Jun 1, 2026June 2026 monthly summary for simplyblock-io/sbcli: Delivered measurable business value across observability, node management, OpenShift configurability, and API integrity. Implementations include an enhanced monitoring and log collection workflow for Docker control plane services using regex-based log association and Prometheus scrape timeout improvements, a new command to restart k3s-agent when hugepages exceed thresholds with service existence checks and improved node IP retrieval, support for specifying a custom OpenShift MachineConfigPool via OPENSHIFT_MCP in storage node templates, and API routing fixes correcting route parameters and route names in storage API responses. These changes reduce operational risk, tighten API correctness, and enable more flexible deployments on Kubernetes and OpenShift platforms.
