<h3>Fixed</h3>
<p>The following issues were fixed in 1.32.1000-gke.57:</p>
<ul>
<li>Fixed vulnerabilities listed in <a href="https://docs.cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/distributed-cloud/bare-metal/docs/version-history">Vulnerability fixes</a>.</li>
<li>Cluster and
node pool failures are now surfaced in the <code>RecentFailures</code> field
in the cluster status. This change provides a centralized location for viewing
errors from both worker node pools and control plane nodes, improving the
troubleshooting and debugging experience.
</li>
<li>Fixed an issue where Metrics API operations—including
<code>kubectl top</code>, Horizontal Pod Autoscaling (HPA), and Vertical Pod Autoscaling
(VPA)—could fail with TLS verification errors during CA rotation.
</li>
<li>Resolved an issue where Certificate Authority (CA) rotation became stuck
on self-managed clusters (admin, hybrid, or standalone). This fix resolves an
internal resource synchronization error that previously prevented the rotation
process from completing successfully.
</li>
</ul>

<h3>Announcement</h3>
<p>Google Distributed Cloud (software only) for bare metal 1.33.500-gke.63 is now available for
download. To upgrade, see <a href="how-to/upgrade">Upgrade clusters</a>.
Google Distributed Cloud for bare metal
1.33.500-gke.63 runs on Kubernetes v1.33.5-gke.2200.</p>
<p>After a release, it takes approximately 7 to 14 days for the version to become
available for installations or upgrades with the GKE On-Prem API clients: the
Google Cloud console, the gcloud CLI, and Terraform.</p>
<p>If you use a third-party storage vendor, check the Google Distributed Cloud-ready
storage partners document to make sure the storage vendor has already passed the
qualification for this release of Google Distributed Cloud for bare metal.</p>
<h3>Announcement</h3>
<p>In Google Distributed Cloud (software only) for bare metal versions 1.33.0 and later,
 <code>bmctl</code> operations can fail to stream logs from pods to the local workspace,
 causing empty or incomplete logs in <code>bmctl-workspace/{CLUSTER NAME}/log directory</code>.</p>
<p>This issue occurred because a recent Kubernetes library upgrade introduced a
required context parameter for pod log streaming. The bmctl tool was
incorrectly passing a context with a 10-second timeout, causing the log streamer
to terminate prematurely for pods with long lifecycles, such as Ansible runner
jobs.</p>
<p>This issue is resolved in the following versions:</p>
<ul>
<li>1.33.500 and later</li>
<li>1.34.100 and later</li>
<li>1.35.0 and later</li>
</ul>
<p>If you use an affected version and require the logs for a failed or ongoing
operation, check logs using <code>kubectl</code>. If the cluster is accessible, you can
manually retrieve logs directly from the relevant pods using the <code>kubectl logs</code>
command.</p>
<p>It is recommended to upgrade to a fixed version to ensure that all <code>bmctl</code>
operation logs are correctly captured in your local workspace for troubleshooting
and auditing purposes</p>
<h3>Security</h3>
<p>The following issues were fixed in 1.33.500-gke.63:</p>
<ul>
<li>Fixed vulnerabilities listed in <a href="https://docs.cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/distributed-cloud/bare-metal/docs/version-history">Vulnerability fixes</a>.</li>

release of Distributed Cloud for bare metal.</p>
<h3>Feature</h3>
<p>The following features were added in 1.34.0-gke.566:</p>
<ul>
<li><p><strong>Preview</strong>: Vertical Pod autoscaling can now be configured to use your
Prometheus instance as a persistent history provider for long-term CPU and
memory usage data.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Preview</strong>: Added support for horizontal Pod autoscaling that uses custom
metrics from your Prometheus server to scale your applications, eliminating
the operational burden of manually deploying and managing the adapter, its
configuration, and RBAC. The automated solution handles the entire
lifecycle, making it simpler to scale applications based on the metrics that
matter most to your business.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Preview</strong>: Added support for fast failover for the egress NAT gateway
running in high availability. This feature improves both the reliability and
throughput of egress traffic.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>GA</strong>: Added support for skip minor version cluster upgrades. You can
directly upgrade your cluster control plane nodes (and entire cluster if
worker node pools aren't pinned at a lower version) to two minor versions
above the current version. Added the <a href="https://docs.cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/distributed-cloud/bare-metal/docs/reference/bmctl#upgrade_intermediate-version"><code>bmctl upgrade
intermediate-version</code></a>
command to print the intermediate version for a skip minor version upgrade.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Preview</strong>: Added support for advanced networking features on admin
