Element Store

  • ORION-265300: Made updates to prevent a flow where a severe HA event could result in some of the S3 bucket views being inaccessible through the S3 protocol.

Multi-Tenancy

  • ORION-254703: Enhanced tenant resolution logic to resolved an issue where the cluster occasionally returned access denied errors when users belonging to different tenants were using the same connection (S3 access keys).

S3

  • ORION-263906: Made updates to ensure that if the configuration for a view to be created includes a setting to enable bucket logging, the logging starts immediately upon view creation.

  • ORION-260268: Made updates to resolve an issue that could occur with ongoing multi-part uploads started prior to an upgrade to VAST Cluster 5.3, causing the cluster to return S3 status InvalidRequest on a repeated attempt to abort such an MPU after the upgrade.

Protocol Auditing

  • ORION-254660: Made updates to ensure that the audit log records for SMB requests against a non-default tenant configured to use SMB native authentication, contain non-empty LoginName, UID and SID field values.

VAST Data Engine

  • ORION-266063: Improved Kafka connection management to resolve an issue that could cause a CNode container to restart with the request size=<...> api=1 is larger than max large buffer max=1400000, we shouldn't get here" error when processing Kafka workloads.

Replication

  • ORION-262169: Improve handling of SMB directory symlinks during asynchronous replication to resolve an issue that could cause an ESTORE REPLICATION_QUOTA_FIXER deny list alert on the replication destination cluster.

  • ORION-248028: Improved handling of the associations between replicated identity policies and users or groups to which the policies are to be attached, to prevent unexpected removal of the association in scenarios where the replication between the peers is stopped and then started again.

VAST Database

  • ORION-259831: Resolved an issue that could cause write-write conflict errors if an NDU is initiated at the time when there are VAST Database transactions that have been started but not completed yet.

Authentication & Authorization

  • ORION-259236: Made updates to ensure that user impersonation configured for an SMB share controlled with the NFS or Mixed Last Wins security flavor, is also effective for the subfolders within the SMB share top folder.

  • ORION-223630: Added support for longer Unicode LDAP DN strings (up to 1020 bytes).

VMS

  • ORION-264536: Resolved an issue that could cause VMS to intermittently restart with the Worker did not register heartbeat for 900 seconds error.

  • ORION-262422: Made updates to ensure that Data Flow analytics can be displayed as appropriate when callhome obfuscation is enabled on the cluster.

  • ORION-249956: Added an ability to export metrics that report S3 client and server error responses using VAST Prometheus Exporter.

  • ORION-249747: Added validations to ensure that a VMS manager user belonging to a certain tenant, is not allowed to manipulate views, quotas, view policies, virtual IP pools or QoS policies that are not associated with the tenant.

  • ORION-233805: Resolved an issue that caused the VMS to return the This field may not be blank error when adding an IPv6 address to host-based access rules in an existing view policy via VAST Web UI, although the newly configured restriction was put into effect as appropriate.

  • ORION-217665: Resolved an issue with NIC status alarm generation that could cause false cable disconnection alarms.

VAST Web UI

  • ORION-261655: Made updates to ensure that the BMC version column in the Infrastructure -> DNodes page displays complete version values for the DNodes.

  • ORION-249163: Updated the logic behind the SMB continuous availability field in view policy settings (Element Store -> View Policies -> choose to edit a view policy) so that it does not automatically change from Enabled to Disabled when the policy is reopened for editing.

  • ORION-246617: The field for setting the unit of measure for the Minimum object size and Maximum object size filters of a lifecycle rule (Element Store -> Lifecycle Rules -> choose to view or edit a rule) is now compatible with the VMS setting that stipulates use of base2 units.

Platform & Control

  • ORION-271197: Added support for Solidigm SSDPF2NV153TZO SSDs in an EBox.

  • ORION-264357: Resolved an issue that could cause a CNode container to restart due to the ((new_chunk_size + INITIAL_BLOCK_OVERHEAD) >= (block_upgrade_ctx-<_io_buffer-<data_size())) (16302 >= 16253) Upgrade/downgrade function has run out of block capacity error.

  • ORION-256300: Made updates to prevent a flow that could trigger Sanmina DNode deactivation followed by temporary service disruption.

  • ORION-256301: Updated the logic responsible for handling SMB locks to resolve an issue that could cause CNode containers to restart with the waiting for a lock for too long (195000ms). aka- passed max compare and swap retries error when processing SMB workload.

  • ORION-254706: Resolved an issue where multiple CNode containers restarted due to the assertion failed: (!_value.is_nan()) error when processing a Spark query.

  • ORION-253097: Made updates to eliminate false slow boot-devices detected alerts on Ceres DNodes with Micron PCIe Gen4 boot drives.

  • ORION-242346: Made updates to ensure that replacement of a very large number of SSDs at the same time does not result in CNode containers being restarted due to the after deactivation of drive=<...> dbox=<...> will be at risk to have insufficient drives for mioc state and (load_successful) this might mean that system_format failed earlier <...> or that loading mioc failed due to unavailable dboxes/drives errors.

Call Home & Support

  • ORION-246724: Resolved an issue where support bundle collection from all of the CNodes could not be completed due to an internal timeout.
