2.1.1.1. Technical changes

Migration Toolkit for Containers (MTC) 1.8.5 has the following technical changes:

Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS)

FIPS is a set of computer security standards developed by the United States federal government in accordance with the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA).

Starting with version 1.8.5, MTC is designed for FIPS compliance.

2.1.1.2. Resolved issues

For more information, see the list of MTC 1.8.5 resolved issues in Jira.

2.1.1.3. Known issues

MTC 1.8.5 has the following known issues:

The associated SCC for service account cannot be migrated in OpenShift Container Platform 4.12

The associated Security Context Constraints (SCCs) for service accounts in OpenShift Container Platform 4.12 cannot be migrated. This issue is planned to be resolved in a future release of MTC. (MIG-1454)

MTC does not patch statefulset.spec.volumeClaimTemplates[].spec.storageClassName on storage class conversion

While running a Storage Class conversion for a StatefulSet application, MTC updates the persistent volume claims (PVC) references in .spec.volumeClaimTemplates[].metadata.name to use the migrated PVC names. MTC does not update spec.volumeClaimTemplates[].spec.storageClassName, which causes the application to scale up. Additionally, new replicas consume PVCs created under the old Storage Class instead of the migrated Storage Class. (MIG-1660)

Performing a StorageClass conversion triggers the scale-down of all applications in the namespace

When running a StorageClass conversion on more than one application, MTC scales down all the applications in the cutover phase, including those not involved in the migration. (MIG-1661)

MigPlan cannot be edited to have the same target namespace as the source cluster after it is changed

After changing the target namespace to something different from the source namespace while creating a MigPlan in the MTC UI, you cannot edit the MigPlan again to make the target namespace the same as the source namespace. (MIG-1600)

Migrated builder pod fails to push to the image registry

When migrating an application that includes BuildConfig from the source to the target cluster, the builder pod encounters an error, failing to push the image to the image registry. (BZ#2234781)

Conflict condition clears briefly after it is displayed

When creating a new state migration plan that results in a conflict error, the error is cleared shortly after it is displayed. (BZ#2144299)

PvCapacityAdjustmentRequired warning not displayed after setting pv_resizing_threshold

The PvCapacityAdjustmentRequired warning does not appear in the migration plan after the pv_resizing_threshold is adjusted. (BZ#2270160)

For a complete list of all known issues, see the list of MTC 1.8.5 known issues in Jira.

MTC 1.8.4 has the following major resolved issues:

Ansible Operator is broken when OpenShift Virtualization is installed

There is a bug in the python3-openshift package that installing OpenShift Virtualization exposes, with an exception, ValueError: too many values to unpack, returned during the task. Earlier versions of MTC are impacted, while MTC 1.8.4 has implemented a workaround. Updating to MTC 1.8.4 means you are no longer affected by this issue. (OCPBUGS-38116)

UI stuck at Namespaces while creating a migration plan

When trying to create a migration plan from the MTC UI, the migration plan wizard becomes stuck at the Namespaces step. This issue has been resolved in MTC 1.8.4. (MIG-1597)

Migration fails with error of no matches for kind Virtual machine in version kubevirt/v1

During the migration of an application, all the necessary steps, including the backup, DVM, and restore, are successfully completed. However, the migration is marked as unsuccessful with the error message no matches for kind Virtual machine in version kubevirt/v1. (MIG-1594)

Direct Volume Migration fails when migrating to a namespace different from the source namespace

On performing a migration from source cluster to target cluster, with the target namespace different from the source namespace, the DVM fails. (MIG-1592)

Direct Image Migration does not respect label selector on migplan

When using Direct Image Migration (DIM), if a label selector is set on the migration plan, DIM does not respect it and attempts to migrate all imagestreams in the namespace. (MIG-1533)

2.1.2.3. Known issues

MTC 1.8.4 has the following known issues:

The associated SCC for service account cannot be migrated in OpenShift Container Platform 4.12

The associated Security Context Constraints (SCCs) for service accounts in OpenShift Container Platform 4.12 cannot be migrated. This issue is planned to be resolved in a future release of MTC. (MIG-1454).

