Clonezilla Live

Clonezilla Live è una distribuzione Linux basata su Debian Sid per clonare e partizionare il disco. Ricorda il Norton Ghost, ma è invece basato su altri prodotti open source. La particolarità più importante è che vengono salvati solo i blocchi del disco che sono utilizzati, per cui l’operazione di clonazione richiede pochi minuti!

Versione 2.7.1-22

Questa versione contiene (in Inglese):

• The underlying GNU/Linux operating system was upgraded. This release is based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2021/Jan/27).
• Linux kernel was updated to 5.10.9-1.
• Include exfatprogs instead of exfat-utils.
• Include package glances, ipv6calc, atop, usbtop, bashtop, python3-psutil, vnstat and iperf3.
• Add package f3 in Clonezilla/DRBL/GParted live. Thanks to timgmooney at hotmail com for this suggestion.
• ocs-sr: make –rescue work for ocs-onthefly to call ocs-sr. Thanks to huh for reporting this issue: https://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/discussion/Clonezilla_live/thread/ba2d28a4ef/
• prep-ocsroot: add an option to fsck repository file system before mounting local one. Thanks to Bohdan for this idea. Ref: https://gitlab.com/stevenshiau/clonezilla/-/issues/53
• Better mechanism to find LIVE_MEDIA in function get_live_media_mnt_point of ocs-functions. This allows persistence in the live-boot to work with Clonezilla live. Thanks to Bohdan for asking persistence feature.
• ocs-sr: Support customized auto-gen image name. Key name: productname, FQDN, UUID, MAC, year, date, time (case insensitive). It can be any combination, just make beginning with “autoname-“. If key name is not any one of the above, it will be shown as itself. E.g., autoname-fox-year-date-time-uuid -> fox-2020-1227-2336-564d41fc-9d80-20ac-c844-bda6a392d4c6
• ocs-sr: support more time-related format for “autoname-“: Four new key names: month, day, hour, minute (case insensitive), e.g., autoname-tiger-month-day-year-hour-minute -> tiger-12-31-2020-23-15. In addition, datefmt_* can be used to assign the format from “date” command. E.g., autoname-fox-datefmt_%Y%m%d -> fox-20210109 autoname-fox-datefmt_%Y-datefmt_%m%d -> fox-2021-0109
• Add support for scheme about samba_server with version assigned as: smb1, smb1.0, smb2, smb2.0, smb2.1, smb3, smb3.0, smb3.11, and smb3.1.1. in ocs-live-repository so that the cifs version can be assigned. Thanks to ottokang for this idea. Ref: https://groups.google.com/g/ocs-clonezilla/c/M0eEV9ClO4k/m/FlW06koMBwAJ
• Improve the support for Linux software RAID. Allow something lie /dev/md126 can be a partition, too. Thanks to Jorge Fábregas (jorge.fabregas at gmail com) for asking and testing.
• Add language setting (en_US) in grub.cfg.
• Change the date-time format for auto*name as like my-2020-1220-0221-img, was my-2020-12-20-0221-img.
• Show file system and partition size in the TUI when listing partitions in restoreparts.
• Language file es_ES was updated. Thanks to Juan Ramón Martínez.
• Package ezio instead of ezio-static is used since it can depend on different versions of libtorrent. It was updated to version 1.1.11. An issue about uploading too early was fixed.
• Reduce ezio_cache_ratio from 0.7 to 0.5 in drbl-ocs.conf.
• The devices to be deployed by BT mode will be run together. No more one device by another device.
• Add leecher mode (-l|–for-leecher) in ocs-btsrv.
• As suggested by ottokang _at gmail com and https://lwn.net/Articles/244829/, noatime implies nodiratime. Therefore remove nodiratime in the option of mount command.
• ocs-sr: destination disk can be assigned by serialno when restoring.
• ocs-onthefly: source and destination device can be assigned by serialno.
• The serial no of disk device is now in the short format, not the long one from udevadm. Thanks to LinuxOpa for clarifying this. Ref: https://sourceforge.net/p/clonezilla/support-requests/143/
• When ocs-sr is in saving mode, the DEVICE name can also be assigned by: For disk: PTUUID or SERIALNO, e.g., PTUUID=03c8b280-47aa-4881-aca5-9b9c66fe28c7. If there are spaces in SERIALNO, replace every space by “_”. For partition: UUID or PARTUUID, e.g., UUID=0b51ce79-7bc0-4111-8a40-839461a9b12f”
