Mar 1, 2026March 2026 (daos-stack/daos): Implemented a flexible rsync option for dmg log collection, removing the mandatory rsync requirement to reduce environmental friction. rsync remains available via FileTransferExec for scenarios that require it, improving cross-site deployment and log collection efficiency. This work aligns with DAOS-18642 and enhances operational resilience during troubleshooting.

Sep 1, 2025Month 2025-09 monthly summary focusing on stabilizing test infrastructure for the daos repository. The primary effort was addressing a critical test environment log path issue that caused daos_server log creation failures during testing. By updating the default test log path and iterating through engine configurations to ensure logs are written in the test log directory, CI reliability and test reproducibility were significantly improved. This period did not introduce new user-facing features; the emphasis was on quality, stability, and maintainability of the test harness.

Aug 1, 2025In Aug 2025, delivered persistent logging for the DAOS daemon by relocating log files from /tmp to /var/log/daos and updating installation scripts and configuration to reflect the new paths, enabling centralized and durable log storage. This change reduces log loss, improves monitoring, and simplifies debugging across environments. No major bugs were fixed this month; the emphasis was on hardening observability and deployment readiness, supported by the targeted commit DAOS-6344.
