New in this release

Feature enhancements

• New Redis Enterprise software version 6.4.2-115

Upgrade considerations

Be aware the following changes included in this release affect the upgrade process. Please read carefully before upgrading to 6.4.2-8.

• Upgrade path to versions 7.2.4-2 or later

  Upgrading from this versions 7.2.4-2 or 7.2.4-7 is not possible using the OpenShift Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM). OLM users will need to skip to version 7.2.4-10 to upgrade from this release version.

• ValidatingWebhookConfiguration

  This release uses a new ValidatingWebhookConfiguration resource to replace the redb-admission webhook resource. To use releases 6.4.2-4 or later, delete the old webhook resource and apply the new file. See upgrade Redis cluster for instructions.

• OpenShift SCC

  This release includes a new SCC (redis-enterprise-scc-v2) that you need to bind to your service account before upgrading. OpenShift clusters running version 6.2.12 or earlier upgrading to version 6.2.18 or later might get stuck if you skip this step. See upgrade a Redis Enterprise cluster (REC) for more info.
