Connect and Read Status​

An admin enters the Manager endpoint, username and password, then checks that the status shows Connected. Settings entered here are lost on restart; to keep them, use Environment. Changing the endpoint clears the password. Open dashboard requires an external dashboard URL. Volume operations require operator or admin.

Capacity and Objects​

Before deleting a volume group or volume, check its scope and dependencies in MASS.

Create a Volume​

Attach to a Node​

The node needs HTTPS access to MASS Manager, an mTLS client certificate and storage-fabric connectivity.

  1. Select Attach to node on the volume.
  2. Run the displayed mass-ctl mount command on the node.
  3. Verify the mount. Attach to node alone does not mount the volume.
