BUCC v0.6.0

Breaking Changes:

Since Concourse 4.1 has completely changed it's authentication implementation,
there are some team configurations that can result in a failing upgrade.
Since BUCC does not configure multiple teams this will not affect you,
unless you created teams yourself, in which case please check the Concourse release notes

In general it is always recommended to do a bucc bbr backup before upgrading.

Mayor Improvments

• Switched to Xenial stemcell
• Upgraded to Concourse 4.1.
• The BOSH related processes are now using bpm
  for improved isolation.

Small Improvments:

• Added check if internet connection is available (thanks to @teancom)
• Added support for the uaa go cli (thanks to @drnic)
• Showing concourse on uaa homepage (thanks to @drnic)
• Added global --concourse-ca-certs flag for trusted ca certs (thanks to @fenech)
• Added ability to unset BUCC related environment variables with source <(bucc env --clean)

Fun Facts

• As of this release bucc uses a bucc deployed concourse for it's ci pipeline

BUCC v0.5.0

BBL (bosh-bootloader) Support

In this release initial support for BBL has been added, currently only AWS, GCP and Azure are supported.
By combining BUCC and BBL you will get the whole BUCC stack with loadbalancer and valid cloud-config.
So you can directly start deploying bosh releases with concourse.
Usage instructions can be found here.

Breaking: All bucc state dir related envrionment variables are now capitalized

In an effort to formalize the bucc state related enviorment variables we removed support for lowercase variables.
The following variables are supported going forward:

BUCC_PROJECT_ROOT: defaults to the bucc repo root
BUCC_STATE_ROOT: defaults to BUCC_PROJECT_ROOT/state
BUCC_VARS_FILE: defaults to BUCC_PROJECT_ROOT/vars.yml
BUCC_STATE_STORE: defaults to BUCC_STATE_ROOT/state.json
BUCC_VARS_STORE: defaults to BUCC_STATE_ROOT/creds.yml

Bug fixes:

• Fixed issue where concourse baggageclaim was using only fraction of available disk details.

Small improvments

• The BBL related refactoring also resulted in some performance improvements to the bucc-cli
• Added OpenStack --floating-ip flag (thanks @jyriok)
• Added global --concourse-lb flag
• Fix bucc ssh with arguments
• Fix example GCP zone (thanks @daniellavoie)

This makes bucc compatible with the bbl print-env output.

New variables in credhub

BUCC v0.4.0

BBR (BOSH Backup and Restore) support for Disaster Recovery

BUCC is now fully compatible with BBR.
As part of this feature full Disaster Recovery testing has been added to the BUCC ci pipeline.

To make a backup of you deployed BUCC vm, run:

bucc bbr backup

To recreate your environment from a backup run:

cd bucc
last_backup=$(find . -type d -regex ".+_.+Z" | sort -r | head -n1)
tar -xf ${last_backup}/bosh-0-bucc-creds.tar -C state
bucc up # clean BUCC with credentials (creds.yml) from backup
bucc bbr restore --artifact-path=${last_backup}

New variables in credhub

• concourse/main/concourse_tsa_host
• concourse/main/concourse_tsa_host_key
• concourse/main/concourse_worker_key

Bug fixes

• OpenStack --ntp flag now correctly sets bosh director ntp (thanks @nouseforaname)
• Using --cpi= now correctly sets cpi #76

Small improvments

• bucc will now install and manage bosh cli

BUCC v0.3.0

IMPORTANT Upgrade notice

Because of the following concourse upgrade restrictions:

If you are currently on a version older than v3.6.0, you must first upgrade to v3.6.0 before upgrading past it!

This means upgrading to BUCC v0.2.0 before upgrading past it!

New variables in credhub

• /concourse/main/bosh_cpi
• /concourse/main/bosh_stemcell
• /concourse/main/bosh_ssh_private_key
• /concourse/main/bosh_ssh_username

Bug fixes

• Fixed issue where flags where not used in some cases

Small improvments

• Added --root-disk-size flag for OpenStack (for when flavor has no ephemeral disk).
• Crehub cli will be upgraded if version is out of date

BUCC v0.2.0

PostgreSQL upgrade to v9.6.4

This is a hard requirement for Concourse v3.6.0.
The upgrade should be fully automatic and uses this release to migrate from bosh postgres to cloudfoundry postgres.

To make sure this upgrade works as expected we have added upgrade tests to the ci pipeline. These tests will verify we can upgrade from the latest stable release without losing data. We have seen it fail twice but verified no data was lost and a subsequent bucc up finished the migration in both cases.

So to upgrade just run:

cd bucc
git pull origin master
git checkout v0.2.0
bucc up
bucc up # when the first bucc up fails with pre-start postgres

Global proxy flag

For all the people using bucc behind a proxy there is now a flag for that:

echo "http_proxy: ${HTTP_PROXY}" >> vars.yml
echo "https_proxy: ${HTTP_PROXY}" >> vars.yml
echo "no_proxy: ${NO_RPOXY}" >> vars.yml
bucc up --proxy

Small improvements

• Added OpenStack flags: custom-ca, ignore-server-availability-zone, disk-az and trusted-certs
• Concourse is now configured with UAA authentication enabled #61
• Added --debug flag to bucc up which shows all arguments passed to bosh create-env
• Improved flag caching, also used flags are shown when doing bucc up
• Added --oauth-providers which allows configuring UAA oauth identity providers## Release updates:
