Also, the list of release notes have been removed from the upgrading
document. The referral to the ChangeLog remains. That way, the list
of release notes need not be maintained in several places.
Instead of keeping the same information in two places, the build
instructions can simply refer to the actual build script used to prepare
the MaxScale builds. This makes the build process easier.
Remove the old paragraph and added a note about defining separate
listeners for UNIX domain sockets and network ports.
Also fixed the example listener definition.
Made the document more concise and added links to the download page. Made
the user grants easier to copy-paste and explained that they are used in
the following tutorials. Updated the links to the new tutorials.
The read-write splitting routing tutorial is a combination of the two
different read-write splitting routing tutorials. As with the connection
routing tutorial, this should reduce the maintenance burden.
The connection routing tutorial is a combination of the two different
connection routing tutorials. This should reduce the maintenance burden by
a significant amount.
The tutorials combine the Galera and MariaDB monitor configuration as well
as the server configuration sections that were duplicated for all
tutorials. This should make the documentation easier to maintain.
Removed the `socket` options from the network listeners.
Updated wording for the listener sections to only mention network
ports. This makes the tutorial more concise.
The password encryption was documented in the installation instructions
and the main configuration document referred to it as a "section" in the
same document. Having it in the main configuration document makes it the
authoritative source of information.
When the -p parameter is given without an argument, the password is read
from the command line. This allows passwords to be given to MaxCtrl in a
safer manner.
When MaxAdmin would be used without a controlling terminal, it would
refuse to accept passwords from stdin as it could not set the terminal
attributes. This means that executing MaxAdmin commands from other
programs would fail if the process had no controlling terminal.
Turning the error into a warning will allow users to know that terminal
echo is still enabled before they type their passwords.
Listed changes to MaxCtrl and the CDC connnector to release notes. Added a
note into the upgrade document about the beta versions of the MaxCtrl
client.
Placed the CDC Connector documentation in the main documentation directory
under the Connector directory. Added a link into the
Documentation-Contents.md document.
