A summary of the Cockpit weekly release. There’s a new release every
week. Here are the highlights from this weeks 0.104 release.
Kubernetes iSCSI Volumes
------------------------
Peter added support for iSCSI Kubernetes Volumes in the Cockpit Cluster
dashboard. When you have container pods that need to store data
somewhere, it's now real easy to configure use an iSCSI initiator. Take
a look:

Listing View Expansion
----------------------
Andreas, Dominik, and I worked on a better listing view pattern. In
Cockpit we like to give admins the option to expand data inline, and
compare it between multiple entries on the same page. But after feedback
from the Patternfly folks we added an explicit expander to do this.

Tagging Docker Images in the Registry
-------------------------------------
The Atomic Registry and Openshift Registry support mirroring images from
another image registry such as the Docker Hub. When the images are
mirrored, they are copied and available in your own registry. Cockpit
now has support for telling the registry which specific tags you'd like
to mirror. And Aaron is adding support for various mirroring options as
well.

From the Future
---------------
Marius has a working proof of concept that lets you configure where
Docker stores container and image data on its host. Take a look at the
demo below. Marius adds disks to the container storage pool:
