Feature Request: V12 rebalance, but in the backround

[mkretzer]

Hello,

the new V12 SOBR rebalance feature is nice, but kind of useless when using big, not so fast repos.

- all jobs cannot use the repo while rebalancing is running - bad when you need log backup to work
- it is infact possible to cancel the rebalance, but there is no way to know if after restarting the rebalance it continues where it started
- For bigger repos (> 500 TB) rebalance can take weeks - weeks without backups running

Why can this not be a (manually startable) backround feature? That a backup chain currently beeing moved cannot create a new synthetic is normal. But why stop everything else? At least log backups should run, even incementals should not be an issue.

Also, from my limited understanding there is no way to manually move a backup between SOBR extends without loosing block cloning even in V12.
