github cloudnative-pg/cloudnative-pg v1.24.1

23 hours ago

Release date: Oct 16, 2024

Enhancements:

  • Remove the use of pg_database_size from the status probe, as it caused high resource utilization by scanning the entire PGDATA directory to compute database sizes. The kubectl status plugin will now rely on du to provide detailed size information retrieval (#5689).
  • Add the ability to configure the full_page_writes parameter in PostgreSQL. This setting defaults to on, in line with PostgreSQL's recommendations (#5516).
  • Plugin:
    • Add the logs pretty command in the cnpg plugin to read a log stream from standard input and output a human-readable format, with options to filter log entries (#5770)
    • Enhance the status command by allowing multiple -v options to increase verbosity for more detailed output (#5765).
    • Add support for specifying a custom Docker image using the --image flag in the pgadmin4 plugin command, giving users control over the Docker image used for pgAdmin4 deployments (#5515).

Fixes:

  • Resolve an issue with concurrent status updates when demoting a primary to a designated primary, ensuring smoother transitions during cluster role changes (#5755).
  • Ensure that replica PodDisruptionBudgets (PDB) are removed when scaling down to two instances, enabling easier maintenance on the node hosting the replica (#5487).
  • Prioritize full rollout over inplace restarts (#5407).
  • When using .spec.postgresql.synchronous, ensure that the synchronous_standby_names parameter is correctly set, even when no replicas are reachable (#5831).
  • Fix an issue that could lead to double failover in cases of lost connectivity (#5788).
  • Correctly set the TMPDIR and PSQL_HISTORY environment variables for pods and jobs, improving temporary file and history management (#5503).
  • Plugin:
    • Resolve a race condition in the logs cluster command (#5775).
    • Display the potential sync status in the status plugin (#5533).
    • Fix the issue where pods deployed by the pgadmin4 command didn’t have a writable home directory (#5800).

Supported versions

  • PostgreSQL 17 (PostgreSQL 17.0 is the default image)
