Mar 1, 2025In March 2025, the red-hat-storage/ocs-ci repo delivered security-focused improvements and test reliability enhancements for cluster expansion workflows. Key features include in-transit encryption management during worker node addition with verification and expanded test coverage, plus a retry mechanism for OSD encryption verification to boost robustness. In parallel, external KMS encryption tests were stabilized by skipping tests in disconnected cluster environments to prevent false failures. These changes reduce security risk during expansion, shorten mean-time-to-detect issues, and improve CI reliability.
