Elastic Cloud Enterprise 3.1.0

edit

The following changes are included in this release.

Features

edit

Enable beats monitoring in ECE. Enable transitioning deployment monitoring from internal collection to beats monitoring.

Add live "in-app" EOL notifications. Add notifications for deployments which are approaching, or have reached EOL status.

Enhancements

edit

Adapt user settings for 7.17 and 8.0. Follow up for allowed user overridable config changes for APM Server 7.17 and 8.0.

Accessibility fix: Add aria-label to the Remove contact button. Add screen reader label to the button for removing contacts.

Breaking down billing dimensions costs in the responses. Change the responses for the Costs Analysis APIs. In particular, the CostsOverview renames resources to capacity and it replaces the data_transfer_and_storage field with its equivalent breakdown into capacity, data_in data_out, data_internode, storage_bytes and snapshot_storage fields.

Add APM auto-create settings to cloud allow list. Allow xpack.apm.autocreateIndexPattern (for Kibana versions 7.6.0-7.16.0) and xpack.apm.autoCreateDataView (renamed for ≥ 8.0.0) to be configured for the APM UI in Kibana on Cloud deployments.

Update disable sandbox option for reporting. Kibana configuration option xpack.reporting.capture.browser.chromium.disableSandbox has been renamed to xpack.screenshotting.browser.chromium.disableSandbox in 8.0.

Make organization APIs public. Organization management APIs are now available in the Elasticsearch Service public API.

Bug fixes

edit

Use vault on the bucket_capacity_show command. Change the password source for the bucket_capacity_show command to be the vault.

Hide APM settings when in managed mode. Hide APM user settings when APM is in managed mode as user settings are not supported.

Disable logging and metrics warnings on downscaled topologies. Improve observability configuration check alerting reducing the number of false positives on detected wrong configurations.

Deprecations

edit

Remove obsolete proxy settings from internal models. The proxy settings APIs have been deprecated because these settings were no longer used. The API endpoints still exist, but will not update or return actual settings anymore. In addition, the Adminconsole no longer takes the expected_proxies_count setting into account when it determines the overall proxies health.

Comment out updating enable disk allocation setting. You can no longer disable disk-based shard allocation through the plan. If you need to do so, you can do it directly through the Elasticsearch cluster settings API.

Docs

edit

Update 6.8 upgrade documentation to indicate EOL. We’ve updated the Elastic Stack version 6.x upgrade instructions to indicate that version has reached the EOL date. If you are running this version, we recommend you to upgrade your deployment to a more current version of the Elastic stack.
