| 33 | +=== Breaking changes |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +Breaking changes can prevent your application from optimal operation and |
| 36 | +performance. Before you upgrade, review the breaking changes, then mitigate the |
| 37 | +impact to your application. |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +{agent}:: |
| 40 | +* {agent} is now compiled using Debian 11 and linked against glibc 2.31 instead of 2.19. Drops support for Debian 10. {agent-pull}5847[#5847] |

| 48 | +.An {agent} with the Defend integration may report an Orphaned status and will not be able to be issued an upgrade action through {fleet}. |
| 49 | +[%collapsible] |
| 50 | +==== |
| 51 | +*Details* + |
| 52 | +A known issue in the {agent} may prevent it from being targetted with an upgrade action for a future release. |
| 53 | +This may occur if the Defend integration is used and the agent is stopped on a running instance for too long. |
| 54 | +An agent may be stopped as part of an upgrade process. |
| 55 | +
|
| 56 | +*Impact* + |
| 57 | +A bug fix is present in the 8.17.1 release of {fleet} that will prevent this from occuring. |
| 58 | +
|
| 59 | +If you have agents that are affected, the workaround is as follows: |
| 60 | +[source,shell] |
| 61 | +---- |
| 62 | +# Get a Token to issue an update_by_query request: |
| 63 | +curl -XPOST --user elastic:${SUPERUSER_PASS} -H 'x-elastic-product-origin:fleet' -H'content-type:application/json' "https://${ELASTICSEARCH_HOST}/_security/service/elastic/fleet-server/credential/token/fix-unenrolled" |
| 64 | +
|
| 65 | +# Issue an update_by_query request that targets effected agents: |
| 66 | +curl -XPOST -H 'Authorization: Bearer ${TOKEN}' -H 'x-elastic-product-origin:fleet' -H 'content-type:application/json' "https://${ELASTICSEARCH_HOST}/.fleet-agents/_update_by_query" -d '{"query": {"bool": {"must": [{ "exists": { "field": "unenrolled_at" } }],"must_not": [{ "term": { "active": "false" } }]}},"script": {"source": "ctx._source.unenrolled_at = null;","lang": "painless"}}' |
