Known issues

The Solo team fixes bugs, delivers new features, and makes changes on a regular basis as described in the changelog. Some issues, however, might impact many users for common use cases. These known issues are as follows:

• Do not use underscores (_) in the names of your clusters.
• You can deploy Gloo Mesh Enterprise in a single cluster or multicluster setup. However, the single cluster setup has not been tested as extensively. If you run into issues, try Debugging Gloo Mesh and Getting help and support.
• In Istio 1.13, a short hostname is automatically created for Istio ServiceEntry and Kubernetes services with .svc in the hostname. Services in the mesh can use that short hostname to send a request to the service. For example, if you enable federation, service entries are automatically generated across clusters for you with names such as reviews.bookinfo.svc.cluster-1.global and reviews.bookinfo.svc.cluster-2.global. In addition, Istio automatically creates the reviews short hostname that services can use to call the reviews service. Requests are resolved at random to one of the backing services upon startup, which can cause unexpected behavior, especially if you apply policies to try to change the routing behavior. The issue is resolved in 1.13.4.
