Hello, long time no see.
I am truly sorry to see so many of you have had an issue with this plugin, and it was not my intention to abandon it for as long as I have. Sadly, life had other plans (as it often does). I've recently found myself with time to tinker again, and as such I've released an update that does a few things to try and address some of the issues I am aware of. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to replicate many of the issues others are having, so my ability to test has been limited.
I also can see that the operation of some of the advanced functions isn't immediately clear either. A few of the issues people have had could have been resolved with a settings change in one of the more advanced settings tabs (usually Danger Zone). I'll try to find a way to make some of those things clearer as I progress on addressing the larger issues.
The big issue I'm attempting to address in the new release is the issue some people have had with the array not wanting to stop. I have adjusted how the backup scripts are checked and it will hopefully be able kill stuck ones more readily.
The other thing I have done is set a max version of 6.8.3 until I have time to test on 6.9. I currently do not have a test server, so it could be a bit before I have a chance to spin one up for troubleshooting.
Again, I do sincerely apologize for those that feel I left them in the lurch. Thankfully, as others have rightly pointed out, the script that the plugin uses on the back-end is much more stable and a solid way to go.
I would also like to add that I am more that willing to add contributors to the project if others would like to help me maintain it.
Best,
JTok
