This fix provides for mitigation of a hang in the http(s) service. It reinstates the nginx service found in earlier releases. The use of the patch is required for production systems using the https service - typically Accelerator.
The patch prevents the use of the REST v3 API and the new web based Dashboard, which is dependent on the REST v3 API. A subsequent release will address this shortcoming. The use of nginx should be seen as temporary and a subsequent release is expected to provide integrated https within vovserver.
To start nginx, pass '-webprovider nginx' to ncmgr start, lmmgr start, etc. You should see vovnginxd start as one of the vov daemons.
'vovservermgr config' will also show the webprovider setting as being either 'internal' or 'nginx' depending on how you have configured the system. |

In the past, a stopped tasker and a newly started tasker were not aware of each other's NUMA usage, and so could assign CPU or Node affinity that overlaps.

Passing bash functions through snapprop is a fragile operation that only works when the following conditions hold:
1. The function must have been explicitly exported, for example export -f f.
2. The bash & sh shells must be the same on the submission & execution sides (this holds on CentOS 6-8 but not on Ubuntu).
3. The bash function encoding must be the same on the submission & execution sides (this depends on the bash version, CentOS 6,7 have the same encoding, but CentOS 8 has different encoding).
Aside: Bash encodes functions in two ways (subsequent to the 2014 shellshock vunerability):
(1) BASH_FUNC_<function-name>()=() (CentOS 6,7)
(2) BASH_FUNC_<function-name>%%=() (CentOS 8, MacOS, Ubuntu, albeit the latter does not satisfy 2. above) |

The handling of the resource parameter to vtk_flexlm_monitor has been improved. If the a resource name is specified then this name is the actual resource name used (in a previous release it was always prepended by License:). If a resource name is not specified, it defaults to License:<feature>. This is consistent with vtk_flexlm_monitor_all behavior. |

If the VovServer web interface is enabled by setting the web port, then under some high load conditions the web port interface can hang indefinitely. The incidence of this behavior is reduced if VovServer configuration parameter http.workerthreads is set to 40 in policy.tcl. The default is 5. In addition, a new "-webprovider nginx" option is added to the "ncmgr start" command to allow selection of the nginx web server, which is immune to the above problem. However, beware that choosing the nginx web server will suppress the REST v3 interface availability. |
