Announcing Openfiler 2.1 x86_64 beta 1

New 64-bit build for AMD Opteron and Intel EM64TOpenfiler 2.1 x86_64 (64-bit) build is now available.

This is a beta build and will be moved to 2.1 Final in short order once you have had the opportunity to give it a good bash. Note that this build is based on the latest 2.1 Final (x86) tree so I expect there should not be too many bugs lurking that are build-specific.

Starting from Openfiler 2.2 (available mid-November), both x86 and x86_64 builds should be released simultaneously.

Advantages of x86_64 build

  1. Larger filesystem limits
  2. Larger block devices
  3. Larger addressable memory

Downloads

Currently download is available from rPath's rBuilder only. The image will hit Sourceforge once we're at 2.1 Final (x86_64).
