[Pulp-list] Pulp 2.12.1 is now Generally Available

[Bihan Zhang]

Pulp 2.12.1 is now Generally Available in the stable repositories:

  https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/stable/2.12/
<https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/beta/2.12/>

This release includes a small number bug fixes for the Pulp Platform, and
the RPM Plugin.

There were 2 potential blockers filed during the 2.12.1 beta period:
https://pulp.plan.io/issues/2591 and  https://pulp.plan.io/issues/2600.
#2591 was resolved by the user, and #2600 was a beta packaging issue. Thus
this release is unchanged from the 2.12.1 Beta 1 release.

Upgrading
=========

The Pulp 2 stable repository is included in the pulp repo files:
https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/fedora-pulp.repo for fedora
23 & 24
https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/rhel-pulp.repo for RHEL 6 & 7

After enabling the pulp-stable or pulp-2-stable repository, you'll want to
follow the standard
upgrade path with migrations:

$ sudo systemctl stop httpd pulp_workers pulp_resource_manager
pulp_celerybeat pulp_streamer goferd
$ sudo yum upgrade
$ sudo -u apache pulp-manage-db
$ sudo systemctl start httpd pulp_workers pulp_resource_manager
pulp_celerybeat pulp_streamer goferd

The pulp_streamer and goferd services should be omitted if those services
are not installed.

el6 Support Reminder
====================

Pulp users running on RHEL or CentOS 6 are recommended to upgrade their
Pulp server to
the current major version of that OS, RHEL or CentOS 7.
