Chapter 13. 4.10 Release Notes
13.1. New Features
The following major enhancements have been introduced in Red Hat Update Infrastructure 4.10.
- Support for on-demand synchronization policy for content
It is now possible to set the synchronization of RPM, Source, and Debug repositories separately as either 'immediate' or 'on-demand'.
When 'on-demand' is selected, content is downloaded only when requested by the end client. This option is generally useful for source and debug content, as they are not widely used. As a result, the amount of content stored by RHUI can drop significantly.
You can configure this in
/etc/rhui/rhui-tools.conf. The mandatory option is to set thedefault_sync_policyto either 'immediate' or 'on-demand'. Optionally, you can override this setting by specifyingrpm_sync_policy,source_sync_policy, and/ordebug_sync_policy.
RHUI will need to download missing content on the fly, so a good connection to the Red Hat CDN is preferred to ensure a smooth client experience.
- Support for CDS in containers added as a TECHNICAL PREVIEW
-
It is now possible to add a CDS node that runs in a container. Use
rhui-manager cds add_container --helpfor more information. Further details will be available in the Administration Guide. - Change in nginx SSL certificate naming
- Previously, the CDS nginx SSL certificate name included the CDS DNS hostname, making it specific to each CDS node. A change has been made so that all CDS nodes now share a common SSL certificate with the same name.
