19 - Add Drive and InChanger to MEDIA_DBR record and to Volume update
21 - Reorganize the Volume info update from SD so that the Dir sends back the
22 current information in case the Volume status has changed by expiring.
23 The DIR-SD protocol is not backward compatible (must update).
24 - Fixed the signal handler to pass the signal to the exit_handler()
25 previously it passed 1.
26 - Modified SD so that on normal shutdown, it walks through all jcrs and
27 cancels them so that the Volume status will be updated in the catalog.
28 - Found and fixed a bug where ST_LABEL was not set in append mode
29 (when a different tape was accepted other than the original one

187 deleted, so delete them as soon as possible.
188 - Restore by file (or by selecting files) created some
189 horrible looking bsr files that defeated the forward
190 spacing code, so fix write_findex to work right.

193 - In filed/restore.c make sure all error returns cleanup
194 and close the open file descriptor.

531 interrupts (i.e. signals). This truncated output from child processes.
532 - Make file_index int32_t everywhere.
533 - Moved LinkFI into ATTR structure. Also integrated data_stream there too.
534 - Moved code that sets the stream for writing into create_file.
535 - Removed a signal(SIG_IGN, SIGCHLD) from dird.c that prevented getting
536 the status of child processes. This allowed removing the FreeBSD
537 kludge to bpipe.c -- the status is now obtained correctly.
538 - Hand scan the stream header that arrives in append.c to avoid machine
539 dependencies of sscanf().
540 - Implemented code to put Data stream in Attributes record.
541 - Check if data stream is supported, if not, ignore.
542 - Fix crash when multiple Includes are given (missing parens).
543 - Clear WroteVol in askdir.c when JobMedia record is created.
544 - Implement simple array list class for use in Bacula. New files
545 are lib/list.c lib/list.h. Probably will not use until version 1.32.
547 2003-06-24 Version 1.31 Beta 22Jun03
548 - Change Purging Oldest Volume message to Recycling Oldest Volume.
549 - Limit results from find_oldest_volume to one.
550 - Fix possible buffer overrun in the restore tree handling routines.
551 - Fixed a crash in VerifyToVolume because I moved the close_db()
552 down into the free_ua_context() and should not have done so.
553 - At a "var" command in the Console that does variable expansion and
555 - Implement first cut of estimate command.
556 - Change find_next_volume() for oldest to use LastWritten instead of
557 FirstWritten -- also add Append to volumes slected.
558 - Do normal recycling before checking for RecycleOldestVolume.
559 - Implemented block rejection on read. This should make restores run
560 much faster. Next release will have block positioning -- even faster.
561 - Very preliminary support for Gnome-2.0. Text does not yet work.
562 - Correct buffer corruption in find_one.c with long directory names (Win32).
563 - Make setting owner on directories M_ERROR rather than M_WARNING.
564 - Fix printing of JobId in run listing for restore job.
565 - Reduce heartbeat read check interval to every 10 seconds on Cygwin because
566 there is no working pthread_kill().
567 - I finally designed a test for multiple simultaneous jobs,
568 and sure enough it broke when the jobs are split over multiple
569 volumes. Now fixed and working!
570 - Eliminated a few "duplicate" error messages by testing for canceled.
571 - Add ASSERT for device use count going negative.
572 - Fix BlockNumber checking in stored/read.c (got first one wrong).
573 - If socket is timed out, do a shutdown(fd,2) instead of close().
574 - Fixed return status from SD to FD by setting JobStatus in append_end()
575 - Add arrays to Environment variables. Elements separated by |.
576 - Implement Reschedule On Error, Reschedule Interval, Reschedule Times.
577 - Add a new pool PM_NAME -- gets a name length buffer.
578 - Implement fast cancel of FD blocked on writing to SD by using
579 pthread_cancel(). Turned off on Cygwin due to bug.
580 - Add code to handle EAGAIN in writing (probably not necessary). Use
582 - Eliminate size_t from pool control buffers.
583 - Complete Counter resource.
584 - Complete LabelFormat (except for WrapCounter) plus counter
586 - This needs a database change to eliminate PoolId from counters.
587 - Made a more compact format for the document index.
588 - Add Phil's checkhost to examples directory (thanks Phil).
589 - Implement generalized LabelFormat (documentation to come).
590 - Implement Counter resource.
591 - Cleanup examples/kernsconfig
592 - Implement restore to a specific date.
593 - Fixed a but in automatic labeling (and use durations expiring) analysed
594 and reported by Rob Proffitt (thanks!).
595 - Cleaned up a few Cygwin compile problems.
596 - Made a 10Jun03 release (it is in production here)
597 - Finally took the big plunge and fixed restoration of links and other
598 files that have been changed between the backup and restore. Basically
599 if the file exists, it is deleted, then re-created.
600 - Purge only Volumes marked Append, Full, Used, or Error.
601 - Allow pruning of volumes marked Append, in addition to Full and Used.
604 2003-06-10 Version 1.31 Beta 10Jun03
605 - Eliminated all plain email addresses and replaced them with " at " in
606 place of @ to reduce havesting by spammers. Doc + Web Site.
607 - Started working on making POOLMEM a struct rather than a char. Lots of
609 - Fixed bscan to handle -V option.
610 - Fixed bscan to handle two File volumes.
611 - Corrected a misplaced comma it get_fileset() in cats pointed out by bscan.
612 - Added two Volume bscan test to regression scripts -- write two volumes,
613 purge and delete everything, bscan the tapes, and do a restore. It works!
614 - Reorganized the backup/restore code to move the attribute information into
615 an ATTR packet, which is passed in place of tons of arguments. Moved some
616 code into lib/attr.c and lib/attr.h. Then eliminated all the duplicate
618 - Moved FT_ types into baconfig.h.
619 - Defined FT_ types to use only 16 bits. The upper half of the word is
620 reserved for adding optional fields in the attributes packet.
621 - Moved jcr->where into common part of jcr and have it deleted in lib/jcr.c
622 - Put all attribute reading code on switch() with cases instead of a big
623 if (restore.c, bls.c, bextract.c, bscan.c, ...)
624 - set_attributes() now takes ATTR packet, and thus has much fewer args.
625 - moved print_ls_output() into lib/attr.c
626 - implemented is_stream_supported().
627 - create_file() now takes ATTR packet so has many fewer args.
628 - add mtime_only code.
629 - Rewrote bnet.c read and write routines to quit if bsock->terminated is
630 set. This will allow setting non-blocking writes and then receiving
631 a termination message and terminating the Job immediately rather than
632 waiting 2 hours for the line to timeout.
633 - Put catalog db name in some error messages.
634 - Code for restore is now much cleaner, with much of it in lib/attr.c,
635 and it is now common for all readers.
636 - Add first cut of proper support for Win32 Backup code.
637 - Fix bug in restore Win95/98/Me.
638 - Pass mtime_only flag to FD. Needs config record.
640 2003-06-04 Version 1.31 Beta 04Jun03
641 - Fix block.c to check errno only in case of return status -1 as
642 suggested by Justin Gibbs (FreeBSD).
643 - Implemented qfill command in btape for quick testing write/read of a tape.
644 - Discovered that FreeBSD pthreads re-use the same thread id, which causes
645 the SD to fail when a user leaves a device unmounted (old pid is reused
646 and lock_device() thinks the same thread is calling again leading to
647 inconsistent state). Set id to zero after blocking the device during
649 - A lot of clean up, moving subroutines around for TermCode.
650 - Free ua->prompt when Job terminates.
651 - Add AutoPrune and Recycle to values copied from Pool resource
652 into Pool record on create/updated.
653 - Implemented bsr for Verify VolumeToCatalog.
654 - Improved the Verify Job report using SD and FD term codes.
655 - Split tree handling routines from ua_restore.c to ua_tree.c
656 - Split bsr routines from ua_restore.c to bsr.c and bsr.h
657 - Fixed clash between FD and SD returned job values. Report now contains
658 values from FD. Maybe I should change? or give both.
659 - Attempt to fix negative use_count for dev packet in SD by adding
660 a couple of open_dev(). This may be cause of Dan's crash.
661 - Clear no_wait_id when device is unblocked. This may be cause of Dan's crash.
662 - Eliminate old "new lock code".
663 - Add configure of mtx-changer for mtx path.
664 - Always rewind tape before releasing it (for FreeBSD).
665 - StartBlock was one too large for second volume.
666 - Fixed restore to display status from both SD and FD.
667 - Unified return status message for backup and restore.
668 - Corrected segmentation fault reported by Dan when doing "label barcodes"
670 - Corrected a segmentation fault when attempting to send a JobMedia record
671 to the Console -- reported by Dan.
672 - Added MySQL documentation for using the threaded libraries.
673 - Added new columns and tables to Catalog database.
674 - Wrote alter scripts and tested them (thanks to Dan for the help) on
676 - Started using enums where ever possible when passing flags to
677 subroutines. This helps make the source much more readable.
678 - Corrected a bug where a vertical database listing was being used in
680 - Added new argument to parse_args() to prevent command arg overflow.
681 - Renamed ua_db_query.c ua_query.c.
682 - Split scan.c out of lib/util.c
683 - Perhaps I have *finally* fixed the command line history in gnome-console.
684 - Added support for smartalloc for any global new or delete command
685 by overloading the global operators.
686 - Made the default time with no qualifier day rather than seconds.
687 - Fixed a bug in the store_size() routine that improperly converted from
689 - Started using "bool" where possible.
690 - Zap SD session key once it is used.
691 - Added *lots* more checking for strcpy -- bstrncpy(), ...
692 - Added CreateTime field to FileSet record and print it to distinguish
694 - Print an information message when a new FileSet is created.
695 - Include the FileSet date/time in the Job report.
696 - Indicate if a Job is upgraded in the Job report and from what previous level.
697 - Incremented the database version.
698 - Ensure that any DB error message is printed if the start_time of a previous
700 - Free orphaned buffer in ua_restore.c in case of database error.
701 - Implement enum for response DISPLAY_ERROR and NO_DISPLAY
702 - Implement enum for create_pool (POOL_OP_CREATE, POOL_OP_UPDATE).
703 - Make sure FileSets printed in restore are in order.
704 - Add a number of bstrncat, and other protected string operations.
705 - Clean up old structs in dird_conf.h
706 - Remove all Slot invalidation code.
707 - Add Automatic choice message to all do_prompt() calls.
708 - Eliminate JobId from restore if not used.
709 - Clean up a few error messages.
710 - Make fill/unfill commands work correctly in btape.
711 - Enhance btape fill and unfill commands.
712 - Implement real Pmsg() code so that negative levels work in Dmsg()
713 - Implement block number check -- had to turn it off because it doesn't
714 work. Need to verify that it is the correct block and that block
715 numbers are properly written.
716 - Moved readline from depkgs1 to depkgs.
717 - Reworked the configure code to handle readline correctly. This was broken
718 mostly due to the fact that the readline routines are nested down one
719 directory. Also, I missed one header file that was needed (possibly added
721 - Put correct include on the dependencies make for Console readline.
722 - Remove JobMediaId from VOL_PARAMS (no longer needed).
723 - Sort VOL_PARAMS by JobMediaId using SQL in cats.
724 - Add jcr as argument to block.c read_block... routines so that error
725 messages are immediately displayed.
726 - Make bsr_dev() edit an error message if it is turned off and return 0.
727 - Add checking for the BlockNumber in the read routines -- lots of
728 false matches are found -- much check writing end.
729 - Now sort bsr volumes by JobMediaId -- produces better results.
730 - It turns out that under certain circumstances, when doing a restore, the
731 Volumes will not be written to the BSR in the correct order. I don't
732 know exactly why, but many thanks to Dan Langille for reporting this.
733 The solution is to sort the Vol_Params within each bsr (done), and to
734 sort the bsr chain (not yet implemented). Note, the bsr chain should
735 always be in order unless the user explicitly specifies the JobIds in
737 - Began implementing C++ structs rather than typedef structs as in C.
738 - Added volatile to a lot of variables that are used in two threads at
739 the same time. This should prevent improper optimization.
740 - Fixed a missing space in the "run job=xxx where=" the where was
741 glued to the end of the previous stuff (bootstrap filename).
742 - I *finally* found the cause of the mysterious failure of shell expansion.
743 It was due to the read() getting interrupted! That's what opening up
745 - Remove unused default tape drive names.
746 - Create a new status.c file in stored and split the status code out of dircmd.c
748 2003-05-22 Version 1.31 Beta 22May03
749 - I discovered that C++ permits "prototyping" structures e.g. struct A; is
750 a valid statement. This permitted me to eliminate all the void *jcr, in
751 favor of JCR *jcr, which pointed out a number of bugs in block.c.
752 - Change lib/bmisc.c to bsys.c (system routines).
753 - Add set_working_directory() to lib/util.c
754 - Remove some unneeded setjcr_job_status() since Jmsg(jcr, M_FATAL,...)
756 - Do not increment jcr->Errors for Fatal errors -- they represent non-fatal
758 - Fix a few more places in FD where Errors was not incremented.
759 - Print unexpected (or incorrect) termination message returned from FD.
760 - Use switch() instead of giant if statement in verify_vol.c
761 - Protect overrun from do_shell_expansion() by passing max length.
763 2003-05-20 Version 1.31 Beta 20May03
764 - Add mandrake to platforms
765 - Suppress error messages if no bytes written to tape.
766 - Suck up bootstrap file even on error so that Dir sees our error message.
