Last updated Oct 17, 2024

2023.4.4

Release date: December 19, 2023

What's new

This Automation Suite version brings various small bug fixes and improvements.

Bug fixes

  • Erratum - added May 20, 2024: Previously, on single-node deployments with in-cluster storage, upgrades from version 2022.4.1 or older would fail at the fabric stage. A rook-ceph migration issue was causing the failure. The behavior no longer occurs.
  • Erratum - added April 19, 2024: We have fixed an issue causing the Prometheus pods to fail to start due to an out-of-memory (OOM) error.

  • Erratum - Added March 25, 2024: We have fixed a bug in the data migrator that was affecting the transfer of permission snapshots between two databases.

Out-of-support RHEL versions

Red Hat no longer supports RHEL 8.3, 8.4, 8.5, and 8.7. As a result, we have removed them from the list of compatible RHEL versions. We currently support RHEL 8.6 and 8.8, but we recommend using the latter.

If you move from an older Automation Suite version, make sure you use a supported RHEL version before starting the upgrade.

For more details, see the Automation Suite hardware and software requirements.

Known issues

Pods cannot communicate with FQDN in a proxy environment

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'.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.

Weak ciphers in TLS 1.2

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.

Support bundle log collection failure

Erratum - added August 14, 2024: An issue affects the support bundle generation when using an external OCI registry in an offline environment. Under these conditions, the generated support bundle lacks historical logs and cannot upload to any selected external object storage. To fix this issue, see the Troubleshooting section.

Unnecessary ListBucket API prerequisite check fails for external objectstore

Erratum - added August 14, 2024: For AI Center and Task Mining, the ListBucket API prerequisite check fails when using an external objectstore. However, AI Center and Task Mining do not use the ListBucket API permission. We removed the unnecessary check in Automation Suite 2023.4.8.

Support bundle generated with incorrect FQDN for AKS on Azure Government

Erratum - Added June 25, 2024​​: When generating the support bundle, an incorrect FQDN is used for AKS on Azure Government. We have fixed the issue in Automation Suite 2023.4.7.

Network policies in Airflow may cause improper functioning of DNS

Erratum - added June 3, 2024​​: Ocassionally the network policies for Airflow prevent the DNS from working correctly. To prevent the issue, run the following command.

sudo networkPolicyTool.sh --createNetworkPolicy ./Configs/networkPolicyTool/airflow.yaml --addsudo networkPolicyTool.sh --createNetworkPolicy ./Configs/networkPolicyTool/airflow.yaml --add
To install Network Policy Tool, follow the instructions in this troubleshooting article: Network Policy Tool​​. This issue is fixed in Automation Suite 23.10.3.

Issues affecting Ceph metrics and alerts

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.

Issues related to CephMgrIsAbsent alerts

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

Collation differences between SQL server and SQL database not supported

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.

CVEs related to Flannel and Calico

To avoid CVEs related to Flannel and Calico, we recommend taking the following steps:

  1. Migrate from Canal to Cilium CNI.
  2. Delete the following Calico and Flannel images:
    • image: rancher/hardened-calico, tag: v3.22.2-build20220509
    • image: rancher/hardened-flannel, tag: v0.17.0-build20220317

Deprecation timeline

We recommend that you regularly check the deprecation timeline for any updates regarding features that will be deprecated and removed.
