Bug Fixes

• subnet configuration as list caused some issues Allow multiple subnets for nodes #424
• fixed master being used for compute despite useMasterAsCompute: False Master computes even if use master as compute set to false #455
• host file bug fixed via yaml lock Introduced yaml lock #464
• made waitForCloudServices a cloud specific key to accommodate hybrid clouds Made waitForServices a cloud specific key #465 where services are not present on every cloud
• if a worker with the same name as an already running server should be started by on demand scheduling, the existing server is terminated because for some reason it has decoupled from slurm. "Why" still needs to be investigated. Issue contained in Slurm Startup Issues Under Heavy Use #461
• DNS not working on many clouds DNS breaks down because /etc/resolv.conf is removed before the installation of dnsmasq #509
• NFSShare issues for certain folder structures due to an inspecific regex Nfsshare impossible due to inspecific regex #507
• fixed autoMount not working properly after update
• now users are informed about issues regarding running BiBiGrid with conda environments (related issue BiBiGrid Does Not Work With Conda Environments #524 )

Features

• improved -u --update capability Update action 515 #516 (now allows updating the worker specification)
• the timeout for waiting for the ssh availability of instance after its start is now a key sshTimeout in the configuration file Added keyword for ssh_timeout and improved argument passing for ssh. #483 we also have added a key for later on demand scheduling is called cloudScheduling: sshTimeout: 42.
• added dependabot and added other git project features
• It is now also possible to start permanent workers that are not on demand using onDemand: False 474 allow non on demandpermanent workers #487
• It is now possible to use your own ansible.cfg without needing to replace it everytime a bibigrid update comes around. Make custom ansible.cfg easier #485
• It is now possible to use your own slurm.conf without needing to replace it everytime a bibigrid update comes around. Allow for user given slurm.conf template #475
• Slurm upgrade. The new method works by pinning the current version. That way on demand scheduled workers stay on the same version the whole BiBiGrid cluster does. However, this will be overwritten if you update the cluster via bibigrids update command Upgrade Slurm #492
• Added structures and changed ansible.cfg so that new ansible roles can be included easily making use of the userRoles key Allow optional additional roles to be executed #439 (a dependency for Write 'starter pack' roles for workflow languages #440 )
• autoMount is now more advanced Replace autoMount by mountPoints  #506
• Added multiple configuration options for boot volumes (related issues Resource not found on floating ip assignment #523 Can't find resource during master start #519 Automatically created volumes are not terminated #522 )
