Compatibility information
Bookmarks
Due to how bookmarks are now stored server-side, bookmark files (*.rbm) cannot be used directly in version 2.5 or superior.
You can use the import_bookmarks.py
script (in the Download
page of the Project Manager) to import rbm files to 2.5
bookmarks.
Resource compatibility
The following resources replayed in a version before 2.3 must be deleted and replayed:
Light OSSI/kernel_description
Backtrace/stack_events
Fast Search/binary_ranges
In order to do so:
- Open the Project Manager
- Click the Scenario Manager tab
- Click the name of the scenario you want to replay (scenarios with outdated resources are indicated by red and orange dots next to the scenario status)
- Click Replay
- Delete the resources, select them for replay and click replay.
General compatibility information
-
This version is backward compatible with artifacts from previous 2.x versions such as VMs, VM snapshots, scenario recordings and resources not listed above.
-
When replaying either the trace or the memory history for a QEMU scenario recorded pre-2.2.0, take care to replay both the trace and the memory history: due to a bug fix, traces may have their number of transitions increased by 1, or a modified last context.
-
Live QEMU snapshots created in a version before 2.1.0-beta may exhibit an undesirable mouse cursor behavior where the mouse cursor of the guest is displayed at a different position than the actual mouse cursor from the controlling host. Affected live snapshots must be removed and created again from a running VM.
