What's Changed
- Stable v5.1.28 maintenance release bundling the post-v5.1.27 fixes now on
main. - Alerts and notifications: fixes repeated Docker update recovery alerts, quiet-hours escalation leaks, transient offline recovery flapping, stale guest per-disk alerts, and resolved-only notification noise.
- Runtime and installability: fixes Podman container CPU calculation, streamed installer entrypoint behavior, installer universal bundle fallback, and oversized AI discovery responses.
- Platform and data handling: fixes Synology/QNAP NAS detection and vendor-managed RAID suppression, backup orphan matching by backup type, Ceph manager standby parsing, linked host-agent threshold overrides, and SAML metadata public URL refresh.
- UI: adds a v6 RC testing banner and updates-panel callout in v5 linking to the v6 RC, demo, and the new v6 changelog so stable users can evaluate the upcoming major release deliberately.
