8.13.1. New Feature
General availability of Metropolitan disaster recovery (Metro-DR) solution
Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation Metro-DR feature with Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes 2.7 is General Available now.
The Regional-DR solution for both Blocks and Files is offered as Technology Preview and is subject to Technology Preview support limitations.
For more information, see the planning guide and Metro-DR solution for OpenShift Data Foundation guide.
8.13.2. Enhancements
Fixed read performance issues as found by COS
The read operations performance of Multicloud Object Gateway database is improved with this enhancement. To achieve this, certain regular expressions that are used by some of the queries that run against the database to serve the required data are pre-compiled. This saves time when running in real-time. (BZ#2149861)
Added missing annotation to CSV for disconnected environment support and RelatedImages field
The multicluster-orchestrator operator is listed under operators supporting disconnected mode installations with this enhancement. To display this operator, the disconnected mode support annotation is added to CSV as the user interface (UI) uses this annotation. (BZ#2166223)
8.13.3. Known issues
Cannot initiate failover of application from hub console
While working with an active/passive Hub Metro-DR setup, you might come across a rare scenario where the Ramen reconciler stops running after exceeding its allowed rate-limiting parameters. As reconciliation is specific to each workload, only that workload is impacted. In such an event, all disaster recovery orchestration activities related to that workload stop until the Ramen pod is restarted.
Workaround: Restart the Ramen pod on the Hub cluster.
$ oc delete pods <ramen-pod-name> -n openshift-operators
Cannot failover applications from console after the repeated Active hub zone failure
During multiple hub recoveries, in the event of a double failure such as when both the hub and managed clusters are going down, you may not be able to initiate a failover from the RHACM console if the last action was relocate.
Workaround: Use the CLI to set the DRPC.spec.action field to Failover.
$ oc edit drpc -n app-1 app-1-placement-1-drpc
spec action: Failover
Result: Failover of the workload will be initiated to the failover cluster.
