Core.application.capabilities.workspaces is undefined after upgrade to 2.16+

We’ve tried upgrading our OpenSearch + Dashboard cluster from 2.9.0 to 2.16 and 2.17 and post upgrade are greeted with the following stack on the dashboard:

Version: 2.17.1Build: 7969Error: core.application.capabilities.workspaces is undefined initHome@https://REDACTED/7969/bundles/plugin/home/home.plugin.js:1:39310start@https://REDACTED/7969/bundles/plugin/home/home.plugin.js:1:55071start@https://REDACTED/7969/bundles/core/core.entry.js:15:436338start@https://REDACTED/7969/bundles/core/core.entry.js:15:441866

I’m unable to find anything in the OpenSearch docs what workspaces are and how to disable it. Did anyone experience a similar issue and knows how to deal with this?

Hi @lockwooddev,

Am I correct to assume that you are running OpenSearch version 2.16 and your OpenSearch Dashboards are version 2.17?

Best,

We tried the combinations 2.16 & 2.17 on data nodes and dashboard, but the result is the same. No mixed versions.
