4.6.0 Beta 3

Crunchy Data announces the third beta release of the PostgreSQL Operator 4.6.0 on January 15, 2021.

Features

• Managed PostgreSQL system accounts and now have their credentials set and rotated with pgo update user by including the --set-system-account-password flag. Suggested by (@srinathganesh).

Changes

• pgBadger is now at 11.4
• Deleting a pgclusters.crunchydata.com custom resource will now properly delete a PostgreSQL cluster. If the pgclusters.crunchydata.com custom resource has the annotations keep-backups or keep-data, it will keep the backups or keep the PostgreSQL data directory respectively. Reported by Leo Khomenko (@lkhomenk).
• Allow for the --link-map attribute for a pgBackRest option, which can help with the restore of an existing cluster to a new cluster that adds an external WAL volume.
• Add an explicit size limit of 64Mi for the pgBadger ephemeral storage mount. Additionally, remove the ephemeral storage mount for the /recover mount point as that is not used. Reported by Pierre-Marie Petit (@pmpetit).

Fixes

• Ensure pgBouncer Secret is created when adding it to a standby cluster.
• Allow for Restart API server permission to be explicitly set. Reported by Aleksander Roszig (@AleksanderRoszig).
• The metrics stack installer is fixed to work in environments that may not have connectivity to the Internet ("air gapped"). Reported by (@eliranw).
• Apply Pod tolerations to pgBackRest Jobs and the pgo-rmdata Job.
• Pod tolerations can now accept empty effects.
• Ensure clusters that end with the name replica can list a primary service in pgo test.
• Ensure pgBouncer Secret is created for a standby cluster.
