Remove the global lock for backups.
Finally, the global lock is gone. Practically, what this means is: Backups and Updates do not block app configuration anymore.
@girish Amazing!

We will be working on the following for 8.2:
- (9.0) Backup integrity - store size and checksum of backups. Also provide a way to "verify" backup integrity in the remote.
- (9.0) Show backup/restore progress
- (9.0) Multiple Backup Destinations
- (9.0) Granular Backup schedule
- Fix issue with removal of stale/failed/partial backups
- Add sqlite3 addon
- Remove the global lock for backups.
- App archival?
- VM mode for apps?
- Branding of OIDC button
- Add more notification methods
- Don't run du for small disks (see)
- Mail attachment search
This used to 8.1 but see this post

App archival?
This is implemented now. In the Uninstall section, there is an option to archive.
In the Backups view, there is a listing of archives. You can unarchive them from there.
Archiving means:
- App gets uninstalled freeing up space on server
- App won't be in the main dashboard
- The latest backup of the app is kept "forever". Not affected by backup cleaning policies.
- Can be unarchived. If you delete the archive entry itself, the associated backup will eventually go away based on cleanup policy.

Wow this can be super useful.
Awesome

Add more notification methods
The notification stuff has been refactored now. For a start, each user (only admins) can decide what they want to get notified about by email. If you want notification about specific things, happy to add more but we just added the basics right now.
-
Making more change to backup stuff relies on getting the global lock changes out and well tested before we make more changes here. We will get 8.2 out in the coming week(s). Apart from backups, I think we implemented all the features listed initially. Will also help us get out Formbricks, Wallos and some other apps which rely on 8.2 features.

@girish About "app is down", I'm interested in a way to tune "restart automatically" for app being down. It's not the first time I notice an app is down or not responding because it crashed during the night and in the morning I have to manually restart it.
it happened for instance that my wordpress blog was stopped due to high traffic because of being on the frontpage of hacker news... and so was down for several hours... what a pity

Does that mean the backup stuff listed above isn't going to be included in 8.2?

@Joseph I'm using Safari. Which browser are you using?
iOS / iPadOS? macOS? There are settings to control the "new tab" behavior in both.

@firmansi Yes, I got the update notification for 8.20. Search for it manually if it doesn't show up by itself. I think it's considered "beta" so keep that in mind.

Updated to 8.2, smooth sailing.
Little issues:
- The app view (in blocks or as a list) still requires horizontal scrolling on an iPad.
- it’s at least not immediately clear how to use the new „archive app“ feature. I would have assumed it in the uninstall oder backup section but couldn’t find it.
- some text missing in the „uninstall“ section:
