RHBA-2019:2820 - OpenShift Container Platform 4.1.17 bug fix update

Synopsis

OpenShift Container Platform 4.1.17 bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory None

Topic

Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform release 4.1.17 is now available with updates to packages and images that fix several bugs.

Description

Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform is Red Hat's cloud computing Kubernetes application platform solution designed for on-premise or private cloud deployments.

This advisory contains the container images for Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.1.17. See the following advisory for the RPM packages for this release:

https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2019:2819

This release fixes the following bugs:

The cluster-version operator's defaulting logic could outrace the cluster-bootstrap logic and inject unintended ClusterVersion content.The cluster-version operator has been updated to no longer supply a default ClusterVersion during the bootstrap phase. Existing clusters affected by the race could be manually recovered by updating their in-cluster ClusterVersion to use your desired channel and clusterID. (BZ#1708697)
Cause: Logging changed container logs to use log level unknown because there was no way to accurately determine container log levels for all types of container logs. The remote syslog plugin broke because it does not know how to handle log level unknown. The syslog plugin has now been changed to use the configured default log level of info when it sees level unknown. (BZ#1741590)

Space precludes documenting all of the container images in this advisory. See the following Release Notes documentation, which will be updated shortly for this release, for details about these changes:
