Hi! We are using Bareos 18.2 for a few older/legacy physical hosts and VMs. Some clients use Bareos 16/17, some clients use CentOS 5 or even 4. We did not keep track of any news regarding paywalling the repositories. We honestly did not expect this to happen. It will take us a while to upgrade the clients (or move the services that run there to more modern platforms/OSs), so we still have to make sure, that backups (and restores!) work. Turns out we could potentially also run into problems, when trying to restore from the server, because we can’t download those old Bareos versions! I tried upgrading the Bareos server (18.2) to the most recent version 22, but it turns out, since version 21 or so only PostgreSQL is supported as catalog driver, so we’d need version 20 or so to convert the database (which I don’t get either). We are thinking about switching to the paid version of Bareos, but we’d have to be very sure, that this all works out. Does Bareos 22 (client) work with CentOS 4 or 5? Can Bareos 16/17 connect to Bareos 22 server? I’d be very happy to read suggestions! Thank you! Best regards Stefan Pinter
