This release contains the major refactoring and is backwards compatible with the previous releases.

The major topics of the current release are:

  • The way how variables are used is refactored, and we tried to deduplicate it as much as possible. We tried to lower the number of manual changes as much as possible. See quick start or any of other examples to get the idea of what was done.
  • HCL Connections deployment topologies are now controlled through the single variable (small/medium/large deployment)

Minor fixes:

  • Auto scaling disabled for 6.5.* to avoid breaking ElasticSearch
  • Testing latest versions of Kubernetes on branches 1.18, 1.19 and 1.20. Bumped base version for Kubernetes to 1.18.18 and Docker to 19.03.15
  • Made Kubernetes deployment easier by removing variable specifying specifically if the deployment is single node or multiple nodes.
  • Prometheus Exporter moved outside of Component Pack setup.
  • Added Prometheus Node Exporter support.
  • Added Prometheus Oracle Exporter support.
  • Added support for syncing LTPA timeout between Connections and Component Pack.
  • DB2 module refactoring - skip steps if DB2 is already up and running to save time.
  • Adding Java 8 support for TDI for new versions of Connections (not yet officially released and supported)
  • Adding Oracle cleanup support
  • Fixing cleanup scripts
  • Fixing ingress controller wait as per https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx/deploy/
  • Fixing bootstrap pod cleanup on reinstalls
  • Fixing Quick Start docs and replacing examples.
