The OpenNebula project is proud to announce the availability of the second Beta of OpenNebula 5.4 ‘Medusa’.

This version is the third release of the OpenNebula 5 series. A significant effort has been applied in this release to stabilize features introduced in 5.2 Excession, while keeping an eye in implementing those features more demanded by the community. As usual almost every component of OpenNebula has been reviewed to target usability and functional improvements, trying to keep API changes to a minimum to avoid disrupting ecosystem components. An important focus has been on the vCenter integration, with an enhanced network and storage management. Also, new components have been added to improve the OpenNebula experience.

The OpenNebula team is now set to bug-fixing mode. Note that this is a beta release aimed at testers and developers to try the new features, and send a more than welcomed feedback for the final release. Note that being a beta there is no migration path from the previous stable version (5.2.1) nor migration path to the final stable version (5.4.0).

Hi ONE dev team / Tino,

Will there be a “RC” with “onedb upgrade” functionality to test?
