v1.8.0

Release notes subject to change (using automatic release notes here) to be more useful, but this adds PVE 8 support and updates Ceph default repo.
There are probably upgrade steps you need to follow from https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Ceph_Pacific_to_Quincy, and possibly other steps as well depending on what PVE features you're using.

Not sure if this will be installable from the new Ansible Galaxy, so just in case, refer to lae/ansible-role-netbox#174 for some advice.

Managed to get this in before Sana finished her stream, huh. Also happy birthday, Hoshimiya ichigo.

Full Changelog: v1.7.1...v1.8.0

v1.7.1

Mostly bug fixes and some minor improvements/additions. Proxmox pools can now be configured.

Changes/Fixes
#116 Initial support for EFI-based systems. Should help with running the role on PVE installed via ISO somewhat, but this is still not supported.
#187 Use more correct SSH service name
#188 Fix check mode for deployments using Ceph
#189 Support for configuring Proxmox pools
#190 Ignore kernel module directories that have no installed kernel when doing kernel detection
#191 Fix ZFS modprobe options from not taking effect
#194 Fix duplication issue when using multiple CephFS mounts
#195 Fix Ceph deploy issue when there are no OSDs
#200 Deprecate legacy clustering variables as stated in release 1.6.9

Full Changelog: v1.7.0...v1.7.1

v1.7.0

Major feature release, adding support for PVE 7.x deployments. PVE 5.x can not be deployed with this version (6.x is fine).

Due to an oversight to how PVE merges known_hosts when adding nodes to a cluster, earlier versions of this role resulted in a convoluted /etc/pve/priv/known_hosts. This has been fixed, but you may wish to modify that file by hand to remove duplicates and comments. This is mainly a cosmetic issue and (as far as I know) doesn't affect PVE's operation.

Changes/Fixes
#114 ZFS pool and ZFS volume creation support
#125 Enable cache updating on PVE installation apt task
#155 PVE 7.x support and 5.x deprecation
#168 Remove unsupported implementation of Let's Encrypt certificate generation
#172 Subscription patches removed.
#173 Ensure hosts with PVE already installed can join clusters
#176 Fix idempotency verification of Ceph crush map modification tasks
#179 Fix module naming conflict on ceph_volume
#183 Allow rebuilds of first host in a cluster inventory

Full Changelog: v1.6.9...v1.7.0

v1.6.9

Final release for PVE 5.x. A couple bug fixes/improvements and Ceph improvements.

Please take this opportunity to upgrade your cluster to PVE 6.x (and then to 7.x if you can) if you have not done so already, as 5.x/Stretch is EOL.

#121 Add autoscale mode for Ceph pool configuration
#122 pve_ceph_mgr_group role variable to specify group of hosts to deploy the Ceph manager daemons on
#123 Correct list of required attrs for RBD storages
#124 Add the ability to disable hosts file management with pve_manage_hosts_enabled role variable
#128 Add CephFS storage type
#130 Ensure Ceph monitors only deploy on hosts in pve_ceph_mon_group
#131 Add pve_ceph_nodes role variable to limit which nodes Ceph is installed on.
#135 Replace fetch tasks with slurp and identify kernel in check mode
#136 Subscription patch fix (although this is outdated by the time of this release)
#139 Simplify patching of checked_command function
#140 (and subsequent fix in fbe315c) Manage /etc/hosts, even when clustering is disabled
#146 Throttle rebooting of cluster nodes when upgrading kernels (with optional pve_reboot_on_kernel_update_delay role variable)

v1.6.8

Mostly a bug fix release.

#100 Support modifications of the CRUSH map
#101 Allow CRUSH rule types to be specified
#103 Support creation of encrypted OSDs
#105 Ensure gpg is installed
#108 Skip modification of /etc/hosts and PVE::CLI::pvecm if clustering is not enabled
