A summary of the Cockpit weekly release. There's a new release every week. Here are the highlights from the 0.112 and 0.113 releases.
Display time information for systemd timer jobs ----------------------------------------------- Harish Anand a Google Summer of Code student working on Cockpit, and he's implementing systemd timers. These are similar to cron jobs, and are a structured way of running a command or other systemd unit at a specific time. Some of his initial work got merged, and you can see it in action here: Video: https://www.youtube.com/embed/2mGAlpZWQUQ?rel=0 Merged: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/4503 More: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/4645 Wireframes: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cockpit-project/cockpit-design/master/services/timers.png Hide unmanaged Network Interfaces --------------------------------- NetworkManager has the concept of marking certain network interfaces as "unmanaged". This is done with a NM_CONTROLLED="no" setting in a file placed in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ Cockpit now respects the admins wishes and and hides such interfaces from its Network configuration. The *On/Off* switch is also disabled appropriately for unknown interfaces. Change: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/4627 More: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/4640 Bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1330552 Network bonds are created with Active/Backup -------------------------------------------- When a new network bond is created the *Active/Backup* mode is used as the default. This is a more common choice for admins, and makes sense to point people in this direction. Change: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/4653 Bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1348066 Added textual fields to container resource sliders -------------------------------------------------- Users can now type actual amounts in memory megabytes, or CPU shares when starting a container, in addition to being able to use a slider.

The behavior now lines up with what users expect using the tuned-adm command line tooling. Change: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/4623 Bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1330473 From the Future --------------- Lars is working on making the terminal be resizable, so you're not limited to a small display when working on the machine. Change: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/4633 Try it out ---------- Cockpit 0.113 is available now: http://cockpit-project.org/running.html https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/releases/tag/0.113 https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/cockpit-0.113-1.fc24 https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/g/cockpit/cockpit-preview/ Take care, Stef
