Networking

  • ORION-212030: Added a VLAN ID column to CNodes and DNodes pages (Infrastructure -> CNodes or DNodes). This column shows the ID of the VLAN to which the node belongs.

Protocols

  • ORION-115966: Added an ability to control the way VAST Cluster sets the owning group when creating files on a view controlled with SMB and Mixed Last Wins security flavor.

    By default (which is the same as in previous versions), the owning group is determined based on the access protocol: from the user's primaryGroupID for SMB and from the user's POSIX GID for NFS. You can change this behavior to set the owning group based on the POSIX GID of the user for both SMB and NFS. The setting is made per tenant.

    To set the behavior, run the tenant create or tenant modify command with the --preferred-owning-group PROTOCOL_BASED or --preferred-owning-group POSIX_GID option specified.

VAST Database

  • ORION-191924: Added support for Trino information_schema queries so that VAST entities can be included in the query results.

Replication

  • ORION-226779: Added an ability to run replication from the default tenant to a non-default tenant on the remote peer.

VMS

  • ORION-243181: Added the timestamp field to the vast_vms_alarm metric to indicate the date and time of the alarm.

  • ORION-238249: The VAST Prometheus Exporter lets you export NIC physical port metrics representing the counts of received and transmitted bytes, and also received and transmitted pause packets.

  • ORION-196210: Added the DBox state as a metric that can be exported with the VAST Prometheus Exporter.

  • ORION-168916: Fine-tuned the dbox configuration does not match the pci switch type configuration alarm so that it is skipped from alarm listings if the same alarm has already occurred within the day.

VAST Web UI

  • ORION-182749: Added an ability to select and deselect all CNodes when creating or modifying a virtual IP pool (Network Access -> Virtual IP Pools -> choose to create or modify a pool -> Resource Selection tab).

Platform & Control

  • ORION-223443: Root permissions are no longer required when establishing an SSH connection by node name.

  • ORION-206489: Added support for Cumulus 5.10 switches.
