rancher/rke2 v1.22.4+rke2r1

on GitHub

This release updates Kubernetes to v1.22.4.

Before upgrading from earlier releases, be sure to read the Kubernetes Urgent Upgrade Notes.
Special attention should be paid to the removal of several beta Kubernetes APIs, as this is a breaking change for users with apiextensions.k8s.io/v1beta1 CustomResourceDefinition or networking.k8s.io/v1beta1 Ingress resources in their manifests.

Known Issues

• #2085 - The rke2-metrics-server helm chart may fail to upgrade due to API version deprecations not handled by the MapKubeAPIs Helm plugin, leaving the metrics-server service non-functional following the upgrade. This will be fixed in the next release, but can be resolved by running:

kubectl delete helmchart -n kube-system rke2-metrics-server
systemctl restart rke2-server

• #1447 - When restoring RKE2 from backup to a new node, you should ensure that all pods are stopped following the initial restore:

curl -sfL https://get.rke2.io | sudo INSTALL_RKE2_VERSION=v1.22.3+rke2r1
rke2 server \
  --cluster-reset \
  --cluster-reset-restore-path=<PATH-TO-SNAPSHOT> --token <token used in the original cluster>
rke2-killall.sh
systemctl enable rke2-server
systemctl start rke2-server
