Upgrade and compatibility
Starting with NetVault Backup 8.6, a new build type named “LinuxX86Pure64” has been added, while the pure 32-bit Linux version has been retired. To understand the impact of this change, review the following:
|
• |
Hybrid 32/64-bit Build: The hybrid 32/64-bit build has been retained. However, the platform type has been renamed from “LinuxX8664” to “LinuxX86Hybrid.” This build functions as the standard build for Linux users who do not have a pure 64-bit-only requirement. This build lets you upgrade from pure 32-bit and from hybrid builds of NetVault Backup. |
|
• |
Pure 64-bit Build: A new type of build named “LinuxX86Pure64” has been introduced for pure 64-bit Linux distributions. If you have a specific reason that you cannot use any 32-bit components (for example, you are using a Linux distribution that does not run 32-bit code), use this type. You cannot use this new type to upgrade existing NetVault Backup installations. You must remove the existing version and install the pure 64-bit version separately. To reduce confusion, warning messages have been added to both the upgrade and installation packages to ensure that you understand that they are not compatible. |
