Release Notes 1.6.0

Changes in Release 1.6.0

This release has major usability changes to clearly delineate the following use cases:

  • A project that contains a WDT model
  • A project that does not have a model but uses an “external image” that contains a model
  • A project with no model

When actions are not relevant to the use case, action buttons and Go menu items are hidden. When the project does not contain a model, the Model page is disabled. When the project is using an external image that contains a model, the user is allowed to specify the clusters, variable overrides, and secrets from this external model.

Major New Features

None

Other Changes

  • #250 - Changed domain spec default auxiliary image locations to align with those on the image page. This allows the user to switch back-and-forth between creating and using an auxiliary image without modifying location field values.
  • #251 - Added Inspect Image button to allow users to locate the WDT Model and Install Home locations in an external image.
  • #253 - Added support for SAML2 Data Initialization files to the Model Archive Editor.
  • #254, #255, #256, #258, #260, #265, #267 - Added support for WebLogic Kubernetes Operator 4.1.0 domain creation images.
  • #257 - Changed the action buttons and Go menu items to dynamically show/hide themselves based on the use case selected.
  • #259 - Added the ability to set domain-wide environment variables in the WebLogic Kubernetes Operator domain spec.
  • #268 - Reorganized the Secrets table to better support any extra secrets required by the model.
  • #270 - Added a warning for Verrazzano users using OKE Native Pod Networking.
  • #280 - Enhanced the Verrazzano Application page’s Add Components dialog to allow multiple components to be selected at a time.

Bug Fixes

  • #261 - Fixed a bug with the Model Archive Editor that was preventing adding name-segregated entries from working correctly.
  • #262 - Fixed a bug related to getting the WebLogic Kubernetes Operator version when the logs were too large.
  • #264 - Fixed a bug that caused the Verrazzano installation to use the wrong Verrazzano Platform Operator URL in some cases.
  • #276 - Fixed a bug where the WebLogic Kubernetes Operator cluster resources were created after the domain resource, which resulted in a temporary error condition when the operator analyzed the domain. This fix results in the Code View showing the cluster resources before the domain resource.
  • #277 - Added a missing tooltip to the Verrazzano Application component’s Ingress Trait Rules table Update URLs button to clarify that it should only be used after the application status is complete.
  • #279 - Fixed a bug that was causing the title of the Update URLs error dialog box to display the i18n key instead of the text.

Known Issues

  • On Linux, the open and save dialogs open behind the main application window. This is due to Electron bug 32857.
  • When deploying a Verrazzano application, the Get Application Status button only checks the status of the project’s Verrazzano component containing the WebLogic domain specification.
  • Verrazzano installation does not support a multicluster installation.
  • Verrazzano Application components Ingress Trait Rules table’s URL column does not properly account for multicluster applications. The Update URL button will only get information from the admin (i.e., local) cluster.