Rsync pod fails to start causing the DVM phase to fail

The DVM phase fails due to the Rsync pod failing to start, because of a permission issue.

(BZ#2231403)

Migrated builder pod fails to push to image registry

When migrating an application including BuildConfig from source to target cluster, the builder pod results in error, failing to push the image to the image registry.

(BZ#2234781)

Conflict condition gets cleared briefly after it is created

When creating a new state migration plan that results in a conflict error, that error is cleared shorty after it is displayed.

(BZ#2144299)

PvCapacityAdjustmentRequired Warning Not Displayed After Setting pv_resizing_threshold

The PvCapacityAdjustmentRequired warning fails to appear in the migration plan after the pv_resizing_threshold is adjusted.

2.2.1. Migration Toolkit for Containers 1.7.17 release notes

Migration Toolkit for Containers (MTC) 1.7.17 is a Container Grade Only (CGO) release, released to refresh the health grades of the containers, with no changes to any code in the product itself compared to that of MTC 1.7.16.

2.2.2. Migration Toolkit for Containers 1.7.16 release notes

2.2.2.1. Resolved issues

This release has the following resolved issues:

CVE-2023-45290: Golang: net/http: Memory exhaustion in the Request.ParseMultipartForm method

A flaw was found in the net/http Golang standard library package, which impacts earlier versions of MTC. When parsing a multipart form, either explicitly with Request.ParseMultipartForm or implicitly with Request.FormValue, Request.PostFormValue, or Request.FormFile methods, limits on the total size of the parsed form are not applied to the memory consumed while reading a single form line. This permits a maliciously crafted input containing long lines to cause the allocation of arbitrarily large amounts of memory, potentially leading to memory exhaustion.

To resolve this issue, upgrade to MTC 1.7.16.

For more details, see CVE-2023-45290

CVE-2024-24783: Golang: crypto/x509: Verify panics on certificates with an unknown public key algorithm

A flaw was found in the crypto/x509 Golang standard library package, which impacts earlier versions of MTC. Verifying a certificate chain that contains a certificate with an unknown public key algorithm causes Certificate.Verify to panic. This affects all crypto/tls clients and servers that set Config.ClientAuth to VerifyClientCertIfGiven or RequireAndVerifyClientCert. The default behavior is for TLS servers to not verify client certificates.

To resolve this issue, upgrade to MTC 1.7.16.

For more details, see CVE-2024-24783.

CVE-2024-24784: Golang: net/mail: Comments in display names are incorrectly handled

A flaw was found in the net/mail Golang standard library package, which impacts earlier versions of MTC. The ParseAddressList function incorrectly handles comments, text in parentheses, and display names. As this is a misalignment with conforming address parsers, it can result in different trust decisions being made by programs using different parsers.

To resolve this issue, upgrade to MTC 1.7.16.

For more details, see CVE-2024-24784.

CVE-2024-24785: Golang: html/template: Errors returned from MarshalJSON methods may break template escaping

A flaw was found in the html/template Golang standard library package, which impacts earlier versions of MTC. If errors returned from MarshalJSON methods contain user-controlled data, they could be used to break the contextual auto-escaping behavior of the html/template package, allowing subsequent actions to inject unexpected content into templates.

To resolve this issue, upgrade to MTC 1.7.16.

For more details, see CVE-2024-24785.

CVE-2024-29180: webpack-dev-middleware: Lack of URL validation may lead to file leak

A flaw was found in the webpack-dev-middleware package, which impacts earlier versions of MTC. This flaw fails to validate the supplied URL address sufficiently before returning local files, which could allow an attacker to craft URLs to return arbitrary local files from the developer’s machine.

To resolve this issue, upgrade to MTC 1.7.16.

