Shield v8.6.1 Release Notes

Release Date: 2019-12-04 // over 4 years ago
  • 🚀 This release chiefly introduces logic to existing and new database
    🚀 schema migrations to fix fallout from the 8.6.0 release, in which
    we mistakenly modified a historic migration to do something.

    ⬆️ All database upgrade paths, including pre-8.6.0 → present,
    🚀 (failing) 8.6.0 deployment → present, and brand new deployments,
    should all work now.

    👌 Improvements

    • 0️⃣ The fs plugin is now quieter by default, and will only turn on
      🌲 per-file debug logging if asked to do so via its own
      🔧 configuration. This should greatly speed up backup operations
      🔒 on busy SHIELDs, since it reduces the database lock contention.

    🐛 Bug Fixes

    🔧 The front-end configuration wizard now properly looks up
    🔌 plugin metadata for an agent. Previously, there was a
    Javascript variable shadowing bug that caused the front-end to
    📇 return any arbitrary plugin metadata as the "correct" one.

    Task cancelation had a n inverted boolean assertion on global
    🛠 tenant-iness that has been fixed.
