* Allow attach of volumes to multiple nodes for vSphere ([#51066](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51066), [@BaluDontu](https://github.com/BaluDontu))
* vSphere: Fix attach volume failing on the first try. ([#51217](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51217), [@BaluDontu](https://github.com/BaluDontu))

In short, if you had dependencies that looked like:

```Python
def my_dep():
    try:
        yield
    except SomeException:
        pass
```

Now you need to make sure you raise again after `except`, just as you would in regular Python:

```Python
def my_dep():
    try:
        yield
    except SomeException:
        raise
```

# v1.6.9

[Documentation](https://docs.k8s.io) & [Examples](https://releases.k8s.io/release-1.6/examples)

### Deprecation

- Aborting the drain command in a list of nodes will be deprecated. The new behavior will make the drain command go through all nodes even if one or more nodes failed during the drain. For now, users can try such experience by enabling --ignore-errors flag. ([#98203](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98203), [@yuzhiquan](https://github.com/yuzhiquan))

- Improved `kubectl auth can-i` command by warning users when they try to access a resource out of scope. ([#76014](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/76014), [@WanLinghao](https://github.com/WanLinghao))

### Structured logging graduate to Beta

Structured logging reached its Beta milestone. Most log messages from kubelet and kube-scheduler have been converted. Users are encouraged to try out JSON output or parsing of the structured text format and provide feedback on possible solutions for the open issues, such as handling of multi-line strings in log values.

- Kubernetes will try to acquire the iptables lock every 100 msec during 5 seconds instead of every second. This is especially useful for environments using kube-proxy in iptables mode with a high churn rate of services. ([#85771](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/85771),...

  ([#79073](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/79073), [@rafatio](https://github.com/rafatio))
- Fix kubelet NodeLease potential performance issues. Kubelet now will try to update lease using cached one instead of get from API Server every time. ([#81174](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/81174), [@answer1991](https://github.com/answer1991))
