All releases tagged Feature Enhancements


Release Notes: There is now a tool that will allow the user to test the real, not theoretical, potential data throughput between two nodes. This will allow determination of the lowest maximum bandwidth between nodes. --bandwidth will generate a graph displaying the highest throughput possible. This release has an outline and partial implementation of sub migrate(), which will allow DIASER users to move a node from one machine or VM/VPS to another. There have been minor bugfixes and typo corrections, and a fix to the fill DIASER algorithm. The ROADMAP has also been adjusted. The documentation has been updated to include the new features.


Release Notes: The main focus of this release is a comprehensive technical manual. The manual provides a descriptive overview of the DIASER architectural features as well as a short description of the design philosophy. All user settings and potential features are outlined. Plenty of general information is contained within this document. The manual is available both within the package release and online in HTML, PDF, and text formats. Other files in the release have been brought up-to-date, including the development NOTES. Password quality is now checked when generating new DIASER node account passwords.


Release Notes: This release uses the Perl module AppConfig for very simple configuration file syntax: diaser.conf. Improved configuration variable handling. Nearly all global variables have been removed from diaser.pl, and subroutines now take parameters as they are called for much better code modularity and maintainability. diaser.pl can now take more than one configuration file, and two are configured for safer development.


Release Notes: The chosen n*years worth of storage structure is now created. A month was extended to 31 days. Month length variations are covered. The sub gen_keys_dirs is now named gen_dirs. Key generation was moved from gen_keys_dirs to transfer_key_copy. The user variables $num_years and $start_year were added in config.pl. The menu was modified. diaser_setp.pl was renamed to diaser.pl.
