      "text": "- Fixed client authentication being turned off and client certificates being cleared when you patched a field other than a certificate field, such as `evictionPolicy`, in the `spec.globalConfigurations` of a REAADB. The operator now preserves the mutual TLS (mTLS) settings on the underlying Active-Active database. REDB resources were not affected <!--RED-212113-->\n\n- Fixed an Active-Active database whose REAADB spec omitted `externalReplicationPort` for a participating cluster. The operator now syncs the port from the existing Active-Active database <!--RED-205147-->\n\n- Fixed an endless \"could not set label\" loop caused by reserved keys in the persistent volume claim (PVC) extra labels annotation <!--RED-189152-->"
