TiDB Operator 1.0 GA Release Notes

Release date: July 30, 2019

TiDB Operator version: 1.0.0

v1.0.0 What's New

Action Required

• ACTION REQUIRED: tikv.storeLabels was removed from values.yaml. You can directly set it with location-labels in pd.config.
• ACTION REQUIRED: the --features flag of tidb-scheduler has been updated to the key={true,false} format. You can enable the feature by appending =true.
• ACTION REQUIRED: you need to change the configurations in values.yaml of previous chart releases to the new values.yaml of the new chart. Otherwise, the configurations will be ignored when upgrading the TiDB cluster with the new chart.
