Details:

1. Behavior of the WHMCS module solusvmpro is changed by SVM-1023.

   Old behavior: if a client has a single virtual server and the server is removed from WHMCS, the client is not removed from SolusVM.

   New behavior: if a client has a single virtual server and the server is removed from WHMCS - the client is also removed from SolusVM. If later new virtual server is created in WHMCS, the client is re-created in SolusVM.

1.27.23

14.11.2022

• feature | New API function vserver-migrate. (SVM-3612)

Details:

1. New API function supports only KVM migration initially.

1.27.16

03.10.2022

• feature | PHP has been upgraded to version 7.4.32. (SVM-3585)

1.27.15

27.09.2022

• feature | Support of disk driver scsi for KVM VMs. (SVM-2986)

Details:

1. Disk driver scsi can now be selected on OS template adding/editing screen and on KVM VM management screens in admin UI/client UI.

2. When scsi driver is selected, attribute discard with value unmap is added to element driver of disk devices in XML configuration file of the KVM VM.

3. Prefix of the disk device name inside the VM depends on the selected driver: ide/virtio - vd (e.g., /dev/vda), scsi - sd (e.g., /dev/sda). This is the libvirt behavior. Careless changing of the disk driver can lead to inability of KVM VMs to boot. Corresponding notifications have been added in UI.

4. If some files inside the existing OS template refer to the disk name (e.g., in /etc/fstab), it can be required to edit the template before using driver scsi with this OS template.

5. Downgrade from version 1.27.15 Mainline to 1.27.09 Stable is not recommended in case if SolusVM has KVM VMs. Such downgrade can lead to inability of KVM VMs with scsi disk drivers to boot.

1.27.14

20.09.2022

• feature | Set netmask from IP block for OpenVZ containers. (SVM-3566)

Details:

1. In older versions default netmask /24 was used for OpenVZ containers on EZ templates and /32 for containers on legacy templates.
2. Now netmask from corresponding IP block is used.

08.09.2022

• feature | New API function get-all-nodes-statistics. (SVM-3555)

Details:

1. Output format is JSON only.
2. Output field names are inherited from API function node-statistics besides new field node_error.

1.27.11

15.08.2022

• bugfix | Fixed the issue when API vserver-rebuild did not reinstall a VM from legacy to EZ template and vice versa. (SVM-3450)
• bugfix | Fixed the issue when KVM VM migration gets stuck if real disk size mismatches value in SolusVM DB. (SVM-3549)

Details:

1. Before starting KVM migration SolusVM compares disk size in the DB and on the Node and displays warning if the size is different.
2. Admin user can continue with the migration ignoring the warning.
3. Corresponding information is logged in Admin UI > Log > System messages.

1.27.10

11.08.2022

• feature | New system setting Block direct access to VNC is introduced to increase security. (SVM-3444)
• bugfix | Fixed the issue when SolusVM incorrectly counts the number of extra IPs assigned to a VPS when upgrading a service in WHMCS via configurable options. Fixed in version 4.1.8 of solusvmpro. (SVM-3482)

Details:

Setting Block direct access to VNC is disabled by default. It can be enabled in Admin UI > Configuration > Settings, tab Other.

When it is enabled:

1. Direct access to VNC TCP ports is closed in iptables on KVM and Xen nodes. Access to VNC console works only from SolusVM UI.
2. Default range of TCP ports that is closed on SN is 5901-6000. It can be extended up to 5901-7000 in system settings.
3. API function vserver-vnc hides values of vncip, vncport, vncpassword.
4. VNC settings Address, Port, Password and tab VNC Password are hidden in SolusVM client UI.
5. Outdated Java VNC console in WHMCS does not work. Use HTML5 console instead.

2. On changing VNC password in admin UI or client UI the password length cannot exceed 8 characters now.
3. Now API vserver-console cannot be launched for KVM since it configures serial console but KVM VMs are accessed via VNC console.
4. If WHMCS module solusvmpro is in use it is recommended to update the module to the latest version 4.1.7

1.27.01

30.05.2022

• feature | Added support of multiple KVM disk storages. (SVM-3486)
• feature | New API function vserver-secondary-disk-create. (SVM-3441)
• feature | New API function vserver-secondary-disk-resize. (SVM-3442)
• feature | New API function vserver-secondary-disk-delete. (SVM-3443)

Details:

1. New KVM Storage Manager and Tags Mechanism are the key components of the new KVM storage management flow.
2. Downgrade from version 1.27.01 Mainline to 1.26.13 Stable is not recommended in case if SolusVM has KVM VMs. Such downgrade can lead to unexpected stop of existing KVM VMs and damage to their XML configs.
3. We recommend performing update from older versions to version 1.27.01 out of business hours or in time with minimal load to the system because of the possibility of a short service downtime during this update installation.
4. Update to version 1.27.01 must not intersect with AutoFTP backups creation process.
5. Note: It is recommended to carefully read the list of known issues and limitations.
