Release Highlights
Breaking Changes
Beginning from 1.9.x, tctl / temporal-cassandra-tool / temporal-sql-tool, will by default perform host name verification if TLS is enabled. Previous versions (1.0.x to 1.8.x) will not perform host name verification by default if TLS is enabled.
As the result of the above changes:
tls_enable_host_verificationflag is removed fromtctltls-enable-host-verificationflag is removed fromtemporal-cassandra-toolandtemporal-sql-tooltls_disable_host_verificationflag is introduced fortctlto opt out of host name verificationtls-disable-host-verificationflag is introduced fortemporal-cassandra-toolandtemporal-sql-toolto opt out of host name verification
