I've got some servers that are running Ubuntu Natty 11.04. This release is no longer supported and its repos have been taken offline (i.e. aptitude full-upgrade can do nothing), however, I've got update-manager-core installed and do-release-upgrade is offering to upgrade to Oneiric. Oneiric is also EOL, but its repos are still available so I do have a path to an LTS release.
So my question is, can Barracuda handle upgrading to new OS releases? It's not possible with a normal full-upgrade as it also requires changing all the repo sources. Alternatively, should I use the update manager to do the OS upgrade and then let Barracuda reinstall its own packages (nginx, php-fpm etc) afterwards?

Not sure if we can do
Not sure if we can do anything to provide such support (we don't use Ubuntu and I have no idea if they provide archived URLs for deprecated distros like Debian does) but it should be posted in the Barracuda issue queue.
So far Barracuda supports major system upgrades only for Debian LTS: Lenny->Squeeze and Squeeze-> Wheezy
