• IMPORTANT: This release adds ability to disable post-start script for Elasticsearch jobs, If you're using BOSH 2.0 manifests with Elasticsearch instances deployed across multiple availability zone, then you should set elasticsearch.health.disable_post_start: true to prevent failing updates, as BOSH updates only one AZ at a time, while updating instance groups.

Notices

• IMPORTANT: This version of Logsearch is based on ELK Stack v5, please refer to Component Updates for upgrade procedure.
• This release adds post-start script for Elasticsearch jobs, that blocks shards reallocation during restart until the healthy state of cluster (#39). This eliminates the need to run enable_shard_allocation errand after each deploy.

Component Updates

• ELK Stack updated to v5 (Elasticsearch 5.0.0, Kibana 5.0.0, Logstash 5.2.2):
  • IMPORTANT: To upgrade from previous Logsearch < v205.0.0 versions you should configure parallel upgrade of ALL Elasticsearch Data instances, this can be done by adding next parameters to deployment stub:

    jobs:
    - name: elasticsearch_data
      ...
      update:
        canaries: 0
        max_in_flight: set equal to number of Elasticsearch Data nodes
        serial: true
    

    We also strongly recommend to run deploy command with --recreate flag.
  • Replace Kopf admin UI with Cerebro since Kopf is no longer maintained.
• Elasticsearch Curator bumped to 4.2.6:
  • Curator now requires unit and retention_period parameters for logs retention period configuration (default to 30 days).
• HAProxy bumped to 1.6.11:
  • Added optional config to enable HAProxy stats socket interface.
  • Added RELP frontend/backend to HAProxy.
• Redis bumped to 3.2.8
• OpenJDK bumped to 1.8.0_121
