Features

  • The JDBC connection string for the Postgres database and a PgBouncer instance is now available in the User Secret using jdbc-uri and pgbouncer-jdbc-uri respectively.
  • Editing the password field of a User Secret now changes a password, instead of having to create a verifier.

Changes

  • PostGIS is now automatically enabled when using the crunchy-postgres-gis container.
  • The Downward API is mounted to the database containers.
  • pgnodemx can now be enabled and used without having to enable monitoring.
  • The description of the name field for an instance set now states that a name is only optional when a single instance set is defined.

Fixes

  • Fix issue when performing a restore with PostgreSQL 14. Specifically, if there are mismatched PostgreSQL configuration parameters, PGO will resume replay and let PostgreSQL crash so PGO can ultimately fix it, vs. the restore pausing indefinitely.
  • The pgBackRest Pod no longer automatically mounts the default Service Account. Reported by (@Shrivastava-Varsha).
  • The Jobs that move data between volumes now have the correct Security Context set.
  • The UBI 8 crunchy-upgrade container contains all recent PostgreSQL versions that can be upgraded.
  • Ensure controller references are used for all objects that need them, instead of owner references.
  • It is no longer necessary to have external WAL volumes enabled in order to upgrade a PGO v4 cluster to PGO v5 using the “Migrate From Backups” or “Migrate Using a Standby Cluster” upgrade methods.
