MinimServer 2.1 on QNAP TS-228A available or not?

I checked this on the QNAP App Center web page. For QTS 4.5.4, it shows MinimServer 2.0.19 even though MinimServer 2.1.2 fully supports QTS 4.5.4 and all older versions of QTS.

There seems be a QNAP policy of only making current versions of MinimServer available for recent models of NAS and/or recent versions of QTS. The criteria for "recent" are not completely clear. I will contact QNAP to try to get more clarification about how this works.

You can stay on QTS 4.5.4 and do a manual download and installation of MinimServer 2.1.2 as described in this section. For the TS-228A, you need to download the ARMv8 version of MinimServer.
