Hi All,

StarCluster 0.93.1 has officially been released and is available for
download from the usual places:

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/StarCluster
http://web.mit.edu/stardev/cluster/download.html

News
- ----
NOTE: It is recommended that you upgrade as soon as possible!

Version 0.93.1 of StarCluster is largely a patch release that fixes
several bugs:

* Fixed major NFS bug in addnode command where /etc/exports was being
wiped each time a new node was added. This caused the last-to-be-added
node to be the only node correctly configured for NFS in the entire
cluster. (Thanks to Paul Koerbitz for reporting!)
* Updated all plugins which subclass DefaultClusterSetup to implement
on_add_node and on_remove_node regardless of whether or not they
actually use them to avoid the 'default' plugin's implementation being
incorrectly called multiple times by plugins when adding/removing
nodes using the addnode and removenode commands
* Fixed string formatting bug in Condor plugin

Also, the put and get commands have been marked stable which means they
no longer require ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL=True in the config to use them.

Features
- --------
* Added sys.argv to crash reports for better details when things break
* Implemented on_add_node and on_remove_node for TMUX plugin to
add/remove nodes from the TMUX control-center sessions for both root
and CLUSTER_USER
* Implemented on_add_node for the Ubuntu package installer plugin
(pkginstaller) to ensure new nodes also install the required packages
* Implemented on_add_node for the MPICH2 plugin to ensure new nodes
are configured for MPICH2 and also added to the hosts file. Moved the
MPICH2
hosts file to an NFS-shared location (/home/mpich2.hosts) for faster
configuration
* Implemented on_add_node for the Xvfb plugin that installs and runs
Xvfb on newly added nodes

You can find the docs for 0.93.1 here:

Please upgrade ASAP, test the new 0.93.1 release, and
submit any bug reports preferably to StarCluster's github issue
tracker[1] or to the mailing list.

Thanks to everyone for testing and reporting issues!
