Version changes

Deprecations

Ubuntu 16.04

Ubuntu 16 support is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

Active-Active database persistence

The RDB snapshot option for [Active-Active database persistence]({{< relref "/operate/rs/databases/active-active/manage#data-persistence" >}}) is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

Please plan to reconfigure any Active-Active databases to use append-only file (AOF) persistence with the following command:

crdb-cli crdb update --crdb-guid <CRDB_GUID> \
    --default-db-config '{"data_persistence": "aof", "aof_policy":"appendfsync-every-sec"}'

Resolved issues

• RS95344 - Fixed known limitation for RHEL 7 and RHEL 8 where CRDB databases fail to start when installed using custom installation paths

• RS88010 - Roll back node configuration when the [remove node]({{< relref "/operate/rs/clusters/remove-node" >}}) operation fails

• RS95824 - Fixed an issue with running rl_rdbconvert on Ubuntu

• RS97971 - Fixed known limitation for the edge case where resharding fails for rack-aware databases with no replication

Known limitations

Operating system limitations

Ubuntu 20.04

By default, you cannot use the SHA1 hash algorithm (OpenSSL’s default security level is set to 2). The operating system will reject SHA1 certificates even if the mtls_allow_weak_hashing option is enabled. You need to replace SHA1 certificates with newer certificates that use SHA-256. Note that the certificates provided with Redis Enterprise Software use SHA-256.

Modules not supported for Amazon Linux 2 release candidate

A database with modules cannot reside on an Amazon Linux 2 (release candidate) node. Support will be added in a future maintenance release.
