New Feature
PGVECTOR extension for PostgreSQL
PDS now supports the PGVECTOR
extension to PostgreSQL. This extension is designed to enhance database functionality by enabling efficient vector operations directly within your PostgreSQL environment.
The PGVECTOR
extension does not require configuration via the shared_preload_libraries
. This means, you can use it directly without any additional setup in the PostgreSQL configuration file. This simplifies the process of integrating and utilizing the PGVECTOR
capabilities in your existing database systems.
For more information about using the shared_preload_libraries
parameter, refer to the updated list of supported configuration parameters for PostgreSQL.

- ZooKeeper: 3.8.3, 3.9.1
TLS support for MongoDB Enterprise
PDS now supports Transport Layer Security (TLS) for MongoDB Enterprise. This enhancement ensures secure communication for MongoDB instances within the PDS environment.
The implementation involves changes to the cert-manager Helm chart to generate combined PEM files, which MongoDB uses for TLS. Run the following command to upgrade or install cert-manager with version v1.11.0 and to enable the feature gate AdditionalCertificateOutputFormats
, which results in cert-manager generating combined PEM files for MongoDB TLS:
helm upgrade --install \
cert-manager jetstack/cert-manager \
--namespace cert-manager \
--create-namespace \
--version v1.11.0 \
--set installCRDs=true \
--set featureGates="AdditionalCertificateOutputFormats=true" --set webhook.extraArgs={--feature-gates="AdditionalCertificateOutputFormats=true"}
where:
- helm upgrade --install: Helm command to upgrade or install a chart. It ensures that the specified release is created if it doesn't exist or upgraded if it already does.
- cert-manager: Name of the Helm release, which is a named instance of a chart.
- jetstack/cert-manager: Specifies the Helm chart repository and the chart name to be installed or upgraded. In this case, it's using the cert-manager chart from the Jetstack repository.
- --namespace cert-manager: Sets the Kubernetes namespace for the cert-manager installation to
cert-manager
. - --create-namespace: Instructs Helm to create the specified namespace if it doesn't already exist.
- --version v1.11.0: Specifies the version of the cert-manager chart to be installed or upgraded. In this case, it's version 1.11.0.
- --set installCRDs=true: Sets a Helm value to true, indicating that custom resource definitions (CRDs) should be installed. cert-manager uses CRDs to define its custom resources.
- --set featureGates="AdditionalCertificateOutputFormats=true": Sets a Helm value related to feature gates. It enables the
AdditionalCertificateOutputFormats
feature gate, which is a feature in cert-manager for generating combined PEM files. - --set webhook.extraArgs={--feature-gates="AdditionalCertificateOutputFormats=true"}: Sets additional extra arguments for the cert-manager webhook, specifically enabling the
AdditionalCertificateOutputFormats
feature gate.

