The dump utility that's included in the dump package is deprecated.

You can alternatively use the tar or dd to achieve similar functionality.

Note that the restore utility, originally included in the dump package, remains available in Oracle Linux 9 and can be installed by using the restore package.

The use of a SQLite backend database for the Bacula backup utility is deprecated. Bacula can use a MySQL backend database and you can migrate existing deployments to MySQL. Avoid using SQLite for new deployments of the Bacula backup utility.

Exporting using the TMPDIR environment variable in the /etc/rear/local.conf or /etc/rear/site.conf ReaR configuration files, is deprecated.

Instead, you can specify a custom directory for ReaR temporary files by exporting the variable in the shell environment before executing ReaR. For example, run the export TMPDIR=…​ statement and then run the rear command in the same shell session or script.
