Description

Direct upgrade from 3.1 to >4.1 will not be possible, and the upgrade path will include an upgrade to 4.1 first.

This is compatible with our support policy as 4.1 will be the next ESR and is fully compatible with Rudder 3.1 agents.

This means:

  • Remove legacy package promises from system techniques
  • Remove old acl based on IP/hostname
  • Disable the old protocol on the server
  • Remove the "skipidentify" setting from the webapp as it is now ignored

And also:

  • Drop CFEngine 3.6 support in the new ncf branch
  • Synchronize the CFEngine stdlib that will now be compatible with ncf
