We are going to release Backup for Linux v2.4.0.17 very shortly.
What's new :
- HiDPI screens are supported for all original icons in Backup for Linux (for rebranding graphics it's pending yet).
- Hidden files/folders in backup plan wizard are finally shown, so they can be selected and deselected.
- Plan wizard now shows a special status for a directory when only a part of its contents are selected for backup/restore.
- Remote deploy now can apply configurations to Linux backup clients.
- Symbolic (soft) links are supported properly (global option for all backup plans), here are the behavior options:
Do not back up symlinks (completely ignore),
Back up symlinks only (restore will create symlinks),
Back up original files instead of symlinks (might lead to having duplicates of files in backup),
Back up original files in their original location (even if that's outside of what's selected for backup),
- We removed false Failed status when a plan ignores sockets, pipes, device files etc.; now the plan status is Warning.
- Under the hood improvements
- General usability improvements