767 - Pretty much finish off the Win32 backup code.
768 - Add DESTDIR code to autostart for creating non-root rpms
769 - Echo input read from a script in Console.
770 - Clarify error message for VerifyToCatalog
771 - Add error counts in restore for M_NOTSAVED.
772 - Adapt bfile.c to handle both Win95 files as well as WinXP files.
773 - Add MTIOCERRSTAT for FreeBSD (clear error status).
774 - Correct double jobmedia record when cancel at EOM reported by Phil.
775 - Correct possible write at beginning of tape during cancel at EOM
777 - Document in detail how Incremental and Differential jobs work.
778 - Add non-fatal error count on backup and restore Job reports.
779 - Remove a couple uses of lld -- now prefer to edit and use %s.
780 - Fix directory could not be accessed on Win32.
781 - Improve message indicating that last Full backup not found.
782 - Fix free() too early in directory traversal code.
783 - Prune Jobs with no JobFiles or that have JobStatus!='T'
784 - Add a few more command line scans for prune/purge.
785 - Restrict valid characters in a Volume name, and document it.
786 - Make new Win32 save/restore work. Still a bit more to do.
787 - Use reentrant version of mysqlclient library.
788 - Use more machine independent way of finding gcc version.
789 - Fix race condition in sql_list where messages edited before locking.
790 - Lots of testing saving/restoring 6GB files.
791 - Add where to restore where=/tmp
792 - Complete implementation of Win32 streams in FD. Must test. Also,
793 must implement new streams in SD.
794 - Make termination of daemons more "error" tolerant.
795 - Make default "duration" days rather than seconds if there is no modifier.
797 - Add detection of available Win API's so that a single binary will
798 work on all Windows systems. Reference those APIs through a pointer.
799 - Remove use_win_backup_api and enable it in bfile.c if system supports it.
800 - Modify dev.c so that it works if MTEOM is not defined (BSDI).
801 - Change MT_xxx to BMT_xxx to prevent conflicts with BSDI.
802 - Detect strtoll() in configure.
803 - Implement replacement for strtoll() for BSDI.
804 - Add platform files for BSDI.
805 - Use Jmsg() instead of Jmsg1() in acquire because File:line prefixed in dev.c
806 - Use Jmsg() in write_block_to_dev() so that no messages are lost.
807 - Rework autochanger code in restore to handle case of cassette not in magazine.
808 - Implement Windows BackupRead/Write(). I now have permissions right!!!!
809 - Additions to the manual (Purging, Autopruning).
810 - Add doc to code in autoprune.
811 - Begin adding Level = Base.
812 - Make Jmsg recognize console and direct messages directly back to it.
813 - Hopefully fix mess in mount.c when a tape expires.
814 - Fix restore bug recently introduced due to Unix backwards status convention.
815 - New bacula.spec from Scott

817 - Eliminate SubSysDirectory in each daemon conf file.
818 - Implement get_yesno() and get_pint() in UA.
819 - Make Jmsg aware of console. Messages now sent directly to Console.
820 - Created a single bacula.spec.in for by the MySQL and SQLite builds.
821 - Added proper configuration to console.in and gconsole.in
822 - Start adding textdomain() code for translating.
823 - A number of minor code cleanups.
824 - Rework shell expansion just a bit.
825 - Add rewind() when releasing a tape before acquiring the next one.
826 - Implement addition of Description in Service entry for Win32.
827 - Update manual to eliminate unclear autochanger points as mentioned
829 - Implement DESTDIR everywhere.
830 - Rework spec files for 1.31 and combine the main spec and the client
831 only spec making a client package. At the same time, rename the packages
832 so it is a bit clearer to the user. Also fix the build to work
833 as non-root (scriptdir was not prefixed with $RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
834 - Correct Auto Changers and all other forms to Autochangers in the
836 - John reported needing to do two "mount" requests, and indeed that
837 was the case. It turns out that pthread_cond_timedwait() does not
838 always return zero when awaken by a pthread_cond_signal().
839 - Include RunBeforeJob and RunAfterJob output in job output report.
840 - Implement a "real" Admin job that prints a mini-job report.
841 - Clean up a few error messages in findlib and filed.
842 - Recent changes to gnome-console caused initial output to be
844 - The Win32 version crashed after each job. After hours, it turns out
845 that when running with LocalSystem privilege (and not as a user), when
846 Cygwin does pthread_kill(id, SIGUSR2), it gets a memory fault.
847 - Moved stored/fdmsg.c to lib/bget_msg.c, and moved SD messages to
848 stored.c. So now bget_msg() can be used by both the SD and FD.
849 - Changed Director's bget_msg() to be called bget_dirmsg() to avoid
850 any possible confusion.
851 - Implemented bget_msg() in general everywhere in the FD except for
852 job.c where the Dir and FD are communicating.
853 - Implemented a Director only heartbeat in the FD for the cases where
854 there is either no connection to the SD or the FD is already reading
855 from the SD. start_dir_heartbeat() ...
856 - Add heartbeat to restore and verify volume.
857 - Add "Heartbeat Interval" to Storage resource, which sets interval the
858 SD sends heartbeats to the FD and DIR, 0 disables heartbeats.
859 - Add "Heartbeat Interval" to FileDaemon resource, which sets the interval
860 the FD sends heartbeats to the DIR, 0 disables heartbeats.
861 - Added heartbeat from FD to Dir every HB_TIME rather than forwarding
863 - First cut label dialog.
864 - Turn on new semaphore code for simultaneous Jobs.
865 - Fix cancel trying to release semaphore's not acquired.
866 - Implement get_pint() and get_yesno() for UA.
867 - Implement find_arg_with_value() for UA.
868 - All command line "slot" to be specified for label command.
869 - Rework heartbeat code in FD to correctly terminate.
870 - Fix btraceback to use smtp and to eliminate double //
871 - Fix "storage" command to include ssl for verify and restores.
872 - Add Heartbeat code when SD is waiting on a tape -- heartbeat every 20 mins
873 to keep stateful firewalls from timing out the connections.
874 - Fix src/stored/Makefile.in typo causing problems in statically linking
875 btape. Thanks to Lutz for reporting this.
876 - Create an is_client_alive script for checking if a client is alive.
877 Using this script prevents generating error messages.
878 - Added corrections and updates to manual provided by Phil -- thanks.
879 - Added RequireSSL to each program/daemon configuration.
880 - Added EnableSSL to each correspondent for each program.
881 - Added the Console resource to the Director (need to
882 implement individual Console authorization).
884 2003-04-28 Version 1.30 released
885 - Fix command history for gnome-console (must malloc).
886 - Add two cancel points in acquire_resources(). The job will not
887 be immediately terminated in all cases.
888 - The new AutoMount code broke File archives -- fixed.
889 - Correct watchdog mutex race introduced yesterday.
890 - Add JobLevel to Admin run started by UA.
891 - Add -v to daemon startup scripts
892 - Implement bmicrosleep(sec, msec);
893 - Implement When for "run" command.
894 - Remove unsigned from socklen_t definition in hopes it will work better
896 - Remove code that attempts to set PID dir and SUBSYS dir if they
897 do not exist because it set them to sbindir!
898 - Modify mount to initially attempt to read the volume if Bacula
899 wants a tape, none is mounted, and "Automatic Mount = yes" is set.
900 - Prohibit setting --sbindir and --with-subsys-dir the same.
901 - Fix missing argument that cause Kaboom in update slots.
902 - Fix orphaned bsock when UA gets error contacting FD or SD
903 - Nearly full implementation of Win Backup API, but it does not
904 work due to lack of permission! Arggg!
905 - Implemented restoring directory permissions as they should be.
906 - Implemented reasonable regression script. It found a number of
908 - Implemented the following @ commands in the console that work directly
909 in the console rather than in the Director.
910 input - read input from a file
911 output - write output to file
912 tee - tee output to file and terminal
913 time - print current time
914 version - print current version
917 - Implemented new bfile io routines that will permit implementation of
918 Windows native APIs for reading/writing files.
919 - By default always update hard links with the prefix, but do
920 not update soft links. It seems inconsistent, but it is what
922 - Implement wait command in Console that waits until no jobs are running.
923 - Fixed the < code in Include/Excludes, which forgot to skip over the <.
924 - Do NOT attempt to chmod() a soft link as it will change the file behind
926 - OOPS! Lutz ran into a problem. In attempting to prevent string overflows,
927 I used bstrncpy() on a variable that was malloc'ed thus truncating
928 Volume names! Arrrggggg!
929 - Lots of documentation of new features.
930 - Rework Volume name scanning in console, made much more logical
931 and corrected a bug (confusion in calling sequence).
932 - Cleaned up a few error messages in cats adding more info.
933 - Add the IP address to error messages due to bad connects to servers.
934 - Implement default File output in config files so user can start
935 saving right away without a tape drive.
936 - Protect inet_ntoa() with mutex in case it is not thread safe.
937 - Eliminate termcap from use in gnome console.
938 - Remove unused SD maximum volume files and maximum volume jobs. They
939 are implemented in the Director.
940 - Make the default for Incremental and Differential saves to compare
941 against both st_mtime and st_ctime rather than just st_mtime.
942 This includes files moved or copied.
943 Thanks to Matthias Wamser for bringing this fix to our attention.
944 - On Win32 clients, make a pass through the include/exclude patterns
945 and change any back slashes to foward slashes. Prevents creating
946 unusable directory names containing both conventions.
947 - Move ls -l output on restored files to M_RESTORED class.
948 - Make gnome-console compile correctly on RH8.0
949 - label barcodes now works.

951 - Tweak btape "test" to always print suggestion for re-read last block.
952 - Implemented "Cleaning Prefix"
953 - Update alter_mysql_tables.in
954 - More work on barcodes.
955 - Zap VolHdr in SD when attempting to label a tape that is not
956 there. Prevents false tape names the next label command.
957 - First cut of bar code reading is implemented. It doesn't do
958 anything but return the list to the Director.
959 - Implemented relabel command that relabels "Purged" Volumes.
960 - Check exit code in RunBeforeJob and err the job if it is non-zero.
961 - Remove old testsuite -- too complicated
962 - Print length when Authorization fails because of bad length.
963 - Fix problem of NumVols in Pool getting reset on startup.
964 - Implement full listing of DB records by listing them vertically
965 instead of horizontally.
966 - Make changes to mysql scripts as suggested by Lutz Kittler
967 - Fixed code to write Uname to Client record.
968 - Fixed a problem (in btape) where Pmsg() was not printing.
969 - Moved re-read last block test to last in "test" command of btape.
970 - Lots of new documentation.
971 - Fixed newvol.c to handle retrying 10 times if the volume name already exists.
972 - Removed int_least16_t from sha1.h because it does not exist on some systems.
973 - Release job in SD if canceled and waiting on a mount (better cancellation).
974 - Prompt for Client in restore if not specified.
975 - Print "Selection is empty!" if no selection list found.
976 - Add new spec files and bacula.desktop from Scott.
977 - Update client every time a job is run.
978 - Add verbose option to daemons for printing more user error info.
979 - Test if console works with readline 4.3 (yes, it is OK).
981 - Release new winbacula.
982 - Add Uname info to Client DB record.
983 - Improve error messages and make them more consistent when a non-existent
985 - Separated the -mwindows option so that only Windows programs
986 are built with it (bacula-fd, ...) the tty tools such as console
987 dbcheck, smtp, testfind, ... are now able to be run in a standard
989 - Add | and < options to Exclude the same as in Include.
990 - Add typed in input to the text window in the gnome-console.
991 - Change function that gets the entry text (previously had orphaned buffer).
992 - Fix multiple Director problem in gnome-console (thanks to Lutz Kittler).
993 - Thanks to Renato, I was able to test Bacula on a FreeBSD tape drive.
994 There are a number of significant differences: 1. reading less than
995 the number of bytes in a record returns an I/O error. 2. ioctl(MTEOM)
996 looses the file position. 3. Reading two two EOF marks (or ioctl(MTEOM))
997 leave you positioned after the second EOF, so you must backspace file
998 to be able to append.
999 - Added BSF at EOM = yes/no to Device resource to allow proper positioning
1000 at the end of a FreeBSD tape.
1001 - Made btape "test" do much better testing of error conditions (i.e.
1002 it now ensures that the append went well). It will automatically
1003 detect problems and apply fixes and then retry the test, if it
1004 finally succeeds, it clearly says what directives need changing.
1005 - Add Scott Barninger's rpm changes to the build environment
1006 - Add changes to mtx-changer so users can add eject and sleep for
1007 certain autochangers.
1008 - Implemented FreeBSD chflags (user defined flags).
1009 - Turn restore errors during setting of owner and modes into
1010 warning messages -- for restoring files as non-root.
1011 - Fix how prefixes are handled in restoring soft links.
1012 - Modified btape "test" command to do only those things that
1013 Bacula actually does. There is much more explanation, ...
1015 - Finally had to back up to gcc version 2 from version 3 to avoid version
1017 - Final cygwin tweaks.
1018 - Move start time to *after* the resource locks are acquired.
1019 - Unable to duplicate Phil's disabling of Bacula with nmap, but
1020 did make the authentication code a bit more conservative for
1021 dealing with bad input.
1022 - Added code to the query command to escape all strings input
1023 before substitution and sending to the SQL engine.
1024 - Escape user entered filenames for restore command.
1025 - Cleaned up the waiting code a bit -- using broadcast instead
1026 of signal and counting the waiters.
