I am very pleased to announce the release of version 1.7 of pitrery.
Apart from some bug fixes, there are some mojor changes:
- The post backup hook, available through
POST_BACKUP_COMMAND, is now run whatever the outcome of the backup, as long as the pre backup hook has been run. The new variablePITRERY_EXIT_CODEis made available to the command to let it know if the backup have failed or succeeded. - The
pitr_mgrsymlink, being kept for backward compatibility since version 1.5, have been removed. Usepitreryinstead.
The new feature of this version is the possibility to choose how backups are compressed when using the tar storage method.
The release is available in the downloads page. See the upgrade page for more information.
