Support for Instant Recovery of PVC data to guest Kubernetes clusters using the vSphere Cloud Native Storage CSI has been deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Standard restore of local or exported Kasten restore points will remain unaffected.
The k10restore Helm chart and k10restore OpenShift operands were deprecated in 8.0 release and will be removed in 8.5. See Veeam Kasten Disaster Recovery for details on alternate options to recover Veeam Kasten.

Other Notes

Added instructions for cleaning up Custom Resource Definitions after uninstalling Kasten via Helm.

8.0.8

Release Date: 2025-09-05

New Features

Added Helm flags global.resourceLabels and global.ephemeralResourceLabels. Use global.resourceLabels to specify labels on all Kasten PVCs, Network Policies, Services, and Pods, and global.ephemeralResourceLabels to specify labels only on ephemeral Kasten PVCs, Network Policies, Services, and Pods.
Veeam Kasten Disaster Recovery restore timeout can be configured using kastenDisasterRecovery.restoreTimeoutMinutes Helm value to avoid timeout.
Added support for Kubernetes 1.33.
Made prometheus.server.resources and prometheus.configmapReload.prometheus.resources respect the global.resources settings if defined. Prometheus-specific overrides still take precedence over global values.

Bug Fixes

Resolved an issue with error propagation in the Veeam Kasten Disaster Recovery restore workflow to ensure errors are properly returned when timeout occurs.
Fixed kubectl server side dry run support for Kasten resources.
Fixed merging of Helm global.resources values for individual container requests and limits. This prevents the possibility of referencing non-existent configuration keys and subsequent CreateContainerConfigError errors.

Release Summary

Veeam Kasten for Kubernetes v8.0 continues Veeam's leadership in Kubernetes data protection by introducing new and enhanced capabilities related to operations management, security, and modern virtualization workloads, including:

Expanded Veeam Backup & Replication Compatibility: Support for exporting to VBR repositories has been expanded to all clusters where storage provisioners support block mode export, and includes support for exporting KubeVirt volumes.
Virtual Machines Dashboard: New dashboard page to provide visibility into KubeVirt-based workloads and dependent resources across the cluster.
Restore Point Dashboard: New dashboard page to simplify management of available restore points and initiate restore operations.
Policies Dashboard: Redesigned dashboard page to improve policy management at scale with new table-based view, expanded search and filtering options, and new policy details view.
Self-Service Cluster Migrations: New Veeam Kasten validating admissions policies allow non-admin users to securely perform import and restore operations of existing backups on alternate clusters.
Reduced Privileges for Veeam Kasten Services: Minimized attack surface by adopting individual ServiceAccounts for each Veeam Kasten microservice and reducing permissions where possible.
ISO 27001 Certification: Veeam Kasten is now certified, ensuring industry-leading security and compliance for Kubernetes data protection.
Encryption Key Rotation: Veeam Kasten now supports the creation and simultaneous use of multiple passkeys to allow easy key rotation for exported data.
Expanded KDR Compatibility: Veeam Kasten Disaster Recovery (KDR) improves compatibility and resilience for environments with limited snapshot capabilities.
Multi-Architecture Support: Veeam Kasten now supports deployment to Kubernetes clusters using either 64-bit ARM or POWER CPU architectures, in addition to existing x86_64 CPU support.

New Features

Added helm flag to enable installation of Validating Admission Policy which enforces permissions during Kasten policy creation for non-admin users.
Added support for Import actions for application-scoped policies created by non-admin users.
The Multi-Cluster Distributions UI has been updated to a table view and a multi-step form for creating distribution resources.
Added support for the use of multiple, active passkeys.
Added support for OpenShift 4.18.
The Policies page has been updated for additional clarity and visual consistency. A list of all policies in a namespace can now be viewed, filtered, and sorted in a table.
A Policy view page has been introduced to provide a detailed view of the policy and its status.

Security Issues

Updated base image used to build Veeam Kasten container images to pull in latest security updates.

