Release v1.29.8+rke2r1
This v1.29.8+rke2r1 release updates Kubernetes to v1.29.8.
Important Notes
If your server (control-plane) nodes were not started with the --token
CLI flag or config file key, a randomized token was generated during initial cluster startup. This key is used both for joining new nodes to the cluster, and for encrypting cluster bootstrap data within the datastore. Ensure that you retain a copy of this token, as is required when restoring from backup.
You may retrieve the token value from any server already joined to the cluster:

Release v1.29.3+rke2r1
This v1.29.3+rke2r1 release updates Kubernetes to v1.29.3.
Important Notes
-
Canal uses flannel 0.24.3 which includes a bug: every 5 seconds it tries to add ipv6 iptables rules and fails if the node does not have an ipv6 address. The consequence is the log "Failed to ensure iptables rules: error setting up rules: failed to apply partial iptables-restore unable to run iptables-restore (, ): exit status 4" appears every 5 seconds in the flannel container of the canal pod.
-
Flannel daemonset is not tolerating node taints: "node-role.kubernetes.io/etcd:NoExecute", "node-role.kubernetes.io/control-plane:NoSchedule" and "node.cloudprovider.kubernetes.io/uninitialized:NoSchedule" which can create problems when deploying with Rancher in certain cloud-providers (e.g. vShpere or DigitalOcean).

Ensure that you retain a copy of this token, as is required when restoring from backup.You may retrieve the token value from any server already joined to the cluster:

Release v1.29.0+rke2r1
This v1.29.0+rke2r1 release is RKE2’s first in the v1.29 line. This release updates Kubernetes to v1.29.0.
Before upgrading from earlier releases, be sure to read the Kubernetes Urgent Upgrade Notes.
Important Notes
-
The experimental
secrets-encrypt rotate-keys
command, used to perform an abbreviated rotation of secrets encryptions keys, has been removed from this release due to changes in the upstream implementation of configuration reloading. It will return in a subsequent release; see https://github.com/rancher/rke2/issues/5152 for more information.