1027 - Implement new pthreads semaphore code.
1028 - #define new semaphore code rather than workq on USE_SEMAPHORE.
1029 - Lots of improvements to the document to address recent support requests.
1030 - Implement cycle through a set of tapes suggested by Eugeny
1031 Fisher with the "RecycleOldestVolume=yes" record in the
1032 Pool resource. Basically this record causes Bacula to purge
1033 to oldest tape when no more tapes are found.
1034 - Correct a number of small incorrect interactions between limit
1035 variables during recycling.
1036 - Corrected a bug in db_create_media_record() where VolMaxFiles and
1037 VolMaxJobs was not written to the database.
1038 - When the Director starts, the Pool record is updated in the
1039 database with the current contents of the Pool resource.
1040 - Corrected bnet_connect() to immediately stop (rather than looping
1041 for the timeout period) if there is a fatal error (socket, or
1043 - Reworked "purge" code to make purging Volumes easier.
1044 - Made "list volumes" list the volumes in all pools -- also
1045 "list volumes pool=Default" does not produce and error message.
1046 - List Pool record after doing "update pool".
1047 - Remove pid file code from Win32 -- not really necessary.
1048 - Make bnet handle null jcr during cancel rather than crash.
1049 - Add CygwinInstall.bat and CygwinUnInstall.bat
1050 - Add db_lock() around newvol.c code to prevent race condition if multiple
1051 callers want a new Volume name.
1052 - Lots of cleanup to Win32 code, with additional error messages.
1053 - Make Bacula work on Win95 (test for GetAttributesEx).
1054 - Add better error messages when end of media is reached or volume
1056 - Turned off signal catching in readline(), necessary to keep console
1057 from crashing on ctl-Z with RedHat 8.0. Thanks to David Craigon for
1059 - Make the 3rd and hopefully final change to the Finclude structures.
1060 This new version permits multiple sets of options (more code to be
1061 written) to be applied against the same set of files. Thus one can
1062 have options that with match of *.gz and a different set of options
1064 - Integrated GNOME Console font resource code supplied by Phil Stracchino.
1065 - Check for job_cancelled() in bnet_connect() code to stop wait loop if
1066 client not available.
1067 - Fix early end of file scanning conf file in lex.c, which previously
1068 caused ABORT -- now reports error. This could happen with an unterminated
1070 - Move Maximum File Size code before write and detect error on writing EOF.
1071 - Additional fix for Solaris 2.6 and a bdb.c fix submitted by Armin Buehler.
1072 - Added detection for Solaris 2.6, which uses older setsockopt() calls.
1073 - Defined sockopt_val_t for setsockopt() calls.
1074 - Added fixes sent by Bevan Anderson that fix multiple connects to FD
1075 (I zap keys for security, so must put back dummy key). Also a fix
1076 to the Internal database that wrote garbage after the filename in
1078 - Back out the __SVR4 changes.
1079 - Add automatic configuration of socklen_t
1080 - Attempt to fix problems reported by Lutz with multiple simultaneous
1081 open file Volumes (experimental code). Serialized acquire. This may
1082 fix the problem, but more thought and testing is necessary.
1083 - Add table of "supported" autochanger models.
1084 - Add Solaris 2.6 (__SRV4) changes sent by Peter Schmitz.
1085 - Correct tape selection code in SD (|| => &&). Thanks to Chuck Hemker
1087 - Eliminate FileOptions. Implement new Finclude and Fexclude that
1088 have file options contained in it. New structure must be transmitted
1090 - Split Include/Exclude into new inc_conf.c file.
1091 - Cleanup new Include/Exclude and FileOptions. Structures in Director
1092 now correct. Must transmit FileOptions to FD.
1093 - WARNING: With the adddress and port code in the Catalog you MUST
1094 remove old address= and dport= records!!!!!
1095 - Added code to remove cancelled jobs from the workq -- needs testing.
1096 - Added first cut AIX from output James MacLean sent me.
1097 - Second cut of FileOptions.
1098 - First cut of parsing FileOptions and Counters.
1099 - Added address:port for MySQL as well as socket for local access.
1100 - Fixed job.c in filed to properly handle excluded files. Apparently
1101 I changed the daemon protocol but forgot to update the code.
1102 - Enhance testfind to handle include and exclude files
1103 - Fix getdomainname() prototype for Darwin
1104 - Added new -u and -g options for specifying userid and groupid to
1105 use when running, so that Bacula can reduce its privileges.
1106 - When Bacula was hanging due to an NFS volume being down, I
1107 fixed a few places in the File daemon where is should have immediately
1108 terminated the connection instead of waiting for the Director to do so.
1109 - Added first cut support for Darwin.
1110 - Temporarily comment out the O_NOFOLLOW to avoid possible subtle problems.
1111 - Implemented O_NOFOLLOW in creating files in create_file.c to prevent
1112 creating a file at the end of a symbolic link.
1113 - Use chown() if lchown() does not exist (e.g. Darwin).
1114 - Always close stdin on startup to avoid having /dev/console attached.
1115 - Change all DATE occurrences to BDATE because it is used by Cygwin headers.
1116 - Add printing of Volume names in SD status output.
1117 - Display all open devices in device chain in SD status output.
1118 - All changing Pool in console run command.
1119 - Thanks to Eric Bollengier for pointing out that the run_program()
1120 return status was not correctly generated. Now fixed (I hope).
1121 - Corrected crash in Internal Database getting Volumes.
1122 - Flush all daemon messages at the end of every job.
1123 - Fix Install.bat script so that Bacula restarts after reboot on WinNT/2K systems.
1124 - Minor changes in the gnome-console directory.
1125 - Integrated in my old Tcl/Tk code into src/tconsole and moved it up
1126 from C to C++. Pretty crude, but it is a beginning.
1127 - Close syslog() %n exploit in message.c
1128 - Edit space before each line in gconsole.
1129 - Added INCEXE structure so we can have FileOptions.
1130 - Added support for multiple simultaneous open file volumes.
1131 - Fix hard linked files so that the one saved is always restored.
1132 - Add * to restore "dir" listing to indicate marked files.
1133 - Add ability to make md5sum and sha1sum in lib directory.
1134 - Work a bit more on the new daemon protocol.
1135 - Use unmask of 022 or more restive
1136 - Create File volumes with 0640 permissions
1137 - Added support for SHA1 signature. Need to modify DB to have type.
1139 - Work a bit on getting proper child status from bpipe calls.
1140 - Added Ludwig's mtx-changer to the examples/devices directory.
1141 - Added a Warning not to use the Internal Database when it is initialized.
1142 - Compiled and tested SHA1, and added it to the library.
1143 - Added code to print the "load slot" status after autoloading.
1145 =============================================================================
1146 2003-01-24 Version 1.29 released
1148 - Tightened up permissions on all .conf files to be 640 so they are not
1151 - Added prefixlinks=yes/no Job record to specify applying the Where
1152 prefix to absolute soft links. Code is not yet passed to FD, because
1153 FD would then be incompatible with version 1.28.
1154 - Added skeleton of installation for Gentoo release for Patrick Naubert.
1155 - Add timer on open() for reading or writing a FIFO file.
1156 - Put btraceback and btraceback.gdb in sysbin dir (a bit of polution,
1157 but at least dumps will work).
1159 - Added "append" all messages to a log to default bacula-dir.conf
1160 - Added WriteBootstrap to default bacula-dir.conf
1161 - Made smartall.c print "Out of memory" if malloc() fails.
1162 - Added pthread btimer routines.
1163 - Added timer to FIFO open statement
1164 - George was still having problems with VolUseDuration failing.
1165 On looking into it, one line of code subtracting 1900 was
1166 mysteriously missing from the source -- bizarre.
1168 - Yesterday's version corrects all the problems I was
1169 previously having, and my production jobs are now completing
1171 - Added a #define dev_cap() to test the capabilities bits. I just
1172 makes the code a bit shorter and a bit simpler.
1173 - Added phase 1 support for an output fifo device. The big
1174 difference here is that it is a STREAM device, which means that
1175 Bacula will only write to it and not read. Thus, Bacula assumes
1176 that the correct "Volume" is mounted and will construct a valid
1177 label (without needing the Volume to be prelabeled), and write
1179 - Added phase 1 support for input from fifo device (suppress re-read,
1180 add empty buffer flag).
1182 - Improve printout of dbcheck with # files/path fixing.
1183 - Zap SD authorization code after use.
1184 - Added <> back to smtp (think about this some)
1187 - Massive change to add jcr as the first argument to nearly
1188 every db_ call. This is because I was storing the jcr in the
1189 db structure, which will not work because everyone shares
1190 exactly the same structure.
1191 - More cleanups of error termination status in filed.
1192 - Found another bug in message.c where %s was missing in JmsgN. A lot
1193 of cleanup in message.c
1194 - Found places where filename listing was made (restore, verify
1195 vol) where the buffer could possibly overrun.
1196 - Chain include files on the end of the list so that the
1197 order will be correct.
1198 - Rewrote mtx-changer to output one slot per line terminated by
1199 a colon followed by an optional Volume Tag for the "list" command.
1200 Preparation for handling Volume Tags.
1201 - My production crash remains elusive. Adding debug code or running
1202 under the debugger eliminates the problem. I found a case in
1203 message.c where I was extending the message string by two
1204 characters to send it to the console. VERY BAD. Rewritten.
1205 - Started implementing fifo and program handlers (i.e. streams)
1206 in the Storage daemon. Lots to do.
1207 - Added a trace capability where trace statements are written
1208 to a file. Tmsg(). Hopefully this won't be used much.
1209 - Running lots of "production" saved by scheduling a few minutes
1210 after the current time -- slow process ...
1212 - Removed <> on From and To in smtp.c as suggested by James MacLean.
1213 - Added code to suppress spurious error messages during cancel,
1214 but I was unable to eliminate all errors -- to be worked
1216 - Up size of print buffer from 2000 to 5000.
1217 - My production run failed again. I'm beginnig to suspect
1218 hardware problems because running by hand or under the
1219 debugger always works -- we will see.
1220 - Added Update Volume VolFiles to reset correct tape files
1222 - Use the mysql_escape_string() rather than internal version.
1224 - Cleanup handling of JobStatus by creating a subroutine.
1225 - Fix a number of minor things with JobStatus.
1226 - Print FD and SD JobStatus on backup report.
1227 - Add JCR to findlib -- so now FD stops normally when cancelled.
1228 - My production Director segment faulted during the second Job.
1229 I haven't been able to track it down. After rebuilding, all
1230 jobs finished correctly.
1231 - In investigating the duplicated Paths, I found that there
1232 were 10,552 of them -- only Path records. After checking the
1233 code, I do not see the reason, but I've enhanced the code to
1234 print the full path name.
1235 - I made a few improvements to tools/dbcheck. Mostly it provides
1236 a bit more feedback with verbose mode on when eliminating
1237 duplicate filenames or paths.
1239 - During four simultaneous backups, the File daemon started
1240 detecting buffer corruptions. It turns out to be due to the
1241 fact that the smartall.c routines were not thread safe. They
1243 - Based on input from James MacLean and team, I eliminated a number
1244 of places where printf could be recursively called by using "%s".
1245 - It turns out that because of an error of my understanding of
1246 mysql_escape_string(), the last argument was taken as the length
1247 of the string to be escaped rather than the maximum length. I've
1248 now corrected all my code -- Thanks James.
1250 - George Motter reported problems with UseDurations, and it seems
1251 that there were a number of inconsistencies and problems with
1252 FirstWritten and LastWritten. Hopefully for the most part they
1253 are now corrected. Also fixed LabelDate if done through Console.
1254 - Try to chase down reasons why there would be buffer overruns.
1255 Added P & V around referencing last_fname for status.
1256 Rewrote find_one.c with MEMPOOL, but not yet tested enough
1259 - Give extra margin to converting filenames from Unix to Windows
1260 in attribs.c of findlib -- dumb cygwin API doesn't provide for
1262 - Added file:line traceback to size_of_pool_memory, check... and
1263 realloc in an attept to get closer to the memory overrun reported
1266 - Made yet another fix to quoted string -- paths! Thanks to
1267 Scott Medlock for reporting this.
1268 - Made | and < work.
1269 - Implemented FIFO reading/writing. To do so, simply explicitly mention
1270 the fifo file (named pipe) in the Include AND add the new option
1273 - Started implementing | and < on Include names.
1274 - Changed source to . in cats directory as requested by Andrew Kokarev.
1276 =============================================================================
1277 2003-01-05 Version 1.28b released
1278 - Corrected a typo of working_directory in bacula-dir.conf
1279 reported by James MacLean.
1280 - Fixed the fact that path and filenames in some cases were not
1281 being quoted before going into the database. Many thanks to
1282 James MacLean for reporting this.
1284 =============================================================================
1285 2003-01-05 Version 1.28a released
1286 - Corrected a missing quote in bacula-dir.conf reported by James MacLean
1288 =============================================================================
1289 2003-01-05 Version 1.28 released
1291 - Implemented Bare Metal Recovery for Linux and manual procedures for Solaris
1292 - Now using only a single technotes file kes-1.28 and will add to
1293 it as the development goes on.
1294 - Wrote a general purpose bi-directional pipe command. This replaces
1295 previous use of pipes as well as the run_program previously used.
1296 - Make BSRs stop if no more matches are possible.
1297 - Allow unliminted number of devices in Storage daemon.
1298 - Allow connections to Storage daemon before all devices are initialized.
