Bamboo

China (Beijing) region is now an opt-in feature

If you are using the China (Beijing) region, you need to opt-in again as outlined in Support for the AWS China partition – existing tasks are not affected at runtime, however, the China (Beijing) region is not offered in the region widget anymore by default, refer to Improved support for non standard AWS partitions for details.

Potential upgrade issue on remote agents

Bamboo might be unable to upgrade add-ons on running remote/elastic agents:

This long standing upstream issue had been resolved as of Bamboo 5.3. However, there seems to be a regression in Bamboo versions 5.6+, which expose a similar defect.

In case you are affected, this can usually be remedied by restarting the Bamboo server or disabling/reenabling the remote agent.

Please refer to our KB article Unable to execute task due to plugin not being installed for details.
