Release 3.0.12

Date: 2019-01-14

Name: “jalapeño popper indianred grain”

Notes

This release addresses unhandled concurrency exceptions(lock timeouts and deadlocks) that may occur when running multiple instances of referenced jobs.

Using rundeck.disable.ref.stats=true in framework.properties to disable referenced job statistics updates can further reduce waits and retry WARN log entries.

Increasing the connection pool size may still be required if many referenced jobs are being run conccurently and/or across many nodes:

dataSource.properties.maxActive=200

Release 3.0.0

Date: 2018-07-27

Name: “jalapeño popper aquamarine apple”

Notes

Welcome to Rundeck 3.0, which consists of both under-the-hood changes (upgrading the underlying application framework) and visual changes (a revamped UI).

The application framework upgrade from Grails 2 to Grails 3 gets a lot of technical debt off of our plate, and enables some long-asked-for features, such as SSO.

Our new UI is just the first step on a path towards improved usability and flexibility, and we have big plans for more in the future.

Changes in open-source Rundeck (aka “Rundeck Core”) also carry over into Rundeck Pro.

We are also synchronizing our Rundeck Pro and Rundeck Core release versions to make it simpler. However, not every release of Rundeck Pro will go in our “supported” channel. We will continue to work on the 3.0.x development line of Rundeck Core, leading towards a supported Rundeck Pro 3.0 release to come later. If you are interested in trying Rundeck Pro 3.0, please visit Rundeck Pro.

Documentation

Documentation is available at http://rundeck.org/docs.

Our documentation project is ongoing, and we want your feedback: corrections, comments, and contributions. Please let us know how we can improve it: https://github.com/rundeck/docs.

Changes

Interface

New “Jalapeño Popper” UI

The new 3.0 UI is an aesthetic update with an eye towards what comes next. Based on a new Rundeck UI Style Guide, the entire application has been reviewed and updated with more consistent interfaces that make it easier to use, enable easier enhancements and modifications, and improve cross-browser compatibility.

We are still working on this: please give us feedback!

Installation

Executable war

The “launcher jar” for Rundeck 2 is gone (long live the launcher jar). However the .war file now operates the same way. Just use the .war in the same way as the previous launcher jar, or deploy it as a webapp.

Official Docker Image

Still “incubating”, we have published an offical docker image. Please give us your feedback on this development effort.

• Official docker image

Authentication

We no longer rely on “container-based” security/authentication (i.e. web.xml auth constraints, coupled with Jetty/Tomcat authentication setup.) We now use “Spring Security” for Grails, which moves the authentication checks into Rundeck itself. This enables SSO, Oauth, and other types of authentication which was difficult/impossible to implement before.

The default JAAS authentication method still works, so existing JAAS based configuration should operate as expected.

Pre-authentication modes should work as they did before.

SSO Integration

Okta integration is included in Rundeck Pro. See Rundeck SSO

Thanks

A lot of work went into the Grails 3 upgrade, many thanks especially to:

• Alberto Hormazabal
• Stephen Joyner

👏👏👏

Known Issues and Limitations

Startup error about log4j

If you update and get an error about Log4j configuration, add a line to your rundeck-config file: rundeck.log4j.config.file=/.../server/config/log4j.properties and specify the correct path to a log4j.properties file.

Customizing web.xml is no longer possible

The web.xml file is no longer available. If you were modifying this after install before, let us know how/for what reason. (Typically modifying session timeout or auth constraints). Also, please see Authentication Changes section.

Note that the required role customization is no longer necessary

Must define JDBC driver class name

If using Mysql/other DBs which require a JDBC driver, be sure to specify it explicitly in the rundeck-config file, e.g. dataSource.driverClassName=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

Oracle and other relational DB Support

Support for Oracle is still considered experimental. We have confirmed that it works with oracle 12c and 11g, however we would like your feedback.

Upgrading

For the most part, Rundeck 3.0 is drop-in compatible with existing Rundeck 2.11 installations.

We recommend doing a fresh install of 3.0.0 and copying your Jobs/projects into it for testing.

If you are upgrading in-place, Be sure to backup import data/configs before upgrading.

If you are using the rundeck Launcher jar, replace it with the .war artifact, which can be renamed with a .jar extension if needed.

See the Known Issues and Limitations notes above.

