On December 2, 2022, ZStack Cloud officially released its latest version, ZStack Cloud 4.5.3, covering a number of important features described in details below.
Overview of new features in ZStack Cloud 4.5.3
ZStack Cloud 4.5.3 makes optimizations on the resource search.
In the earlier ZStack Cloud versions, before searching for resources, you need to click the search button, expand the search box, and then select the search conditions, which is a long operation path. At the same time, the tag is built into the search conditions, which weakens the search feature of tags to some extent.
Starting from ZStack Cloud 4.5.3, the search box is integrated with the search button, and the tag is placed right to the search box, which effectively shortens the operation path and simplifies the interface level for users to reach conveniently.
ZStack Cloud 4.5.3 begins to provide an automatic search option for key resources. After you enter the search information, the Cloud can intelligently identify the input text and quickly filter it, which further improves the search efficiency.
ZStack Cloud 4.5.3 begins to support saving your search record. When returning to the previous page, the original search condition is saved, which improves the smoothness and integrity of the search experience.
Starting from ZStack Cloud 4.5.3, the multi-condition combination search scenario is enhanced, and filtering records are displayed in a unified area for easy viewing and adjustment.
ZStack Cloud 4.5.3 makes optimizations on volume available space update.
In the earlier ZStack Cloud versions, you can set Volume Available Space Update Interval if you create an alarm to monitor the available storage spaces of volumes. After setting, the volume with an space alarm will be refreshed automatically at the specified interval. ZStack Cloud 4.5.3 expands the effectiveness of Volume Available Space Update Interval so that you can set the volume available space update interval on all volumes on the Cloud.
Starting from ZStack Cloud 4.5.3, the Volume Available Space Update Scope of global setting is newly added to support setting the scope of the volumes that are enabled with automatic available space updates. These volumes have their available space automatically updated according to Volume Available Space Update Interval. Valid values: All Volumes, Volumes with Space Alarms, and None.
ZStack Cloud 4.5.3 makes optimizations on backup management.
In the earlier ZStack Cloud versions, the backup job overview page only displays the number of VM/volume backup jobs and the state/status of those backup jobs in addition to the backup job statistics.
Starting from ZStack Cloud 4.5.3, the Resource Overview card is newly added to the backup job overview page to display the backup and protection status of available VMs/volumes on the Cloud, which is convenient for O&M personnel to view in a unified manner and avoid missing important business backups. At the same time, the original card is categorized and optimized to show the number and state of VM/volume backup jobs in one card.
Starting from ZStack Cloud 4.5.3, the column Backup Type is newly added to the VM instance/volume page, making it easy to quickly filter VM instance/volume with different backup types to improve O&M efficiency.
In the earlier ZStack Cloud versions, association of backup jobs with resources is a one-way operation, that is, resource association is only supported on the backup job creation page or details page. ZStack Cloud 4.5.3 supports Associate Backup Job on the VM instance/volume page, which enables two-way association of backup jobs and resources to improve configuration efficiency.
