Installation
Section titled “Installation”For new installations, see the Installation guide.
For upgrading existing installations, see the associated Upgrading to 0.17.x guide.
Pod reaper
Section titled “Pod reaper”Backup pods can occasionally get stuck in ContainerCreating,
which blocks node recycling and requires manual intervention.
The operator now reaps managed backup pods that stay stuck past a configurable timeout, deleting them so their controller can reschedule them onto a healthy node. It is enabled by default.
Improved restores overview
Section titled “Improved restores overview”The Restores overview now lets you select multiple restores and delete them in one action, instead of opening and deleting each one individually.
Improvements
Section titled “Improvements”-
Console: the restore schema mapping and topics editors now show a collapsible help panel with a short explanation, a correctly indented YAML example, and a link to the relevant documentation. Empty editors also show a greyed-out example as a placeholder, so you can see the expected structure before you start typing.
-
Console: when a resource you were viewing no longer exists, for example because it was deleted in another tab or by another user, the console now detects the not-found state and redirects you back to the relevant overview page instead of leaving you on a broken detail page.
-
API: reworked the threading model behind the platform’s database access. Read queries now run on a dedicated read pool with a single serialized writer.
