Breaking changes#

  • Playbook sequence is different. Please read the documentation carefully.

  • Environment variables have been changed. Please update your configuration following the provided env-example file.

Added#

  • Playbooks are provided to upgrade to PostgreSQL 14.

  • Playbooks are provided to upgrade to Elasticsearch 8.

  • Backup & Restore playbooks for Kibana.

  • Allows automatic provisioning of authentication for Elasticsearch (on by default for IC 3.2+).

  • Playbooks automatically provision certificates for Elasticsearch. You may manually replace these certs later.

  • You can now configure network addresses of managed nodes through environment variables or by editing group_vars/all/config.yml, instead of editing inventory files.

    You must still run ansible-playbook with inventory files. E.g.:

    EIQ_HOST_IC_APP_01="10.10.2.95" ansible-playbook -i inventories/ic-test-small pb-pre_requisites.yml -vv
    

Improvements#

  • ansible-example.cfg has optional minor changes for session reliability.

  • Removed EIQ_IS_UPGRADE environment variable. No longer used. Playbooks now detect if you are performing a fresh install or an upgrade.

  • Removed legacy Elasticsearch playbooks.

Fixes#

  • Numerous fixes to PG clustering.

3x-1690533376 (28 Jul 2023)#

Changed:

  • Playbooks now use .env file instead of .envrc to set environment variables.

Fixed:

  • Fixed issue introduced by new version of java-11-openjdk-headless, where the package drops tzdata-java from its list of dependencies, causing Elasticsearch and Logstash services to fail to start because it depends on it. Playbooks now explicitly install tzdata-java.

3x-1689088308 (11 Jul 2023)#

Fixed:

  • Issue where statsite service would fail to reload as part of playbook run.
