When you click on Volumes in the Control Panel you'll see all Volumes across your servers, rather than just the Volumes on the first alphabetical server. Super useful!
Conversely when viewing Volumes for a specific container, we default to only showing you Volumes that are attached to that container. Also super useful!
If your attempt to Clone or Overwrite a container fails due to your server's storage being full, we'll now provide more useful error messages.
We've done a nip and tuck on a whole bunch of messages and logs for Cloud Containers, so when you're in the Control Panel and viewing your Account » Activity Logs, things should be much clearer and less noisy.
In some cases we weren't respecting the ownership of files when cloning a container on the same server. This would result in the files being owned by root, which is bad. This has been fixed and files will correctly stay as www-data.
For the first time on Cloud Containers we're officially supporting SQL Server, with our release of SQL Server 2022 as a Service Image. Pairing it up with our already supported .NET Core Web Image opens the doors to many projects across the .NET ecosystem. Read all about .NET Core and SQL Server in the Knowledge Base.
We've tweaked a bunch of jobs across the Cloud Container platform, tidying up the order of operations and further improving performance. As a result, jobs like changing a container image will be a bit faster with less downtime.
Cloud Container backups just got even easier to restore for Managed servers. With the new "Backups" tab you can see all automated and manual backups from the past 14 days, and restore your choice with a simple button press.
It's an easier, faster and safer way of restoring should something go wrong. It's also another reason to ensure your Cloud Container has Server Management. Read more in the Knowledge Base!
Sometimes people put uppercase characters into URLs. Unusual? Perhaps, but we're sure there's a good reason. Which is why any Domain Redirects that you edit with uppercase characters will now update correctly.
The role of account Admin has only been around for a few days, and here's its first power boost. By enforcing 2FA (two-factor authentication) across the entire account, Admins give every current and new user 48 hours to set up an extra security check at login, or be locked out. See how to enforce 2FA in the Knowledge Base.
Volumes are a new way to share files and assets between containers, and to limit SSH/sFTP access to specific directories. They're free for all Cloud Container customers from today. See the announcement on our blog for more.
A new "Admin" privilege can be assigned to Contacts in your SiteHost account. Admins can customise Module access of other users, and can control some security settings - like upcoming changes to our 2FA feature...
While viewing a specific Cloud Container server, click "Add Container" and the form will automatically select the server that you're viewing, saving you a click and scroll. It's the small things.
When viewing the Invoice listing screen the pagination will now work for those with many, many, invoices. To those impacted, thank you for the ongoing support!
When viewing logs in the Control Panel, such as account Activity Logs or History on a server, the user that initiated that action is now correctly displayed again.
We've added Debian Bookworm as a distribution choice for our Linux VPS, Linux VDS and Dedicated Server plans so you can get the latest Debian LTS on offer. Find more details on the blog.
If you use sub-accounts we've made it much easier to match invoices or email notifications to them. Now when viewing the Sub Accounts screen in the Control Panel, the ID will be displayed alongside the name of the account.
