  Older 3.0.x and possibly 2.4.x File Daemons are compatible with the
  3.0.3 Director and Storage daemons. There should be no need to upgrade
  older File Daemons.
  
 
 You cannot use all new 3.0.x features for old 2.4.x fd clients,
 e.g ExcludeDirContaining
 

thanks much for your replies, I'll give it a go next week  then
report back. For now, we're not planning to introduce any new features
from 3.x to our backup strategy, it's a simple drop-in replacement for
a 2.2.8 bacula server, so I don't expect too many problems. 

All the best, 

Uwe

[Bacula-users] Q: Can 2.x clients talk to a 3.0.3 server?

2010-01-14 Thread Uwe Schuerkamp
Hi folks,

I just set up the first 3.0.3 bacula server (compiled from source on
CentOS 5.4) in our environment and was wondering wether 2.x clients
cann still talk to a 3.x server version? I cannot test this right now
without going through major changes because the new server is not at
its final destination, read: our hosting facility yet.

All the best  TIA for any thoughts, 

Uwe
