Bug Fixes

  • Fixes an issue with node scheduling when Ansible hostvars contain a pipe (|) character.

  • Fixes an issue where virtual Ethernet link names might not be unique. This would cause nodes to fail to start. See story 2007431 for details.

  • Fixes an issue seen when using Jinja2 3.1.0.

  • Fixes system-wide installation of virtualbmc following the release of version 3.4 of the cryptography package. See story 2008607 for details.

  • Fixes an issue with virtual BMC on systems where SELinux is enabled. In this case the virtual BMC Python package is installed to the system rather than the virtual environment.
