• As part of the ElasticSearch v6 upgrade:
  • uploaded ElasticSearch 6.5.4 packages to reprepro [1]
  • Adapted the ElasticSearch puppet module [2]
  • Tested that we can run multiple ElasticSearch clusters on same hardware [3]
• We discovered that the Maven Wrapper does not support XDG_CACHE_HOME, so we updated java8: to actually use the new image; fixing the mvn wrapper cache issue [4]
• Upon unpacking the Greek analysis chain, we found that the filter isn't properly handling language-specific lowercasing in language analyzers; fixed it by adding Greek empty-token filter and keep lang-specific lowercasing [5]
• As part of the lang-specific lowercasing, we also upgraded the ICU normalization (more info) [6]
• We decided we should use a better/cleaner approach for icinga elasticsearch check and merged http and https elasticsearch icinga checks into one [7]
• We also updated the alerts for mjolnir daemons, so we can tell when it starts misbehaving [8]
