RapidDisk 4.0 now available.
RapidDisk is an open source and enhanced Linux RAM drive solution. Dynamically create, resize, and remove RAM drives. Or map those same RAM drives as a cache to slower data volumes. RapidDisk consists of a collection of kernel modules, an administration utility, High Availability scripts, and a RESTful API for third party integration. By design, RapidDisk volumes are thinly provisioned and will only allocate memory upon usage.
Updates include:
- Fixed libcryptsetup build error for RHEL6.
- Renamed rxdsk/rxcache modules.
- Did massive cleanup of administration utility code.
- Converted most (if not all) return codes to POSIX.1 error numbers.
- Code cleanup in RESTful API.
- RapidDisk volumes now show up as non-rotational.
- Cleaned up ioctls in both module and utilies.
Note – Please review the documentation, module names and a few of the command invocations have changed.
You can pull it from the git, yum, apt, zypp repos or download it from the SourceForge project page.
