@evgeni could you check and let me know if it looks good?

Small not on the cherry picks: please don't pick it further than 3.12, older releases do not have the online-backup improvements this description relies on.

@AkshayGadhaveRH You have my ack. Please update the cherry-picking check list in the PR description based on Evgeni's comment and then all should be good.
