Sophos isn't going to put out any kind of up2date to go from v8 to v9 for software installs. Unfortunately for certain US entities covered by HIPAA and others federal regulations the loss of the logs is simply not an option. Most of my client base in 10 or less and my HIPAA covered entities are even smaller than that. The answer i get is, "run a syslog server". No thanks. Getting them to scrape for the protection of Astaro is enough i'm simply not going to ask them to pony up more money for another server simply to hold the logs for retention purposes. I hope Sophos will heed the two suggestions i've made..one is give us the ability to mass export the logs...do the reinstall..then re with everything intact. If they don't want to do the in-place upgrades to protect their appliance revenue that's fine...don't punish the rest of your smaller users by requiring a second server when it's not needed.
