ScyllaDB Manager 1.2 Release Announcement

ScyllaDB Manager 1.2 has been released for ScyllaDB Enterprise customers, offering enhanced control over repair tasks by enabling repairs on specific data centers, nodes, and token ranges, improving deployment and setup processes, and bolstering security features. This version introduces the capability to perform more granular repairs with new command-line flags, such as --dc, --host, and --token-ranges, and includes a new script to simplify managing SSH configurations across clusters. It now supports Debian 8 and Ubuntu 16 packages and defaults to using HTTPS for connecting with ScyllaDB nodes. Additionally, ScyllaDB Grafana Monitoring 2.0 has been updated to include a dashboard for ScyllaDB Manager 1.2, with revised metrics for better monitoring. ScyllaDB Manager, which offers centralized cluster administration and task automation, is positioned to become the hub of ScyllaDB Enterprise cluster management with plans for future enhancements such as rolling upgrades and a GUI frontend.
