Installer 2.5 Release Notes

Release 2.5.0

New Features and Improvements

  • IN-206 - Support for Offline ISO importing

Special Considerations

  • IN-261 - Installation of SSR software rpms on Linux distributions other than SSR-OS is no longer supported.

Issues Fixed

  • IN-238 - Installer does not provide feedback that a certificate has Expired. With this release the installer will now notify the user when their SSR release certificate has expired before attempting an upgrade/install operation.

  • IN-248 - Upgrade may hang on save-to-local: rebuilding package operation.

    Until the system is updated with the 2.5.0 installer, this issue can be mitigated by downloading the rpms needed for rolling back the system.

Caveats

  • IN-141 - Unsupported installed rpms result in Canceled upgrade Symptom: GUI presents a failure on upgrade with the following text provided:

    Error: transaction check vs depsolve:

    example:

    Cancelling upgrade of the second node on the router due to failure on this node:
    Failed to install 128T-manifest-0:4.1.0.1.el7:
    Error: transaction check vs depsolve:
    iptables = 1.4.21-28.el7 is needed by iptables-services-1.4.21-28.el7.x86_64

    To diagnose the problem, try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest. If this is a corrupted RPMDB, running rpm --rebuilddb may address the issue.

    Cause: Installed version of the RPM's coming from a later version of the Supported SSR OS version.

    Corrective Action: For the offending RPM that comes from a different version of the OS than is installed and running, perform either operation:

    1. Remove the offending rpm (in the example above "iptables-services-1.4.21-28.el7.x86_64" would be removed
    2. Setup a new repo pointing to the support SSR-OS vault version and downgrade the related rpms
