Release 2026_048 (2026-11-16)

Impact

26.05

  • Machines will reboot to activate a changed kernel.

NixOS 26.05 platform

  • Adjust where the statshost role fetches relay information from for cross-rg relays (FC-56679)

  • configure-ipmi-controller.service is retried by systemd with geometric backoff: Restart=on-failure, 5s up to 60s delay, at most six attempts, 30 seconds timeout per attempt. A late-appearing IPMI device no longer leaves the unit failed until it is restarted manually. (PL-133838)

  • router: patch out usb support in ipxe to workaround crashes on newer hardware hosts (PL-135555)

  • Enable that grub kernel and initrd are copied to the /boot directory on the disk (PL-135828)

    This resolves some boot issues we have seen.

  • Add experimental Wazuh agent role and package at version 4.14.5. (PL-135426)

  • cloud-init Ubuntu VMs: We will soon provide images for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS out of the box
