2022.4.4

Release date: 14 March 2023

What's new

Automation Suite now supports RHEL 8.7.

Release date: 2 February 2023

Improvements

Provisioning Rules for SAML

When using the SAML integration, you can now define rules based on which users are automatically added to local groups in Automation Suite. With a local group that is adequately set up, you can auto-provisions users with the licenses, roles, and robot setup they need for their job.

Configuring the SAML integration

Optimized Support Bundle Tool

We have optimized the overall time required to collect the RKE2 support bundle from the Automation Suite cluster.

Security Enhancements

We continue to provide security updates and patches to address Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs).

Bug Fixes

• Previously, our scripts would only partially remove logs during cleanup operations, which could result in storage filling up. The problem no longer occurs. If you upgrade from a previous Automation Suite version, you might want to clean up your old logs using a dedicated script.
• The LdapException*A local error occurred error was logged in Identity Server when you tried to integrate Automation Suite with Active Directory. The issue was caused by the dependency on reverse DNS lookups in the Kerberos Authentication Service configuration (krb5.conf file).

Known Issues

• 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.

• Erattum - 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.

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

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

• Disabling or changing the AD integration settings does not update the underlying directory connections properly. See the troubleshooting section for the workaround.
