Previous change logs can be found at CHANGELOG-3.4.

v3.5.0 (TBD 2018-12)

See code changes and v3.5 upgrade guide for any breaking changes. Again, before running upgrades from any previous release, please make sure to read change logs below and v3.5 upgrade guide.

Breaking Changes

• gRPC gateway only supports /v3 endpoint.
  • Deprecated /v3beta.
  • curl -L http://localhost:2379/v3beta/kv/put -X POST -d '{"key": "Zm9v", "value": "YmFy"}' does work in v3.5. Use curl -L http://localhost:2379/v3/kv/put -X POST -d '{"key": "Zm9v", "value": "YmFy"}' instead.
• etcd --log-output flag has been deprecated. Use etcd --log-outputs instead.
• etcd --logger=zap --log-outputs=stderr is now the default.
• etcd --logger=capnslog flag has been deprecated.
• etcd --logger=zap --log-outputs=default flag value is not supported..
  • Instead, use etcd --logger=zap --log-outputs=stderr.
  • Or, use etcd --logger=zap --log-outputs=systemd/journal to send logs to the local systemd journal.
  • Previously, if etcd parent process ID (PPID) is 1 (e.g. run with systemd), etcd --logger=capnslog --log-outputs=default redirects server logs to local systemd journal. And if write to journald fails, it writes to os.Stderr as a fallback.
  • However, even with PPID 1, it can fail to dial systemd journal (e.g. run embedded etcd with Docker container). Then, every single log write will fail and fall back to os.Stderr, which is inefficient.
  • To avoid this problem, systemd journal logging must be configured manually.
• etcd --log-outputs=stderr is now the default.
• etcd --log-package-levels flag for capnslog has been deprecated. Now, etcd --logger=zap --log-outputs=stderr is the default.
• [CLIENT-URL]/config/local/log endpoint has been deprecated, as is etcd --log-package-levels flag.
  • curl http://127.0.0.1:2379/config/local/log -XPUT -d '{"Level":"DEBUG"}' won't work.
  • Please use etcd --logger=zap --log-outputs=stderr instead.
• Deprecated etcd_debugging_mvcc_db_total_size_in_bytes Prometheus metric. Instead, use etcd_mvcc_db_total_size_in_bytes.

Metrics, Monitoring

See List of metrics for all metrics per release.

Note that any etcd_debugging_* metrics are experimental and subject to change.

• Deprecated etcd_debugging_mvcc_db_total_size_in_bytes Prometheus metric. Instead, use etcd_mvcc_db_total_size_in_bytes.

gRPC gateway

• gRPC gateway only supports /v3 endpoint.
  • Deprecated /v3beta.
  • curl -L http://localhost:2379/v3beta/kv/put -X POST -d '{"key": "Zm9v", "value": "YmFy"}' does work in v3.5. Use curl -L http://localhost:2379/v3/kv/put -X POST -d '{"key": "Zm9v", "value": "YmFy"}' instead.
