This commit changes the default out-of-the-box configuration for the
number of shards from five to one. We think this will help address a
common problem of oversharding. For users with time-based indices that
need a different default, this can be managed with index templates. For
users with non-time-based indices that find they need to re-shard with
the split API in place they no longer need to resort only to
reindexing.
Since this has the impact of changing the default number of shards used
in REST tests, we want to ensure that we still have coverage for issues
that could arise from multiple shards. As such, we randomize (rarely)
the default number of shards in REST tests to two. This is managed via a
global index template. However, some tests check the templates that are
in the cluster state during the test. Since this template is randomly
there, we need a way for tests to skip adding the template used to set
the number of shards to two. For this we add the default_shards feature
skip. To avoid having to write our docs in a complicated way because
sometimes they might be behind one shard, and sometimes they might be
behind two shards we apply the default_shards feature skip to all docs
tests. That is, these tests will always run with the default number of
shards (one).
Modifies the SQL tests to use the new `Request` object flavored methods
introduced onto the `RestClient` in #29623. We'd like to remove the old
methods eventually so we should stop using them.
Tweak the return data, in particular with regards for ODBC columns to
better align with the spec
Fix order for SYS TYPES and TABLES according to the JDBC/ODBC spec
Fix#30386Fix#30521
QA tests that use security need to use a trial license instead of a
basic license. Basic licenses do not enable security so these tests are
not running in the expected configuration. This can also lead to issues
that seem completely unrelated such as authentication failures right
after cluster formation.
The authentication failure right after cluster formation happens since
a request makes it past the authentication license checks and the
request starts the authentication process. During authentication the
cluster forms and the license is updated to a basic license, which
disables all realms. The request that is being authenticated then tries
to iterate over the realms, but the realms are empty and the request
cannot be authenticated. This results in a authentication failure even
though the credentials provided are correct.
Closes#30306
When dealing with filtering, a composite aggregation might return empty
buckets (which have been filtered) which gets sent as is to the client.
Unfortunately this interprets the response as no more data instead of
retrying.
This now has changed and the listener keeps retrying until either the
query has ended or data passes the filter.
Fix#30292
We had a number of awaitsFix links that weren't updated after the xpack
merge.
Where possible I changed the links to the new locations, but in some
circumstances the original ticket was closed (suggesting the awaitsfix
should be removed) or was otherwise unclear the status.
This commit makes x-pack a module and adds it to the default
distrubtion. It also creates distributions for zip, tar, deb and rpm
which contain only oss code.