Additional Enhancements since Rundeck 2.11:

• Limit multiple executions of a job
• Encrypt passwords stored in configuration files
• API additions: Retry a job based on previous execution, access metrics information

Release 2.11.0

Date: 2018-04-27

Name: “cappuccino olive music”

Upgrading from Earlier versions

• See the Upgrading Guide

Notes

New Features:

• SCM/Git plugin:
  • works in Cluster mode
  • improvements to jobs page load speed
  • can disable SCM status checks in the GUI
• Projects:
  • Set a Label to display instead of the name
  • new default: projectsStorageType defaults to db (see below)
• Job reference steps:
  • Can reference jobs via UUID as well as group/name, so you can rename jobs #3115
  • Deleting a job will check if any steps reference the job and warn you
  • Automatically pass job options to the job reference #3056
  • Notifications for referenced jobs are triggered
  • Statistics (success/duration) of referenced jobs are updated
  • Timeout for referenced jobs is enforced
  • Choose behavior if the referenced job is disabled: fail or pass
  • (see #3040)
• Job Options:
  • Set a Label to display instead of the name
  • Multivalue option delimiter is available in data context as ${option.name.delimiter}/$RD_OPTION_NAME_DELIMITER
• Plugins: admins can disable/enable plugins for a project in the GUI or via project config #3122
• Job Node Threadcount: can use an option value
• Job Notification:
  • Can send a notification if the job duration exceeds an absolute time, or relative to the job’s average #3087
  • Separate notifications for failure vs. retryable failure (i.e.) #2864
• Job Definition visibility ACL:
  • A new ACL access level view is a subset of the read access level for jobs, and does not allow users to view the “Definition” tab of a Job, or download the XML/YAML definitions.
• Plugin development:
  • dynamic list of Select value inputs for Java plugins
  • Documentation for LogFilter and ContentConverter plugins added
  • Groovy Plugin DSL added for LogFilter and ContentConverter plugins
• Execution View:
  • Can link or redirect to the Log Output tab for Executions
• Internationalization:
  • Improvements, and French translation added by PeekLeon! 👏👏 🇫🇷
• API:
  • Added endpoints for writeable Resource Model Sources (such as built in File plugin)
  • List project sources, retrieve node definitions from each source
  • Writeable sources allow updating node data via API

Bug fixes:

• many

Potentially breaking changes:

RPM spec:

The rundeck user/group is now created within system UID ranges #3195.

ACLs: Edit Project Configuration/Nodes GUI access level requirements changed:

Previously: GUI actions “Project > Edit Configuration” and “Project > Edit Nodes” required admin project access. Now: only configure level access is required.

NOTE: API behavior was always this way, so this change simply aligns the access requirements.

Potential security implications:

• users/roles granted configure access to a project will now be able to modify Project Nodes or Configuration via the GUI
• the same users/roles would already have this access if using the API

See: #3084

ACLs: Job Definition visibility

A new ACL access level view is a subset of the read access level for jobs, and does not allow users to view the “Definition” tab of a Job, or download the XML/YAML definitions.

ACLs which allow read to Jobs, will work as before. To disallow Job Definition viewing/downloading, you should change your ACLs to only allow view access.

Project Storage Type is now db by default:

If you want to continue using filesystem storage for project config/readme/motd files, you will need to set this in your rundeck-config.properties before upgrading:

rundeck.projectsStorageType=filesystem

Upgrading an existing filesystem configuration to db is automatic, and project configs/readme/motd will be loaded into DB storage at system startup.

To encrypt the DB storage, you will need to enable encryption for the “Project Configuration” storage layer.

Date: 2016-02-25

Name: “cafe bonbon dodgerblue leaf”

Notes

Primarily bug fixes, and some enhancements:

• Asynchronous nodes cache. Per-project and global toggle and configurable retention delay. By default, projects now use an asynchronous method for retrieving Node data from Resource Model Sources. You should see an improvement in page load when using slow model sources (such as a URL for a slow endpoint).
• Performance improvements with many thousands of Nodes. The Nodes and Commands page, as well as other places where Nodes are loaded (e.g. Job editor) now should be much more responsive when you have e.g. 20K nodes. The Nodes page now uses result paging, and some parts of the UI now truncate the result set as well if you have many nodes.

Release 2.4.0

Date: 2014-12-16

Name: “americano indigo briefcase”

This release has bug fixes and new features, including some GUI improvements.

New Features

• Job references can override Node Filters. See updates to XML and YAML job definition formats as well.
• Job and Option descriptions can contain markdown and HTML. For Jobs, the first line is the short description, and following lines are interpreted as markdown.
• MSSQL compatibility
• Some GUI tweaks and changes
  • A new Action menu is available next to the Job name in job listing and view pages. Actions include Edit, Duplicate, Delete, and download XML/YAML definitions.
  • The Delete Job link in the Job Edit page has been removed
  • The Job Edit link in job lists has been replaced with an Action menu
  • Hovering on job name in job lists now triggers the detail popup after a slight delay. Previously it was triggered by hovering on the Edit link.
  • Execution follow page layout has been rearranged
  • Added extended Job descriptions (sanitized Markdown/html)
  • Job Edit/Create page: you are now asked to confirm navigation away from the page if you have made changes to the Job

Incubator features

• Parallel step execution

  • this can be enabled with rundeck-config.properties entry:

      feature.incubator.parallelWorkflowStrategy=true

• ssh-agent forwarding for ssh connections

  • this can be enabled per node, project, or server framework.properties:

      framework.local.ssh-agent=<true|false>
      framework.local.ttl-ssh-agent=<time in sec>

    project.properties:

      project.local.ssh-agent=<true|false>
      project.local.ttl-ssh-agent=<time in sec>

    Node properties:

      local-ssh-agent=<true|false>
      local-ttl-ssh-agent=<time in sec>

Compatibility notes

A bug in API v11 XML responses caused them to sometimes be incorrectly wrapped in a <result> element, this has now been corrected. See the API Docs for information. The Rundeck API Java Client library has been updated to workaround this issue (for previous versions of Rundeck).