 clusters. This capability lets you specify <a href="https://docs.cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/distributed-cloud/bare-metal/docs/how-to/multi-nic">multiple network interfaces for
 Pods</a>
 and lets you use <a href="https://docs.cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/distributed-cloud/bare-metal/docs/how-to/lb-bundled-bgp">bundled load balancing with BGP</a>
 on your version 1.34 or higher admin clusters.</p>
<p>This note is incorrect; see entry for <a href="https://docs.cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/distributed-cloud/bare-metal/docs/release-notes#January_16_2026">January 16, 2026</a>.</p></li>
</ul>
<h3>Change</h3>
<p>The following functional changes were made in 1.34.0-gke.566:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Enabled Ansible SSH pipelining by default to improve performance. This can
be disabled by adding the annotation
<code>preview.baremetal.cluster.gke.io/ansible-ssh-pipelining: "disable"</code> to the
Cluster custom resource.</p></li>
<li><p>During cluster creation and update operations, NodePools validate IP address
uniqueness against all existing underlay Nodes, regardless of status. Node
deprovisioning is blocked until the associated Kubernetes Node is deleted,
unless the <code>node-deletion-timeout-seconds</code> annotation is present on the
cluster.</p></li>
<li><p>Upgraded containerd from 1.7 to 2.0.</p></li>
<li><p>Registry mirror configuration information has been migrated to the
<code>hosts.toml</code> containerd config file.</p></li>
<li><p>Upgrade preflight checks now validate PodDisruptionBudgets.</p></li>
<li><p>GKE Identity Service has been migrated from a Deployment to a DaemonSet for
improved reliability on control plane nodes.</p></li>
<li><p>Added support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.6.</p></li>
<li><p>Removed support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.2 as it is beyond the <a href="https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata#RHEL8_and_9_Life_Cycle">Red
Hat support
window</a>.</p></li>
<li><p>Added support for the 6.14 kernel package is supported for use with Ubuntu
24.04 LTS.</p></li>
</ul>
<h3>Fixed</h3>
<p>The following issues were fixed in 1.34.0-gke.566:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Updated the <code>bmctl restore</code> command so that it restores the Node Problem
Detector systemd Service for admin clusters.</p></li>
<li><p>Fixed the <code>etcd-cleanup</code> job timeout issue caused by the use of incorrect
certificates.</p></li>
<li><p>Fixed an issue where the cluster restore process leaves the Kubelet
certificate files as regular files instead of symbolic links, preventing
certificate rotation.</p></li>
</ul>

<li><p>Fixed an issue where configuring your cluster to use <a href="https://docs.cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/distributed-cloud/bare-metal/docs/installing/wi-cluster-auth">Workload Identity
Cluster
Authentication</a>
together with a <a href="https://docs.cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/distributed-cloud/bare-metal/docs/installing/registry-mirror">registry
mirror</a>
caused containerd instability. To use the fix, add the
<code>baremetal.cluster.gke.io/enable-gcr-image-credential-refresh: "false"</code>
cluster annotation.</p></li>
<li><p>Fixed a timeout issue for the <code>kubeadm</code> API server health check that runs
during bootstrap cluster creation. The timeout issue blocked some cluster
operations, such as restoring a cluster.</p></li>

<h3>Issue</h3>
<p>For information about the latest known issues, see <a href="https://docs.cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/distributed-cloud/bare-metal/docs/troubleshooting/known-issues">Google Distributed Cloud for bare metal known issues</a> in the Troubleshooting section.</p>
<h3>Feature</h3>
<p>The following features were added in 1.33.0-gke.799:</p>
<ul>
<li><p><strong>GA</strong>: Introduced an Envoy sidecar into the GKE Identity Service to
increase security, reliability, and performance.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>GA</strong>: Added support for the Ubuntu 24.04 LTS operating system with Linux
kernel versions, such as 6.8 and 6.11. Support for Linux kernel 6.14 is
explicitly excluded.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>GA</strong>: Added the ability to override the cluster-level pod density setting
for individual node pools.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Preview</strong>: Added Node Agent to give you the ability to transition from
using Ansible over SSH for cluster operations to a more secure, agent-based
model. Added <a href="https://docs.cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/distributed-cloud/bare-metal/docs/reference/bmctl#nodeagent"><code>bmctl
nodeagent</code></a>
