Please improve the restore process

[gary_john_walker (Gary Walker)]

Given the recent improvements to backups, is it time to improve the restore process?

Pick a file, start the restore, HA restarts and after that it’s largely guess work. Has it completed? Do I need to reboot? When do I need to reboot?

Ideally this would be in the GUI but even something at the CLI would be helpful.

Progress indicator when Restoring from Backup

I’m sure like me you have had to restore from backup at some point. So the nerves are jangling and the fingers are crossed as you do it. At present there is no indication as to how the Restore is shaping up, no clue as to what’s going on behind the scenes be it good or bad. It would be really useful to have some sort of simple indicator just to show how the restore is progressing - a comfort blanket for highly stressed HA users !