Release 120; Build 1070
August 28, 2023
New Features
One-click restore
From this release, PDS enables you to easily restore your data and system configuration from a previously saved backup. See the Restore a backup section to learn how to restore the state of your database to a specific point in time, minimizing data loss and reducing downtime.
Copilot
Copilot, in PDS, is an AI-powered tool that helps you to interact with databases using natural language queries instead of writing complex SQL queries. Copilot understands and interprets natural language inputs and translates them into appropriate database queries. This simplifies the process of querying databases and eliminates the need for you to have in-depth knowledge of database systems.
See the Copilot section to learn how you can interact with it.
New data service version
PDS now supports the Couchbase data service version 7.2.0. See the Couchbase data service supported versions.
Known issues
Issue Number | Issue Description |
---|---|
DS-6064 | Copilot queries may not be scoped to the deployment where the chat occurs. For example, you can access any MySQL data service deployment and inquire about PostgreSQL or non-MySQL questions, and Copilot will still answer to such queries. |
DS-6079 | Scaling out the deployed data services failed while a backup and minimal workload were running. Workaround: Wait until the backup job completes, and then try scaling out the deployment. |
DS-6109 | In situations where a deployment involves a disconnected target cluster, the process of deleting backup jobs via the UI results in the removal of these jobs only from the source location. To delete the backup jobs completely, you should establish access to the target cluster and delete them manually. |
Release 119; Build 1057
July 12, 2023
Improvement
PDS has improved the way it handles real-time deployment events, which are retained for a week instead of 60 minutes. This will help with analysis and troubleshooting of data service deployment issues. See View deployment health for more information.
Known issues
Issue Number | Issue Description |
---|---|
DS-5771 | DNS records may take time to propagate. If you attempt to connect to the service before the DNS records are resolvable, your system may cache the empty value. Workaround: If this happens, clear your DNS cache or wait for the cache to expire (typically a few minutes). |
DS-5777 | If any FailedScheduling or FailedMount events occur more than eight minutes after the deployment begins, then the deployment is marked as Failed.The system will attempt to auto-heal and the status may return to Normal once all pods are deployed. |
DS-5785 | When all Redis master nodes are simultaneously shutdown, the cluster can fail to come back up, with pods crashlooping. To fix this issue, manually delete the crashlooping pods. |
Release 118; Build 1052
June 08, 2023
New Feature
The Deployment details page now includes the Last seen information, which helps you determine when PDS was last able to successfully retrieve the status of the data service. This information can assist you in troubleshooting the issue and restoring the disconnected data service. For more information, see Deployment dashboard.
Improvement
PDS has improved the way it manages default users. For most data services, PDS now creates additional users beyond the default pds
user. For more information about the users created by PDS for each data service and their corresponding permissions, see PDS users and permissions.
Known issues
Issue Number | Issue Description |
---|---|
DS-5570 | By clicking Enable advanced settings in the Edit Deployment window, you are able to select any version or build for a data service. Downgrading to an older version or build is not supported and may lead to failure and/or data loss. |

Improvement
The Portworx CSI provisioner is used as a default provisioner for Prometheus volumes in new PDS installations. The Portworx in-tree provisioner is deprecated and its support may be discontinued in future PDS releases.
Known issues
Issue Number | Issue Description |
---|---|
DS-4579 | When you deploy Couchbase on RKE2 and upgrade from previous image, the Failed to pull and unpack image error message appears. This issue occurs, because the containerd versions older than 1.6.10 had issues deflating images with extended attributes.Workaround: Couchbase on RKE2 requires the containerd version 1.6.10 or newer. |
DS-4612 | When you click a dropdown menu (Backup, Target, and so on) in the Deploy <data-service> and Edit Deployment windows, you cannot pull the scroll bar down to select the menu items. Workaround: Use the down arrow on the keyboard, the wheel button on mouse, or any peripheral devices to scroll down and select the dropdown menu items. |
DS-4700 | When you reboot any of the Couchbase pods, the nodes are restored. However, you will see unhealthy error messages in the pod logs. These messages are harmless and would not affect the actual data traffic. |
DS-4727 | In a multi-node target cluster, if the node that is hosting the pds-operator-target-controller-manager pod goes down, then there will be an expected downtime of 5 minutes between PDS control plane and target cluster. During this time, the target cluster would become disconnected from the PDS control plane and all the data services on this target cluster will be inaccessible from PDS UI.Workaround: Wait for five minutes until the target cluster is reconnected. Once it is connected, you can access all the relevant data services from PDS UI. |
Release 113; Build - 1025
January 26, 2023
New Features
Availability of new data services
This release includes the following new data services:
- Consul
- Couchbase
- Elasticsearch
- MongoDB Enterprise
Before deploying Elasticsearch, you must configure the virtual memory limit of Elasticsearch to 262144 or higher on each Kubernetes node of the target cluster. For more information, see Configure Elasticsearch memory.
For MongoDB Enterprise and Elasticsearch, the automatically created PDS user does not have general Administrator privileges. It only has permission to create other users.
See the supported versions for MongoDB Enterprise and Elasticsearch data services..
Ability to add any users
The PDS administrator can now add users without a valid Portworx account to an existing PDS account. For more information about adding users, see Add users.
Deprecation announcement
From this release, support for the following legacy Portworx installations is deprecated:
- Portworx with CSI driver disabled: By default, the CSI driver will be enabled on new Portworx installations. On the older Portworx installations, you can enable the CSI driver.
- DaemonSet installation: PDS is compatible with the Portworx Operator installation. You can migrate the existing Portworx installed from a DaemonSet to the Operator.
Currently, Portworx provides technical support for the above mentioned legacy Portworx installations. This support may not be available in the future PDS releases.
Known issues
Issue Number | Issue Description |
---|---|
DS-2371 | If you deploy a single-node Redis cluster, then you cannot modify the node count in the Edit Redis Deployment -> Number of nodes dropdown. |
DS-3265 | When you backup a Redis cluster, the backup job runs just on one container. So, PDS backs up only a part of the data. To perform a full backup, you can update the backup operator or use a new version to run backup jobs on each Redis container. However, updating the backup operator is not backward compatible since the operator runs backup script on each Redis container and it causes race condition on old containers that makes backup to fail. Workaround: To backup Redis data service without issues, use the new Redis image. |
DS-4014 | In most of the MySQL cluster deployments, the DNS host is taking more than 30 minutes to become available. Workaround: Sometimes, this issue occurs due to the slow propagation of DNS records from AWS Route 53 to clients. You must wait for the public DNS caches to clear. |
DS-4236 | PDS UI does not properly report the long running MySQL backups. Workaround: To get up-to-date report, check the backup.backups.pds.io and backupjobs.backups.pds.io resources in your Kubernetes target cluster. |
DS-4356 | Existing backup targets go out of sync after some time, after being successfully synchronized to some EKS target clusters. Workaround: Create a new backup target and check if the sync is successful. |

