Shield v8.5.0 Release Notes
Release Date: 2019-09-13 // over 4 years ago-
๐ Improvements
The
shield status
command is twice as pretty and three times
as useful.๐ Cloud Storage detail pages in the web interface now show a
timeline similar to the one shown for Data Systems, so that
SHIELD operators have an easier time of troubleshooting failing
๐ง storage configurations.๐ฒ The SHIELD CLI now displays task+log data for the last
โ test-store task of a given store (forshield store X
and
shield global-store Y
), to assist in troubleshooting failing
๐ง storage configurations.๐ Operators now have a web interface and some CLI commands for
inspecting the state of SHIELD Data Fixups, and re-running them
(if / when necessary).๐ The
mongo
target plugin can now have options applied
โช individually to justmongodump
ormongorestore
.Passwords and RSA private keys are now properly obscured in
๐ the web interface detail pages for both systems and cloud
๐ storage. People without rights to see such credentials will
๐ still see the "REDACTED" string instead; but people with the
๐ required privilege will instead see the blurred-out obscured
text that they can hover over to reveal.The
shield tasks
command can now filter down to only tasks
that involve a particular tenant or global cloud storage system.๐ Bug Fixes
Data Fixups will now be properly skipped if they've already been
applied. Additionally, names / dates / summaries will be
updated every time the SHIELD Core boots up, to catch typos
and mispellings there.๐ The Data System detail page in the web interface no longer has a
๐ race condition between the start of an AJAX call for the plugin
๐ง configuration details and ashield:navigate
away from the
page. Other such race conditions involving AJAX should now also
๐ be fixed.Switching between tenants (with differing levels of access) now
properly re-renders the sidebar to show your new privileges.๐ท The
shield job X
command now populates the "Status" and
"Agent" fields, using data in the API responses.
