v1.32.0+rke2r1

This release is RKE2's first in the v1.32 line. It updates Kubernetes to v1.32.0.

Important Note

If your server (control-plane) nodes were not started with the --token CLI flag or config file key, a randomized token was generated during initial cluster startup. This key is used both for joining new nodes to the cluster, and for encrypting cluster bootstrap data within the datastore. Ensure that you retain a copy of this token, as is required when restoring from backup.

You may retrieve the token value from any server already joined to the cluster:

cat /var/lib/rancher/rke2/server/token

Changes since v1.31.4+rke2r1:

• Bump K3s version for release-1.32 (#7445)
• Validate single branch for tag (#7451)
• Update rke2-cloud-controller for v1.32.0 (#7461)