1299 - Better documentation (and btape test command) on using fixed block
1302 Changes submitted this submission:
1304 - Add cygreadline5.dll to Win32 release -- needed for console
1306 - Add scripts make_catalog_backup and delete_catalog_backup that makes and
1307 deletes an ASCII copy of the catalog for backup. An example of how
1308 to use it is in the <bacula-src/src/dird/bacula-dir.conf file.
1309 - Made a nicer column oriented listing of scheduled jobs for "status dir".
1311 - Added backup/restore of raw partitions.
1312 - Corrected restoration of files in root directory (problem with
1313 splitting path from file).
1315 - Finally decided to cleanup handling of splitting path and filenames
1316 in the cats directory. Now the code is in one place sql.c and it
1317 is done using Pool memory, so there are no length restrictions.
1319 - Add start of Solaris bare metal recovery
1320 - Add Site Visit usage statistics to Web page
1321 - Got Bacula listed on www.backupcentral.com
1323 - Retest bare metal recovery on Linux 2 times with verify
1324 - Cleanup printout of verify differences using proper casting to
1325 handle shorts and long longs.
1327 - Added --enable-client-only to ./configure
1328 - Modified --enable-static-sd to work better and documented it.
1329 - Fixed Restore options (never,ifnewer, ...). They now work.
1330 - Moved the stored.c Resource lock into the allocation thread so
1331 that the same thread sets/clears it. This created a problem on
1334 - Added more rescue documentation.
1335 - Did a spell check of the Bacula doc.
1336 - Modified bscan to use the working directory as specified in the
1337 configuration file as the default.
1339 - Fixed an important bug reported by George Motter that caused only
1340 the last option on an Include record to be used (all previous options
1343 - Chase down some inconsistencies in creating Media records from
1344 the Pool defaults, and in updating/creating the Pool from the
1345 resource. Also fixed the cats DB routines to include all
1346 fileds (VolUseDuration was missing for example).
1348 - Added building static versions of daemon static-bacula-dir, ...
1349 - Fine tuned the rescue (bare metal) code including support for grub.
1350 - Added skeleton freebsd rescue
1351 - Corrected SQL syntax error in autoprune code (JobType => Type).
1352 - Added error messages for SQL errors in autopruning.
1354 - Documented Bare Metal Recovery
1355 - Create new "rescue" directory containg the Bare Metal Recovery code.
1356 - Fiddle with SQL a bit for pruning as apparently the last InitCatalog
1357 was pruned after the expiration date eventhough it was the ONLY copy!
1358 I'm not sure this is fixed yet.
1360 - Allow Director to pass a NUL where string to FD (fix in FD).
1361 - Fix installation mv of query.sql.
1362 - Make sure btraceback.gdb is not wiped on "make distclean"
1363 - Corrected a bug in mod of replace options pointed out by Dave Anderson.
1365 - Started adding FileOptions ...
1366 - Fixed and incorrect print out of the number of files restored (Jarif).
1367 - Finally fixed EndBlock (and file address for Files) in catalog!
1368 - Added hostname to tape header as always planned.
1369 - Removed Level code (will not implement unless strong demand exists).
1370 - Tweaked bscan to print number of errors ignored before first SOS.
1371 - Enhanced btape "fill" to permit using one tape and to dump last
1372 block before writing and upon read back.
1373 - Make fsf_dev() return 0 on fail and 1 on success.
1374 - Use new db_get_job_volume_parameters() to enhance Write Bootstrap to
1375 contain more info (start/end file/block, file indexes).
1376 - Added --enable-static-fd, sd, and dir to configuration to enable making
1377 static versions of the daemons.
1379 - The btape test program was indicating errors on Adrian's machine
1380 using the ATAPI (ide-scsi) tape drive. It turns out that this
1381 is a fixed block driver as a consequence, Bacula must be setup
1382 to write fixed blocks. btape was not always using the fixed
1383 blocks defined in the Bacula config, so that has been updated.
1384 It now works fine. A lot of tips added to the Bacula test command
1385 to help guide the user.
1386 - Documentation of the above significantly improved in the manual.
1388 - Added code in watchdog to permit setting and clearing child timers. If
1389 the timer expires, the child process is killed.
1390 - Modified restore to handle differential jobs.
1391 - Added a new test to the btape "test" command
1393 - More documentation of new features (week position in scheduler, bsr).
1394 - Re-read last block written on full tape to verify it.
1395 - Fix segmentation fault with btape fill command due to missing FileSet MD5.
1397 - Created better SQL input editing routines str_to_int64 and str_to_uint64()
1398 - Pull Client from database in Console restore command.
1399 - Create a Unique list of Volumes to be mounted (previously had repeats).
1400 - Made many of the SQL searches better by using the ClientId rather than the name
1401 in the restore Console command.
1402 - Modified reading of a tape to include the VolFile info. Once the
1403 tape is past the specified file, reading stops. The BSR now includes
1404 both the VolFile and VolBlock. Currently VolBlock is not used.
1405 - Handle multiple volumes better by creating a real volume list with all
1407 - Display "At prompt waiting for input" in gnome console when at subcommand
1409 - Broke ascii to internal and internal to string editing routines out into
1410 new lib/edit.c file.
1412 - Added a readme and an afs-bacula script to the examples directory
1413 that permits Bacula to backup an AFS filesystem. Thanks to
1414 Lucas Mingarro for the submission.
1415 - Added A Sun-desktop autoloader script and Device definition to the
1416 examples/devices subdirectory. Thanks to Lucas Mingarro for the
1418 - If the WriteBootStrap fails, the job will now be marked in error.
1419 - Added a week position to the scheduler syntax that allows you to
1420 specify 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or 4th, or first, ... fifth as a week
1421 position specification in front of a day. So if you say
1425 the scheduler will start only on the first sunday of the month. The
1426 day specification can also be a day range e.g. sun-fri.
1427 This code is untested.
1428 - Implemented bpipe.h and bpipe.c in src/lib, which defines a bi-directional
1429 pipe. This allows executing other programs and sending them information
1430 as well as getting info from them.
1431 - Replaced the previous pipe usage with bpipes in RunBeforeJob and
1433 - The mail program now uses bpipes rather than pipes, which means that any
1434 error output will appear in the job output (truly bi-directional).
1435 - Modified BSR to handle counts and to stop when no more matches are possible.
1437 - Improved error messages in smtp.
1439 =============================================================================
1440 2002-12-12 Version 1.27d
1441 - This is a minor update that fixes a segmentation fault in btape
1442 as well as reduces non-important error messages in bscan.
1444 2002-11-29 Version 1.27c
1445 - Yet another silly error duplicating a column name in the SQLite
1446 make tables. No code change, just a make file.
1448 2002-11-29 Version 1.27b
1449 - Set DB version to 5 in DB make files.
1451 2002-11-28 Version 1.27a
1452 - Use g++ instead of gcc for testfind in tools
1454 2002-11-27 Version 1.27 (26Nov02) released 28 November 2002
1456 General: from kes25Nov02
1457 - Mostly Cygwin changes
1459 Changes submitted this submission:
1460 - Updated bdb_find.c to have new calling sequence for db_find_job_start_time
1461 - dird/catreq.c edit in Volume name in error messages to SD
1462 - attribs.c switch to using the cygwin API to convert from POSIX paths
1463 to Win32 paths. This now permits Win32 path specifications in Include
1464 statements (all combinations not yet tested). It also avoids the large
1465 number of errors seen by Lutz if a Win32 path is specified in the Dir.
1466 - Update testfind help and remove set_attribsEx debug code.
1467 - Build testfind as default.
1468 - Turn off debug message in stored/askdir.c
1470 General: from kes21Nov02
1471 - Another change in the database. You MUST either re-initialize
1472 your database or use the appropriate ./alter_xxx_tables in
1473 the src/cats directory.
1475 Changes submitted this submission:
1476 - Additional documentation.
1477 - Added MaxVolFiles to the database (not yet implemented in code).
1478 - Increased the database version from 3 to 4.
1479 - Change VolMaxBytes to MaxVolBytes, which is much more descriptive.
1480 - Compressed unnecessary spaces out of a lot of SQL statements.
1481 - Changed many %d to %u where unsigned integers are used.
1482 - Added the Bacula version and build date to each backup output.
1483 This will help knowing what version of Bacula was used.
1484 - Implemented VolUseDuration MaxVolBytes, MaxVolFiles, and MaxVolJobs
1485 based on maximums set in the Volume (Media) record rather than in the
1486 resource. This means the values can be individually set on a Volume basis.
1487 - Allow commas separating Include options (this was a subtle bug).
1488 - Added maximum string length argments to a number of subroutines to
1489 prevent buffer overflows. Most notably was do_prompt().
1490 - Replaced MANY occurrences of strcpy() with bstrncpy(), which guarantees
1491 both that the length is not exceeded and that the string is properly terminated.
1492 This has a risk of a certain destabilization -- as does the changes to
1493 the SQL noted above.
1494 - In cram-md5 routine use my_name if gethostname() returns an error.
1495 - Increase timeout from 2 minutes to 3 minutes in authorization code.
1496 - Check the full string including \n in authorization.
1497 - Throw away any response longer than MAXSTRING.
1498 - Added a number of additional error checks on subroutine return statuses.
1499 - Replaced as many lld's with edit_uint64 as I could find.
1501 - Added MaxVolBytes to Pool record - had forgotten it. Updated DB version.
1503 - Update manual to document new Pool/Volume attributes
1504 - Correct make_sqlite_tables (typo, plus missing value in Pool)
1505 - Fix bizarre behavior in gnome-console and console when auth fails.
1506 - Add Pool attribute query
1507 - Add a few more error messages in askdir.c
1508 - More strcpy() conversions to bstrncpy().
1510 General: from kes18Nov02
1511 - Did a number of cleanups of string copying to limit the length
1512 and prevent buffer overflows.
1514 Changes submitted this submission:
1515 - Added a mutex arount the gethostbyname() so that multiple simultaneous
1516 jobs get the correct address.
1517 - Added the MaxVolJobs to the Media alter tables script for MySQL (forgot it).
1518 - Changed arg to db_find_job_start_time to be POOLMEM for returning the string.
1519 - Add the new VolUseDuration and MaxVolJobs to all the db_ routines.
1520 - Use bstrncpy() in most places in the db_ routines to prevent a bad
1521 database from crashing Bacula (self protection).
1523 General: from kes13Nov02
1524 - You MUST either re-initialize your databases or use the
1525 ./alter_mysql_tables
1527 ./alter_sqlite_tables
1528 in the <bacula-src>/src/cats directory to modify your database tables.
1529 - Major improvements to dbcheck including an interactive mode.
1531 Changes submitted this submission:
1532 - Implemented VolumeUseDuration and MaximumVolumeJobs which control
1533 when a tape can be marked Used.
1534 - New tape status "Used" means it was used and cannot be used any more.
1535 - Defined utime_t which is 64 bit epoch time in seconds. btime_t is
1536 64 bit epoch time in microseconds.
1537 - Created alter_xxx_tables to add new columns (VolUseDuration, MaxVolJobs) to
1538 database. Incremented db version.
1539 - Changed a few subroutine names concerning dates to be more descriptive.
1540 - Fixed several places where the last filename was not stored in JCR in
1541 FD verify_vol.c and restore.c
1542 - Major update to dbcheck. Unfortunately I used subselects, which work
1543 perfectly fine in SQLite, but not at all in MySQL. I must now rework
1544 it for MySQL. What a pain!
1545 - Removed "Database found" from configure output. It was no longer used or valid.
1546 - Corrected doc --working-dir => --with-working-dir Thanks to Tuck for
1548 - Added the database name to the error message for mismatched DB version.
1549 - Commented out GMP and CWEB from configure as they are not currently used.
1551 General: from kes09Nov02
1552 - Converted the manual over to a new format written in wml. This
1553 gives navigation buttons on the top and bottom of each page
1554 as well as a standard page size.
1555 - Updated the main Web site, providing a menu bar to the left
1556 and much better organization and presentation of the information.
1557 - Added code to recognize a Volume written with a larger block
1558 size than specified. The code automatically adjusts.
1560 Changes submitted this submission:
1561 - Created a new scripts directory and moved most of the scripts
1562 previously in the main directory there. This cleans things up
1564 - Moved the randpass stuff into autoconf.
1565 - ensure that the generic make_bacula_tables and drop_bacula_tables
1567 - Added code to filed to allow it to be run from inetd. Just add the
1568 -i option. I have not tested it.
1570 General: from kes30Oct02
1571 - Alex found a problem with GZIP compression -- fixed.
1572 - bacula stript fixes.
1573 - Segment fault in Director fixed.
1574 - Added openbsd to platforms
1576 Changes submitted this submission:
1577 - GZIP compression was broken for large files due to a variable that
1578 is changed during the compression. This was relatively easy to fix.
1579 However, there were a number of fixes required to make GZIP and SPARSE
1580 files work together. Found one more place in bextract where SPARSE_GZIP
1581 testing was missing.
1582 - During testing of the above, I ran into the restore problem of multiple
1583 FileSet records. Fixed by including the FileSetId and the MD5 on the
1584 selection string, then always using the FileSetId. It is a bit
1585 confusing for the user, but ...
1586 - Francis found a problem with bacula.in (fixed - thanks)
1587 - I found another problem with bacula.in, so now it REALLY should work
1589 - Added the Replace options code for restores. Not tested.
