AKS Engine - Units of Kubernetes on Azure Stack Hub 0.80.3
Self-managed Kubernetes cluster provisioning on Azure
What's new in 0.80.3
Attention!
Notable changes in this release:
- The chrony daemon on a Linux node may fail to restart with error message: "Could not open /dev/ptp_hyperv: No such file or directory".
The workaround for this issue is to manually reboot the affected Linux nodes.
This operation will regenerate the /dev/ptp_hyperv symlink and allow the chrony daemon to restart successfully.
- The control-plane nodes' taint has been changed from node-role.kubernetes.io/master to node-role.kubernetes.io/control-plane, requiring users to update tolerations in their applications to schedule pods on these nodes. Example:
tolerations:
- key: node-role.kubernetes.io/control-plane
operator: "Exists"
effect: NoSchedule
- Use the new AzureDisk CSI Driver v1.29.1 for k8s v1.28+. Use AzureDisk CSI Driver v1.28.3 for k8s v1.27. Use AzureDisk CSI Driver v1.26.5 for k8s v1.26.
- See Azure Disk CSI Driver: Version Mapping for more details.
