Hello,
I'm going to be setting up a new backup "system" for my work in the next
couple of days,
and I'm interested in using a new (1.37.38) version of Bacula (as I'm
interested in the
database changes, and the SSL support)- but I'm a little wary since
1.37.38 is still
flagged as beta-
Is there anybody running the 1.37 strain in production? Is there any
major known
issues that would make we want to avoid this release?
Yes and yes.
Although if you'd be affected by the problems depends on your setup and
your needs.
Before considering to use the development version, I would recommend
going through the archives of the development list.
My personal impression is that, using a simple setup (one SD, one tape
drive, one catalog) things should be fine. Adding an autochanger and
many pools will most probably work correctly. Multiple tape drives and
multiple autochangers should be closely observed, I think, and finally,
using DVDs and having more than one SD is definitely something I
wouldn't recommend in a production system.
In any case, you should be ready to deliver bug reports and help fixing
errors. The developers as well as many users will probably enjoyed to
have more serious bet testing done.

I'd rather not have to install 1.36, then upgrade the
database/clients/etc once a (possibly)
more stable release comes out.
Thanks for your help,
Cheers,
