Enhancements¶
This section outlines new features implemented in the Cluster release 7.2.0 that is introduced in the Container Cloud release 2.12.0.
MCR and MKE versions update¶
Updated the Mirantis Container Runtime (MCR) version from 20.10.5 to 20.10.6 and Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (MKE) version from 3.4.0 to 3.4.5 for the Container Cloud management, regional, and managed clusters. Also, added support for attachment of existing MKE clusters 3.3.7-3.3.12 and 3.4.1-3.4.5.
For the MCR release highlights and components versions, see MCR documentation: MCR release notes and MKE documentation: MKE release notes.
Ceph maintenance improvement¶
Integrated the Ceph maintenance to the common upgrade procedure. Now, the
maintenance
flag function is set up programmatically and the flag itself is
deprecated.
Ceph RADOS Gateway tolerations¶
Technology Preview
Implemented the capability to specify RADOS Gateway tolerations through the
KaaSCephCluster
spec using the native Rook way for setting resource
requirements for Ceph daemons.
Short names for Kubernetes nodes in Grafana dashboards¶
Enhanced the Grafana dashboards to display user-friendly short names for
Kubernetes nodes, for example, master-0
, instead of long name
labels
such as kaas-node-f736fc1c-3baa-11eb-8262-0242ac110002
.
This feature provides for consistency with Kubernetes nodes naming in the
Container Cloud web UI.
All Grafana dashboards that present node data now have an additional Node identifier drop-down menu. By default, it is set to machine to display short names for Kubernetes nodes. To display Kubernetes node name labels as previously, change this option to node.
