Release notes v25.2

January 27, 2025

Release v25.2 includes Zesty Disk Agent v6.9.1

Agent v6.9.1

The Agent release includes the following new features, enhancements, and bug fixes:

New features

The zestyctl verification command was added. Use this command on Linux instances to verify that the integrated AWS instance account has the necessary permissions to run Zesty Disk features.
For more information, see Verify permissions before deployment on Linux.

Enhancements

  • EZswitch on Linux instances was enhanced in the following ways:

    • When running EZswitch using zestyctl, volume snapshots are created by default. To skip snapshot creation, add the
      —-skip-snapshot flag.

    • When running EZswitch using zestyctl, the new verification command (see New features) runs by default to check if the environment supports EZswitch. To skip the verification, add the -–skip-verification flag.

    • For enhanced stability, to run EZswitch from the Zesty platform, you must have the latest Zesty Disk Agent installed. If you don’t see the EZswitch option from the platform, you may need to upgrade the Agent. To upgrade, reinstall the Agent as described in Install the Zesty Disk Agent on standalone instances.

  • For better troubleshooting, failure messages related to the start of EZswitch were made more specific.

Bug fixes

  • When running Zesty Disk on Windows, filesystems do not expand past 14 volumes.

  • When installing Zesty Disk on ZFS, an installation complete message is shown even though the installation has not completed.

  • In some cases, after rebooting a ZFS instance, Zesty Disk does not remount.

  • In very rare cases, Zesty Disk shrink operations cause the NFS service to hang.
