VMware Tanzu Platform for Kubernetes VMware Tanzu Application Platform (TAP)
- Known Issues (not all issues, please see release notes for full list):
- TAP 1.11.1 - Upgrading from v1.8.x, v1.9.x, or v1.10.x to Tanzu Application Platform v1.11 might fail initially on the Build profile, but will reconcile automatically within a few seconds. There is no current workaround.
- The Tanzu Application Platform integration with Tanzu Service Mesh does not work on vSphere with TKR v1.26.
- Supply Chain Security Tools - Policy defaults to The Update Framework (TUF) enabled due to incorrect logic.
- The Snyk scanner outputs an incorrectly created date, resulting in an invalid date.
- Recurring scan has a maximum of approximately 5000 container images that can be scanned at a single time due to size limits configMaps.
- If the supply-chain container image-scanning is configured to use a different scanner or scanner version than the recurring scan, the vulnerabilities displayed in Tanzu Developer Portal might be inaccurate.
- SCST - Scan 1.0 fails with the error secrets 'store-ca-cert' not found during deployment by using Tanzu Mission Control with a non-default issuer.
- When uninstalling Tanzu Application Platform v1.11, the removal of the scanning package can get stuck because of a failed namespace deletion in the scanning package.
- When outputting CycloneDX v1.5 SBOMs, the report is found to be an invalid SBOM by CycloneDX validators.
- Ad-blocking browser extensions and standalone ad-blocking software can interfere with telemetry collection within the VMware Customer Experience Improvement Program and restrict access to all or parts of Tanzu Developer Portal.
