New Features and Enhancements

  • Optimized License Upload for Black Site Customers: Improved the license upload flow for black site customers to ensure successful license uploads. Notably, this enhancement ensures that the license is uploaded successfully without the ability to setup Zmanda Cloud Storage (ZCS).

  • Resolution of License Upload Issues: Resolved the license upload issue that occurred when attempting to upload a ZCS-enabled license on a machine that previously had a license uploaded. With this patch, the process now seamlessly accommodates the upload of ZCS-enabled licenses, mitigating any potential conflicts.

  • VMware Enhancements: Users can now update either ESX or vCenter-type VMware sources. By simply adding a new backup set, Zmanda will automatically create a new configuration for each backup set linked to the source.

  • Enhanced S3 Cloud Storage Compatibility: Expanded cloud provider support in the S3 storage section to include Oracle, Zadara, and MinIO. Enabled adding cloud accounts in non-default regions (beyond us-east-1). Added flexibility to accommodate hostnames starting with HTTP.
