Important considerations for this release
Upgrading Addons from the previous minor version of anka is recommended but not required.
For more details, take a look at our pre-upgrade considerations.

Bug Fix: anka cp and anka run hang when executing + ankactl: communication error: Operation timed out errors after resuming VMs (addons upgrade required).
Bug Fix: When two pulls are happening on the same machine for the same template and tag, it can sometimes cause a failure with anka: no such version.
Bug Fix: Rarely anka registry pull would become stuck.
Bug Fix: When the machine’s disk was full, anka registry pull would report 100%/successfully pulled.
Bug Fix: The Anka uninstaller was deleting the controller package installed on the same machine.
Bug Fix: anka registry pull speed limitations fixed/removed.
Bug Fix: anka registry pull can fail with could not create disk image, status 74. and then subsequent pulls immediately show 100%. This results in a broken VM.

2.5.4 (2.5.4.138) - Dec 27th, 2021

Important considerations for this release
Upgrading Addons from the previous minor version of anka is recommended but not required.
Suspended VMs created in previous minor versions of anka are not compatible and will need to be force stopped (anka stop --force), started, and then re-suspended post-upgrade.
For more details, take a look at our pre-upgrade considerations.

Bug Fix: Automatic creation of anka image storage directories was not happening for config defaults and caused the agent to be unable to create VMs.

2.5.4 (2.5.4.136) - Dec 10th, 2021

Important considerations for this release
Upgrading Addons from the previous minor version of anka is recommended but not required.
Suspended VMs created in previous minor versions of anka are not compatible and will need to be force stopped (anka stop --force), started, and then re-suspended post-upgrade.
Avoid upgrading to this version on nodes with running VMs.
For more details, take a look at our pre-upgrade considerations.

Bug Fix: anka list was not sorted by name.
Bug Fix: Race condition throws “not found” when anka clone and anka delete happen at the same time.
Bug Fix: VMs created with the name “11.6” throw a failure.
Bug Fix: Anka registry list command fails with key values mismatch when using self signed certs.
Bug Fix: Machine readable stop_date is in a bad format for parsing (causing day out of range)
Bug Fix: Machine readable status differ between list and show commands.
Bug Fix: anka create suddenly throwing hdiutil: attach failed - Resource busy error.
Bug Fix: anka license show -k {license} doesn’t display proper host based license information.
Bug Fix: Unable to use change_res binary on Big Sur, Monterey, and PG enabled VM templates.
Bug Fix: On machine boot, anka_agent is running and executing anka list which triggers creation of *_lib directories. This was causing network mounts (which happen after the agent runs) to try using the same location, failing to because they already exist, and instead mounting with a different name. This caused anka list to be empty after a reboot. We removed the creation on anka list which will give enough time for network mounts to claim the path.
Bug Fix: The anka uninstaller script was removing a locally installed controller package.
Improvement: Monterey VM creation will automatically set ablk as the disk controller (virtio-blk not supported currently).
Improvement: Support for 32 core machines.
Improvement: We now check the registry status/availability before creating a local tag. This should prevent situations where a local tag was created prematurely and then blocked subsequent commands (requiring either a manual deletion of the local tag, or a force push).
New Feature: You can now find the last used date/time of a VM/Template using the access_date key/value.
This release includes support for 12.1 beta.

2.5.3 (2.5.3.135) - Sep 23rd, 2021

Suspended VMs in 2.4.X are not compatible and will need to be force stopped (anka stop –force), started, and then re-suspended post-upgrade.

Upgrading Addons from the previous version of anka is recommended.

Avoid upgrading the anka package to 2.5.X on nodes with VMs running.

Bug Fix: Apple’s automatic software update/download is enabled for newly created VMs. This was causing a problem where the new macOS version installer .app was being downloaded each time a VM was started.
Bug Fix: VMs randomly crashing with failed to get pid: Socket is not connected
Bug Fix: anka config default_passwd returning 245 exit code
Bug Fix: VM suspension logic was producing stopping VMs
Bug Fix: Date strings in anka list have overflow in minutes and seconds fields

Known issues we’re working on fixes for:

2.5.2 (2.5.2.133) - Sep 13th, 2021

Upgrading Addons from the previous version of anka is not necessary. We do however recommend upgrading addons if you’re on a previous minor or major version of the CLI.

Upgrading Addons from the previous version is recommended. Suspended VMs on 2.4.X seem to be problematic when starting on 2.5.X.

10.14.X does not contain the necessary Apple APIs to work with 2.5.X of Anka. You will need to upgrade macOS for your hosts to use 2.5.X.

Bug Fix: Inability to run more than one VM on AWS EC2 Mac

Improvement: anka create can now be done in multiple stages so MDM can target the VM to apply profiles on creation | Documentation

sudo anka view or anka view as root seems to have stopped working.
anka list -f ram shows human readable values instead of bytes
anka start -u does not work on Mojave hosts

New feature: anka config now contains delete_logs which, if set to False, will keep /Library/Logs/Anka/{UUID}.log files around even after deletion of the VM

2.4.0 (2.4.0.129) - Mar 31st, 2021

Upgrading Addons from the previous version is necessary

Bug Fix: Anka run suddenly throws -anka: communication timeout
Bug Fix: When /var/tmp/ankafs.0 is created as one user, and another user in the VM tries to use it, it fails with Permission Denied
Bug Fix: ENVs passing into the VM using anka run --env throw -anka: communication timeout
Bug Fix: RealVNC client crash

Known issue: 11.2 no longer supports the deprecated FUSE drivers. This could impact packer versions <= 1.6.1. Packer version 1.7.0 will support anka cp instead.

Known issue: anet network card does not work for Big Sur VMs. You need to switch to anka modify {vmName} set network-card -c virtio-net