For more details, see CVE-2024-29180.

CVE-2024-30255: envoy: HTTP/2 CPU exhaustion due to CONTINUATION frame flood

A flaw was found in how the envoy proxy implements the HTTP/2 codec, which impacts earlier versions of MTC. There are insufficient limitations placed on the number of CONTINUATION frames that can be sent within a single stream, even after exceeding the header map limits of envoy. This flaw could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to send packets to vulnerable servers. These packets could consume compute resources and cause a denial of service (DoS).

To resolve this issue, upgrade to MTC 1.7.16.

For more details, see CVE-2024-30255.

2.2.2.2. Known issues

This release has the following known issues:

Direct Volume Migration is failing as the Rsync pod on the source cluster goes into an Error state

On migrating any application with a Persistent Volume Claim (PVC), the Stage migration operation succeeds with warnings, but the Direct Volume Migration (DVM) fails with the rsync pod on the source namespace moving into an error state. (BZ#2256141)

The conflict condition is briefly cleared after it is created

When creating a new state migration plan that returns a conflict error message, the error message is cleared very shortly after it is displayed. (BZ#2144299)

Migration fails when there are multiple Volume Snapshot Locations of different provider types configured in a cluster

When there are multiple Volume Snapshot Locations (VSLs) in a cluster with different provider types, but you have not set any of them as the default VSL, Velero results in a validation error that causes migration operations to fail. (BZ#2180565)

2.2.3. Migration Toolkit for Containers 1.7.15 release notes

2.2.3.1. Resolved issues

This release has the following resolved issues:

CVE-2024-24786: A flaw was found in Golang’s protobuf module, where the unmarshal function can enter an infinite loop

A flaw was found in the protojson.Unmarshal function that could cause the function to enter an infinite loop when unmarshaling certain forms of invalid JSON messages. This condition could occur when unmarshaling into a message that contained a google.protobuf.Any value or when the UnmarshalOptions.DiscardUnknown option was set in a JSON-formatted message.

To resolve this issue, upgrade to MTC 1.7.15.

For more details, see (CVE-2024-24786).

CVE-2024-28180: jose-go improper handling of highly compressed data

A vulnerability was found in Jose due to improper handling of highly compressed data. An attacker could send a JSON Web Encryption (JWE) encrypted message that contained compressed data that used large amounts of memory and CPU when decompressed by the Decrypt or DecryptMulti functions. 

To resolve this issue, upgrade to MTC 1.7.15.

For more details, see (CVE-2024-28180).

2.2.3.2. Known issues

CVE-2023-39318 CVE-2023-39319 CVE-2023-39321: various flaws

  • (CVE-2023-39318): A flaw was discovered in Golang, utilized by MTC. The html/template package did not properly handle HTML-like "" comment tokens, or the hashbang "#!" comment tokens, in <script> contexts. This flaw could cause the template parser to improperly interpret the contents of <script> contexts, causing actions to be improperly escaped.

  • (CVE-2023-39319): A flaw was discovered in Golang, utilized by MTC. The html/template package did not apply the proper rules for handling occurrences of "<script", "<!--", and "</script" within JavaScript literals in <script> contexts. This could cause the template parser to improperly consider script contexts to be terminated early, causing actions to be improperly escaped. 

  • (CVE-2023-39321): A flaw was discovered in Golang, utilized by MTC. Processing an incomplete post-handshake message for a QUIC connection could cause a panic.

  • (CVE-2023-3932): A flaw was discovered in Golang, utilized by MTC. Connections using the QUIC transport protocol did not set an upper bound on the amount of data buffered when reading post-handshake messages, allowing a malicious QUIC connection to cause unbounded memory growth. 

To resolve these issues, upgrade to MTC 1.7.14.

For more details, see (CVE-2023-39318), (CVE-2023-39319), and (CVE-2023-39321).

