What's New in Version 0.3.84
2 minute read
Welcome to Management Console version 0.3.84! In this release, we have introduced a new tutorial for first installation and enhanced the backend capabilities for helm values.yaml and kubernetes secrets. We’ve also added functionality for flashing USB sticks with our iPXE image, transmitting additional debug information, and event tracking. Our Management Console now features pop-ups for microservices on device overview page, faster installation speed, and reduced log size. We’ve also addressed several bugs that improve the overall usability of the Management Console.
First Installation Tutorial
We’ve added a tutorial to guide you through the process of setting up a local instance and then opening and using NodeRed and Grafana.
Backend Enhancements
Our backend is now capable of retrieving and modifying the helm values.yaml. This enables future stack management features. Additionally, the backend can now request device Kubernetes secrets, further enhancing the user experience.
USB Sticks Flashing
You can now flash USB sticks with our iPXE image directly from the Management Console. Please note that this requires a USB stick with at least 4GB capacity, and the new device needs to be manually added to the MgmtConsole by importing the kubeconfig.
Debug Information Transmission
We’ve added an optional feature that allows you to transmit additional debug information to us. This feature is disabled by default but can be enabled for troubleshooting purposes.
Install Speed
We’ve worked on improving our installation process. As a result, the installation speed has been significantly increased.
Microservices Pop-ups
We’ve added pop-ups for microservices on the device overview page. These pop-ups contain crucial information such as ports, configurations, login credentials, help links, and more.
Event Tracking
We’ve added event tracking to help us better understand user behavior and improve the product. This feature is enabled by default.
Bug Fixes
- MgmtConsole no longer freezes after local install.
- MgmtConsole now ignores invalid certificates.
- Redpanda no longer always shows as offline.
- Backend now checks if socket connection is required, or HTTP over TCP can be used.
- MgmtConsole no longer freezes after signing out from the device tree page.
- Docker is now checked before verifying if the stack is installed locally.