Known Issues

Fixed issue with multicluster global policies where after distributing, the imageRepoProfile.namespace field in backupParameters is incorrect.
Environments where Veeam Kasten is installed using the kubernetes.io/portworx-volume in-tree Portworx storage provisioner do not currently support the new default Veeam Kasten Disaster Recovery (KDR) mode. Prior to upgrade, it is recommended that any applicable Veeam Kasten installation should explicitly disable Quick DR mode using Helm values.

Upgrade Notes

Kasten now uses deployment specific service accounts instead of the k10-k10 service account for a default helm install. Kasten continues to support using a customer provided service account name via the helm value serviceAccount.name.

NOTE: Customers who previously configured their Vault server for Kubernetes Auth with the k10-k10 service account must re-configure the Vault server with the crypto-svc service account before an upgrade.
Following upgrade to 8.0.0, any Veeam Kasten installations that do not explicitly set kastenDisasterRecovery.quickMode.enabled=false and have Veeam Kasten Disaster Recovery (KDR) enabled will now default to Quick DR with local catalog snapshot. This mode is recommended for all installations where Veeam Kasten has been deployed to storage that supports both the ability to create and to restore from local snapshots. See documentation for details on alternate configurations.
Upgrading to this version changes the manner in which passkeys are handled. Performing a KDR backup is recommended prior to upgrading.

5.5.0

Release Date: 2022-11-04

Release Summary

With this release, Kasten by Veeam scales the simplicity of operations to bridge the Kubernetes skills gap with powerful capabilities, including autonomous operations and cloud-native expansion.

Kasten K10 adds capabilities for autonomous operations & decisions, that simplify data protection at scale:

Backup Windows: Kasten K10 will automatically start/stop backup operations based on configured, per policy, off-peak hours.
Job Staggering: Kasten K10 will not only honor the backup windows but will further automate the sequencing of the underlying backup jobs, thereby optimizing the utilization of the infrastructure resources.
Policy Presets: Operations teams can define multiple protection policies that specify parameters such as backup frequency and location, which can then be re-used by application teams. This ensures the separation of concerns while scaling operations in a cloud-native environment.

Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization: OpenShift Virtualization enables you to run and manage Virtual Machine (VM) and container workloads side-by-side on Red Hat OpenShift. Kasten K10 now adds support for those VM workloads.

GitOps Pipeline Integration: Defining your application and configuration as code and enabling feature velocity with CI/CD is one of the key benefits provided by GitOps. Kasten K10 can now integrate into GitOps workflows to backup applications right before a new automated release.

IPv6 Support: IP address exhaustion is a here-and-now issue that organizations using IPv4 face. Kasten K10 addresses this issue by operating in IPv6 environments such as Amazon EKS.

VMware Tanzu: Kasten K10 now also supports NFS as a storage target in block mode for these environments.

Azure Managed Identity: Kasten K10 further simplifies security with support for Azure Managed Identities. You can now authenticate with any resource that supports Azure Active Directory authentication.

New Features

Use an existing passphrase stored inside a Vault instance when enabling a K10 Disaster Recovery profile.
K10 now supports backup/restore and migration of OpenShift Virtualization Virtual Machines.

Fixed an issue that could duplicate storage class artifact in RestorePoint and cause ExportAction to fail.

Security Issues

Update Go to pull in latest security fixes.
Update K10 services base image to pull in latest security updates.

Upgrade Notes

This release will perform a catalog schema upgrade to add label indexes that support label filtering.

Other Notes

Kanister release 0.60.0 introduced some breaking changes to V2 blueprints that use kando to write and read data. Note that we removed the gzip command from the bash command since the stream is deduplicated/compressed during processing. Similarly, the corresponding gunzip command has been removed from the restore action. Due to this, the backups performed using V2 blueprints from Kanister releases 0.58.0 and 0.59.0 can no longer be restored using the newer blueprint. To restore such backups after upgrading to the latest blueprint, delete the blueprint before triggering the restore.

