v1.14 Pending Release Notes

Breaking Changes

The removal of CSI_ENABLE_READ_AFFINITY option and its replacement with per-cluster read affinity setting in cephCluster CR (CSIDriverOptions section) in PR
updating netNamespaceFilePath for all clusterIDs in rook-ceph-csi-config configMap in PR
- Issue: The netNamespaceFilePath isn't updated in the CSI config map for all the clusterIDs when CSI_ENABLE_HOST_NETWORK is set to false in operator.yaml
- Impact: This results in the unintended network configurations, with pods using the host networking instead of pod networking.
Rook is beginning the process of deprecating holder pods. This is especially important for Multus users. Helm chart users should take care to set the new config disableHolderPods: false if they are using Multus and still using the rook-ceph chart's default values.yaml. Special upgrade docs for multus can be found here.

Kubernetes versions v1.25 through v1.29 are supported.
