UI Scroll Bug Fix for Chrome 80 (again). This release is purely a fix for the Humio UI. After upgrading to Chrome 80, people have been experiencing issues with scrolling in some of Humio's widgets. We did not find all the problems in the previous release.

Fixed in this release

  • Summary

    • Major changes: (see 1.7.0 release notes)

    • Fix more scrolling issues in Chrome 80 and above.

    • When a node was missing for an extended period of time the remaining nodes would create smaller segment files than they should.

    • Fix edge case errors in the regex engine. Some case insensitive searches for some Unicode characters were not supported correctly.

    • Fix scrolling issue in Chrome 80 on the Search Page.

    • Other changes: (see 1.7.1, 1.7.2, 1.7.3, and 1.7.4 release notes)

    • New feature for ephemeral servers: Let ZooKeeper assign the UUID that in turn assigns the node ID in the cluster. This is turned on by setting the config option ZOOKEEPER_URL_FOR_NODE_UUID to the set of ZooKeepers to use for this. The option ZOOKEEPER_PREFIX_FOR_NODE_UUID (default /humio_autouuid_) sets the prefix to allow rack awareness. Note: Do not turn this on for an existing cluster. Do not turn on if running older 1.7.x or 1.8.x builds.

    • Avoid calling fallocate on platforms that do not support this (for example, ZFS).

    • The ability to use Bucket Storage providers such as S3 and Google Cloud Storage for data storage.

    • Bucket storage download could report "download completed" also in case of problems fetching the file.

    • The new feature for ephemeral servers using ZooKeeper to UUID did not properly reconnect when the network failed.

    • Query Quotas limits on the amount of resources a given user can spend. Besides those, there are a number of UI improvements, back-end improvements, and Bug Fixes.
