End of Life for Intelligence Center 2.14

We would like to notify you that EclecticIQ Intelligence Center version 2.14 is scheduled to reach its End of Life (EOL) on December 31st, 2024.

Initially released in October 2022, version 2.14 has enjoyed two years of robust support.
With multiple subsequent versions in the 3.x series now available, we have made the decision to conclude support for what has been our longest-supported version to date.

Fixes#

  • Update KeyLines.js package

    The platform depends on a KeyLines license which was set to expire on 30 July 2024.

    This release extends that license and upgrades the KeyLines package from 5.10.3 to 7.4.1.

    Users who do not upgrade their platform instances to the following versions will have parts of the platform stop working after 30 July 2024:

    • 2.14.2

    • 3.0.4

    • 3.1.3

    • 3.2.2

    • 3.3.2

Upgrade#

The following diagram describes upgrade paths available.

When upgrading from 2.8.x and earlier to 2.9.x and later:

  • You must run the pre-upgrade script to allow it to work with Elasticsearch 7.9.1.

  • You must run the pre-upgrade script on the Intelligence Center version you are upgrading from.

    For example, when upgrading from 2.8.0 to 2.10.1, you must run the pre-upgrade script on the Intelligence Center while it is running version 2.8.0.

When upgrading from 2.11.x and earlier to 2.12.x and later, you must install the EIQ-provided python38 package. For more information, see the upgrade instructions for your OS.
