Bug fixes and updates.
Advance Warning
The following items are due to change in a future release.
Installation and Deployment
We intend to drop support for Java 17, making Java 21 the minimum. We plan to make this change in March 2024.
We aim to stop publishing the
jardistribution of LogScale (e.g.server-1.117.jar) as of LogScale version 1.130.0.Users deploying via Docker images are not affected. Users deploying on bare metal should ensure they deploy the
tarartifact, and not thejarartifact.A migration guide for bare metal deployments is available at How-To: Migrating from server.jar to Launcher Startup.
Deprecation
Items that have been deprecated and may be removed in a future release.
The
anyargument to thetypeparameter ofsort()andtable()has been deprecated and will be removed in version 1.142.Warnings prompts will be shown in queries that fall into either of these two cases:
If you are explicitly supplying an
anyargument, please either simply remove both the parameter and the argument, for example changesort(..., type=any)tosort(...)or supply the argument fortypethat corresponds to your data.If you are sorting hexadecimal values by their equivalent numerical values, please change the argument of
typeparameter tohexe.g.sort(..., type=hex).In all other cases, no action is needed.
The new default value for
sort()andtable()will benumber. Both functions will fall back to lexicographical ordering for values that cannot be understood as the provided argument fortype.In the GraphQL API, the
nameargument to theparserfield on theRepositorydatatype has been deprecated and will be removed in version 1.136 of LogScale.We are deprecating the
humio/kafkaandhumio/zookeeperDocker images due to low use. The planned final release for these images will be with LogScale 1.148.0.Better alternatives are available going forward. We recommend the following:
If you still require
humio/kafkaorhumio/zookeeperfor needs that cannot be covered by these alternatives, please contact Support and share your concerns.The
assetTypeGraphQL field onAlert,Dashboard,Parser,SavedQueryandViewInteractiondatatypes has been deprecated and will be removed in version 1.136 of LogScale.In the GraphQL API, the
ChangeTriggersAndActionenum value for both thePermissionandViewActionenum is now deprecated and will be removed in version 1.136 of LogScale.The
humioDocker image is deprecated in favor ofhumio-core.humiois no longer considered suitable for production use, as it runs Kafka and ZooKeeper on the same host as LogScale, which our deployment guidelines no longer recommend. The final release ofhumioDocker image will be in version 1.130.0.The new
humio-single-node-demoimage is an all-in-one container suitable for quick and easy demonstration setups, but which is entirely unsupported for production use.For more information, see Installing Using Containers.
Behavior Changes
Scripts or environment which make use of these tools should be checked and updated for the new configuration:
Ingestion
It is no longer possible to delete a parser that is being used in an ingest feed. The parser must first be removed from the ingest feed.
For more information, see Delete an Ingest Feed.
New features and improvements
Other
The
missing-cluster-nodesmetric will now track the nodes that are missing heartbeat data in addition to the nodes that have outdated heartbeat data. The newmissing-cluster-nodes-statefulmetric will track the registered nodes with outdated/missing heartbeat data that can write to global.For more information, see Node-Level Metrics.
Improvement
Storage
Allowed reassignment of digest that assigns partitions unevenly to hosts. This is to support clusters where hosts are not evenly sized, and so an even partition assignment is not expected.
SegmentChangesJobTriggerhas been disabled on nodes configured to not be able to store segments, thus saving some CPU time.
