Ubuntu 16.04 EOL

Post by Coldfirex »

Howdy,
We noticed that the core for the proxy VM runs Ubuntu 16.04 which went EOL this past April. What is the timeline to get it updated?
Thanks

Hello,
agree, that at some point in time an update should happen.

Maybe I missed something, but what is the issue with end of maintenance if security updates are available until 2024?

Best regards,
Hannes

OK, so standard support and security updates ended in April. It looks like paid security updates are available through a paid Ubuntu program (which Veeam may be using).
If they are then great, no issue. If they arent, then. :)
