RHEA-2017:1112 - Product Enhancement Advisory

Topic

Updated cns-deploy-tool packages that fix several bugs and add various enhancements are now available.

Description

The 'cns-deploy' utility provides a tool to deploy Container-Native Storage on the Openshift environment.

The following list provides the major bug fixes and bug enhancements included for this release:

• Previously, the user had to keep track of the namespace, and had to mention the namespace for heketi to contact the kube client using the namespace value. With this release, the user can get the Kubernetes option to connect to kube client from the secret mounted in the heketi pod, resulting in better usability. (BZ#1406344)
• OpenShift Container Platform provides an integrated registry with storage using an NFS-backed persistent volume that is automatically setup. With this release, you can replace this volume with a Red Hat Gluster Storage persistent volume for registry storage that provides increased reliability, scalability, and failover. (BZ#1415763)
• Previously, there was no option to set the heketi admin user secret when deploying Container Native Storage. With this release, administrators now have an option to create a secret that will be used for authentication for accessing Heketi. CNS-deploy now allows to set the secret for the heketi "admin" user for volmanager (heketi container) which is created in the deployment process. (BZ#1430859)
