One server can support them all. I have a single 3.3.3 on Ubuntu 14.04 supporting DLES from clients on Ubuntu 14.04, 12.04, 10.04, Debian 7, 6, 5, Cent OS 6 (.2 and.3) and Cent OS 5.X (.2,3,4,5,6,7,8,10)
For all of these, I installed the amanda-client package with the platform’s package manager, and as a least-common-denominator, I’m using auth=bsd for all of the DLEs. If I wanted to duplicate defs, I could use bsdtcp for the newer clients, but as they’re all behind a good firewall I just left it at bsd for all of them. So, this one server 3.3.3 is talking to a variety of Amanda Client versions and no issues found so far. Yes, one instance of 3.3.3 can support all of your clients. -- Joi Owen System Administrator Pavlov Media, Inc From: owner-amanda-us...@amanda.org [mailto:owner-amanda-us...@amanda.org] On Behalf Of Pablo Silva Sent: Tuesday, September 16, 2014 4:40 PM To: amanda-users@amanda.org Subject: Question about backup Centos 4 Centos 5, Centos 6 y Centos 7 Dear Colleagues: We have a doubt about Amanda, today we are using an Amanda server that is installed via yum, to support Centos 4 other Amanda server that was installed via yum to support Centos 5, and another server that is also installed with yum to support centos 6. I have understood that with the version that is available in Zamanda amanda3.3.x can support centos4, Centos 5 to 6, or should we continue to support separately ?, sounds strange but I was asked to do this query, from my point of view, with version 3.3.x amanda I can support any version of Centos. Thanks in advance Pablo
