Major changes since Uyuni Proxy 4.0.0

Features and changes

Version 4.0.2

Prometheus Monitoring

We now include packages for the latest version of Prometheus.

Some exporters will be pre-installed on Uyuni Manager Proxy as part of its self-monitoring features. They will provide hardware, operating system, and HTTP Proxy metrics.

Formulas Update for Retail Branch Server

Formulas used to operate a Uyuni for Retail Branch Server were updated to support a SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP1 environment.

Configuration of Uyuni Retail Branch Server with Multiple Network Interfaces

During installation of Uyuni Retail Branch Server the secondary network interface, intended to be used for the terminal network, may be configured and bound to a firewall zone. This zone binding can interfere with the configuration of Retail services, and could result in you being unable to apply the highstate.

To avoid this problem, ensure that:

  • the primary network interface is either bound to 'public' zone or not bound to any zone

  • the secondary network interface either bound to 'internal' zone or is not bound to any firewall zone.

Do this by running these commands before you apply the retail formulas:

firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --change-interface=eth0
firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=internal --change-interface=eth1
firewall-cmd --reload

This example assumes eth0 is the primary interface and eth1 the secondary terminal interface.

Salt 2019.2.0

Salt has been upgraded to the 2019.2.0 release.

Upgrade from version 4.0.1

Warning
If you are using DHCP addresses and you do not use DHCP reservations, migrating from openSUSE Leap 42.3 to Leap 15.0 can change the IP address of your NICs. If using DHCP, make sure your instances have reserved IP addresses.

To upgrade an existing Uyuni Proxy 4.0.1 system to Uyuni Proxy 4.0.2, you can do an in-place upgrade, or you can set up a new system to replace the old one.

For more information about upgrading, see the Upgrade Guide.

Uyuni Server versions

Uyuni Proxy 4.0.2 can work with Uyuni Server 4.0.2

When upgrading, start with the server first and then continue with the proxies. See the advanced topics manual for detailed upgrade instructions.
