Comment 16 for bug 1278466

I've prepared and tested an update to 0.79; you can see the package builds in:

  https://launchpad.net/~ceph-ubuntu/+archive/edgers

Using these packages, I deployed Ceph 0.79 as part of an OpenStack deployment using Cinder for volume management and ran the entire Tempest volume API test suite against the installation.

I also ran the smallio generator from ceph-test against the install whilst doing this.

In addition I tested an erasure encoded pool using documentation from upstream and ran the rados bench tool against it to confirm it was function.

Requesting an ack from the release team to upload to trusty.
