Reduced timeout for Gateway's caches to acquire a connection to Swarm Storage nodes. This avoids incoming connections triggering file handle limits with threads stuck in ScspObjectCache, requiring a "systemctl cloudgateway restart". (CLOUD-3853)
Gateway 8.1.0 is required when using a search feed created with Swarm 16.1.2 search.perDomainIndex=True. No gateway.cfg changes are needed. Please remember to restart Gateway whenever the default search feed is changed. (CLOUD-3988)
[Internal] Retention lock updates now use synchronous indexing to avoid potential consistency issues. This can be disabled by setting [s3] enhancedListingConsistency = False, though it disables all synchronous indexing. (CLOUD-3942)
Added a policy action ListAllMyBuckets for AWS compatibility, to allow a listing of all the bucket names in a domain. Previously ListDomain permission was required but that can also allow for the listing of objects within buckets via SCSP. Enabling this action requires using the Content UI policy editor in "json" mode, at the tenant or domain level. (CLOUD-3526)
For improved compatibility with AWS S3, Gateway 8.1.0 now allows object locking retention dates earlier than the bucket default. (CLOUD-3800)
Gateway 8.1.0 cloudgateway_audit.log now includes trailing fields on most requests that indicate the milliseconds spent in different stages. The "auth" shows the time spent in authentication and authorization. Listings show the index "refresh" time ("F" means failure), "nondelimited" query time, and for delimiter listings the "query" and "commonprefixes" query times. Writes and deletes show the time spent "indexing" into Elasticsearch. RSW requests show the "rswfeeds" status and "rswtime". (CLOUD-3902)
Dependencies were had been updated to avoid all High severity security vulnerabilities. We recommend all Gateway 7 v7 and 8v8.0 customers upgrade even if older versions of Swarm are still used. (CLOUD-3905)
Better Optimized error handling around for object retention updates. Upgrade to Swarm 16.1 if experiencing persistent 503 errors on some objects [ReaderNotFound7 ESR37]. [unfortunately this doesn't really help, veeam does not handle 503 SlowDowns well].
Fixed rare "Index 0 out of bounds for length 0" error when using SAML and downloading an object. (CLOUD-3948)
Increase [SwarmCluster] (?) indexerMaxConnections (default 30) and indexerMaxConnectionsPerRoute (default 10) to allow more open connections to Elasticsearch nodes for listing and metering queries. Set to -1 to not change the default. (CLOUD-3983)
Respond with an error instead of empty listing results when indexerHosts [link Gateway Config] does not match the default Search Feed. (CLOUD-3219)
Gateway 8.1.0 improves Improved the audit logging of sub-requests of S3 DeleteObjects and CopyObject requests. The internal requests have the incoming request-id followed by -<count> or -copysource. (CLOUD-3951)
Gateway 8.1.0 fixes Fixed the remaining Elasticsearch deprecation warnings triggered by some Portal metering queries:
"date-interval-getter" - "[interval] on [date_histogram] is deprecated". (CLOUD-3909)Gateway 8.1.0 fixes Fixed an issue where Gateway 8.0 and later logs "S3ObjectRequestHandler: Unable to determine Veeam SOSAPI capacity.xml" with a NullPointerException if metering or quota is disabled. [A 200 with an XML response is returned but values are -1 which Veeam treats as unknown. (CLOUD-3941)
An Fixed an S3 HEAD request of an object that could respond with a 500 Internal Error. It now responds with a 403 Forbidden like GET. (CLOUD-3987)
