[Gluster-users] Glusterd2 project updates (github.com/gluster/glusterd2)

[Aravinda]

Completed
===========

- Memory Leak issue fixed - Memory leak was identified when
  client(mount, brick process, self heal daemon etc) disconnects.
  https://github.com/gluster/glusterd2/pull/1371

- Intelligent Volume expand by brick resize. If the volume is auto
  provisioned then it can be expanded by doing `lvresize` of each
  brick if space available in the device.
  https://github.com/gluster/glusterd2/pull/1281

- Intelligent Replace brick API - Glusterd2 will automatically choose
  the target brick matching the configuration of source brick which
  needs to be replaced.
  https://github.com/gluster/glusterd2/pull/1269

- Resilient Transaction Engine
  https://github.com/gluster/glusterd2/pull/1268

- Brick multiplexing support added
  https://github.com/gluster/glusterd2/pull/1301

- Device Edit support added, If any  required for device it
  can be disabled using the device edit API. If a device is disabled
  then it will not be considered for provisioning while creating new
  volumes.

- Handle local brick mount failures
  https://github.com/gluster/glusterd2/pull/1337

- Client Volfiles were stored in etcd to avoid generating in all nodes
  when a Volume is created or volume options updated. Now this is
  changed to generate client volfile on demand without storing it in
  etcd.
  https://github.com/gluster/glusterd2/pull/1363

- Device information was stored as part of Peer information itself,
  due to this multiple marshal and unmarshal was required while
  managing device information. Now the device details are stored
  separately in its namespace.
  https://github.com/gluster/glusterd2/pull/1354
  
- Default Options for new Volumes - Default Options groups for each
  volume types are introduced, which will be applied when a new Volume
