ScyllaDB Manager — Now even easier to maintain your ScyllaDB clusters!
Blog post from ScyllaDB
ScyllaDB Manager 1.2 introduces enhancements to streamline the maintenance of ScyllaDB clusters, notably through improved repair features. The update simplifies configuration by removing the "repair unit" concept, allowing tasks to dynamically encompass new tables matching task definitions. It offers multi-datacenter repair capabilities, enabling users to isolate repairs to specific nodes, tables, or token ranges, and schedule them with precision using timestamps and time deltas. The update also simplifies SSH connectivity setup, enhancing security without requiring changes to database configurations, with the introduction of the scyllamgr_ssh_setup script for automated SSH key management. Additional improvements include the deployment of the ScyllaDB Manager server API using HTTPS by default, topology-aware cluster registration, and the dynamic determination of shard counts, allowing for more efficient management of diverse node sizes within a cluster.
