Chapter 5. 4.2 Release Notes
5.1. New Features
This following major enhancements have been introduced in Red Hat Update Infrastructure 4.2.
- Importing package group metadata to a custom repository is now supported
-
With this update, data from a
comps
file can now be imported and included into the metadata for a custom repository. For more information, see Importing package group metadata to a custom repository. - Faster package uploads
-
Previously,
rhui-manager
uploaded a single package at a time and republished the custom repository after each upload. With this update,rhui-manager
creates a temporary repository instead, which contains all the packages that have to be uploaded. Additionally,rhui-manager
also creates the repodata for this temporary repository. To upload the packages to the custom repository,rhui-manager
synchronizes the custom repository with the temporary one. As a result, package uploads are now significantly faster. - User supplied HAProxy configuration file is now supported
-
With this update, you can specify a custom template for an HAProxy configuration when adding an HAProxy load balancer to your RHUI instance. If you do not specify a custom file, the default template is used. The default template is stored in the
/usr/share/rhui-tools/templates/haproxy.cfg
file. - New
rhui-manager
aliases -
With this update, aliases for the
--username
and--password
options for therhui-manager
command are now supported in the command-line interface. You can now use the short forms-u
and-p
respectively. gunicorn
services now restart automatically-
With this update,
gunicorn
services restart automatically if they exit unexpectedly. As a result, CDS nodes can now recover from situations where these services stop unexpectedly, for example, when the system runs out of memory. - Upgraded
rhui-manager
utility With this update, the following new option and flag are now available in
rhui-manager
:-
repo add_by_file
option to add repositories using a YAML input file. For more information, see Adding a new Red Hat content repository using an input file. -
--sync_now
flag to sync any repositories that are added. This flag is now available with therhui-manager repo add_by_repo
andrhui-manager repo add_by_file
commands.

5.2. Bug Fixes
The following bugs have been fixed in Red Hat Update Infrastructure 4.2 that have a significant impact on users.
- Migrating to a different remote file server now works as expected
-
Previously, when
rhui-installer
was rerun with a remote file server, which was different from the one that was originally used,rhui-installer
failed to unmount the original file server. Additionally,rhui-installer
also failed to remove the record of the file server from the/etc/fstab
file. Consequently, migrating to another remote file server failed. With this update,rhui-installer
successfully unmounts the remote file server and also removes its record. As a result, migrating to a different remote file server now works as expected.
5.3. Known Issues
This part describes known issues in Red Hat Update Infrastructure 4.2.
- Repository synchronization tasks fail when updating Red Hat Update Infrastructure
When you update RHUI, Pulp worker processes are shut down and restarted once the update is complete. Consequently, any repository synchronization tasks that are scheduled during the update might be aborted with the following error:
Aborted during worker shutdown
As a workaround, aborted repository synchronization tasks are automatically rerun at the next available time slot. The default is 6 hours. Alternatively, you can manually synchronize repositories after the update is complete.
rhui-installer
ignores custom RHUI CA when updating to a newer version of RHUIWhen updating from RHUI version 4.1.0 or older,
rhui-installer
ignores the existing custom RHUI CA and generates a new RHUI CA regardless of the parameter value set in theanswer.yml
file. Consequently, RHUI fails to recognize clients which use the older RHUI CA. To work around this problem, specify the custom RHUI CA when running therhui-installer --rerun
command.# rhui-installer --rerun --user-supplied-rhui-ca-crt <custom_RHUI_CA.crt> --user-supplied-rhui-ca-key <custom_RHUI_CA_key>

rhui-manager repo unused
command fails to list newly added repositoriesCurrently, the
rhui-manager repo unused
command displays all the repositories that are listed in the entitlement certificate but are not used by RHUI. However, when new repositories are added to the certificate, they might not be immediately available to the RHUA node due to a previously active denylist. Consequently, they are not displayed when you run the command to list the unused repositories. To work around this problem, you must remove the repository cache. You can do so by running the following command:# rm -f /var/cache/rhui/*
