Unimus version 1.6.1 is being released today!

This is a hotfix release for high memory usage during update when using HSQL DB.
This release contains the new 'store only unique backups' (duplicate backup filtering) mechanism.

Direct upgrade from 1.x.x and 0.3.x is supported, simply deploy the new version of Unimus, and everything will work.
Direct upgrade from 0.2.x or 0.1.x is not supported, please see this link for more details.

Full changelog:
= Version 1.6.1 =
Fixes:
Fixed high memory requirements for migration to 1.6.x when using HSQL DB

= Version 1.6.0 =
Features:
Increased default timeouts for more reliable operations on slow devices
Added support for access disclaimer messages on FortiOS
Added option to not use SMTP authentication in email notifications settings
Added option to not check HTTPS cert for Zabbix importer (for example when running Zabbix with a self-signed cert)
Improved discovery reliability on slow (or heavily-loaded) MikroTik devices

Only unique new backups will be stored (duplicate backup filtering):
- If a backup retrieved from the device is the same as the last backup already in the system, it will not be stored
- Backup table now shows a time range for which a backup was valid for, rather than just backup retrieval timestamp
- This feature makes it much easier to see when a device config changes

Added support for:
- Brocade TurboIron
- Citrix NetScaler
- Dell Force10 (RTOS)
- Dell switches (RTOS)

Fixes:
Fixed comma character not being properly loaded from configuration file, causing issues when used in the DB encryption password
Fixed NetXMS importer not finding containers if user didn't have access to Infrastructure Services in NetXMS
Fixed issue where Zabbix importer was not possible to configure - it was expecting an address, but it really needed an URL
Fixed new devices imported from an importer not being backup up if there were no other devices using the default schedule
Fixed not logging out a user whose account was removed while he was logged in
