Upgrade notes

  • Agent cache retention policy parameter timeout is now an alias for the evict_after_creation parameter.

  • Trace log level is no longer formatted as level 3 but as TRACE

  • VSCode extension interacts with the Python extension to allow venv selection.

  • Extended web console functionality and made it the default front-end.

Upgrade notes

  • Compiling a project no longer installs modules on the fly. Run inmanta project install to install modules. For more details see setting up a project.

  • The compiler venv (.env) is no longer used. The compiler uses the active venv.

  • The supported PostgreSQL version is now 13

  • The supported Python version is now 3.9

  • This release requires RHEL 8

  • Jinja templates are required to be compatible with Jinja 3.

  • An update of the VSCode extension is required for compatibility with this release.

  • Clear your browser cache after upgrading to remove the old redirection rule. If the cache is not cleared the ‘/’ route will keep redirecting to ‘/dashboard’.

  • Ensure the database is backed up before executing an upgrade.

Deprecation notes

  • inmanta module install no longer installs all modules for a project. This has moved to inmanta project install.

  • inmanta compile no longer installs any modules. Run inmanta project install before compiling the first time.

  • “The compiler venv has been phased out. The compiler will now use the venv used to execute the inmanta compile command.” (Issue #3096)

  • Compiler no longer installs modules on the fly, inmanta project install needs to be run to install required modules

  • Clear your browser cache after upgrading to remove the old redirection rule. If the cache is not cleared the ‘/’ route will keep redirecting to ‘/dashboard’. (Issue #3497)

  • Project.load() no longer installs Project dependencies. Pass install=True for the old behavior.

  • NOTSET is no longer accepted as a log level by the agent’s context logger. It was not a valid log level before, but it was accepted by the agent.

  • After upgrading the Inmanta server, all virtual environments used by the compiler and the agents have to be removed. Use the following procedure to achive this:

    • Stop the Inmanta server

    • Remove all /var/lib/inmanta/server/environments/<environment-id>/.env directories

    • Remove all /var/lib/inmanta/<environment-id> directories

    • Start the Inmanta server again