commands to provide a straightforward and reliable process of migrating
existing clusters to use Node Agent.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Preview</strong>: Added a bundled version of the <a href="https://docs.nvidia.com/datacenter/cloud-native/gpu-operator/latest/index.html#about-the-nvidia-gpu-operator">NVIDIA GPU Operator</a>
(version 25.3.1). The bundled operator is an open-source solution for
managing the NVIDIA software components needed to provision and manage GPU
devices.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Preview</strong>: Added Dynamic Resource Allocation, a Kubernetes API that lets
you request and share generic resources, such as GPUs, among pods and
containers. When enabled, this capability helps you run AI workloads by
dynamically and precisely allocating the GPU resources within your bare
metal clusters, improving resource utilization and performance for demanding
workloads.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Preview</strong>: Added vertical Pod autoscaling, which lets you analyze and set
CPU and memory resources required by Pods. Instead of having to set
up-to-date CPU requests and limits and memory requests and limits for the
containers in your Pods, you can configure vertical Pod autoscaling to
provide recommended values for CPU and memory requests and limits that you
can use to manually update your Pods, or you can configure vertical Pod
autoscaling to automatically update the values.</p></li>
<li><p><strong>Preview</strong>: Added support for skip minor version cluster upgrades. You can
directly upgrade your cluster control plane nodes (and entire cluster if
worker node pools aren't pinned at a lower version) to two minor versions
above the current version. Added the <a href="https://docs.cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/distributed-cloud/bare-metal/docs/reference/bmctl#upgrade_intermediate-version"><code>bmctl upgrade
intermediate-version</code></a>
to print the intermediate version for a skip minor version upgrade.</p></li>
<li><p>Surface failures from node pool status to the <code>RecentFailures</code> field in
cluster status.</p></li>
<li><p>Surface failures from failed preflight checks triggered by the cluster
controller to the <code>RecentFailures</code> field in cluster status.</p></li>
</ul>
<h3>Fixed</h3>
<p>The following issues were fixed in 1.33.0-gke.799:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Fixed an issue where restoring a cluster that has a node with a GPU causes
instability of pods on the nodes.</p></li>
<li><p>Fixed an issue that caused the Ansible playbook for handling Cloud Audit
Logging to fail and not complete.</p></li>
<li><p>Fixed an issue that caused nodes to get stuck in maintenance mode. Health
checks have been updated so that the network check job skips connectivity
checks for nodes that are in maintenance mode.</p></li>
<li><p>Fixed an issue where the CronJob for periodic health checks wasn't updating
after configuration changes.</p></li>
<li><p>Fixed vulnerabilities listed in <a href="https://docs.cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/distributed-cloud/bare-metal/docs/vulnerabilities">Vulnerability
fixes</a>.</p></li>
</ul>
<h3>Change</h3>
<p>The following functional changes were made in 1.33.0-gke.799:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Changed logging behavior so that kubeadm logs show up in the journald of the
node machine where kubeadm runs.</p></li>
<li><p>To help prevent stale ARP cache issues, <code>iptables-persistent</code> is installed
in Debian nodes.</p></li>
<li><p>Cluster manifests are deployed using a Kubernetes job, allowing the cluster
operator to be more responsive to cluster events.</p></li>
<li><p>Updated the validation checks for cluster upgrades to enforce the <a href="https://docs.cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/distributed-cloud/bare-metal/docs/how-to/upgrade-lifecycle#version_skew">cluster
version skew
rules</a>
for user clusters. If the upgrade version information for a user cluster
doesn't comply with the version skew rules, the upgrade is halted.</p></li>
<li><p>Updated health checks and upgrade preflight checks to inspect for kubeadm
certificate expiration.</p></li>
<li><p>Updated etcd version to 3.5.21.</p></li>
<li><p>Removed support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.8 as it is beyond the <a href="https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata#RHEL8_and_9_Life_Cycle">Red
Hat support
window</a>.</p></li>
<li><p>Removed support for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS as it has reached the end of <a href="https://ubuntu.com/about/release-cycle#ubuntu-kernel-release-cycle">standard
security maintenance in May
2025</a>.</p></li>
<li><p>Upgraded <code>ansible-core</code> to 2.16.4 to support Python 3.12.</p></li>
<li><p>Increased the RSA key size for Cluster API certifications to 4096 bits for
improved security.</p></li>
</ul>