1590 - Fixed an ugly stack overrun bug in reading the config file
1591 that has been in for a long time. I found this in testing on FreeBSD
1592 where the Director seg faulted.
1594 General: from kes29Oct02
1595 - Major change to the bnet communications routines.
1597 Changes submitted this submission:
1598 - Modified the bacula script to use pid files, so this script should
1599 now work on more platforms. Updated devel_bacula as well.
1600 - Added the full GNU hostname on the configuration print output.
1601 - Added gettimeofday() to configure, and tweaked a few variables for
1603 - Added a chapter to the manual on Porting Bacula to other platforms.
1604 - Documented in Tips how to use the WriteBootstrap record.
1605 - Modified bc_types.h to error if 64 bit types are not found.
1606 - Pass replace option for restore to the FD (no code to use it yet).
1607 - Modify the FD to pass back the GNU OS string as well as the DISTNAME
1608 and DISTVER. This needs to be put in the Client record in the catalog.
1609 - Major reworking of the bnet routines to eliminate the zero length which
1610 previously indicated a signal. This risks to create some subtle communications
1611 bugs. The changes now permit blank lines to be sent from the user to the
1613 - Found and corrected a few more places where the Win32 attributes were not
1615 - Permit spaces in the Where string (restore) by bashing/unbashing them.
1616 - Handle quotes correctly in the Console program (actually Dir ua code).
1617 Previously they were not handled in the middle of a string.
1618 - Corrected two error message (error reading file), which previously stated
1619 it was a network error.
1620 - Reworked the files in the binary Windows release. Removed unused programs
1621 and added a README with the copyright as suggested by John. Also added
1622 console.exe to the release.
1623 - Found and corrected an autoloader mount problem where the wrong tape
1624 was specified. Previously it looped, then gave up. Now it correctly
1625 detects the volume is not correct and zaps the Slot in the catalog.
1627 General: from kes23Oct02
1628 - I have mainly worked on getting all the details of a Restore
1629 to work correctly (new tape format, support for Win32
1631 - Trademarked name Bacula.
1632 - Implement Bacula tape format 11 (1.0 Immortal). This format
1633 will be maintained forever.
1634 - Accept Any Volume is yes by default. This modifies Bacula's behavior
1637 Changes submitted this submission:
1638 - Corrected a bug on FreeBSD where CFLAGS would get a "yes". I was
1639 unable to reproduce this, but a user confirmed the correction.
1640 It was a problem with detection of largefile support, which FreeBSD
1642 - Added a new "license" chapter in the manual. Re-licensed a number of
1643 library routines (bnet.c, hmac.c md5.c, cram-md5, ...) with LGPL so that they
1644 can be used in proprietary software to access Bacula if so desired.
1645 - Move Director's AutoChanger doc to correct location (in Storage
1647 - Document why trademark (to protect compatibility).
1648 - Implement and turned on Bacula tape format 11 (also BB02). This
1649 format moves the VolSessionId and VolSessionTime from each record
1650 header into the Block header. This is MUCH more efficient when reading
1651 records as now whole blocks can be skipped.
1652 Also added JobStatus in End Of Session record, and added MD5 for
1653 FileSet, which is necessary to insure uniqueness.
1654 - Implement a new Bacula time format for btime_t. It is Epoch time
1655 in microseconds (i.e. base 1 Jan 1970 in microseconds).
1656 This replaces previous floating point times.
1657 - Added Win32 extended attributes. In doing so, I moved all attribute
1658 handling from src/lib into src/findlib. Added new streams for
1659 Win32 attributes and for GZIP Win32 attributes.
1660 - Modified "Accept Any Volume" so that it really permits any volume
1661 in the pool to be mounted.
1662 - Removed "Mount Anonymous Volumes" from Storage daemon config.
1663 - Implemented sparse files. You must add "sparse=yes" on the include line
1664 for it to be enabled.
1665 - Print "None" in backup summary rather than 0.0% if there is no compression
1667 - Improved error checking in daemon connection/authentication code to prevent
1668 garbage data from harming a Bacula daemon.
1669 - All daemon tools MUST have a config file.
1670 - Completely strip drive specification on Win32 if a Where prefix is specified.
1671 - Corrected DB info for writing to files. Now the File Address is stored
1672 in File-Block variables in the catalog.
1673 - All Storage daemon tools now use common code for acquiring/reading
1675 - If a device is unmounted, report it even if the device is not open. This
1676 will help inform users who have BLOCKED Bacula by unmounting a drive.
1679 =============================================================================
1680 2002-10-12 Version 1.26 (10Oct02)
1681 General: from kes10Oct02
1682 - Changed Job name conventions to avoid : which is an illegal
1683 character on Windows.
1685 Changes submitted this submission:
1686 - Added check for inet_pton to configure.in. If it does not
1687 exist (e.g. Windows) use inet_aton
1688 - Documentation on GZIP.
1689 - Another restore doc example.
1690 - Documented btape fill command.
1691 - Set default restore directory from /tmp to /tmp/bacula-restores
1692 - Add additional no find error messages to sql_get.c
1693 - Creating a bootstrap file on Windows failed because the Job name
1694 contained colons which are illegal on Windows. Replaced the
1695 colons with periods. This corrects the Windows restore problem.
1696 - Print number of files to be restored in "restore" command.
1697 - On Windows systems, if there is a prefix, completely eliminate
1698 any drive: at the beginning of a path.
1699 - Minor corrections to the tree routines to handle Windows
1700 files such as c:/ better. Previously it insisted on /c:/, which
1701 would then not be found in the catalog for a "dir" command.
1702 - Modified cd command in restore to try /c: if c: fails.
1703 - Add a new S_ISWIN32 bit to the st_mode word so that low level
1704 routines that create files do not print error messages.
1705 - More work must be done to restore all Windows files correctly.
1706 Currently the following bits are not handled:
1710 Also, all the dates are not properly restored.
1712 General: from kes09Oct02
1713 - More documentation.
1714 - Implemented new fill command in btape that permits filling
1715 a tape and then reading it back to ensure that it works
1718 Changes submitted this submission:
1719 - Added ReadBytes to JCR, which contains Job bytes read by
1720 FD, JobBytes contains compressed output of FD.
1721 - Modified FD to pass back JobStatus, ReadBytes, JobBytes, ...
1722 for backup jobs. This is upward compatible.
1723 - Modified backup termination status report to contain the
1724 compression ratio 100 * (1 - compressed-bytes/uncompressed-bytes)
1725 This will always be zero if no software compression was
1726 done, or if you are using a version 1.25 or older FD.
1727 - Pickup Job termination status of FD in backup, so now
1728 the termination status represents the state of all three
1730 - Implemented new fill command in btape that permits filling
1731 a tape and then reading it back to ensure that it works
1734 General: From kes06Oct02
1735 - Implemented first major cut of bscan -- program to scan a tape
1736 and recreate a Bacula catalog.
1737 - Fixed lseek() relative negative seek that prevented writing multiple
1738 jobs to a File volume.
1739 - Implemented BB02 tape format -- currently turned off for writing.
1741 Changes submitted this submission:
1743 - Implemented new BB02 tape format, which moves the VolSessionId and
1744 VolSessionTime from the record headers into the Block header. It
1745 is currently turned off.
1746 - Implemented new btime time/date format on the tape. This is currently
1748 - Added JobStatus to EOS tape label. This is currently turned off.
1749 - Changed start_block, ... to StartBlock in JCR for uniformity.
1750 - Print a message telling which tables were dropped/made with
1751 ./drop_bacula_tables.
1752 - Return JobType and JobLevel in db_get_job_record().
1753 - Implemented get_current_btime(), which returns btime_t.
1754 - Bump debug message max size to 2000 bytes.
1755 - Add btime_t serial/unserial routines.
1756 - Rework all tape label routines to integrate btime and other
1757 label format changes (currently turned off -- for writing).
1758 - Fix lseek() to always be positive -- block.c
1759 - Consolidate record, block, and label major #defines in block.h.
1760 - Major implementation of bscan. Some more minor tweaking will be
1761 necessary. E.g. add multiple records for multiple simultaneous
1763 - Cleanup lseek() to always use off_t as second argument.
1764 - Add new "created" tape label (EOT_LABEL). This generates a callback
1765 to the read_records() routine when the final end of all tapes is
1766 reached allowing proper termination and updating of the media records.
1768 General: From kes25Sep02
1769 - Added means to bind servers to specific address.
1772 Changes submitted this submission:
1773 - Added DirAddress, FDAddress, and SDAddress records to the corresponding
1774 resources that allow the server to bind to a specific address
1775 rather than any address. This security improvement was suggested by
1776 a user -- thank you.
1777 - Eliminated deprecated "Address" record from all sample Storage resources.
1778 - Made quite a lot of improvements to the bscan program. Much more
1779 to do. Aside from details, it is able to recreate a database
1780 from which you can do a restore.
1781 - The s option is not accepted on all versions of ar, so replaced it
1782 by an explicit ranlib call.
1783 - Fixed a bug that caused the Director to crash if you rudely bring
1784 down the console program in the middle of an SQL command.
1785 - Fixed a bug (missing break) that caused scheduled Admin jobs to
1786 be listed as "Unknown type".
1787 - Removed old code from Storage daemon that used a separate FD port.
1789 General: From kes14Sep02
1790 - Better key generation on non OpenSSL systems.
1791 - 64 bit file address support if available.
1792 - Implement autochanger for reading
1793 - Lots of cleanup of tape reading code.
1794 - Automatically create all Pool resources when Bacula starts.
1796 - Implement autochanger use via the Console commands "add" and "label"
1797 - Begin implementation of a regression script
1798 - Write bootstrap after ever job
1800 Changes submitted this submission:
1801 - After noticing that the non OpenSSL random key generator was
1802 not good on Solaris, John wrote a very nice randpass generator.
1803 - Integrated John's makeSessionKey for generating the FD->SD
1805 - Statically link tools (doesn't work on Solaris).
1806 - Document how to debug Bacula (new chapter in the manual)
1807 - Remove unneeded printing of error message in sql_get.c
1808 - Free SD description config record (previous oversight)
1809 - Bash spaces when sending Director names, and unbash them when
1811 - Ensure no divide by zero in rate computation in backup.c
1812 - Implement WriteBootstrap in backup.c
1813 - Allow tape reading to request volume information for any
1815 - Create all Pool resources at startup.
1816 - Show only Backup jobs in Restore listing of last 20 Jobs.
1817 - Handle 64 bit stat packets in restore.
1818 - Don't do shell expansion on store_dir in config if string
1819 starts with |. This is used for piping the program for the
1821 - Ignore SIGHUP -- Déjà Gnu was triggering this.
1822 - Implement autochanger for reading, many changes to
1823 acquire_device_for_read()
1824 - Implement callback for reading Volume. Implement in bextract,
1828 - Fix Volume in bsr.
1829 - Move autochanger code to new subroutine in mount.c
1831 =============================================================================
1832 2002-09-05 Version 1.25a (05Sep02) Released
1833 - Fix unitialized stack variable in bextract so it
1834 will always read the currently mounted tape.
1836 =============================================================================
1837 2002-09-04 Version 1.25 (01Sep02) Released
1839 - Added .cvsignore files in each directory to cut down on the
1840 CVS output when scanning directories and finding Makefiles
1841 and such which are not part of the CVS tree.
1843 Changes submitted this submission:
1844 - Cleaned up a lot of the error messages in Verify, including
1846 - Had to remove some of the "automatic" error message printing
1847 in the DB because they are in fact things that come up
1848 for Verify but not really errors.
1851 2002-08-30 Version 1.25 (30Aug02) Beta
1853 - Fixed a bug where only the first file was restored if
1854 it is hard linked. The other links were lost.
1855 - In some cases of restoring to alternate directories, softlinks
1856 were not properly restored.
1860 - Bacula backups now run up to 12 times faster than version 1.24
1861 - Bacula can run multiple simultaneous Jobs.
1862 - Had to turn off TRANSACTIONS in SQLite because it doesn't work
1863 with multiple simultaneous jobs (I'm working on this).
1864 - Added a better Job printout for Restore Jobs.
1865 - Added a save/restore Rate to backup and restore jobs. This
1866 does not yet subtract out operator wait time so it will be
1867 underestimated it the Job waits on the tape (mount/label).
1868 - Fixed a major bug caused by free()ing a buffer twice in
1869 the Restore code. This made the SD more or less useless after
1870 any restore Job. Arrggg!
1871 - DIR - SD protocol changed, both must be updated at the same time.
1872 - DIR - FD protocol changed in upward compatible way. Upgrade of
1873 FD not required, but recommended.
1875 Changes submitted this submission:
1876 - Added bell to "make" when errors are detected.
1877 - Changed default compile option from -g to -g -O2
1878 - Additional documentation as usual -- much based on questions or
1879 feedback from users. Thanks.
1880 - Fixed example config files to use new syntax and to have a
1882 - Define ETIME to ETIMEOUT for Irix
1883 - Added JCR filed to DB structure permitting direct printing error
1884 messages from within the Database subroutines.
1885 Some error messages may be printed twice as a consequence.
1886 When I see them or someone reports them, I will remove the double.
1887 - Added JCR to the bsock structure. This allows direct printing
1888 of network errors from within the network code.
1889 - Made most "trivial" debug messages have level 100 or greater. This
1890 allows for easier debugging of new code using the range below 100.
1891 - Began replacing all Emsg() with Jmsg() using a NULL as the JCR in
1892 Jmsg() is the same as Emsg().
1893 - Fixed several crashes in the Director because of malformed config files.
