[2.6.1] - 2025-07-21

Warning

This patch removes the suggested ClusterId functionality.

Suggested ClusterId Functionality

Prior to this change, the wrapper would generate a unique cluster ID based on the connection string and the cluster topology; however, in some cases (such as custom endpoints, IP addresses, and CNAME aliases, etc), the wrapper would generate an incorrect identifier. This change was needed to prevent applications with several clusters from accidentally relying on incorrect topology during failover which could result in the wrapper failing to complete failover successfully.

Migration

Number of Database Clusters in Use	Requires Changes	Action Items
Single database cluster	No	No changes required
Multiple database clusters	Yes	Review all connection strings and add mandatory clusterId parameter (PR #1476). See documentation for clusterId parameter configuration
