Due to other software restrictions/constraints, I'm stuck at Jessie for this
host :( most notably the enterprise version of zmanda/betsol to do NDMP backups
of an Dell/EMC/Isilon cluster.

However I certainly can test the Debian packaged version on buster since I have
a few VMs running it. My goal is to eventually use a new, bare metal server to
backup to disk with vaulting. This is really what I want to test.

thanks,
jf
