  • containernetworking-plugins now available

    The Container Network Interface (CNI) project consists of a specification and libraries for writing plug-ins for configuring network interfaces in Linux containers, along with a number of supported plug-ins. CNI concerns itself only with network connectivity of containers and removing allocated resources when the container is deleted.

    The containernetworking-plugins package is now available as a technology preview. It is a dependency of the podman tool, and will remain as a technology preview until podman becomes fully supported.

  • LiveFS now available

    Previously, layering packages on Atomic Host required a reboot for the software to be available on the system. The LiveFS feature removes the need to reboot, making layered packages available instantly.

    See Package Layering for more information and usage instructions.
