Sep 1, 2025September 2025 (apache/knox): Implemented security and reliability enhancements in token management and CM command flows. Delivered topology-level token limit configurability, a top-level config key check to disable token management when essential config is missing, and group-based access control for token renewal and revocation. Also enhanced CM commands: rolling restart and waitForStalenessSuccess now trigger a discovery round with improved logging and relevance checks, improving operational visibility and consistency.
