2.0.0​

February 8, 2023

  • Added support for end user Self Service. Documentation can be found here and this feature comes in two variations, both of which can be used in conjunction with each other.
    • Hourly Accounting. VirtFusion tracks the server usage from start to finish and logs the duration and addons. Consult the documentation for configuration and limitations.
    • Resource Packs. Collections of resources (memory, storage, cpu etc...) allocated to a user. Consult the documentation for configuration and limitations.
  • Added support for NAT based networking (docs) with the following features.
    • User custom port configuration (20 + 3 service ports).
    • User domain forwarding configuration over ports 80 & 443.
    • Native IPv6.
  • Added the ability to customise the login screen with logo, background and text (Admin -> Settings -> Look & Feel).
  • Added firewall rulesets that can be assigned to server packages and applied on deployment or directly to a server.
  • Added support for Shell, Powershell, Batch and Python Provisioner scripts (Admin -> Server -> Provisioners). Provisioners are assigned to operating system templates at multiple points in the cloud-init configuration.
  • Added force IPv6 option to packages. This option will force IPv6 on the server instead of giving the user an option to choose if they deploy it or not.
  • Added the option to prevent users from changing their name and email address (Settings -> General -> Misc -> Allow Users to Change Account Details).
  • Added support for auto-detection of a suitable UEFI ROM (through Libvirt capabilities). This should solve the issue of failed server boots if the selected ROM is missing.
  • Added the option to disable cloud-init on a per server basis (Server -> Settings -> Cloud-Init).
  • Added server audit logs to track the user, ip address, endpoint and date/time of each action performed. Logs are not currently available to end users (Admin -> Servers -> Audit & Admin -> Server -> Audit).
  • Added the option to disable the forgot password option on the login page. This option is enabled by default (Admin -> Settings -> General -> Misc -> Allow Forgot Password).
  • Added a CLI command to restart application services on the control server. (vfcli-ctrl app:restart)
  • Added internal server action throttling. This allows fine grained abuse prevention of reboots, password resets etc... User definable options will be available in a future release.
  • Added search by user ID/email and self service resource pack to servers table.
  • Improved server migration integrity with write lock support for the metrics datastore.
  • Improved the end user IPv6 address allocation routine allowing faster generation of addresses from large subnets.
  • Improved VNC port allocation when server migrate completions are in a pending state.
  • Updates will now attempt to flush the previous version of the application from memory.
  • Fixed various issues with server package upgrades. (CPU topology now applies correctly).
  • Fixed many minor (insignificant) backend bugs and annoyances (control & hypervisor).
  • Multiple improvements to the admin user interface including fixes for previous display bugs.
  • Multiple improvements to the end user interface including fixes for previous display bugs.
  • All application dependencies have been updated to their latest versions (framework).
