Known Issues:

With the move to a distroless container in v1.59, root CA certificates went missing. This affects the Kiali integration with OpenID. The problem will be fixed in the next release (v1.61). The workaround is to use one of the “-distro” image tags found on the Quay.io repo by specifying it in the deployment.image_version setting of the Kiali CR or server helm chart value. If using the operator, in order to be able to set the deployment.image_version within the Kiali CR, you must enable the allowAdHocKialiImage setting when installing the operator.

Upgrade Notes:

The improved control plane card on the Overview page makes use of previously unused metrics. If these metrics have been removed from your environment you will need to add them back for the feature to work. As a result,

Metric Notes
process_cpu_seconds_total used to graph cpu usage in the control plane overview card
container_memory_working_set_bytes used to graph memory usage in the control plane overview card
pilot_proxy_convergence_time_sum used in control plane overview card to show the average proxy push time
pilot_proxy_convergence_time_count used in control plane overview card to show the average proxy push time


If these metrics have been removed from your environment you will need to add them back for the feature to work. As a result, we have updated our recommended Prometheus metric thinning configuration. See kiali.io for the updated configuration. The metrics used are not typically very heavy and adding them back should likely not be an issue.

See this FAQ entry for a list of all metrics required by Kiali.

Please note this introduces a backward-incompatible change. Users with the prior ingress settings defined in their Kiali CR will need to make an update. Other users are not affected. The previous ingress settings were:

deployment:
  ingress_enabled: <true|false>
  override_ingress_yaml:
    ...the override yaml here...

This has been changed to the following:

deployment:
  ingress:
    enabled: <true|false>
    override_yaml:
      ...the override yaml here...