1894 - Added SpoolAttributes to Job resource.
1895 - Pass CatalogFiles to SD. If set to no, the attributes are dropped
1896 within the SD rather than being sent to the DIR.
1897 - Cleaned up a number of information/error messages in user interface.
1898 This includes eliminating the "pretty please" response in favor of
1899 "yes/no" to delete volumes and pools.
1900 - Cleaned up quite a number of uninitialized variables reported when going
1901 to -O2, most were harmless, but a couple could cause problems.
1902 - The cd command in restore was not working correctly (it didn't allow some
1904 - Fixed a segmentation violation in the directory tree handling code in
1905 the restore command.
1906 - Handle a few error conditions in the restore command better.
1907 - Permit "Where" to be set to nul in modification of a run command.
1908 - Clarified the error message for Verify if an InitCatalog has not previously
1909 been done -- thanks Chuck.
1910 - Add MaximumConcurrentJobs to FD.
1911 - Added code to mem_pool to die if a buffer is released twice.
1912 - Lots of work done on SD for multiple simultaneous jobs. Split device.c
1913 into device.c, mount.c and acquire.c
1914 - Started writing new lock code for SD, but may back it out -- needs more
1915 thought. Current code works, but is too complicated. Maybe can simplify it.
1916 - Cleaned up the SD tools code quite a bit. Added bootstrap to all tools.
1917 - Ensure that tape session labels are not split across two blocks. This makes
1918 reading them back much easier.
1919 - Fixed another restore bug concerning tape labels on multi-volume saves.
1921 =============================================================================
1922 2002-08-14 Version 1.24
1924 - Made a new tools directory.
1925 - Moved smtp into the tools directory.
1926 - Created a dbcheck program in the tools directory that
1927 checks for certain database errors and if requested fixes them.
1928 - Put the database link flags on DB_LIBS so that it now only is
1929 on binaries that actually need it.
1930 - Document dbcheck and testfind programs.
1931 - Move testfind to tools directory.
1932 - Check for FileSet after getting Client name in Restore command.
1933 Modify all necessary SQL commands to accept FileSetId.
1934 - Add a db_get_fileset_record in cats directory.
1935 - Correct list last 20 files concatenation to be MySQL
1936 dependent. They aren't SQL standard. Use SQL standard || for
1938 - Modify dir command in file selection to produce a long form
1939 listing of the file/directory name.
1940 - Add platforms/irix/*.in files to CVS
1941 - Make Console command scanner accept quoted value fields.
1942 - If after selecting Client to restore, there are multiple
1943 FileSets, ask user to select one.
1944 - After obtaining JobIds for restore, ensure that there is only
1945 one MediaType, and select a Storage resource to be used.
1948 - Made restore actually work.
1949 - Made console and gconsole be configured (requested by Chuck)
1951 - changed fs in Job record to fileset for clarity
1952 - The console run command was not properly picking up the command
1953 line arguments. Fixed!
1954 - Changed add/remove/rm to mark/unmark
1955 - Volume keyword VolumeName was wrong, changed to Volume (in restore bsr).
1956 - Pass jcr to parse_bsr, and if non-NULL, it will output error messages
1957 to Job stream rather than Emsg.
1958 - Modified lexical scanner to include caller context so that jcr can
1959 be stored in lex context allowing error messages to be properly
1961 - Renamed the Job message chain to be jcr_msgs. This eliminated the
1962 previous confusion with the default value, now named jcr->messages.
1963 - Implemented multi-volume bsr records.
1964 - Implemented pm_strcat() and pm_strcpy() to cat/add to memory pool
1965 buffers in same way as strcat/strcpy, but expanding buffer.
1966 - Modified db_get_volume_names to handle arbitrarily long Volume list.
1969 - If the Console program terminated during the printing of messages,
1970 the message file was left locked. This was corrected by using the
1971 new read-write lock code.
1972 - Implemented Pw() and Vw() for obtaining and releasing a write lock
1973 using the rwl_xxx routines.
1974 - Deleted some old pthread_mutex code from mysql.c
1975 - In making the Irix port, I previously corrected the base64 routine so
1976 they were not sensitive to the machine definition of char. This made
1977 them incompatible with previous versions invalidating MD5 signatures
1978 which are in base64 format. I have now corrected this, making the
1979 routines compatible with the previous version but also insensitive
1980 to the default definition of char.
1981 - Removed some unnecessary NPRT() usage in signal.c (pointed out by
1983 - Add back BNET_NONO for compatibility with older File daemons.
1984 - Implement runing a restore Job in the restore command.
1985 - Make installation of query.sql unconditional. To prevent you own file
1986 from being overwritten, give it a different name.
1987 - Made parse_command_args() in ua take command from ua->cmd, this
1988 simplifies it and allows usage in other places -- e.g. building
1989 arguments for created run command in restore.
1990 - Cleaned the naming of s_full_ctx to be s_jobids.
1991 - Write the bsr created in restore to "working-directory"/restore.bsr
1992 - Fix bugs in command line scanner in run command -- also some misplaced
1994 - Eliminate static cmd in ua_server.c
1995 - Eliminate segmentation fault when using the Run command in the
1996 Console -- forgot to init_msgs().
1999 - Did a good amount of documentation.
2000 - Added sql_cmds.c to CVS, forgot, pointed out by Chuck.
2001 - Added new platforms/irix directory to CVS
2002 - Turn off transaction debug code in sql.c
2003 - Reworked the scheduler so that it handles the same Job starting
2004 twice in the same hour. Previously it took one or the other.
2005 - Tightened up the "slop" in the timings that I programmed to ensure
2006 that the same job isn't run twice or that no job was missed.
2007 - Increase the sleep time.
2008 - Used job_type_to_str() in status so that Admin jobs are correctly reported.
2009 - Add internationalization message chars to a number of routines
2011 - Make the watchdog timer clear the mutex when it exits.
2012 - Some tweaks to the Restore command. It needs fixing when a Job spans
2013 two or more volumes.
2016 - Initial cut at adding Irix File daemon support.
2017 - Lots of work on the restore command.
2018 - Take a stab at eliminating the "broken pipe message"
2019 when the console program prematurely terminates.
2020 - Reimplemented transactions for SQLite by keeping
2021 them all in the same thread.
2022 - quit in the Console program now waits for Bacula to
2023 quit. To immediately quit, you must enter .quit
2024 - Eliminated BNET_EOF -- this COULD have some negative consequences
2025 on interdaemon communications.
2026 - Define Job termination status for Admin jobs.
2027 - Write new bstrncpy() function that guarantees that strcpy is
2028 properly terminated.
2029 - Fixed command input in ua_input.c to accept quoted items as a
2033 - The changes that added indexes to the SQLite database were
2034 lost -- thanks to Chuck for pointing this out. Redone.
2035 - Fixed a problem quoting strings in SQLite. This showed up
2036 as database errors with files containing ' or " in the filename.
2037 - Implemente restore command -- still in progress.
2038 - Added indexes to all fields in SQLite that exist in MySQL.
2039 - Moved unused immortal files from src/lib to src/immortal.
2040 This will permit splitting depkgs.
2041 - Started work on adding embedded MySQL. Cannot get the tables
2042 to work for the moment. Please don't try to use this option.
2043 - Convert to using single quotes for enclosing all strings.
2044 - Implement correct quoting algorithm for SQLite strings.
2045 Is dequoting needed?
2046 - Started centralizing SQL statments in the Director in sql_cmds.c
2047 - Changed a number of M_ABORTs to M_ERROR_TERM so that program terminates
2048 but does not produce a dump.
2049 - Allow wild-card matches in bsr for Client name, and Job.
2050 - Change OflineOnUnmount=no as default.
2051 - Fixed improper printing of filenames containing a space in bls.c
2052 Thanks to Carlos for reporting this.
2054 ===========================================================================
2055 2002-07-26 Release 1.23a
2056 - Fix segmentation fault is FD status.
2057 - Turn off TRANSACTIONs for SQLite.
2059 ===========================================================================
2060 2002-07-23 Release 1.23
2062 - Updated Bacula to handle some minor differences in MySQL 4.0.2
2063 (still works with older MySQLs).
2064 - Updated MySQL documentation to correct some minor errors.
2065 - Added kernstodo to CVS
2066 - Fixed create_mysql_database, which I recently accidently broke.
2067 - Disallow zero length volume names in Console program.
2068 - Create alter_mysql_tables and alter_sqlite_tables for conversion
2069 from 1.22 table format to 1.23 table format.
2072 - Investigation of SQLite performace problems reported by Chuck.
2075 - made root@localhost the default email address because many smtp
2076 servers reject root but accept root@localhost
2077 - Added an autochangers chapter to the manual.
2078 - Documented most of the new features in 1.23
2079 - Modified the SQLite interface code to start a transaction at the
2080 beginning of a job and commit it at the end of the job. It
2081 also commits it after 10000 changes. Hopefully this will
2082 improve performance.
2083 - Set the default cache pages from 2000 to 10000 for SQLite (i.e.
2084 about 15Megs of memory) hoping to improve performance.
2085 - Terminate last filename referenced in FD prior to copy to
2086 avoid race problem with multiple threads and no locking.
2087 - Enhanced the status output to include the JobType
2088 - Print an error message if the email program terminates in error.
2089 - If your machine has an MTUNLOCK, do it before doing an OFFLINE to
2090 ensure that the door is unlocked.
2091 - Added code to stored/append.c to spool attributes. This is in
2092 a testing stage and must be explicitly enabled.
2093 - Added a no_attributes variable to stored/append.c that prevents
2094 the attributes from being sent to the Director. As yet, no way
2096 - Modified SQLite code so that after 10000 updates any transaction
2097 is committed, then restarted. This keeps it from using too much
2099 - Set the default cache size to 10000 pages (previously 2000).
2100 - Fixed a segmentation fault on Sun due to no default value for
2102 - Added the same indexes to SQLite that I exist in MySQL. This
2103 VASTLY reduces CPU usage for lots of inserts.
2104 - Added spooling to bnet_send().
2107 - The following two changes were prompted by questions/suggestions
2109 - If you have "AlwaysOpen = no" in your SD Device
2110 resource, Bacula will free() the drive when it
2111 is finished with the Job.
2112 - If you have "Offline On Unmount = yes", in your
2113 SD Device resource, Bacula will offline (or eject)
2114 the tape prior to freeing it.
2115 - Added Maximum Open Wait to allow open() to wait if drive is busy.
2116 - Added RunBeforeJob and RunAfterJob records to Job records.
2117 This permits running an external program with the following editing
2121 %d = Director's name
2130 - Added autochanger support to devices.c
2131 - Allow user to change Slot in the Volume record.
2132 - Implemented code in lib to run an external program
2134 - Implemented a changer script for mtx.
2135 - Currently the changer commands used are:
2136 loaded -- returns number of slot loaded or 0
2137 load -- loads a specified slot
2138 unload -- unloads the device (returns casette to slot)
2139 - Other changer commands defined but not yet used:
2140 list -- returns list of slots containing a cassette
2141 slots -- returns total number of slots
2142 - Implemented ChangerCommand, specified in the SD Device
2143 resource, permits editing of:
2145 %a = archive device name
2146 %c = changer device name
2153 - Implemented MaximumChangerWait default 120 seconds. It is
2154 specified in the SD Device resource.
2157 - Moved techlogs from main directory to be subdirectory of doc
2158 - Added code for strerror_r, and detection of gethostbyname_r().
2159 - The protocol between the Director and the SD has changed.
2160 - Major rework of SD tape mounting to prepare for Changer commands.
2161 - Separated Update Media record and Create JobMedia record. These
2162 are done from the SD by calling the Director. Need separate Create
2163 JobMedia so that when a Job spans a volume, all other Jobs writing
2164 the same volume will also have JobMedia records created.
2165 - Added message to user indicating selection aborted if he enters .
2166 to a Console selection request.
2167 - Create a jobstatus_to_ascii() routine for use in status commands.
2168 This makes a single routine from three separate pieces of code.
2169 Updated the code to properly handle more (all) termination statuses.
2170 - Tried to fix the gnome-console to handle history a bit better. There
2171 are still some problems with focus not being properly set to the edit
2172 box after history replacement.
2173 - Removed the shutdown() from bnet_close() hoping to fix Console termination
2174 errors that are occassionally seen -- no luck.
2175 - Moved add_str() to lib/util and renamed it add_str_to_pool_mem() so that
2176 it can be used to edit Job termination codes and Changer command codes.
2177 - Reworked how the SD mounts tapes (in device.c) so that control passes through
2178 only a single routine. The logic is much simpler than previously, and now
2179 adding AutoChanger code is straight forward.
2180 - Made SD tape mounting much more fault tolerant -- more cases retry instead
2181 of terminating the Job.
2182 - Wrote code to edit_device_codes() for Changer commands. Not yet fully
2184 - Added a ChangerDevice directive to the Device resource. Still need to add
2188 - This documents what I did while on vacation.
2189 - A fair amount of documentation.
2190 - Implemented Verify Volume to Catalog (needs renaming)
2191 - Modified the database to include new MarkId field as
2192 well as Counters. Database level is incremented from 1 to 2.
2193 - Added first cut of managing autochangers by implementing Slot in DB.
2194 - Fixed a good number of M_ERROR messages to be M_FATAL where appropriate.
