Beta 1 will be available for testing on:

*ppa:maas/next (or Ubuntu Xenial)*

Please be advised that MAAS 2.0.0 Beta 1 will replace MAAS 2.0.0 alpha 4.

For more information about the changes, please refer to:

Major new features


   -

   Region Controller Redundancy

Starting from MAAS 2.0 beta 1, MAAS now provides the ability to scale out
to provide redundancy for the MAAS Region Controller API server and DNS.
This will allow administrators to set up multiple MAAS Region Controllers
(maas-region-api) against a common database, providing redundancy of
services. With further manual configuration, users will be able to setup
MAAS Region Controller in High Availability.

Minor new features


   -

   MAAS Proxy is now managed

Starting from MAAS 2.0 beta 1, MAAS now manages the configuration for
maas-proxy. This allows MAAS to lock down maas-proxy, and only allow
traffic from networks MAAS know about. For more information please visit:


   -

   DHCP Snippets WebUI

MAAS 2.0 beta 1 introduces the ability to add and remove DHCP snippets via
the Web UI. This can be found under the ‘Settings’ page. This feature is
available for administrative only.
