Release 5.5.0 (2025-07-18)

Release Highlights

• SRE users have now write privileges on /mnt/scratch, when using SRDs that support temporary storage.
• It is now possible to set up the size of Nexus persistent directory in the configuration file. And the default value has been increased from 2Gb to 10Gb.
• User services, like Gitea and HedgeDoc, sometimes change their IP address on restart, which makes them unavailable due to DNS issues. We have now a Container App Job that monitors this problem and fix it when happens.
• Documentation updates on clipboard control limitations and data egress instructions.

Upgrading from 5.4.1

Run the following command to upgrade an existing SRE:

dsh deploy sre YOURSRENAME

Changing the size of Nexus' persistent directory and running a Job for fixing container DNS will likely have an impact on the cost of running an SRE. Please use the configuration file to ensure your costs are within your budget.