2195 Also converted a number of Emsg() to Jmsg() permitting better Job error
2197 - First cut at implementing a general packet passing mechanism for bsock
2198 to replace printf and sscanf for passing data.
2199 - Made make_xxx_tables and drop_xxx_tables and create_xxx_database
2200 for bdb as well as sqlite. With this each database has the
2201 same set of scripts (with the exception that MySQL has grant_privileges).
2202 - Modified Makefile to only install the database scripts for the
2203 database that you are using.
2204 - Updated the pdf script to include all the html files.
2205 - Did quite a lot of documentation.
2206 - Made Bacula compile correctly with DEBUG turned off.
2207 - Implemented Pmsg() macros that permit using the debug print
2208 routines even with DEBUG off.
2209 - Updated job_cancelled() macro to handle JS_FatalError.
2210 - Changed db_find_last_full_verify() to db_find_last_jobid(). This
2211 permits working with Verify Volume to Catalog.
2212 - Removed TRANSACTION code from incrementing NextId for SQLite.
2213 - Implemented quick and dirty (not fully functional code) so that
2214 console program does not die if ctl-Z is entered.
2215 - Cleaned up backup.c a bit adding a bail_out goto to ensure proper
2216 handling of errors with minimum code.
2217 - Added passing Slot back and forth to Storage daemon with Volume info.
2218 - Implemented Slot in Media record in DB.
2219 - Implemented first cut of Counter resource in dird_conf.c. A counter
2220 resource is part of the Pool resource.
2221 - Implemented necessary database record. However, the resource doesn't
2222 yet create a DB record.
2223 - Implemented onefs (One File System) and recurse options on Include
2225 - Implemented autopruning of Verify and Restore Jobs.
2226 - Did a better job of calculating thread_concurrency() for Sun systems.
2227 This permits better multi-threading allowing all the threads to run
2229 - Implemented a wait_for_storage_daemon_termination(), which is used by
2230 backup and verify volume.
2231 - Clarified a number of UA prompts, and add feedback where certain commands
2232 completed but printed nothing. (More work to be done here).
2233 - Added a pile of new code to implement Verify Volume to Catalog. It is sort
2234 of a hybrid of "restore" and "verify" in that it actually reads the tape,
2235 then compares it to the catalog. Need Verify Volume to Client.
2236 - Added a good number of checks for job_cancelled() this should permit
2237 quicker and more reliable cancelling of jobs.
2238 - Fixed one bug in restore where I used ofile instead of lname, which means
2239 that if the lname was too long, the memory was not properly reallocated.
2240 - Cleaned up find_one.c in findlib quite a bit.
2241 - Link smtp static so that it works even if the libraries are messed up.
2242 - If mail host is not found, retry with local host in smtp.
2243 - Added slot and stream to the bootstrap record processing.
2244 - Do offline on tape cartrige for unmount command. This can be turned off
2245 by the user in the config file. OffLineOnUnmount in Device resource.
2246 - Implemented AutoChanger = yes/no in Device resource.
2248 ===========================================================================
2249 2002-07-07 Release 1.22
2250 - All the basic Restore code to handle the boostrap file is
2251 now implemented with the exception of the Console Restore command.
2252 - Retained compatibility with previous Restore providing no
2253 bootstrap file is specified. However, the old code (JobId based)
2254 will go away in a future release.
2255 - Fixed a number of segmentation faults in the Console program due
2256 to printing of NULL pointers -- thanks to Chuck and his Sun for
2257 finding and reporting them -- mostly in ua_output.c.
2260 - Null pointers now are printed as *None* if NPRT() is used.
2261 - At the request of Phil, all resources are now chained in in the
2262 order they appear in the config file.
2263 - Implement Bootstrap record in the Director's config file, which
2264 allows you to specify a predefined bootstrap file for Restore Jobs.
2265 - Allow Bootstrap on the Restore record. This is deprecated.
2266 - Implemented code to pass the Bootstrap file, if defined, to the
2267 File daemon, then from the File daemon to the Storage daemon.
2268 - Added ability to set Bootstrap file in the Console when running a Restore.
2269 - Allow scan_error() routine to be passed to lex_open_file(). This permits
2270 using lex in the Storage daemon without worrying that it will ABORT on
2271 a syntax error. More work is needed to direct the error messages correctly.
2272 - Improved error messages a bit when config syntax errors are found.
2273 - Tested and corrected some errors in match_bsr.c
2274 - Removed askdir.c from bls and bextract by defining dummy entry points.
2275 - bextract now has bootstrap pretty well integrated.
2276 - Changed bextract ABORTs into FATAL and exit(1) or ERROR_TERMINATE.
2278 - Eliminated at least one lld and replaced it by edit_uint64()
2279 - Eliminated a few more _PROTO()s.
2280 - Corrected a problem with the SQL for in query.sql for
2281 Listing Volumes to Restore All Files
2284 - Additional documentation.
2285 - Reduce the time the jcr mutex is locked in lib/jcr.c
2286 - More null pointer printing fixes in lib/parse_conf.c (debug output only).
2287 - Added daemon filename to Kaboom message so I know what daemon died.
2288 - Fix big bad bug introduced in watchdog.c last update that caused
2289 a segmentation violation (forgot to check for NULL pointer).
2290 - Add a bit more info to bad returns from Stored when starting
2295 - Fixed backup scanning forgot one T_STRING -> T_UNQUOTED_STRING
2296 - changed all rwlock_t to brwlock_t to avoid conflicts with
2298 - Added NPRT() macro to allow printing of NULL pointers, which
2299 segment fault on Solaris.
2300 - Cast printing of pid_t to int for Solaris compiler.
2303 - Added expect argment to lex_get_token().
2304 - Added tree.c and tree.h to lib directory.
2307 - Improvements to the bootstrap compiler
2308 - Implemented first cut of bootstrap code in the Storage daemon
2309 - Modified the authentication code to be more explicit during
2311 - Added a few more debug message numbers with more arguments (Dmsg10, ...)
2312 - Added more and more precise error messages when authentication fails.
2313 - Implemented new "expect" codes in the lexical scanner that allows
2314 the caller to specify what he wants.
2315 - Added integer, positive integer, 64 bit integer, and integer ranges,
2316 and name scanning to lex.
2317 - Implemented new lex code in parse_conf.c, this reduces significantly
2319 - Hopefully fixed a watchdog race bug that caused the watchdog to time
2320 out a line after 1 hour rather than 6 days.
2323 - Implemented a Bootstrap file parser and matcher.
2324 - Implemented first cut of bootstrap code in bextract
2325 - Started clarifying different termination codes.
2326 - Added M_ERROR_TERM to immediately terminate the daemon -- no dump.
2327 Also changed a few termination codes as appropriate.
2328 - Fixed create_jobmedia_record() to include all the fields such as
2329 StartFile/EndFile, StartBlock/EndBlock.
2330 - Print user friendly message when query mode ends.
2331 - Fixed ls style print routines (bextract, bls, restore) to check
2332 buffer size, to print the link if any, and to used edit_uint64()
2334 - Moved scan_to_eol() and s_err() to lex.c to avoid dragging in
2335 parse_conf.c for new bsr scanning code.
2336 - New files: bsr.h, parse_bsr.c and match_bsr.c. parse_bsr.c parses
2337 a Bootstrap file, and match_bsr.c matches a bsr against a tape.
2338 - use strcasecmp() in several places instead of lcase().
2339 - Add first cut of bootstrap to bextract.
2340 - Added File Size limit -- writes EOF after limit exeeded.
2342 ===========================================================================
2343 2002-06-12 Release 1.21
2344 - Fixed several problems with filenames being truncated if
2345 they contain spaces. Thanks to the user that reported this.
2346 - N.B. To get the new queries, after the "make" and
2347 "make install" you must explicitly replace the
2348 existing query.sql by query.sql.new. query.sql is a
2349 user configuration file, so it is not overwritten.
2350 - Added GZIP compression of Included files.
2351 - Added additional fields to tape SOS record permitting better
2352 recovery with no database.
2353 - Be sure to remove any !terminate statements you may have
2354 in your config files.
2355 - MUST UPDATE ALL DAEMONS due to protocol change to handle new
2359 - Updated examples directory with my most recent config files.
2360 - Modified the M_TERM meaning to mean that Bacula has
2361 terminated in error without producing a dump. Previously,
2362 it meant that Bacula terminate (with or without error).
2363 You should remove any !terminate from your messages
2365 - Changed the order of the libraries in the link so that
2366 tcp wrappers link properly. Thanks Phil for reporting this.
2367 - A user reported that filenames containing spaces were truncated
2368 in bextract. This was indeed the case. They were also truncated
2369 in Restore as well as in Verify. They are, hopefully, all fixed
2371 - Made a few error conditions in Verify non-fatal.
2372 - Modified the Console "query" command to permit multiple SQL
2373 statements per command.
2374 - Implemented three new "query" options:
2375 List last 10 Full Backups for a Client
2376 List Volumes used by selected JobId
2377 List Volumes to Restore All Files
2378 To use them, simply type "query" to the Console program, and
2379 select the one you want.
2380 - Modified bextract to default to extracting all files (i.e. /).
2381 - Cleaned up the code in bextract a bit.
2384 - Improve Verify command to include files examined.
2385 - Eliminate fcntl() locking of the console file and replaced
2386 it with a pthreads mutex.
2387 - Note Director - SD protocol is changed to handle new tape
2388 information (Fileset, JobType, JobLevel).
2389 - Create config.out that contains a summary of ./configure
2390 to see what you previously configured: "cat config.out"
2391 - Implemented GZIP compression. Added addition syntax to
2392 Include { } resource to permit setting of any GZIP compression
2399 Level 1 is minimum compression and level 9 is maximum. Using just
2400 GZIP gives the default (level 6).
2401 - Enhanced the tape format to include the unique Job name, FileSetName,
2402 JobType, and JobLevel in the Start/End of Session records. The code
2403 detects that tape level difference and acts accordingly. You can
2404 add data in the new format to old tapes.
2405 - Fixed an incorrect display message in the prune command.
2406 - Began implementation of Verify Volume and Verify Data.
2407 - Cleaned up File daemon restore.c a bit ensuring that termination
2408 cleanup is done and all possible Emsgs are converted to Jmsgs.
2409 - Modify bls.c to use common setup routines. This reduced the big
2410 code duplication that creeped in when I added different listing
2411 options. Also, changing tapes is now handled uniformily in a subroutine.
2413 ===========================================================================
2414 2002-05-27 Release 1.20
2415 - Started documenting Catalog Pruning and Recycling.
2416 Added catmaintenance.html and recycling.html
2417 - Fixed the query command bug.
2418 - Implemented PID files to prevent two copies of Bacula
2419 from running at the same time. Be sure you --with-pid-dir
2420 points to a working directory.
2421 - Modified ASSERT() to cause a segmentation violation. This
2422 permits a core dump.
2423 - Worked on gnome-console. It paints better, it tells you if it
2424 is ready to accept a command or processing one, and it is
2425 almost entirely GTK+ (rather than GNOME, I'm removing GNOME
2427 - Limit to 100 the number of tape labeling errors in a single Job.
2428 - Add some additional ASSERT()s to the database routines. I don't
2429 like ASSERTs but they do catch bugs.
2430 - Tested and debugged recycling of Volumes. Needed to change
2431 the Director-SD protocol slightly.
2432 - Removed the experimental SIGHUP in the Director as it is a
2433 potential source of errors.
2434 - Added Level, Pool, Messages, and Storage keyword/value scanning
2435 to the Schedule Run record.
2436 - Improved printing of Schedule resources with "show schedules"
2437 - Do not autoprune Jobs/Files if the Job errs.
2438 - Updated newvol() to pass back the updated Media record.
2439 - Fixed the "update pool" command, which was broken during a much
2440 earlier code reorganization.
2441 - Improved a few of the pruning messages.
2442 - Removed readline inclusions from gnome-console (hang over from console).
2443 - Make Jmsg use daemon message handler if no message handler is defined.
2444 This is always the case in the SD and FD.
2445 - Started removing __PROTO(). With C++ prototypes are manditory, so why
2446 keep around legacy code.
2447 - Added a good deal of message internationalization -- more to be done.
2448 - Move cached Path into mdb structure and use POOLMEM.
2449 - Fix verify bug introduced last update causing incorrect diffs
2450 by turning off autopruning.
2451 - Started adding code to distinguish Errors from Fatal Errors.
2452 - Errors are now counted in message.c for a Job.
2453 - More POOLMEM cleanups.
2454 - Implemented Automatic pruning.
2455 - Implemented Automatic recycling of Volumes.
2456 - Added PruneJobs/Files/Volumes=yes or no to Job resource. If set,
2457 it forces the specified pruning.
2458 - Modified rwlock to accept multiple nested write lock
2460 - Modified the cats directory to use the new rwlock mechanism
2461 in place of P() and V().
2462 - Defined db_lock(mdb) and db_unlock(mdb). They are in effect
2464 - Add CVS Id's to most files.
2465 - Made first cut at AutoPrune
2466 - Added new autoprune file that is called at the end of
2467 each Job. It then decides when and what to prune and
2468 calls the UA prune routines.
2469 - Modified Run (in Schedule resource) to permit overrides of
2470 Level, Pool, Storage, and Messages. (not tested).
2471 - Added more POOLMEM in place of char.
2472 - Implemented daemon pid files. This prevents multiple
2473 daemons from running simultaneously. You can run multiple
2474 daemons if they listen on different ports.
