macOS

It's possible to run all components of the system on macOS systems, but most common scenario would be to run MooseFS Client (mfsmount) that enables macOS users to access resources available in MooseFS infrastructure.

In case of macOS, since there's no default package manager, we release .pkg files containing only binaries without any startup scripts, that normally are available in Linux packages.

Download and install FUSE for macOS package from: https://osxfuse.github.io

Download and install MooseFS packages for macOS 12+:
https://repository.moosefs.com/moosefs-4/osx/12

If you encounter any issues while opening the macOS packages installer, please follow these steps:
