Red Hat's Stratis 3.8 Delivers New Features
It's been a while since a new Stratis feature release for this Red Hat led effort to enhance local storage management on Linux systems. Stratis was born out of a desire to provide Btrfs/ZFS-style features atop the mature XFS file-system and the Device Mapper (DM) subsystem and they have continued pushing that goal for RHEL and other Linux environments.
The Stratis 3.8 daemon feature release brings updates to its D-Bus API, now supports multiple token slots per unlock method, delivers various updates to its metadata handling, introduces snapshot revert support, enhances error messages on different issues, various stratisd-tools improvements, and a variety of other minor alterations and fixes. Stratis 3.8 is not the most exciting release for the project but another incremental step forward for those wanting to make use of advanced storage features on Linux using the XFS file-system without resorting to the likes of Btrfs or ZFS or Bcachefs.
