+h3. WebDAV service uses @/var/cache@ for file content
+
+@keep-web@ now stores copies of recently accessed data blocks in @/var/cache/arvados/keep@ instead of in memory. That directory will be created automatically. The default cache size is 10% of the filesystem size. Use the new @Collections.WebDAVCache.DiskCacheSize@ config to specify a different percentage or an absolute size.
+
+If the previously supported @MaxBlockEntries@ config is present, remove it to avoid warning messages at startup.

+h3. Remove Workbench1 packages after upgrading the salt installer
+
+If you installed a previous version of Arvados with the Salt installer, and you upgrade your installer to upgrade the cluster, you should uninstall the @arvados-workbench@ package from the workbench instance afterwards.
+
+h3. Remove Workbench1 packages and configuration
+
+The Workbench1 application has been removed from the Arvados distribution. We recommend the following follow-up steps.
+* Remove the Workbench1 package from any service node where it is installed (e.g., @apt remove arvados-workbench@).
+* In your Nginx configuration, add your Workbench1 URL host (from @Services.Workbench1.ExternalURL@) to the @server_name@ directive in the Workbench2 section. For example: <notextile><pre>server {
+  listen 443 ssl;
+  server_name workbench.ClusterID.example.com workbench2.ClusterID.example.com;
+  ...
+}</pre></notextile>
+* In your Nginx configuration, remove the @upstream@ and @server@ sections for Workbench1.
+* Remove the @Services.Workbench1.InternalURLs@ section of your configuration file. (Do not remove @ExternalURL@.)
+* Run @arvados-server config-check@ to identify any Workbench1-specific entries in your configuration file, and remove them.

 h3. Check implications of Containers.MaximumPriceFactor 1.5
 
 When scheduling a container, Arvados now considers using instance types other than the lowest-cost type consistent with the container's resource constraints. If a larger instance is already running and idle, or the cloud provider reports that the optimal instance type is not currently available, Arvados will select a larger instance type, provided the cost does not exceed 1.5x the optimal instance type cost.
