    Description

      User impact:

      Backup action fails with the error if target node has installed xtrabackup version 8.0.13.

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. Add mysql instance to pmm
      2. Install xtrabackup 8.0.13 on the node with DB
      3. Start backup form PMM UI

      Actual result:

      There is an error pop-up on the UI with `Internal Server Error` text

      Expected result:

      Backup finished successfully

      Workaround:

      Before starting backup PMM checks required tools versions for compatibility. For xbcloud it uses `xbcloud --version` command, however that flag was added since xtrabackup 8.0.23.

      So we have some options:

      1. Do not support xtrabackup < 8.0.23
      2. For old xtrabackup versions version is printed in the top of `–help` command

       

      Also we should provide better error on the UI for similar errors.
