Hello out there, here are the latest news from the Bareos Developer Lounge:
Security Policy * We now have a security policy at github: https://github.com/bareos/bareos/security/policy * If someone wants to report a security issue it can be done using [email protected] Filedaemon Plugins * Now you can backup and restore a remote PostgreSQL Database * The libcloud Plugin is under development which enables you to backup buckets from S3 Storage, we are still looking for funders * The experimental split-jobs plugin partitions (large) filesets into n parts, each of these n parts can be backed up by an incremental job, the incremental jobs can be run in parallel. Documentation is available here: http://download.bareos.org/bareos/experimental/CD/maik-master-split_jobs/BareosMainReference/TasksAndConcepts/Plugins.html#split-jobs-plugin Storagedaemon Droplet-Backend * librdoplet now supports RHEL 8 and ships together with bareos, therefore the additional libdroplet packages are not neccessary anymore python-bareos * python-bareos will now also be published on PyPI.org. It can easily be installed via "pip install python-bareos". bareos-webui * File permissions are displayed in the restore file tree now * Restore Dialog: Restore location and file replacement are now pre-filled with the directive values from the selected restore job resource * Search filters for each table column have been introduced * A range slider has been introduced to adjust the amount of data to be displayed on the job table * Updated localization bareos-fuse * The Bareos contrib package bareos-fuse is also available via PyPI.org. On Linux it can be used to access Bareos information and backups as a virtual filesystem. See https://github.com/bareos/bareos-fuse for details. Configuration Warnings * The new bconsole command "status configuration" will show you deprecated and problematic configurations of the Bareos Director. * All daemons will now display a notification concerning warnings when invoked with "-t". * Additionally the status commands (status dir, status client, status storage) have been extended and will notify you if any warnings have been encountered in the daemon's configuration. Deprecating MySQL * Starting with Bareos 21, MySQL will not be supported as catalog Database anymore. To migrate to PostgreSQL use "bareos-dbcopy". See the documentation here: https://docs.bareos.org/man/bareos-dbcopy.html Solaris support * Support for Solaris has been revived. Bareos now compiles on Solaris 11.4 SPARC and x64 * Packages are available in the subscription repositories at https://download.bareos.com/ Current packages with the newest features and fixed bugs are available in our nightly repos: https://download.bareos.org/bareos/experimental/nightly/ We would be happy about feedback!
