Inserito da initzero il Lun, 2008-09-22 21:26
We are pleased to announce a new release of Synbak backup system!
- Follow the release notes:
- switched synbak licence from GPLv2 to GPLv3
- more synbak.spec fixes needed for fedora repository inclusion
- renamed example.conf to template.conf and moved from docs dir to synbak share dir: /usr/share/synbak/template.conf
- template.conf cleanups
- some fixes to the functions.sh file (thanks to Vitaly Ostanin)
- new backup method: dar
now synbak can make backups using the 'dar' utility (http://dar.linux.free.fr/)
nb. this is an initial dar support, and it's almost untested, please reports bugs - new backup method: pgsql
now synbak can make dumps of PostgreSQL databases
as backup_remote_uri use "pgsql://", ex. backup_remote_uri = pgsql://postgres@localhost
TODO: because the commands pg_dump and pg_dumpall can't manage password prompts from stdin, right now you must configure your pg_hba.conf and pg_ident.conf to accept connection from the user running synbak command without password prompt (i apologize for that, but this is a limitation of pg_dump) - some fixes to mysql, oracle and ldap methods: the dumps now are compressd on the fly into bzip2 format, reducing cpu usage and processing time
