251 kes Implement Windows reparse points -- similar to directories, but
252 we do not descend into it. This is a first cut. They seem to
253 be backed up, but restore is not yet tested.
254 kes Remove restore_blocking in tls code when shutting a socket to leave
255 it in blocking mode. Hopefully this will fix the encryption bug
256 reported by Frank Sweetser.
257 kes When opening a file for backup, tell the OS that we are going to
258 read it sequentially -- optimization.

656 kes Correct usage of MTIOCLRERR ioctl for clearing persistant errors
659 kes The bgnome-console (gnome-console) and bwx-console (wx-console) are
660 deprecated. No additional bugs will be fixed, and they will be dropped
661 in a future release (probably 2.4.0).
662 kes Change name of wx-console to bwx-console to make it more Bacula
664 kes Change the name of gnome-console to bgnome-console to make it
667 kes Some time in March, a Feature Request with patch from Jorj Bauer
668 <jorj@seas.upenn.edu> was committed by Landon (with my approval).
670 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
671 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
672 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
673 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place
674 of hostname matching against the Certificate's CN. As an example, we
675 have certificates which (a) use a local CA, and (b) have a CN of the

718 ebl Check size and age of each file after its backup to see if
719 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
720 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
721 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
722 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
723 error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.

760 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
762 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
763 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
764 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
766 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
767 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
768 amount of duplicated code.
769 kes Do volume pruning only for the Media Type desired (reduces pruning time
770 if multiple Media Types are in the same pool).
771 kes Implement more detailed info in the Job report for the Bacula version
773 kes Switch from POOLMEM to POOL_MEM (a real class) in ua_prune.c and

843 kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
844 modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.
846 kes Correct virtual changer check which was backwards. This caused
847 volumes to be unloaded into slots already occupied.

860 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
861 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
863 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
864 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
865 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
867 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
868 than English. Fixes bug #788.
870 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.
872 You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.
873 It will be fixed soon.
874 If you want to use this, you can apply
875 trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
877 kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
878 no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
879 set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
880 ebl finish RecyclePool feature
881 Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
882 when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do
883 update volume=xxx frompool
884 To use it, add RecyclePool = aPool to your Pool resource
887 RecyclePool = Scratch
891 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
892 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
893 that returns more information and will make it easier
894 to interface to the Director from a program.
896 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
897 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
898 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
899 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
900 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
901 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
902 the Changer Command to an empty string.
904 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
905 in a single write() request rather than in two.
906 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
907 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool
909 kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files
910 to be truncated. This fixes bug #763.
911 kes Add FD event sequence order prepared by Eric -- for RunScripts.
912 kes Fix 12am/pm bug as reported in bug #782.
914 kes Apply Eric's ClientRunScriptAfter patch to 2.0 and 2.1.

919 was opened, it is closed.
921 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
922 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
923 in the case of orphaned records.
924 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
925 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
926 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
927 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
928 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
929 happens to the ScratchPool?
930 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
931 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
932 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
933 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
934 times are in Bacula units.
935 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
937 kes Update projects list.
939 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
940 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
941 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.
942 kes Fix dird/ua_cmds.c so that a cancel command checks if the
943 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
945 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
946 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
947 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
949 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
950 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
952 Switch to using Subversion
953 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
955 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
956 plus the entrypoints.
957 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
958 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
959 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
961 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
962 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
964 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
965 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
966 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
968 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
969 problem is with read or append.
971 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
972 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
973 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
974 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
975 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
976 (i.e. migration jobs).
977 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
978 a memory leak problem.
979 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
980 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
981 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
982 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
983 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
984 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
985 (hides some of the ugly casting).
986 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
987 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
988 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
989 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
990 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
991 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
992 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
993 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
994 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
996 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
998 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
999 kes Reorder projects file in order determined by Jan 2007 vote.
1000 kes Implement item #12 on project list -- quick release of FD by

1015 Fix problems with SHGetFolderPath.
1017 kes Create patches/2.0.1-restart.patch. Fixes bug #755.
1019 kes Fix Job restart on error bug that promotes an Inc to a Full
1020 backup. This should fix bug #755.
1021 kes Add qt-console and first cut of code.
1025 kes Fix Bacula->Documentation link on Win32 to point to index.html
1026 instead of bacula.html. Fixed bug #750.

1029 kes Do not release source pointers when restarting a failed job.
1031 kes Add dynamic dll entry point for SHGetFolderPath to Win32 code.
1032 This *should* fix bug #747.
1033 kes Modify winbacula.nsi to substitute with g bin_dir_cmd. Should fix
1036 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
1037 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
1038 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
1039 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
1040 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
1041 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
1043 kes Add code to indicate when the SD is spooling, spool wait, and
1044 despooling as requested by Alan Brown.
