Field fixes
Ticket No. Description Severity
57207 Problem: Namespace custom labels missing after restoration for Backup & Restore service.
Fix: A Flash document is published Missing namespace custom labels during restore.
Normal
56437 Problem: Backup stalls and fails after an hour with "Dataupload" is in accepted status during the node-agent starting.
Fix: The nil pointer exception that causes node-agent pod restarts and backup failures is addressed. An issue with LoadAffinity is resolved, where only the first element is passed to node-agent datamover managers; this is fixed by consolidating multiple NodeSelector statements into a single NodeSelector. A change is made to the Transfer Manager (TM) to reduce delays in the UI when handling multiple DataUploads/DataDownloads, by sending updates to the hub every 15 seconds or when there is a 5% progress update, rather than sending every update via a Kafka message.
Major
55575 Problem: Backup & Restore service download resource list generates a 0 Kb file.
Fix: This issue is fixed in version 2.11, where the transaction manager updated to handle large messages over 1MB, adhering to Kafka's message size limit.
Normal
53144 Problem: CP4D restore failure - DataDownload exception, data path restore failed.
Fix: Fixed this issue with merging updated node-agent-config configuration values resulting in the old data mover resource values.
Major
47643 Problem: Unwanted events for pulling images for Fusion
Fix: Unwanted secret for IBM Fusion namespace is removed.