Cloud propagation phase in migration controller is not functioning due to missing labels on Velero pods

The Cloud propagation phase in the migration controller is not functioning due to missing labels on Velero pods. The EnsureCloudSecretPropagated phase in the migration controller waits until replication repository secrets are propagated on both sides. As this label is missing on Velero pods, the phase is not functioning as expected. (BZ#2088026)

Default CPU requests on Velero/Restic are too demanding when making scheduling fail in certain environments

Default CPU requests on Velero/Restic are too demanding when making scheduling fail in certain environments. Default CPU requests for Velero and Restic Pods are set to 500m. These values are high. The resources can be configured in DPA using the podConfig field for Velero and Restic. Migration operator should set CPU requests to a lower value, such as 100m, so that Velero and Restic pods can be scheduled in resource constrained environments Migration Toolkit for Containers (MTC) often operates in. (BZ#2088022)

Warning is displayed on persistentVolumes page after editing storage class conversion plan

A warning is displayed on the persistentVolumes page after editing the storage class conversion plan. When editing the existing migration plan, a warning is displayed on the UI At least one PVC must be selected for Storage Class Conversion. (BZ#2079549)

2.2.18. Migration Toolkit for Containers 1.7.0 release notes

2.2.18.1. New features and enhancements

This release has the following new features and enhancements:

  • The Migration Toolkit for Containers (MTC) Operator now depends upon the OpenShift API for Data Protection (OADP) Operator. When you install the MTC Operator, the Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM) automatically installs the OADP Operator in the same namespace.
  • You can migrate from a source cluster that is behind a firewall to a cloud-based destination cluster by establishing a network tunnel between the two clusters by using the crane tunnel-api command.
  • Converting storage classes in the MTC web console: You can convert the storage class of a persistent volume (PV) by migrating it within the same cluster.

2.2.18.2. Known issues

This release has the following known issues:

  • MigPlan custom resource does not display a warning when an AWS gp2 PVC has no available space. (BZ#1963927)
  • Direct and indirect data transfers do not work if the destination storage is a PV that is dynamically provisioned by the AWS Elastic File System (EFS). This is due to limitations of the AWS EFS Container Storage Interface (CSI) driver. (BZ#2085097)
  • Block storage for IBM Cloud must be in the same availability zone. See the IBM FAQ for block storage for virtual private cloud.
  • MTC 1.7.6 cannot migrate cron jobs from source clusters that support v1beta1 cron jobs to clusters of OpenShift Container Platform 4.12 and later, which do not support v1beta1 cron jobs. (BZ#2149119)

2.3. Migration Toolkit for Containers 1.6 release notes

The release notes for Migration Toolkit for Containers (MTC) describe new features and enhancements, deprecated features, and known issues.

The MTC enables you to migrate application workloads between OpenShift Container Platform clusters at the granularity of a namespace.

You can migrate from OpenShift Container Platform 3 to 4.17 and between OpenShift Container Platform 4 clusters.

MTC provides a web console and an API, based on Kubernetes custom resources, to help you control the migration and minimize application downtime.

For information on the support policy for MTC, see OpenShift Application and Cluster Migration Solutions, part of the Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform Life Cycle Policy.

2.3.1. Migration Toolkit for Containers 1.6 release notes

2.3.1.1. New features and enhancements

This release has the following new features and enhancements:

  • State migration: You can perform repeatable, state-only migrations by selecting specific persistent volume claims (PVCs).
  • "New operator version available" notification: The Clusters page of the MTC web console displays a notification when a new Migration Toolkit for Containers Operator is available.

2.3.1.2. Deprecated features

The following features are deprecated:

  • MTC version 1.4 is no longer supported.

