Release Note

This release follows Harvester v1.1.1, the documentation is available at https://docs.harvesterhci.io/v1.1.

Important information about Rancher support

If you are using Rancher v2.7.2 with Harvester v1.1.1 clusters, you will not be able to select the Harvester cloud provider when deploying/updating guest clusters. This issue has been documented in detail in #3750.

To resolve this issue, there are two options available:

• Upgrade your Harvester cluster to v1.1.2.
• Apply a manual patch to the harvester-csi-ccm-versions setting:

  $ kubectl edit settings.harvesterhci.io harvester-csi-ccm-versions
  
  # and patch the default value as below
  default: '{"harvester-cloud-provider":">=0.0.1 <0.2.0","harvester-csi-provider":">=0.0.1 <0.2.0"}'
