You can check the RPM versions you currently have installed, to see if they need to be updated, by entering:

apigee-all version

To update your installation, perform the following procedure on the Edge nodes:

  1. On all Edge nodes:

    1. Clean the Yum repos:
      sudo yum clean all
    2. Download the latest Edge 4.50.00 bootstrap_4.50.00.sh file to /tmp/bootstrap_4.50.00.sh:
      curl https://software.apigee.com/bootstrap_4.50.00.sh -o /tmp/bootstrap_4.50.00.sh
    3. Install the Edge 4.50.00 apigee-service utility and dependencies:
      sudo bash /tmp/bootstrap_4.50.00.sh apigeeuser=uName apigeepassword=pWord

      Where uName:pWord are the username and password you received from Apigee. If you omit pWord, you will be prompted to enter it.

    4. Update the apigee-setup utility:
      sudo /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service apigee-setup update
    5. Use the source command to execute the apigee-service.sh script:
      source /etc/profile.d/apigee-service.sh
  2. Update all Cassandra nodes:

    /opt/apigee/apigee-setup/bin/update.sh -c cs -f configFile

    where configFile specifies the configuration file that you used to install Apigee Edge for Private Cloud. For example, /opt/silent.conf.

  3. On all Edge nodes, execute the update.sh script for the edge process. To do this, execute the following command on each node:
    /opt/apigee/apigee-setup/bin/update.sh -c edge -f configFile
  4. Execute the update.sh script for the UI on all nodes. On each node, execute the following command:
    /opt/apigee/apigee-setup/bin/update.sh -c ui -f configFile
  5. Execute the update.sh script for SSO on all nodes. On each node, execute the following command:
    /opt/apigee/apigee-setup/bin/update.sh -c sso -f configFile
  6. If you are using Apigee mTLS, follow the procedure described in Upgrade Apigee mTLS.

Edge for Private Cloud was showing different behavior during deployment with override=true&delay=300.

This has been fixed.

163578296

The axstatus API was incorrectly reporting failure status for a fresh installation.

This has been fixed.

160955355

The UI Trace session did not match the trace session log: policies executed between two service callouts were missing.

Ldap policy connection pooling issue

LDAP connection pool properties specified using LDAP resource are not taking effect. As a result, connections are being opened and closed each time for single use, creating a large number of connections per hour to the LDAP server.

Workaround:

In order to change the LDAP connection pool properties, do the following steps to set a global change across all LDAP policies.

  1. Create a configuration properties file if it does not already exist:
    /opt/apigee/customer/application/message-processor.properties
  2. Add the following to the file (replace values of Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) properties based on your LDAP resource configuration requirement).
    bin_setenv_ext_jvm_opts="-Dcom.sun.jndi.ldap.connect.pool.maxsize=20
    -Dcom.sun.jndi.ldap.connect.pool.prefsize=2
    -Dcom.sun.jndi.ldap.connect.pool.initsize=2
    -Dcom.sun.jndi.ldap.connect.pool.timeout=120000
    -Dcom.sun.jndi.ldap.connect.pool.protocol=ssl"
  3. Make sure the file /opt/apigee/customer/application/message-processor.properties is owned by apigee:apigee.
  4. Restart each message processor.

To verify that your connection pool JNDI properties are taking effect, you can perform a tcpdump to observe the behavior of the LDAP connection pool over time.
