Changes and New Features

Automatic Synchronization of SHARP Reservations and PKeys

Added support for automatic synchronization between the PKey database and SHARP reservations (create, modify, and delete) in multi-tenant clusters. When this mode is enabled, there is no need to invoke the SHARP reservation REST API manually.

For further information, please see Automatic Synchronization of SHARP Reservations and PKeys section.

Default Client-Server Communication

New installations of SHARP_am now use UCX as the default communication method with libsharp instead of sockets.

During upgrades, SHARP_am retains the previously configured communication method. If the system was previously using sockets, customers are advised to switch to UCX for improved reliability.

Default Configuration in UFM

sharp_enable is now set to trueby default, eliminating the need to update the settings in the configuration file.
