Chapter 7. 4.4 Release Notes 7.1. New Features This following major enhancements have been introduced in Red Hat Update Infrastructure 4.4. New rhui-installer argument: --pulp-workers COUNT The rhui-installer command now supports the --pulp-workers COUNT argument. RHUI administrators can use this argument to set up any number of Pulp workers by re-running the rhui-installer command with this argument. CDS nodes can now be configured to never fetch unexported content With this update, Content Delivery Server (CDS) nodes can now be configured to never fetch unexported content from the RHUA node. To use this feature, re-run the rhui-installer command with the --fetch-missing-symlinks False argument, and reapply the configuration to all CDS nodes by running the rhui-manager cds reinstall --all command. If you configure your CDS nodes this way, ensure you export the content before RHUI clients start consuming it. By default, cron jobs running regularly on the RHUA node export content automatically. However, you can manually export the content by running the rhui-manager repo export --repo_id REPOSITORY_ID command. Container support is now disabled by default With this update, support for containers in RHUI is disabled by default. If you want to use containers, you must manually enable container support by re-running the rhui-installer command with --container-support-enabled True argument, and reapplying the configuration to all CDS nodes by running the rhui-manager cds reinstall --all command. TLS 1.3 and HSTS is now available on RHUI With this update, Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.3 and HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) is now enabled in RHUI. This update improves overall RHUI security and also removes unsafe ciphers from the nginx configuration on Content Delivery Server (CDS) nodes. Packages can now be removed from custom repositories With this update, you can now remove packages from custom repositories using the text user interface (TUI) and the command line. ACS configuration is now available With this update, you can set up the Alternate Content Source (ACS) configuration in RHUI. You can use this configuration to quickly synchronize new repositories and content by substituting the remote content with matching content that is available either locally or geographically closer to your instance of RHUI. For more information, see CLI options for RHUI clients Custom repository prefixes are now available With this update, you can use a custom prefix, or no prefix at all, when naming your RHUI repositories. You can change the prefix by re-running the rhui-installer command with the --client-repo-prefix PREFIX argument. To remove the prefix entirely, use two quotation marks, --client-repo-prefix "" . 7.2. Bug Fixes The following bugs have been fixed in Red Hat Update Infrastructure 4.4 that have a significant impact on users. rhui-services-restart command restarts all pulpcore-worker services Previously, when the rhui-services-restart command was run, it restarted only those pulpcore-worker services that were already running and ignored services that were not running. With this update, the rhui-services-restart command restarts all pulpcore-worker services irrespective of their status. rhui-manager status command no longer indicates an incorrect status Previously, the rhui-manager status command returned an incorrect exit status when there was a problem. For example, even when a pulpcore-worker service was not running, the rhui-manager status command exited and incorrectly indicated that there was no problem by returning the 0 exit status. With this update, the issue has been fixed and the command now returns the correct exit status if there is a problem. rhui-installer now uses the --rhua-mount-options parameter Previously, rhui-installer ignored the --rhua-mount-options parameter and only used the read-write ( rw ) mount option when setting up RHUI remote share. With this update, rhui-installer can now set up remote share using the --rhua-mount-options parameter and other specified options. If you do not use the --rhua-mount-options , rhui-installer uses the read-write ( rw ) option by default. rhui-installer no longer rewrites container-related settings Previously, when you ran the rhui-installer command, it rewrote the /etc/rhui/rhui-tools.conf file, resetting all container-related settings. With this update, the command saves the container-related settings from the /etc/rhui/rhui-tools.conf file. As a result, the settings are restored after the file is rewritten.
