[Test Environment] TiDB
[TiDB Version]
Using backup tool v6.0.0 to backup TiDB v7.0.0 results in an error.
[2023/05/17 20:00:09.047 +08:00] [ERROR] [main.go:58] [“br failed”] [error=“running BR in incompatible version of cluster, if you believe it’s OK, use --check-requirements=false to skip.: TiKV node 192.168.0.100:20161 version 7.0.0 and BR v6.0.0 major version mismatch, please use the same version of BR: [BR:Common:ErrVersionMismatch]version mismatch”] [errorVerbose="[BR:Common:ErrVersionMismatch]version mismatch\nTiKV node 192.168.0.100:20161 version 7.0.0 and BR v6.0.0 major version mismatch, please use the same version of BR\

You can skip it by using --check-requirements=false, but I couldn’t find any information in the official documentation about compatibility with v7.0, nor could I find where to download the v7.0 BR tool. Could someone please provide some guidance?

Add the corresponding version information.

Thank you for the reply.
It seems that the version I tested was too high. I checked and found that v7.0.0 is still a Development Milestone Release (DMR).
However, I successfully downloaded the v7.0.0 for testing.
wget https://download.pingcap.org/tidb-community-toolkit-v7.0.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz
But in my testing environment, v7.0.0 was extremely slow, and I’m not sure why. Later, I destroyed it and reinstalled v6.0.0, and everything went smoothly.
