357 ================================================================
358 Release version 7.2.0
360 Bacula code: Total files = 733 Total lines = 303,426
361 The diff between Bacula 7.0.6 and Bacula 7.2.0 is 254,442
362 which represents very large change, for the most part
363 contributed to the Bacula project by Bacula Systems SA.
365 This is a major new release with many new features and a
366 number of changes. Please take care to test this code carefully
367 before putting it into production. Although the new features
368 have been tested, they have not run in a production environment.
370 ============== !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ===================
371 New Catalog format in version 7.2.0 and greater
372 -----------------------------------------------
373 This release of Bacula uses a new catalog format. We provide a script
374 (update_bacula_tables in bacula/src/cats and in bacula/updatedb) that
375 will update from Bacula 3.x, 5.2, or 7.0 to version 7.2.0 format.
376 The database upgrade is fast and simply. As always we strongly
377 recommand that you make a dump of your database prior to doing the
380 NOTE: The upgrade will work only for PostgreSQL and MySQL. Upgrading is
381 not (yet) supported for SQLite3.
382 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
385 For packagers, if you change options, naming, and the way
386 we link our shared object files, as at least one of you does,
387 you are creating a situation where the user may not be able
388 to run multiple versions of Bacula on the same machine, which
389 is often very useful, and in addition, you create a configuration
390 that the project cannot properly support.
392 Please note that the documentation has significantly changed.
393 You will need additional packages to build it such as inkscape.
394 Please see the README and README.pct files in the docs directory.
395 The packages come with pre-build English pdf and html files,
396 which are located in the docs/docs/manuals/en/pdf-and-html directory.
398 Packagers: please note that the Bacula LICENSE has changed, it is still
399 AGPLv3 and still open source. A new requirement has been added which
400 requires other projects using the source to keep the acreditations.
402 Packagers: please note that the docs license has changed. It is now
403 licensed: Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International
404 This is a common open source license.
405 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
409 As always, both the Community Director and Storage daemon(s) must be upgraded
410 at the same time. Any File daemon running on the same machine as a Director
411 or Storage daemon must be of the same version.
413 Older File Daemons should be compatible with the 7.2.0 Director and Storage
414 daemons. There should be no need to upgrade older File Daemons. However,
415 this has not been fully tested yet. Since we expect some problems, please
416 test before putting it into production.
419 Please see the New Features chapter of the manual for documentation on
420 the new features. The new features are currently only in the New Features
421 chapter and have not yet been integrated into the main chapters of the
422 manual. Also, since there were so many new features, it is possible that
423 a few that previously existed in version 7.0.x are documented a second
424 time in the 7.2.0 new features section.

901 Bacula code: Total files = 713 Total lines = 305,722
902 The diff between Bacula 5.2.13 and Bacula 7.0.0 is 622,577 lines,
903 which represents very large change.
905 This is a major new release with many new features and a
906 number of changes. Please take care to test this code carefully
907 before putting it into production. Although the new features
908 have been tested, they have not run in a production environment.
910 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
911 For packagers, if you change options, naming, and the way
912 we link our shared object files, as at least one of you does,
913 you are creating a situation where the user may not be able
914 to run multiple versions of Bacula on the same machine, which
915 is often very useful, and in addition, you create a configuration
916 that the project cannot properly support.
918 Please note that the documentation has significantly changed.
919 You will need additional packages to build it such as inkscape.
920 Please see the README and README.pct files in the docs directory.
921 The packages come with pre-build English pdf and html files,
922 which are located in the docs/docs/manuals/en/pdf-and-html directory.
924 Packagers: please note that the Bacula LICENSE has changed, it is still
925 AGPLv3 and still open source. A new requirement has been added which
926 requires other projects using the source to keep the acreditations.
928 Packagers: please note that the docs license has changed. It is now
929 licensed: Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International
930 This is a common open source license.
931 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

936 the same time. Any File daemon running on the same machine as a Director
937 or Storage daemon must be of the same version.