4.0.4

Release Date: 2021-06-08

New Features

Added policy detail to RunAction resource. Added counts of action status to RunAction details sub-resource.

Bug Fixes

Made blueprint creation idempotent to avoid failure stating that it already exists.
Fixes issue with policies that export cluster-scoped resources. The issue was introduced in K10 release 4.0.2.
Fixed an issue where the dashboard service would CrashLoopBackoff periodically if K10 was configured with a FileStore profile.
Fixed an issue where custom CA certificate ConfigMap was getting deleted after the backup.
Fixed an issue where Generic Volume Snapshot into an NFS FileStore location would fail if triggered on a workload with no PVCs.
Fixed issue with application scoped policies where migration token would unexpectedly get deleted.
Fixed Multi-Cluster issue where users without any bindings were able to view clusters as admins.
Fixed an issue that caused Generic Volume Snapshot and K10 Disaster Recovery operations to timeout when using NFS FileStore location profile.
The dashboard no longer displays error message banners after logout.
Fixed a problem where appended white space in filter fields was not being trimmed.

Security Issues

Update Ambassador to 1.13.6 to include latest security updates.
Update K10 services base image to pull in latest security updates.

Known Issues

An issue has been identified with policies that export cluster-scoped resources. The issue results in failure to export migration metadata and may prevent export of some or all applications selected by the policy. One workaround is to disable "Snapshot Cluster-Scoped Resources" in such policies and to perform a manual snapshot and export of cluster-scoped resources. This issue was introduced in K10 release 4.0.2.

4.0.3

Release Date: 2021-05-24

New Features

Add arm64 support (including Apple Silicon) for k10multicluster and k10tools.
Added support for immutable backups when exporting to a locked object store bucket.
Support for NFS FileStore profiles is now out of preview mode and available for production use.
Kanister-enabled applications can now be configured to use NFS FileStore profiles. Refer to this section for more details.

Bug Fixes

Readiness probe for the config service reporting ready before CRDs have been registered.
Fixed an issue with retirement of K10 Disaster Recovery restore points when using an NFS FileStore profile.
Fixes issue with policy-driven retirement of exported backups for policies that select multiple applications. Issue was introduced in K10 release 4.0.2.
Fixed an issue with filters during backup that lead to volume binding problems during restore.

Security Issues

Upgrade golang.org/x/net prevent denial of service (CVE-2021-33194).

4.0.2

Release Date: 2021-05-08

New Features

added detail sub-resource to run actions
Kafka topic backup and restore using Adobe Kafka Connect S3 is now supported.
Policies that protect multiple applications by creating and exporting snapshots as backups now create a separate ExportAction for each application. When each BackupAction completes an ExportAction for the application is started. BackupActions and ExportActions for different applications protected by the same policy may now run concurrently.

A successful ExportAction creates an exported RestorePoint and exports snapshot data if that option is set in the policy. If a BackupAction fails or is skipped, the ExportAction for that application is skipped with a corresponding reason.

Once all BackupActions and ExportActions complete, all successful ExportActions are pushed to the migration location together.

Pre-flight checks are able to distinguish unsupported vSphere TKGS clusters.

Bug Fixes

When editing a K10 disaster recovery policy, the policy form is limited to supported features.
Fixed a bug where editing policies with sub-hourly frequencies did not preserve sub-hourly frequency settings.
Fixed a bug where the dropdown on resource filter dialog sometimes would not register the click.
The Dashboard now correctly displays multiple exported restore points for the same application and scheduled time.

Security Issues

Update K10 services base image to pull in latest security updates.

Other Notes

Add Kubernetes 1.19 to the list of supported versions.

4.0.1

Release Date: 2021-04-27

Release Summary

With this latest release of Kasten K10, we have taken our focus on security and application protection to the next level to introduce a Kubernetes-native ransomware protection solution. This solution leverages immutable object storage backups, which will enable in a future release the ability to specify the retention period for backups. The retention setting ensures that the backed-up content cannot be altered during that time period. Automation via policies combines not only the actions you want to take (e.g., snapshots) but also the retention period for object immutability.

