+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.
+
+This will typically reduce overall latency for containers and reduce instance booting/shutdown overhead, but may increase costs depending on workload and instance availability. To avoid this behavior, configure @Containers.MaximumPriceFactor: 1.0@.
+
+h3. Synchronize keepstore and keep-balance upgrades
+
+The internal communication between keepstore and keep-balance about read-only volumes has changed. After keep-balance is upgraded, old versions of keepstore will be treated as read-only. We recommend upgrading and restarting all keepstore services first, then upgrading and restarting keep-balance.
+
+h3. Separate configs for MaxConcurrentRequests and MaxConcurrentRailsRequests
+
+The default configuration value @API.MaxConcurrentRequests@ (the number of concurrent requests that will be processed by a single instance of an arvados service process) is raised from 8 to 64.
+
+A new configuration key @API.MaxConcurrentRailsRequests@ (default 8) limits the number of concurrent requests processed by a RailsAPI service process.
+
+h2(#v2_7_0). v2.7.0 (2023-09-21)
"previous: Upgrading to 2.6.3":#v2_6_3
+h3. New system for live container logs
+
+Starting with Arvados 2.7, a new system for fetching live container logs is in place. This system features significantly reduced database load compared to previous releases. When Workbench or another application needs to access the logs of a process (running or completed), they should use the "log endpoint of container_requests":{{ site.baseurl }}/api/methods/container_requests.html which forwards requests to the running container. This supersedes the previous system where compute processes would send all of their logs to the database, which produced significant load.
+
+The legacy logging system is now disabled by default for all installations with the setting @Containers.Logging.LimitLogBytesForJob: 0@. If you have an existing Arvados installation where you have customized this value and do not need the legacy container logging system, we recommend removing @LimitLogBytesForJob@ from your configuration.
+
+If you need to re-enable the legacy logging system, set @Containers.Logging.LimitLogBytesForJob@ to a positive value (the previous default was @Containers.Logging.LimitLogBytesForJob: 67108864@).
+
h3. Workbench 1 deprecated
The original Arvados Workbench application (referred to as "Workbench 1") is deprecated and will be removed in a future major version of Arvados. Users are advised to migrate to "Workbench 2". Starting with this release, new installations of Arvados will only set up Workbench 2 and no longer include Workbench 1 by default.
+It is also important to note that Workbench 1 only supports the legacy logging system, which is now disabled by default. If you need to re-enable the legacy logging system, see above.
+
h3. Multi-node installer's domain name configuration changes
The @domain_name@ variable at @terraform/vpc/terraform.tfvars@ and @DOMAIN@ variable at @local.params@ changed their meaning. In previous versions they were used in combination with @cluster_name@ and @CLUSTER@ to build the cluster's domain name (e.g.: @cluster_name@.@domain_name@). To allow the use of any arbitrary cluster domain, now we don't enforce using the cluster prefix as part of the domain, so @domain_name@ and @DOMAIN@ need to hold the entire domain for the given cluster.