What is “americano indigo briefcase”?

New versions of Rundeck will have a name based on the version number. The 2.x theme is Coffee, and 2.4.x is “americano”. The point release defines a combination of color and icon we can display in the GUI for easier visual differentiation. 2.4.0 is “indigo briefcase”.

Why yes, I’d like an americano, thank you.

Release 2.2.3

Date: 2014-09-24

Fix several issues found in 2.2.2:

• 2.2.2: Workflow editor drag/drop or step delete doesn’t work
• Documentation: Sudo password option type incorrect: should specify Secure Remote Authentication option
• plugin development: plugin properties using rendering options should allow String values

Release notes from 2.2.2 follow:

This release fixes a number of bugs and addresses several potential security issues:

1. Require a unique token for each form request from the GUI, which prevents replay and CSRF attacks
2. Updated all pages to prevent unencoded data from being written to the response, preventing XSS style attacks.
3. Prevent access to the /api URLs via the web GUI.
4. Some plugins (Resource model, Node Executor and File Copier) now support using Password fields displayed in the Project config page. The field values once set are never revealed in clear text via the GUI.

Please see the Notes below for some configuration information related to these changes.

A big Thank You to one of our clients for sponsoring the work for these enhancements.

Security Notes:

The new form tokens used in all form requests by default will expire in 30 minutes. This means that if your session timeout is larger than 30 minutes and you attempt to e.g. run a job after your web page has been sitting open for longer than that, you will see an “Invalid token” error. If this becomes a problem for you you can either change the expiration time for these tokens, or switch to using non-expiring tokens. See Administration - Configuration File Reference - Security.

To add a Password field definition to your plugin, see Plugin Development - Description Properties. (Note that currently using property annotations is not supported for the three plugin types that can use Password properties.)

Release 2.2.1

Date: 2014-07-30

Bugfix release.

Upgrade notes:

See the Upgrading Guide.

Contributors

• Greg Schueler (gschueler)

Issues

• example node filters in help popover when clicked go to error page
• Job references listed in workflow definition are hard to read
• Job retry is not documented
• file-copy-destination-dir default value for windows nodes is invalid
• Rundeck war should include bundled plugins

• Links to localhost in the activity tab
• stacktrace.log location should be configurable
• aclpolicy: syntax error in yaml file should indicate file name
• login page “welcome message” needs formatting

• Allow multiple default values for “Multi-valued” options

Release 2.2.0

Date: 2014-07-11

New features:

• Job timeout: specify a maximum duration for a job. If the job execution exceeds this duration, it will be halted (as if killed manually). You can use a simple format like “120m” (120 minutes) or “2h” (2 hours). You can specify the timeout via a job option by setting it to ${option.name}. This only affects the job when executed directly, not when run as a job reference.
• Job retry: specify a maximum retry attempt for a job. If the job fails or is timed out, it will be retried. The maximum value can be specified via a job option if set to ${option.name}.
• Delete executions: delete executions individually or in bulk. Requires a ‘delete_execution’ action allowed via aclpolicy.

Some bug fixes are included, as well as some pull requests to enhance the LDAP login module:

• Support nested LDAP group membership (see Added support for nested groups in JettyCachingLdapLoginModule.)
• Support a “supplementalRoles” setting, which can help avoid the !role issue. See Login Module Configuration.

Upgrade notes:

Several domain fields were added. Mysql and H2 should upgrade in place without issue.

Release 2.0.0

Date: 2014-01-31

Rundeck 2.0.0 introduces a large number of major changes. We have revamped the entire UI and overhauled the underpinnings. Our goals were to improve the user experience and cut down some of the technical debt which had accrued.

Note that the documentation is still being updated. We will update it as it improves at http://rundeck.org/2.0.0

Before you upgrade to Rundeck 2.0, please be sure to read the Upgrading Guide located in the documentation.

Release 1.6.0

Date: 2013-08-02

Rundeck 1.6.0 introduces two major changes and a number of bug fixes and enhancements:

• Logging system plugins.
  • New facility allows integration with other systems, like Logstash, and improves Rundeck’s behavior in a clustered cloud environment by allowing you to have log files synched to a shared storage more easily.
• Refreshed GUI
  • Did you know it hasn’t really been changed since Rundeck 1.0?! We fixed some of the usability complaints about the old GUI, and our goal was to address usability without having to change functionality, but some of our future GUI enhancement ideas snuck in.

Notable issues:

• Allow scripts to be run as sudo - popular request!
• Use defaults for optional parameter values, and expand to blank value when missing - More intuitive and less annoying!

Many thanks for the helpful contributions from the community!
