New Software Features in Cisco iNode Manager 23.1


Feature	Description
Infrastructure Enhancements
Inode-service-manager pod auto restart	In iNode Manager 23.1, the validity of certificate is auto-renewed. In iNode Manager 22.4, user needs to manually restart the inode-service-manager pod to renew the certificate validity for another 11 months. In iNode Manager 23.1, the process of restarting the inode-service-manager pod is automatically done. Auto renewal period is 270 days. Inode-service-manager log file will be added with a log entry “Restarting inode-service-manager POD to auto-renew the certificate” whenever auto-renewal happens.
Certificate Signing Requests	You can initiate the TLS Certificate creation process from Operations Hub. Once a certificate request is completed, you can download it and get it signed by an appropriate signing authority. Once signed, you can upload the certificate and override the default self-signed Ingress Certificate.
LDAP Connectivity checks	When adding an LDAP configuration, you can perform a connectivity check and verify end-to-end LDAP connectivity. You need valid user credentials along with LDAP configuration, to perform the connectivity check. If you trigger Validate LDAP Configuration and if there is LDAP connectivity failure, then an error message with the reason of failure is displayed
K8 Version	K8 version is upgraded to 1.22.
Single NIC for NB and SB communication for AIOs	By default, All-in-one clusters are deployed with two vNICs. One vNIC must be logically connected to a management network, while the other must be logically connected to the CIN. If you have a shared management and CIN network, you can optionally deploy an AIO cluster with a single vNIC.
Path Based URL Enhancements	Deployer VM supports path-based URL. iNode manager only needs two DNS entries as a prerequisite for installation. - cluster.example.com (DNS entry for Cluster) - deployer.example.com (DNS entry for Deployer)