We have continued to make advancements to our multi-cluster operation so that operations can work at the speed of DevOps with secure self-service portals. Authorized users can now manage their own clusters, create backup policies for their own application namespaces and add secondary clusters directly through the multi-cluster manager for easy scalability.

Lastly, we also added support for NFS for migration and as a backup target in addition to object storage options.

Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue where K10 Disaster Recovery restore failed when using NFS FileStore profiles with custom path prefix.
Fixed an issue where in some cases CSI snapshots were failing due to invalid labels.

The K10 Multi-Cluster Manager is now generally available. K10 multi-cluster allows management of multiple Kubernetes clusters through a single dashboard. Using the k10multicluster tool, primary-secondary relationships may be created between K10 instances in different clusters. Once logged-in to a primary K10 instance and granted the correct authorization, users have access to the multi-cluster dashboard that contains aggregate metrics and action summaries of the all secondary clusters. In addition, the main dashboards of secondary instances may be accessed directly through the multi-cluster dashboard. K10 resources, specifically Policies and Profiles, may be synchronized from primaries to secondaries.

New Features

Fixed an issue where some export or import policy runs would fail after K10 Disaster Recovery.

Known Issues

The Kanister kando tool does not use multi-part uploads for Azure Blob storage. This impacts Kanister Blueprints that use Azure Blob profiles and when uploading objects larger than 256 MiB.
Retrying Policy edits may cause invalid Policies to skip validation and still be created. The workaround is to recreate the Policy.
Restore actions fail when restoring PVC's that use annotations to reference a StorageClass. The workaround is to use a transform to add a StorageClass during restore.
When restoring a generic storage backup of a PVC that was mounted in a container at a sub path, the sub path is ignored and data is restored in the new root of the restored PVC.

Deprecations

Removed support for OpenShift 4.2 and Kubernetes 1.13.

Other Notes

Reduce DeleteSnapshot scope for AWS IAM permissions.
Support for OpenShift 4.3 and Kubernetes 1.14 will be removed in an upcoming release.
Kanister Blueprints that implement the backup action must return at least one output artifact if they want K10 to invoke a delete action upon restore point retirement.

2.5.16

Bug Fixes

Fixed a Dashboard bug where the retry of a backup action omitted profile info and resulted in failed actions.
Fixed issue where restore from a generic-volume-snapshot could result in multiple PVC restore processes.
Fixed an issue where an application creation via the OpenShift console fails when Kanister sidecar injection feature is enabled.
Fixes issue where export action fails when policy selects no applications to snapshot.

Known Issues

ManagedFields in API objects are not preserved when taking backups. Introduced in Kubernetes 1.18.x (OpenShift 4.5.x), they track the actor in the system who last modified each field in an API object. They are used by server-side apply report conflicting patches to objects. Since these are omitted by K10, executing server-side apply after an application is restored may result in different behavior than before restore.
Sidecar injection for generic volume snapshots is not supported in Kubernetes 1.18+ or OpenShift 4.5+. Do not use the helm value injectKanisterSidecar.enabled=true on these versions.
When K10 is deployed with the helm option auth.tokenAuth.enabled set to true, and when OAuth proxy is used for authentication, the OAuth proxy session is not cleared when the user signs out of the dashboard.
PersistentVolumes provisioned by K10 on vSphere do not get removed when they are released.

2.5.15

Dashboard now shows DR restore progress and displays suggested actions with failure messages.
When OIDC based authentication is enabled, if K10 is not able to get the user's information from the OIDC token, it will use the provider's userinfo endpoint to get it.

Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue where an injected Kanister sidecar was failing on OpenShift due to a root SecurityContext. An injected Kanister sidecar's SecurityContext is copied from the primary container.
If configured authentication method is basic, ignore any authentication cookie in requests.

Other Notes

Document how to run Prometheus with a specific user and group ID.

2.5.14

Release Date: 2020-07-06