2.3.1.3. Known issues

This release has the following known issues:

  • On OpenShift Container Platform 3.10, the MigrationController pod takes too long to restart. The Bugzilla report contains a workaround. (BZ#1986796)
  • Stage pods fail during direct volume migration from a classic OpenShift Container Platform source cluster on IBM Cloud. The IBM block storage plugin does not allow the same volume to be mounted on multiple pods of the same node. As a result, the PVCs cannot be mounted on the Rsync pods and on the application pods simultaneously. To resolve this issue, stop the application pods before migration. (BZ#1887526)
  • MigPlan custom resource does not display a warning when an AWS gp2 PVC has no available space. (BZ#1963927)
  • Block storage for IBM Cloud must be in the same availability zone. See the IBM FAQ for block storage for virtual private cloud.

2.4.1. Migration Toolkit for Containers 1.5 release notes

2.4.1.1. New features and enhancements

This release has the following new features and enhancements:

  • The Migration resource tree on the Migration details page of the web console has been enhanced with additional resources, Kubernetes events, and live status information for monitoring and debugging migrations.
  • The web console can support hundreds of migration plans.
  • A source namespace can be mapped to a different target namespace in a migration plan. Previously, the source namespace was mapped to a target namespace with the same name.
  • Hook phases with status information are displayed in the web console during a migration.
  • The number of Rsync retry attempts is displayed in the web console during direct volume migration.
  • Persistent volume (PV) resizing can be enabled for direct volume migration to ensure that the target cluster does not run out of disk space.
  • The threshold that triggers PV resizing is configurable. Previously, PV resizing occurred when the disk usage exceeded 97%.
  • Velero has been updated to version 1.6, which provides numerous fixes and enhancements.
  • Cached Kubernetes clients can be enabled to provide improved performance.

2.4.1.2. Deprecated features

The following features are deprecated:

  • MTC versions 1.2 and 1.3 are no longer supported.
  • The procedure for updating deprecated APIs has been removed from the troubleshooting section of the documentation because the oc convert command is deprecated.

2.4.1.3. Known issues

This release has the following known issues:

  • Microsoft Azure storage is unavailable if you create more than 400 migration plans. The MigStorage custom resource displays the following message: The request is being throttled as the limit has been reached for operation type. (BZ#1977226)
  • If a migration fails, the migration plan does not retain custom persistent volume (PV) settings for quiesced pods. You must manually roll back the migration, delete the migration plan, and create a new migration plan with your PV settings. (BZ#1784899)
  • PV resizing does not work as expected for AWS gp2 storage unless the pv_resizing_threshold is 42% or greater. (BZ#1973148)
  • PV resizing does not work with OpenShift Container Platform 3.7 and 3.9 source clusters in the following scenarios:

    • The application was installed after MTC was installed.
    • An application pod was rescheduled on a different node after MTC was installed.

      OpenShift Container Platform 3.7 and 3.9 do not support the Mount Propagation feature that enables Velero to mount PVs automatically in the Restic pod. The MigAnalytic custom resource (CR) fails to collect PV data from the Restic pod and reports the resources as 0. The MigPlan CR displays a status similar to the following:

      Example output

      status:
        conditions:
        - category: Warn
          lastTransitionTime: 2021-07-15T04:11:44Z
          message: Failed gathering extended PV usage information for PVs [nginx-logs nginx-html], please see MigAnalytic openshift-migration/ocp-24706-basicvolmig-migplan-1626319591-szwd6 for details
          reason: FailedRunningDf
          status: "True"
          type: ExtendedPVAnalysisFailed

      To enable PV resizing, you can manually restart the Restic daemonset on the source cluster or restart the Restic pods on the same nodes as the application. If you do not restart Restic, you can run the direct volume migration without PV resizing. (BZ#1982729)

2.4.1.4. Technical changes

This release has the following technical changes:

  • The legacy Migration Toolkit for Containers Operator version 1.5.1 is installed manually on OpenShift Container Platform versions 3.7 to 4.5.
  • The Migration Toolkit for Containers Operator version 1.5.1 is installed on OpenShift Container Platform versions 4.6 and later by using the Operator Lifecycle Manager.
