update management via GUI, SPICE and the brand new GlusterFS storage plugin.

great news; there seems to be a little glitch, though: after updating to this version, there's a new password-protected apt repo configured, which prevents from further updates:

After Upgrade:
HA does not work. HA write error (Member node02 trying to enable pvevm:1xx...Could not connect to resource group manager) when start VM. If VM locate on the node which down,there is no relocate on other working nodes. Or relocate, but without 1xx.conf file. VM is working on the node but conf file from VM, locate on another node.
When the VM not enabled in HA there is not any problems.

Before upgrade, everythings was working.
 
After upgrading, I got this message after every Login:

This is an informative message (I guess you do not have a subscription).
 
it's not related to storage. this is for vm migration between 2 hosts without using ssh tunnel. (it's global)
I was confused by the config file. Would it not have been more appropriate to have put that setting in datacenter.cfg? It is global and is therefore related to the data center as such.
