metal-stack v0.20.0

See original release note at https://github.com/metal-stack/releases/releases/tag/v0.20.0

General​

Required Actions​

  • The ChildPrefixLength property was removed from the partition entity and moved into the network entity. So, every tenant super network must now be configured with DefaultChildPrefixLength accordingly. The existing values in the database are migrated automatically, but the deployment has to be adapted.

    It is required to add the new property to the tenant super network, like:

     defaultchildprefixlength:
       IPv4: 22

    Also ensure that all firewall-controllers are up-to-date in all firewalls before adding IPv6 prefixes to any of the existing networks. (metal-stack/metal-api#549)

  • Another audit backend based on Postgres and TimescaleDB was added as an alternative to the existing Meilisearch backend.

    For this, the variables metal_auditing_enabled, metal_auditing_index_prefix, metal_auditing_index_interval, metal_auditing_url were renamed to metal_auditing_meili_enabled, metal_auditing_meili_index_prefix, metal_auditing_meili_index_interval, metal_auditing_meili_url. Please adapt your deployment accordingly.

    If you switch the backend, be aware that backup data of the Meilisearch backend remains and manual cleanup is required. (metal-stack/metal-roles#310)

  • Kubernetes 1.31 for worker nodes require to run on the latest OS metal-images. (metal-stack/os-metal-extension#54)

  • To prevent using incompatible metal-os images in combination with Kubernetes 1.31 worker nodes, use the new deployment parameter gardener_os_compatibility_mapping in order to add a Kubelet version constraint to your CloudProfile machine images:

    gardener_os_compatibility_mapping:
      ubuntu:
        when:
          operator: "<"
          version: "24.04.20250228"
          except:
            - "24.04"
        kubelet: "<= 1.30"
      debian:
        when:
          operator: "<"
          version: "12.0.20250228"
          except:
            - "12.0"
        kubelet: "<= 1.30"
