If this parameter is set to true, it configures the log_name option differently for each daemon, which may help splitting log destinations per daemon. For example, the object-replicator log_name will be object-replicator, the object-updater log_name will be object-updater and so on.

• The new swift::objectexpirer::log_name option has been added.

• The following options have been added to the swift::containerreconciler class.

• The purge_config parameter has been added to the following classes and defined resource types

  • swift

  • swift::containerreconciler

  • swift::internal_client

  • swift::memcache

  • swift::objectexpirer

  • swift::storage::server

• The new swift::proxy::read_only class has been added.

• The swift::storage::disk defined resource type now supports the following parameters.

  • filesystem_type

  • mount_type

  • label

• The swift::storage::server defined resource type now supports the following parameters.

  • conn_timeout and node_timeout for global values

  • updater_conn_timeout and updater_node_timeout for container-updater and account-updater

  • replicator_conn_timeout and replicator_node_timeout for object-replicator, container-replicator and account-replicator

  • reaper_node_timeout and reaper_node_timeout for account-reaper

  • container_sharder_container_timeout and container_sharder_node_timeout for container-sharder

• The swift::storage::servce defined resource type now supports the following parameters.

  • updater_interval used by container-updater and object-updater

  • reaper_interval used by account-reaper

• The swift::storage::xfs defined resource type now supports type => 'label', which uses filesystem label for mount. When this is used, the defined type adds the label, according to the new label parameter, which defaults to the title, when creating a XFS file system.

• Default value of swift::containererconciler::pipeline has been updated and the default pipeline now contains the cache middleware.
