Bug fixes

Fixed an issue where the coordinating tier wasn’t displayed in the architecture summary. Makes sure that the coordinating tier appears in the deployment architecture summary.

Fixed warning when logs and metrics are disabled. Prevents a false negative warning "Resource plans are inconsistent with deployment logging and metrics settings. Please reapply desired settings" that was shown after disabling deployment logs and metrics.

Removed 0 size option for warm and cold tiers. Removes the ability to set a 0 size on warm and cold tiers, if they are already sized when autoscaling is turned on. Removing warm and cold tiers is not supported as a safe operation.

Removed padding from Reset credentials modal. There was a minor UI bug that led to the elastic credentials showing without left padding in the Reset credentials modal.

More selective voting exclusions. Fixes a bug that added voting exclusions to Elasticsearch master nodes unnecessarily during forced restarts, sometimes leading to plan failures later.

Failure to delete nodes with voting exclusions. Cleans up any stray nodes with any lingering voting exclusions at the end of a plan change for 7.x Elasticsearch clusters to prevent future plans from failing.

Deleted trusted deployments still displayed. Fixes a UI bug in trust management, which resulted in a permanent loading state once a trusted deployment was deleted.

Removed a Workplace Search document thumbnail setting. For 7.10.x deployments, a setting was displayed that enabled a thumbnail for synced documents. This setting was not available at that version and is now available 7.11.x and newer.

Deprecations
