Bug fixes and updates.
Deprecation
Items that have been deprecated and may be removed in a future release.
The
color
field on theRole
type has been marked as deprecated (will be removed in version 1.195).The
storage
task of the GraphQLNodeTaskEnum
is deprecated and scheduled to be removed in version 1.185. This affects the following items:
The
supportedTasks
field of theClusterNode
type.The
assignedTasks
field of theClusterNode
type.The
unassignedTasks
field of theClusterNode
type.The assignTasks() mutation.
The unassignTasks() mutation
The
INITIAL_DISABLED_NODE_TASKS
configuration variable.LogScale is deprecating free-text searches that occur after the first aggregate function in a query. These searches likely did not and will not work as expected. Starting with version 1.189.0, this functionality will no longer be available. A free-text search after the first aggregate function refers to any text filter that is not specific to a field and appears after the query's first aggregate function. For example, this syntax is deprecated:
logscale Syntax"Lorem ipsum dolor" | tail(200) | "sit amet, consectetur"
Some uses of the
wildcard()
function, particularly those that do not specify afield
argument are also free-text-searches and therefore are deprecated as well. Regex literals that are not particular to a field, for example/(abra|kadabra)/
are also free-text-searches and are thus also deprecated after the first aggregate function.To work around this issue, you can:
Move the free-text search in front of the first aggregate function.
Search specifically in the @rawstring field.
If you know the field that contains the value you're searching for, it's best to search that particular field. The field may have been added by either the log shipper or the parser, and the information might not appear in the @rawstring field.
Free-text searches before the first aggregate function continue to work as expected since they are not deprecated. Field-specific text searches work as expected as well: for example,
myField=/(abra|kadabra)/
continue to work also after the first aggregate function.The use of the event functions
eventInternals()
,eventFieldCount()
, andeventSize()
after the first aggregate function is deprecated. For example:Invalid Example for Demonstration - DO NOT USElogscaleeventSize() | tail(200) | eventInternals()
Usage of these functions after the first aggregate function is deprecated because they work on the original events, which are not available after the first aggregate function.
Using these functions after the first aggregate function will be made unavailable in version 1.189.0 and onwards.
These functions will continue to work before the first aggregate function, for example:
logscaleeventSize() | tail(200)
The setConsideredAliveUntil and
setConsideredAliveFor
GraphQL mutations are deprecated and will be removed in 1.195.The
lastScheduledSearch
field from theScheduledSearch
datatype is now deprecated and planned for removal in LogScale version 1.202. The newlastExecuted
andlastTriggered
fields have been added to theScheduledSearch
datatype to replacelastScheduledSearch
.The
EXTRA_KAFKA_CONFIGS_FILE
configuration variable has been deprecated and planned to be removed no earlier than version 1.225.0. For more information, see RN Issue.
New features and improvements
Configuration
Enabling
idempotence
for the Kafka producer:Set
enable.idempotence=true
for the global producer. This can't be overridden and is required to avoid the risk of message reordering in Kafka.Set
enable.idempotence=true
for the ingest queue producer. This can be overridden using theKAFKA_INGEST_QUEUE_PRODUCER_
configuration variable, by adding the_ENABLE_IDEMPOTENCE
suffix as the Kafka producer configuration option.
While enabling the above configuration is not required for LogScale to work, it is however advisable in order to prevent reordering of messages and to reduce the frequency of duplicates in the ingest queue.
Functions
The
SortNewDatastructure
feature flag is now enabled by default in Self-Hosted environments.
Fixed in this release
Falcon Data Replicator
A configuration issue prevented proper FDR publishing to Global Database. This issue affected job scheduling and might cause incorrect node allocation for FDR ingestion (for example, ingestion scheduled on more or fewer nodes than specified).
API
Query Heartbeats in the Pagination API have been fixed as they would not keep the query alive.
Queries
ClusterHostAliveStats
in field class could drop logs in case of liveness changes occurring within one second. This issue has been fixed to now include changes that occur less than one second apart.Transferring tables between cluster nodes (either defined using
defineTable()
or from Lookup Files) could lead to thread starvation and node crashes. This issue has now been fixed.
Improvement
Storage
Made few minor adjustments to the global framework to avoid the possibility of bugs. These changes are not expected to impact the current behavior.
Packages
Improving error messages when installing a YAML template file (individually or through a package), where
$schema
in the file is misconfigured.
