  This release fixes a problem where the newly introduced config sync "check-change-then-reload" functionality could cause endless reload loops with agents. The most visible parts are failing command endpoint checks with "not connected" UNKNOWN state. Only applies to HA enabled zones with 2 masters and/or 2 satellites.
  * Bugfixes
    - Cluster Config Sync
      - Config sync checksum change detection may not work within high load HA clusters #7565

  and distributed setups. If you are affected by agents/satellites
  not accepting configuration anymore, or not reloading, please upgrade.
  * Bugfixes
    - Cluster Config Sync
      - Never accept authoritative config markers from other instances #7552
      - This affects setups where agent/satellites are newer than the config master, e.g. satellite/agent=2.11.0, master=2.10.

      - Error message for command_endpoint should hint that zone is not set #7514
      - Global variable 'ActiveStageOverride' has been set implicitly via 'ActiveStageOverride ... #7521

        https://icinga.com/docs/icinga2/latest/doc/16-upgrading-icinga-2/#agent-hosts-with-command-endpoint-require-a-zone
      - Zones declared in zones.d are not loaded anymore:
