Bug fixes, features, and important changes.

  • The notify_master_rx_lower_pri previously exposed in 4.3.0 was partially incorrect, it also was applied incorrectly to sync_groups. As no such thing exists in keepalived, that was removed, fixing a bug of incorrect templating. Reported by @elcomtik
  • Added support of Ansible 3.0 by changing the metadata of this role.
  • Added a feature, keepalived_sysctl_tcp_retries, that automatically configures sysctl tcp_retries2. It is useful for faster failover. I used to set it on my machines, but it's not the first time I hear people wanting to have it in the role (to understand the context of the change), so here it is. By default, this will set the sysctl to a more appropriate default (8) than the current linux default of "15". If you have other roles defining your sysctls running on the same nodes as the ones running keepalived, keep that sysctl in mind! This is a "breaking" change, as behaviour of systems is effectively changed by this. We are bumping this role to a new X version.

I hope you enjoyed reading those release notes, drop me a message if you like this role!
