Ticket Details​

Fix error upon platform creation​

Audience: Partner

Description​

Previously, if your environment would have the Service Management Area disabled and you try to create a platform in the Admin Area, you would encounter an error which would also disappear after a few seconds. This error has been fixed and also now shows indefinitely.

Fix opening Platform Usage report details page​

Audience: User, Customer

Description​

In a case where TenatnID contains a slash, Platform Usage report details are not opened. This has been fixed now.

Fix Services not showing for Shared Marketplaces​

Audience: Customer, Partner

Description​

Previously, certain OSB Services that were restricted to specific Workspaces were not appearing on the Marketplace of these dedicated Workspaces. This is now fixed.

Improve Robustness for Kubernetes/Openshift Metering​

Audience: Operator, Partner, Customer

Description​

Previously, metering did not work when the resource included a resource limit with the k suffix, for example, a CPU limit of 1k. This resulted in empty Tenant Usage Reports and incomplete chargeback statements. This is now fixed. Chargeback statements will have to be regenerated. We will reach out to you if you are impacted.

Workload Identity Federation for GCP platforms​

Audience: Customer, Partner, Operator

Description​

You can now configure Workload Identity Federation for the service account in GCP replicator and metering platform configurations. This feature enables automatic rolling of credentials and you don't have to enter any GCP platform credentials to meshStack anymore.

How to use​

You can test it out by switching from the "Credentials" authentication type to "Workload Identity Federation" for all Service Accounts you want to change the authentication type for (e.g. replicator and metering are separate service principals). You can find a description of what needs to be configured on the Service Account in meshPanel, when you select "Workload Identity Federation".

Fix "View More" in the Tenants Overview​

Audience: User

Description​

Previously, when you opened the overview of the tenants under "Platforms" in the sidebar and clicked on "View more" to see the details of a tenant, you encountered a navigation error. This has been fixed.

Missing managing buttons in overview of Service Instances​

Audience: User

Description​

In rare cases, the buttons to update or delete a service instance didn't appear in the overview of service instances, which you could access via the marketplace control plane under Overview > Services > Service Instances. This has been fixed.

Fix Metering of Building Blocks in Custom Platforms​

Audience: Partner, Customer

Description​

For Building Block definitions that support more than one custom platform, metering and cost collection was active only for one of the supported custom platforms. Inside all other custom platforms, the Building Blocks could be used free of charge. This is now fixed.

UX improvement for platform and building block prices​

Audience: Customer, Partner

Description​

The section inside the panel for setting prices for platforms and building blocks was slightly modified to improve the general user experience.
