The installable version of CircleCI 2.8.0 includes the following fixes and improvements:

• An issue involving pre-allocated remote docker, machine VM creation, and other VM usage on AWS when the on-host VM option is selected has been fixed.

• An issue with the VM provider timing out when waiting for SSH to connect has been fixed. This upgrade supersedes any custom values for the Number of SSH attempts for starting VM setting and adds an equivalent field named Timeout for waiting for SSH to connect to VM(s) that you must set.

The installable version of CircleCI 2.6.0 includes the following fixes and improvements:

• It is now possible to create multiple Contexts in the Organization Settings of the CircleCI app. See the Contexts documentation for details and naming conventions.

The installable version of CircleCI 2.5.0 includes the following fixes and improvements:

• This release fixes a problem with DNS resolution failure on alpine-based containers. This problem was observed in the 2.3 release and was fixed for some service containers in 2.4. The 2.5 update fixes the issue for all service containers.
• This release includes improvements to scaling and garbage collection in the VM Service that should improve performance for installations with heavy use of machine executors or remote Docker.

The installable version of CircleCI 2.4.0 includes the following improvements and changes:

• Audit logging - This feature makes available a downloadable log of system events from the CircleCI Admin dashboard. This is the first release of audit logging; more events and improved data in the logs will be delivered in subsequent releases. Find detailed information about the data fields for each event in the Audit Logging section of the Security Features document.

• LDAP integration - It is possible to enable a new CircleCI installation to authenticate users with OpenLDAP or Active Directory credentials. New installations may be configured to have users authenticate through LDAP, including Active Directory support. Refer to the Authentication document for instructions.

• New build-agent - The new build-agent fixes some cases in which users were unable to log into a running job with SSH.

• VM Service improvements - Autoscaling of the VM Service has been improved, so machine executors should have more consistent performance at scale.

The installable version of CircleCI 2.2.0 includes the following improvements and changes:

• New visualization for Workflows - When you click on a workflow in the CircleCI application, a diagram appears with the relationship of your jobs to one another and the complete sequence of the workflow.
• Updates to the onboarding flow - We now show a new user only projects already building on CircleCI rather than a list of all projects found in source control. This change was made to prevent inadvertent adding of projects to CircleCI during the onboarding process. We also added a confirmation dialog for any user opting to follow more than six projects and made it clearer how to add new projects not yet building on CircleCI.
• Support for object stores other than S3 - CircleCI 2.2.0 now supports the same object store options that are supported in 1.x. This is a prerequisite to future releases that will allow non-AWS installations of CircleCI 2.x.
• Updates to the VM Service; ACTION MAY BE REQUIRED IF YOU ARE USING AWS - The VM service has been updated to use volumes rather than persistent instances. This change allows operators to accommodate Docker Layer Caching with a smaller number of long-running VMs. If you installed using the suggested IAM permissions from prior versions you must update your IAM permissions with this upgrade. Refer to the policy template for the complete set of permissions.
• New Contexts feature; ACTION MAY BE REQUIRED IF YOU ARE USING THE HIGH AVAILABILITY CONFIGURATION - The Contexts feature uses a HashiCorp Vault secure storage mechanism. If your installation is running in HA mode, HashiCorp Vault needs to be externalized similar to the Mongo and Postgres databases. Refer to the Configuring High Availability documentation for instructions.
