Should we move to amanda 2.5.1 ?

2007-02-27 Thread Guy Dallaire
We're happily running amanda 2.4.5 right now. I'm wondering if we should move toward 2.5.1. I don't see the advantages for us. Are major bug fixes still issued for 2.4.5 ? If we move to 2.5.1, will we be able to recover the backups we made with 2.4.5. Do we have to upgrade all the clients and

Solaris 10 x86 users ?

We're moving from solaris sparc 2.6 9 toward solaris 10 x86 on a couple of servers. Should I expect problems with amanda ? We're still running 2.4.5

So, I have this machine which had all its filesystems being backed up by AMANDA, and the /dev/sda died. Is there a method I can use to boot from, say, Ubuntu, or knoppix, or some other CD-based OS, run the AMANDA client, connect to the server where the latest backups reside, and basically rebuild
