v2.6.0 introduces the new simulation tracking postgres database, for prenight and progress simulations run using tools in the sim_archive module of rubin_sim. Previously this metadata was held in an h5 file, but moving to a postgres database will allow better scaling through the future. The prenight simulations themselves continue to be stored in an S3 bucket available at USDF.
The prenight simulations themselves moved from the SV configuration to the new LSST survey configuration.
There were also some updates to metrics to move from "filter" to "band", aligning with DM database use of 'band'.
