Changelog

Release history for MASS (Mango Accelerated Scalable Storage).


0.0.14​

Released: 2026-08-10

Covers everything shipped between 0.0.7 and 0.0.14.4.

New Guide Sections​

  • Hardware — Cluster Map, node and drive health, guided drive replacement, and live cluster reconfiguration (add or remove storage engines, change a node's fabric address or NIC without a redeployment)
  • Software Updates — the single-button update flow with its fact-based impact summary (whether storage access keeps running, pauses, or stops; whether the update is reversible), Blocked / Retry / Abort recovery, offline update bundles, and downgrade warnings
  • Support — log bundles and support tickets emailed to MangoBoost
  • Alerts and Notifications — critical alert notifications in the Dashboard, and routing alerts to Slack channels and email recipients
  • Migrating Data In — copy data into a volume from NFS, a local path, or (from the CLI) S3
  • Developer Toolkit — building applications against the bundled client runtime with pkg-config mass, HDF5, and the bundled IOR benchmark

Corrections​

The Dashboard, the CLI, and the appliance itself changed substantially since 0.0.6:

TopicWhat changed
Dashboard addressNow https://<head-node-ip>:30082 (HTTP on 30080, REST API on 30083)
NavigationAnalysis → Analytics; Settings → System; Access → Identity & Access; Protection gains Migrations
Mountingmass-ctl mount --volume-id <id> — the label and UUID flags are gone. Reboot recovery is registered by default; --fstab is deprecated and --no-fstab gives an explicitly temporary mount.
env modesBoolean flags --bandwidth / --metadata / --standard, not --mode <name>
Client packagesmass-client for Ubuntu 22.04 / 24.04 / 26.04 and RHEL / Rocky 9 / 10. EL8 is no longer supported, and the EL10 package is a thin client that cannot mount volumes.
Volume groupsStorage Optimization replaces the old profile list — Small-file / Mixed / Large-file workload, or a custom metadata percentage. Redundancy factor replaces the protection-mode list.
VolumesNo size field (thin-provisioned). Owner is required, and a POSIX mode can be set at creation. Access Type is Filesystem.
DeletionThe retain option is gone — deleting always destroys the data. Force-delete plus Orphan Storage reclaim replaces it.
BackupsS3 targets are not supported and are rejected. A full backup can be restored into a different volume.
RolesThe role list changed: super_admin, general_manager, volumegroup_manager, volume_manager, identity_manager, usergroup_manager, viewer, member. auditor is retired and migrated to viewer.
IdentitiesThere is no approval step — a new identity or machine is active immediately. Only super_admin can start a software update.
NotificationsSlack and email. Jira integration is no longer part of the product.
