We are pleased to announce that we have just released Bacula version 9.2.0 to Source Forge and to www.bacula.org. In addition, a new version of Baculum (Web GUI interface) will be released shortly.
This is one of the biggest Bacula release ever made. It has
almost 540,000 lines of diff output between Release 9.0.8 and
this release.
This is a major new release with a new version number. It has been
very thoroughly tested, but as always, please backup any previous
version and test this version prior to putting it into production.
For the most part the changes were contributed to the Bacula
project by Bacula Systems SA and myself, but there were a number
of other contributors that I thank.
Database Update
—————
There are no changes required to the catalog database.
Compatibility:
————–
As always, both the Community Director and Storage daemon(s) must be upgraded
at the same time. Any File daemon running on the same machine as a Director
or Storage daemon must be of the same version.
Older File Daemons should be compatible with the 9.2.0 Director and Storage
daemons. There should be no need to upgrade older File Daemons.