2475 - Documented the Schedule resource a bit better.
2476 - Began gently adding a POOLMEM type (perviously void).
2477 For the moment it is a #define to char, but long term
2478 it should be its own typedef.
2479 - Corrected a bit of spacing on the status bar of gnome-console
2480 - Added Admin and Archive Job types.
2481 - Implemented multiple Messages resources. Each daemon has
2482 its own message resource, which defaults if not defined.
2483 Jobs may now have different message handlers.
2484 - Cleaned up a bit of duplicate code in backup, verify, and
2485 restore by creating appropriate subroutines in job.c
2486 - Added Type, Client, FileSet, and Level resource record
2487 definitions to the Director. These can be used in place
2488 of the Backup = ..., Verify = ..., ... commands. This needs
2490 - Corrected an incorrect message in the prune code and added
2491 the number of Files pruned in the message.
2492 - Corrected several paint problems with gnome-console.
2493 - Added a bit of printout in signal handler during traceback.
2494 - Cleaned up most of sm_check() to be turned on/off by define
2497 ===========================================================================
2498 2002-05-10 Release 1.19
2499 - Allow the user to select a new period for pruning.
2500 - Lots of additions to the manual -- prune and purge
2501 commands documented.
2502 - Applied Phil's configure.in fix for --prefix, ...
2503 - Fixed bug found by Phil (patch supplied) in updating
2504 MD5 signatures (revert to 32 bit FileId, move "static"
2505 variables into JCR) (catreq.c fd-cmds.c).
2506 - Reverted to using INTEGER for FileId in make_sql_tables
2507 due to a bug in MySQL.
2508 - Change editing code to %d for FileId.
2509 - Remove sqlite in make distclean in cats directory.
2510 - Remove console.conf in console during make distclean.
2511 - Remove gnome-console.conf during make distclean.
2512 - Remove bacula-dir.conf during make distclean.
2513 - Set default level when using Console if none specified.
2514 Bug reported by Phil.
2515 - A simple . command from Console is ignored.
2516 - Change program named from filed to bacual-fd in winmain.cpp
2517 - Change default config file for Win32 in winmain.cpp
2518 - Free namebuf on early return from find_one.c. Bug reported by Phil.
2519 - Modify testfind.c to dump orphaned buffers.
2520 - Removed terabytes from parse_conf.c because of problems with
2521 older gcc compilers.
2522 - Turn off gnome options in gnome-console by constructing empty argv.
2523 - Fixes to Verify when only MD5 differs.
2524 - Insert 0 for MD5 as default rather than space.
2525 - Allow .messages "transparent" command while reading input
2526 in UserAgent server.
2527 - In dird/verify.c ensure that correct filename is printed if only
2528 the MD5 differs. Minor reindenting caused large diff.
2529 - Delete unused code from backup.c
2530 - In filed/verify.c ensure that same algorithm as backup.c is used
2531 to pass back MD5 signatures -- especially for directories and files
2532 that cannot be read. Change dummy filename from X to *MD5-id*.
2533 This dummy value should never be printed.
2534 - Make gnome-console poll Director every 5 seconds for output.
2535 This means that queued up messages are displayed at reasonable
2536 intervals. Delete some unused code hanging around from the tty
2538 - Begin implementation of prune commands.
2539 - Add command line history to gnome-console. Not yet saved across sessions.
2540 - Fixed some broken URLs in the manual.
2542 - Wrote first cut of "prune files" and "prune jobs".
2543 - Added command line history to gnome-console 2500 lines max.
2544 - Widened store_time() and associated variables to 64 bits using
2545 new btime_t definition.
2546 - Removed GNOME about box and replaced it with
2547 a somewhat crude Gtk+ about box in the gnome-console.
2548 - Widened StartDay in the Job DB record to be 64 bits.
2549 - Changed edit_uint_ to edit_uint64_ everywhere. Much more
2550 descriptive of what is done.
2551 - Removed most llds and replaced them with %s and edit_uint64.
2552 This makes the code a bit easier to read for beginners.
2553 - Added a btime_t typedef which is 64 bits wide.
2554 - Added most of the code needed to do Purge and Prune of
2555 database. Not yet tested. Please do not use.
2556 - Additional config options for Console.
2557 - Started adding code for Automatic Recycling of Volumes.
2558 - Allow arbitrary length filenames in Verify code.
2559 - Fix incorrect filename in Verify code.
2560 - Significant enhancement to number scanning in config parser.
2561 - Requires initializing MySQL tables, or applying cats/alter.sql
2562 to modify Media table.
2563 - Modified Makefile to printer a much more visible
2564 message if the make ends in error.
2565 - Added the Purge value to the VolStatus in the Media table.
2566 This value is set if the Volume is purged.
2567 - Enhanced the db_delete_media_record() routine to delete
2568 all associated records in the database.
2569 - Modified Console to always write to the variable "output"
2570 rather than stdout. This will permit directing output to a file.
2571 - Enhanced the Console configuration file to have a Console
2572 resource. This will allow us to add an rcfile and history file.
2573 - Modified Find_next_vol in catreq.c to search for "Recycle"
2574 volumes if there are none marked Append. Also made Get_Vol_info
2575 return the VolStatus to the Storage daemon.
2576 - Allow upper/lower case match on job level names.
2577 - Added another warning message to the Console "delete media" command.
2578 - Corrected a number of FileId types from uint64_t to FileId_t in
2580 - In ua server close database before freeing JCR (because pointer is
2581 kept in ua and jcr structures).
2582 - parse all numbers as doubles. Do lots of checking for valid number
2583 formats. Allow numbers in scientific form (e.g. 1.5e+10).
2584 - Remove terabyte modifier as it doesn't work in some compilers.
2585 - Fix bug in handling some modifiers.
2586 - Added all necessary code for Recycle to Storage daemon. A Volume
2587 marked Recycle will now be overwritten.
2588 - Filled out the prune command a bit and did some testing.
2589 - Make console accept redirected input.
2590 - Altered the Table definitions to include Recycle,
2591 FileRetention, JobRetention, and AutoPrune.
2592 - Widened StartDay to 64 bits.
2593 - Use JobId_t in more places.
2594 - Added the new table fields to the database record definitions.
2595 - Changed Recycle from string to a binary quantity.
2596 - Added a Version table with a VersionId to detect.
2597 future changes in the database. This should prevent
2598 a Bacula from working with a database that is not in sync.
2599 - Modify Console to accept input from a file. This will permit
2600 the .read command and allow reading a .rc file.
2601 - Added new retention and recycle variables to the Director's configuration.
2602 - The UA subroutines or commands can now be called from core
2603 code because the output routines detect the absence of a
2604 UA socket and direct output to the Job.
2605 - Added a verbose flage to the ua packet to permit reduction of
2606 output while running a UA command (prune) from a Job.
2607 - Did a fair amount of work on the prune command. Prune Volume now works.
2608 - Purge Volume now works.
2609 - Made last changes for integrating prune and purge commands.
2610 - Add -ltermcap to CONS_LIBS when readline is configured.
2611 More work to be done to search for termcap.
2612 - Added cats/drop_sqlite_tables.in, which will delete the SQLite database.
2613 - Got CWEB working so that we can compile filesys.w and immortal.w
2614 - Modified depkgs to include cweb.
2615 - Note, CWEB is not yet used by the core Bacula code.
2616 - Made cats/alter.sql, which alters an old database to bring it
2617 up to the new format. This only works with MySQL since SQLite does
2618 not have the ALTER SQL command.
2619 - Changed the old StartDay field in the db to be JobTDate, which is
2620 the latest time/date in widened Unix time format that the Job ran.
2621 This value is used when doing pruning.
2622 - Added code in cats/sql.c to verify that the database internal version
2623 corresponds to the db version compiled in Bacula. It is set to 1 currently.
2624 - Lots of changes to cats to bring the SQL up to date with the new
2625 retention period changes.
2626 - Added Console command code to permit changing a Volume's retention period.
2627 - Removed old code that used date_encode() and replaced it with widened
2629 - Started modifying Message resource scanner so that we can have multiple
2630 message resources. Much more work to be done.
2631 - Moved scanning for time into new library routine string_to_btime().

2636 - Fixed bug found by Phil (patch supplied) in updating
2637 MD5 signatures (revert to 32 bit FileId, move "static"
2638 variables into JCR) (catreq.c fd-cmds.c).
2639 - Reverted to using INTEGER for FileId in make_sql_tables
2640 due to a bug in MySQL.
2641 - Change editing code to %d for FileId.
2642 - Remove sqlite in make distclean in cats directory.
2643 - Remove console.conf in console during make distclean
2644 - Remove gnome-console.conf during make distclean
2645 - Remove bacula-dir.conf during make distclean
2646 - Set default level when using Console if none specified.
2647 Bug reported by Phil.
2648 - A simple . command from Console is ignored.
2649 - Change program named from filed to bacual-fd in winmain.cpp
2650 - Change default config file for Win32 in winmain.cpp
2651 - Free namebuf on early return from find_one.c. Bug reported by
2653 - Modify testfind.c to dump orphaned buffers.
2654 - Removed terabytes from parse_conf.c because of problems with
2655 older gcc compilers.
2656 - Turn off gnome options in gnome-console by constructing empty
2659 ===========================================================================
2660 2002-04-18 Release 1.17 Kern Sibbald
2661 - Ensure that platforms Makefiles are called for clean
2663 - Hide a lot of Makefile messages with @
2664 - Applied Phil's configure.in patch. Thanks.
2665 - Doc updates, many to clarify points brought up by Phil.
2666 - Applied Phil's make_mysql_tables.in patch. Thanks.
2667 - Made authenticate.c in dird test bnet_send status.
2668 - Make label a bit more friendly with extra info message.
2669 - Add level 200 to debug info in run command.
2670 - Remove old code from findlib/testfind.c so that it compiles.
2671 - Add two minute max wait to cram-md5 authentication. Hopefully,
2672 this will catch non-responding WinNT daemons.
2673 - Allow time and size modifiers to be upper or lower case.
2674 - Turn off old CYGWIN patch for pthread_cond_timedwait() bug that
2675 now causes File daemon hangs on WinNT.
2676 - Fix mount messages for restore. Previous updates to save
2677 broke the restore code.
2678 - By default write fixed block sizes rather than variable block
2679 sizes. My Sony DAT simply does not work (reread failures) with
2680 variable block sizes.
2681 - Data split across tapes was not being correctly restored
2682 (at least on DAT tapes).
2683 - Implement MaximumBlockSize and MinumBlockSize statements in
2684 Storage daemon so user can specify variable block sizes if
2686 - Return error if block checksum error on read (previously
2688 - Fixed some error messages in bls, and in some cases exit(1)
2689 rather than ABORT. There remain ABORTs to be examined.
2690 - Made a local copy of tcpd.h and corrected the function
2691 prototype problem for C++.
2693 ===========================================================================
2694 2002-04-14 First public release 1.16 Kern Sibbald
2695 - Many intervening changes/updates.

2706 2001-mm-dd Many releases
2707 - Released internally.
2709 2000-04-09 Release 0.4 Kern Sibbald
2710 - Added a lot of Director configuration code. In
2711 part (a small part), the Director now uses the
2712 bacula.conf file to know what to do. There still
2713 remains a lot to do.
2714 - The file search code is now integrated into the
2715 MySQL database routines, and Bacula is now hooked
2716 into the MySQL database (if so configured). Thus
2717 all the database records are being created, though
2718 there still remains some work in getting all the
2719 details into the records (such as the Storage
2721 - I've defined how Volume pools work (see manual).
2722 - I've defined error message handling though no code
2724 - The following resources and records are implemented
2725 in the Director configuration file (bacula.conf):
2728 Name (passed to Storage daemon)
2731 Password (not yet used)
2733 Name, Address, Port, Password, MediaType
2737 Backup (only one permitted)
2740 Schedule, Messages, Pool (not used)
2743 Include (options ignored)
2744 Exclude (no options)
2749 Debug, syslog, mail, append (not used)
2752 Address, Port, Password (not used)
2755 PoolType, MediaType (not used)
2757 - Added Storage configuration routines.
2759 Name, password (verified against those sent by Director)
2761 Name, Address, Port (address, port must correspond to Director's values)
2764 Name, MediaType (must correspond to those sent by Director)
2765 Archive Device (defines device name)
2768 2000-03-10 Release 0.3 Kern Sibbald
2769 - Implemented new base64 encoding for attributes.
2770 This eliminates some of the error messages in the
2771 sprintfs on the Solaris due to different stat() sizes.
2772 - Implemented the first cut of the file search routines for
2773 the File daemon. The exclusion lists work including wild
2774 cards. There is a lot of work to be done, but the basic
2775 structure is now in place (wild cards do not yet work for
2777 - Completed writing the memory pool code. Now I must
2778 implement it in the daemons.
2779 - Modified the bacula start/stop script so that it has a
2780 better chance of working on SGI and Solaris.
2781 - The catalog code has not been converted to the new file
2784 2000-03-06 Release 0.2 Kern Sibbald
2785 - Integrated John's fixes.
2786 - Made Makefiles self configuring when Makefile.in is changed.
2787 - Added a runit script in the top level that runs bacula
2788 - Added a "bacula" script in the top level directory that
2789 starts and stops the File daemon and the Storage daemon.
2791 2000-03-03 Release 0.1 Kern Sibbald
2792 - Basic Director, File, and Storage daemons.
2793 Standalone Catalog services using MySQL
