RHBA-2017:2670 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform releases 3.5.5.31.24 and 3.4.1.44.17 are now available with updates to packages and images that fix several bugs.

Description

Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform is the company's cloud computing Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) solution designed for on-premise or private cloud deployments.

This advisory contains the RPM packages for Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 3.5.5.31.24 and 3.4.1.44.17. See the following advisory for the container images for this release:

https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2017:2643

This update fixes the following bugs:

• The iptables proxy was not properly locking its use of iptables. Therefore, the iptables proxy could conflict with docker and the openshift-node process and cause a failure to start containers. With this bug fix, the iptables proxy now locks its use of iptables. Pod creation failures due to improper locking of iptables no longer occur. (BZ#1481782, BZ#1484133)
• There were differences in the representation of the image object between internal and versioned, specifically the docker image metadata field. This prevented the ability to `oc edit` an image. ImageStreamTag only allows editing annotations, but that works only with the `oc annotate` or `oc patch` commands, which specifically say what is edited. When `oc edit` is being invoked, it has issues with the internal image object of an ImageStreamTag due to differences between internal and external representations of this object. This approach allows setting patchStrategy on struct objects, so they can be ignored, then deleted. With this bug fix, you can now `oc edit` an image without issue. (BZ#1482498)

All OpenShift Container Platform 3.5 and 3.4 users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages and images.
