Seqera Cloud v26.1.0_cycle37

General updates and improvements

Studios

  • Added validation to ensure the workspace container repository setting is configured before allowing creation of custom-built Studios.
  • Added Studios to the onboarding resources shown to new users during account setup, helping users discover Studio functionality early in their journey.
  • Removed the ability to start and stop Studios from the Launch role to better align permissions with user responsibilities.

Compute

  • Added Amazon EC2 p6-b300 instance family to the NVMe storage list, enabling support for this new GPU-optimized instance type.
  • Added the ability to disable and enable compute environments through the UI. This allows administrators or workspace owners to temporarily or permanently prevent new workflow executions or new Studio sessions on disabled compute environments.
  • Introduced error messaging when attempting to launch workflows on disabled compute environments. The error message now explicitly states Specified compute environment disabled instead of the generic Not available message.
  • Added Amazon EC2 X8aedz memory-optimized instance family (powered by AMD EPYC processors) to the NVMe storage list, supporting up to 8 TB of local NVMe SSD storage.
  • Updated the default Azure Batch image and improved error propagation for image-related failures.

Workflows

  • Added tracking for Spot instance interruptions (numSpotInterruptions) at the task level, aggregated to the workflow level. This metric tracks how many times Spot instance preemption interrupted and restarted tasks.

Launchpad

  • Renamed Config view to Params file view in launch form parameters, to align terminology with Nextflow.

Bug fixes

Studios

  • Fixed an issue that allowed basic organizations to run more than one Studio simultaneously. Basic organizations now default to a maximum of 1 running Studio when not setting an explicit quota, while other organization types use the global limit (default: 100).

Compute

  • Fixed intermittent workflow launch failures caused by cache returning expired AWS STS credentials. Added expiration checking, configurable refresh margin, and cache invalidation for expired entries.
  • Reverted Azure Batch to use Ubuntu 22.04 (from 24.04).
  • Fixed errors when listing compute environments with the resources attribute for legacy Seqera Compute Batch configurations that don't implement IAwsCloudConfig. Added proper handling and fallback logic.

Pipeline versioning

  • Fixed an issue with pipeline version lists not updating correctly when publishing a draft version.

Launchpad

  • Fixed an issue with parameters not clearing correctly when switching between pipelines with and without parameters in the launch form.
  • Fixed date formatting to use calendar year (yyyy) instead of ISO week-based year (YYYY), which caused dates at year boundaries to display the wrong year.
  • Fixed the merging of entity and compute environment labels for single VM compute environments to ensure labels are properly combined and applied.
