Caution if you're using Traefik Helm Charts for your Ingress Controller and require a service of Type LoadBalancer. They moved "service.type" to "service.spec.type". This bit me when I upgraded RKE2 from 1.35.5 to 1.35.6 where they did not mention a breaking change in Traefik Helm Charts... :rolling_eyes:

On a related note, if you're on RKE2: be cautious with the upgrade to 1.35.6 (which is crucial due to a critical security fix in containerd). It for some reason had fun deleting my Calico CNI deployment without any errors showing up in the logs. Took me a few hours to resolve that. So lovely to see a cluster not being able to start any pods due to "no network" and thus tainted nodes. Learnt a lot today from a patch release update! :hot_face:

Thank God it wasn't very hot in top of that. Thanks for the heads up
