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:
[list]
[] 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),
[/list]- 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
