High level summary​

The SRE team continues work on Cardano environment improvements and general maintenance.

Some notable recent changes, updates or improvements include:

• Cardano-parts environments can now be migrated from Grafana Agent to Grafana Alloy.

• Most cardano-parts downstream clusters have now been migrated to grafana alloy use.

Repository Work​

Cardano-parts​

• Migrates to grafana alloy from grafana agent. Drops deprecated cardano-node service features and iohk-nix legacy mainnet relay filtering. Fixes cardano-parts jobs for cardano-cli breaking change compatibility. More detail is available in the release notes: cardano-parts-release-v2024-10-22

Cardano-playground​

• Migrates to grafana alloy for metrics collection, rotates sanchonet kes, fixes latest govtool develop nix packaging and nginx deployment and deploys to sanchonet. More detail is available in the PR description: cardano-playground-pull-34

Cardano-mainnet​

• Migrates to grafana alloy for metrics collection, fixes scheduled restart service status file. More detail is available in the PR description: cardano-mainnet-pull-24

Cardano-node​

• Removes legacy mainnet relay filter for bootstrap attr generation, bumps the iohkNix pin for similarly updated topology generation, updates mainnet topology config to match updated iohk-nix topology ordering. cardano-node-pull-6011

Govtool​

• Fixes nix builds for frontend and backend components, required node_nixpkgs pin update and regeneration of yarn.lock. Fixes impure nix builds required by some deployers by adding an optional returnShellEnv bool to the backend package. govtool-pull-2184

Iohk-nix​

• Removes deprecated legacy relays from mainnet env and corresponding filtering for bootstrap generation, simplifies bp config generation, arranges mainnet edgeNodes in alphabetical order. iohk-nix-pull-587

High level summary​

The SRE team continues work on Cardano environment improvements and general maintenance.

Some notable recent changes, updates or improvements include:

• All environments have been upgraded to cardano-node 9.2.1.

• Cardano-faucet 9.2 is available and deployed which is compatible with node 9.2.x and has fixed ipv6 functionality.

• All deployed machines now default to nix 2.24-maint after an upstream bug causing a hash miscalculation in submodules has been fixed. Nix 2.21 forward required some rework of the colmena deployment recipes as dirty git trees now force an impure colmena deployment.

• To ease the process of upgrading cardano-parts, releases will now be made instead of only PR merges with migration notes.
