1.1.2. Infrastructure & platform updates

Containerized deployments use Valkey instead of Redis

Containerized deployments now utilize Valkey 8 running inside an Enterprise Linux 10 container, instead of Redis 6. The change is transparent to users and no action is necessary.

As the new container is based on Enterprise Linux 10, the system requirements of Enterprise Linux 10 apply, even if the host system is not running Enterprise Linux 10. Especially this means the system needs to support the x86_64-v3 microarchitecture level. See Exploring x86-64-v3 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 for further information.

1.2. Upgrade warnings

Smart Proxy TLS configuration parameters have been renamed

The ssl_disabled_ciphers and tls_disabled_versions Smart Proxy parameters have been replaced by tls_ciphers and tls_min_version.

  • ssl_disabled_ciphers (an array of cipher suites to disable) is replaced by tls_ciphers (an OpenSSL cipher string). When unset, the Smart Proxy auto-detects: PROFILE=SYSTEM if crypto-policies are present, otherwise HIGH.

  • tls_disabled_versions (an array of TLS versions to disable) is replaced by tls_min_version (a single minimum version: 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, or 1.3). When unset, the minimum version is determined by the system OpenSSL configuration.

If you customized these settings through DO_NOT_USE_foreman-installer_IN_CONTAINERIZED_BUILDS, the old parameters are automatically removed during upgrade. No automatic migration of values is performed. If you previously set custom TLS cipher or version restrictions, reconfigure them using the new parameters after upgrading.
