Synopsis

OpenShift Container Platform 4.4.29 bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory None

Topic

Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform release 4.4.29 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 4.4.29. See the following advisory for the RPM packages for this release:

https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2020:4225

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:

https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.4/release_notes/ocp-4-4-release-notes.html

This update fixes the following bug among others:

  • Previously, when idling a service OpenShift SDN did not always delete a service and its endpoints in the correct order. As a result, sometimes the node port for a service was not deleted. When the service scaled up again, it was therefore unreachable. Now OpenShift SDN ensures that the node port is always deleted correctly. (BZ#1870304)
