RE: mysql schema & multiple snort versions & sensors

["Mike Arrison" <arrison () gnostech com>]

I'm not authoritative on the subject.  But in my experience, I could not get
1.8.3 working on top of the mysql schema from 1.8.1.  I had to blow away the
old schema and do the new one to get it to work.  If someone know otherwise,
please correct me, as I am interested in not having to blow away my db every
other upgrade.

Subject: [Snort-users] mysql schema & multiple snort versions & sensors


Hi,

I have multiple snort sensors.  They are running 1.8.1.  Now I would like to
add 1.8.3 snort on the next group of sensors.

Is the mysql DB schema backward compatible?

Or am I best off migrating all sensors to one release of snort, and
synchronizing with the mysql version?  (I believe Erek recommended rdist for
such snort distributions ).

Also, is it recommended to keep the OS hosting these sensors on the same
release as well?  Currently I have Red Hat 7.0, moving to 7.2

Apologies in advance if the schema question has been asked before - I
haven't been able to find it in my deja searches.  And as this environment
grows, I am searching for better ways to manage it.

Thanks,
Phil Lyons
