Bug fixes and updates.

Deprecation

Items that have been deprecated and may be removed in a future release.

  • 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 the ScheduledSearch datatype to replace lastScheduledSearch.

Upgrades

Changes that may occur or be required during an upgrade.

  • Installation and Deployment

    • The JDK has been upgraded to 23.0.1

New features and improvements

  • UI Changes

    • A custom dialog now helps users save their widget changes on the Dashboard page before continuing on the Search page.

  • Configuration

  • Dashboards and Widgets

    • The Bar Chart widget can now be configured in the style panel with a horizontal or vertical orientation.

  • Functions

    • The new query functions crypto:sha1() and crypto:sha256() have been added. These functions compute a cryptographic SHA-hashing of the given fields and output a hex string as the result.

Fixed in this release

  • Storage

    • Minisegments would not be prioritized correctly when fetching them from bucket storage. This issue has now been fixed.

  • Dashboards and Widgets

    • Long values rendered in the Single Value widget would overflow the widget container. This issue has now been fixed.

  • Queries

    • The query scheduler has been fixed for an issue that could cause queries to get stuck in rare cases.

Improvement

  • UI Changes

    • Improving the information messages that are displayed in the query editor when errors with lookup files used in queries occur.

  • Queries

    • Worker query prioritization is improved in specific cases where a query starts off highly resource-consuming but becomes more efficient as it progresses. In such cases, the scheduler could severely penalize the query, leading to it being unfairly deprioritized.
