DON'T UPGRADE from/to any RC/Preview releases, because the operation is not supported.
v1.1.1 RC2 released! 🎆
There are many new features, enhancements, and bug fixes including different areas as below. Especially, most of the major items are driven by community users to enhance and improve Longhorn functionalities and stability.
Thanks for all the contributions!
- Automatic Longhorn Engine Upgrade
- Before v1.1.1, for live engine image upgrade, users only can manually upgrade the engine image of each healthy volume. v1.1.1 supports this to avoid needless user intervention.
- Virtualization Machine Volume Support
- Virtual machine volume creation by Longhorn backing image
- Backing image management native support without any 3rd-party image repository
- Virtual machine live migration support by Longhorn migratable RWO volume
- Ability to use as a volume storage service by virtualization orchestration solutions like Harvester
- Granular Resource Reservation for Longhorn Engine/Replica
- Before v1.1.1, users only can configure a global setting for CPU resource reservation for each engine/replica. v1.1.1 supports granular node-specific settings for each engine/replica individually.
- AWS IAM Role Support to Generate Temporary AWS credentials
- Besides using IAM user credentials, v1.1.1 allows users to configure IAM Assume Role to generate temporary credentials by AWS security token service to do the backup and restore operations.
- Longhorn Frontend WebSocket Performance Enhancement to Improve User Experience
- v1.1.1 improves the UI performance to adopt event-driven data update to reduce needless network traffic caused by frequently pulling the updated info from the backend.
- Dependency Installation Manifests for Node Prerequisites
- v1.1.1 comes out with some installation manifests for prerequisites (like iSCSI and NFS client libraries). It's not integrated into the Longhorn installation process, but it's optional and helpful for users to prepare the environment ready for Longhorn.
Installation
Longhorn supports 3 installation ways including Rancher catalog, Kubectl, and Helm. Follow the installation instructions here.
Upgrade
The live upgrade from v1.1.0 is not supported until the GA release. When available, follow the upgrade instructions here.
