2021.10.8

Release date: 13 June 2023

Bug fixes

• This release addresses some bugs affecting Orchestrator and Automation Ops. For details, see the individual product release notes.

Known Issues

• Erratum - added October 17, 2024: In a proxy environment, if the proxy server uses the same port as the TCP port of any other service in the Istio service mesh, such as port 8080, pods cannot communicate with the FQDN. The issue causes the following error:

  System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException: The proxy tunnel request to proxy 'http://<proxyFQDN>:8080/' failed with status code '404'.

  To fix the issue, see the Troubleshooting section.

• Erratum - added August 29, 2024: We have identified certain vulnerabilities associated with the usage of weak ciphers in TLS 1.2. For details on how to mitigate the issue, see How to address weak ciphers in TLS 1.2.

• Erattum - added June 25, 2024: Occasionally, some API calls from Studio or Robot can fail with a 413 error code or a RequestEntityTooLarge error message. To fix the issue, see the Troubleshooting section.
• Erratum - added May 20, 2024: On single-node deployments with in-cluster storage, upgrades from version 2022.4.1 or older fail at the fabric stage due to a rook-ceph migration issue. To prevent the issue, follow the instructions in this troubleshooting article: Single-node upgrade fails at the fabric stage.

• Erratum - added April 19, 2024: In certain situations, Prometheus pods can fail to start due to an out-of-memory (OOM) error. To fix the issue, see the Troubleshooting section.

• Erratum - added April 19, 2024: Alert configurations (email and webhook receivers) get lost on reboot of machine or re-sync of alertmanager-config secret. For details, refer to

  Persisting Alert Manager configurations during machine reboot.

• Erratum - added April 19, 2024: In certain situations, Ceph metrics and alerts are missing from the monitoring dashboards. To fix the issue, see the Troubleshooting section.

• Erratum - added April 19, 2024: False positive CephMgrIsAbsent alerts are displayed even though there are no storage issues.

• Erratum - added February 28, 2024: Stored procedures do not support collation differences between the SQL server and SQL database. To avoid any potential problems, you must ensure that the collation settings of both SQL server and SQL database are identical.

• Erratum - added January 2024: The replica cleanup script incorrectly reclaims storage on the nodes. For more details, see the Storage reclamation patch troubleshooting article.

• Erratum - added November 6, 2023

  In versions 2023.4.0 through 2023.4.2, if you have an Active Directory (AD) integrated environment, you will see sporadic failures from the product leading to the IIS application pool restarting. This issue has been fixed in version 2023.4.3, but it still affects the aforementioned versions. As such, if you use AD, we highly recommend that you directly install or upgrade to 2023.4.3. Otherwise, you will encounter functionality issues.

• After restoring an Automation Suite cluster with AI Center™ enabled, you must ensure the service token and cluster credentials are pointing to the restored cluster. For more information, check the AI Center-specific section in the Troubleshooting pages.
