Current Series Release Notes¶

23.0.0-9¶

Magnum’s tables no longer declare an explicit UTF8 character set in their creation migrations, and models.table_args() no longer passes mysql_charset. All tables now defer to the magnum database’s own default character set and collation, as deployment tools already create it consistently. Previously, some tables declared a bare CHARACTER SET and others declared none at all. From MariaDB 11.5 a bare CHARACTER SET stopped resolving to the same collation as the database default (MDEV-25829), so a table that declared the charset and one that did not could end up with different collations. This broke new deployments in the nodegroups_v2 migration, which joins the nodegroup and cluster tables, with Illegal mix of collations (utf8mb3_general_ci,IMPLICIT) and (utf8mb3_uca1400_ai_ci,IMPLICIT) for operation '='. Existing deployments are unaffected, because the migrations that create these tables have already run for them.
