Deprecation
Items that have been deprecated and may be removed in a future release.
The
server.tar.gz
release artifact has been deprecated. Users should switch to theOS/architecture-specific server-linux_x64.tar.gz
orserver-alpine_x64.tar.gz
, which include bundled JDKs. Users installing a Docker image do not need to make any changes. With this change, LogScale will no longer support bringing your own JDK, we will bundle one with releases instead.We are making this change for the following reasons:
By bundling a JDK specifically for LogScale, we can customize the JDK to contain only the functionality needed by LogScale. This is a benefit from a security perspective, and also reduces the size of release artifacts.
Bundling the JDK ensures that the JDK version in use is one we've tested with, which makes it more likely a customer install will perform similar to our own internal setups.
By bundling the JDK, we will only need to support one JDK version. This means we can take advantage of enhanced JDK features sooner, such as specific performance improvements, which benefits everyone.
The last release where
server.tar.gz artifact
is included will be 1.154.0.The lastScheduledSearch field from the
ScheduledSearch
datatype is now deprecated and planned for removal in LogScale version 1.202. The new lastExecuted and lastTriggered fields have been added to theScheduledSearch
datatype to replace lastScheduledSearch.
Behavior Changes
Scripts or environment which make use of these tools should be checked and updated for the new configuration:
Functions
Prior to LogScale v1.147, the
array:length()
function accepted a value in thearray
argument that did not contain brackets[ ]
so thatarray:length("field")
would always produce the result0
(since there was no field named field). The function has now been updated to properly throw an exception if given a non-array field name in thearray
argument. Therefore, the function now requires the given array name to have[ ]
brackets, since it only works on array fields.
