Cockpit 0.111

[Stef Walter]

A summary of the Cockpit weekly release. There’s a new release every
week, although it's been a while since the release notes were posted.
Here are the highlights from this weeks 0.107 through 0.111 releases.

SELinux Enforcing Policy
------------------------

You can now temporarily disable SELinux enforcing mode from the SELinux
troubleshooting dashboard. This is useful when diagnosing permission
issues that you might think are SELinux related.

Change: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/4483

Stable Javascript API
---------------------

Cockpit now has a stable Javascript API for components or plugins to
build off of. Various unstable portions were removed from the
base1 package in preparation for this. There's more work going on to
help make it easy to build out of tree components or plugins.

GlusterFS in Kubernetes Dashboard
---------------------------------

The Kubernetes dashboard now lists Gluster volumes in the dashboard,
lets you configure them for pods to use.

Kubernetes Pending Persistent Volume Claims
-------------------------------------------

The Kubernetes dashboard lists pods which have outstanding volume
claims, and then allows you to fulfill those claims by creating
appropriate persistent volumes.

From the Future
---------------

Marius has worked on adding support for Linux network teaming to the
Cockpit admin interface. Teaming is a better more coherent way of
building a network bond.