December 08, 2022
New Features
New data service versions
This release includes the following new data service versions:
-
MySQL: 8.0.31
-
Redis: 7.0.5
Known issues
Issue Number | Issue Description |
---|---|
DS-3792 | When all nodes in your MySQL cluster crash with OutOfMemory error due to high load, the MySQL cluster could fail to restart due to diverged GTIDs.Workaround: To learn more about this issue and for troubleshooting instructions, see the Advanced data recovery topic. |
DS-3803 | Data service endpoints are not reachable in the OCP 4.11 cluster. This issue occurs, if the external-dns change request is longer than 32000 characters.Workaround: In the external-dns deployment spec, reduce the batch size for external-dns (for example, 100) by updating the aws-batch-change-size flag. |
DS-3818 | You cannot backup a data service, while workload is in progress. This issue occurs when there are no available resources for backup process. For example, if a database is serving heavy workload consuming all available resources, the backup attempt may fail. Workaround: You can restrict the workload inside a database to run with limited resources to provide the background processes (for example, backup) enough resources to run. Alternatively, you can retry backup when the database is slightly less busy in consuming resorces. |
DS-3825 | Sometimes, even though the data service backup is completed successfully, the backup job indicator displays red. Workaround: Delete the data service backup, and perform the backup job again. |
DS-3838 | PDS allows new database deployments to namespaces that are in the terminating state, even though such deployments always fail. Workaround: Run the following command to check if the deployment's database is in the terminating state: kubectl get namespaces If the database is in the terminating state, then:
Or Do not deploy into a namespace that is in the terminating state. |
DS-3874 | If you create a Kubernetes cluster without installing Portworx, and register the created cluster to control plane, then the cluster gets added as Unhealthy. When you remove the Unhealthy cluster from the UI, it is removed successfully. However, a new entry for the same cluster is populated, which gets stuck in the Initializing phase. Workaround: Before removing the Unhealthy cluster from the UI, you must uninstall the PDS Helm chart: helm uninstall -n pds-system pds |

DS-2078 | When multiple PDS data services are deployed on the Portworx cluster, deployments may fail due to a lack of free space on Portworx volumes. The filesystem enters read-only mode when the storage reaches 90% of its capacity, and it may be unavailable if some Portworx node pools go offline. As PDS deployments depend on Portworx volumes, ensure that Portworx clusters are running without errors to avoid a data service deployment failure. |

Workaround: Force drop: Use DROP DATABASE <database-name> WITH (FORCE); instead of DROP DATABASE <database-name>; . It may fail if the database user does not have permissions to terminate existing database connections.Exclude database from metrics collection: You can temporarily or permanently exclude a database from metrics collection which will not allow the postgresql exporter to connect to the database:
