1 2002-08-?? Version 1.24 (not yet released)
3 - Made restore actually work.
4 - Made console and gconsole be configured (requested by Chuck)
6 - changed fs in Job record to fileset for clarity
7 - The console run command was not properly picking up the command
9 - Changed add/remove/rm to mark/unmark
10 - Volume keyword VolumeName was wrong, changed to Volume (in restore bsr).
11 - Pass jcr to parse_bsr, and if non-NULL, it will output error messages
12 to Job stream rather than Emsg.
13 - Modified lexical scanner to include caller context so that jcr can
14 be stored in lex context allowing error messages to be properly
16 - Renamed the Job message chain to be jcr_msgs. This eliminated the
17 previous confusion with the default value, now named jcr->messages.
18 - Implemented multi-volume bsr records.
19 - Implemented pm_strcat() and pm_strcpy() to cat/add to memory pool
20 buffers in same way as strcat/strcpy, but expanding buffer.
21 - Modified db_get_volume_names to handle arbitrarily long Volume list.
24 - If the Console program terminated during the printing of messages,
25 the message file was left locked. This was corrected by using the
26 new read-write lock code.
27 - Implemented Pw() and Vw() for obtaining and releasing a write lock
28 using the rwl_xxx routines.
29 - Deleted some old pthread_mutex code from mysql.c
30 - In making the Irix port, I previously corrected the base64 routine so
31 they were not sensitive to the machine definition of char. This made
32 them incompatible with previous versions invalidating MD5 signatures
33 which are in base64 format. I have now corrected this, making the
34 routines compatible with the previous version but also insensitive
35 to the default definition of char.
36 - Removed some unnecessary NPRT() usage in signal.c (pointed out by
38 - Add back BNET_NONO for compatibility with older File daemons.
39 - Implement runing a restore Job in the restore command.
40 - Make installation of query.sql unconditional. To prevent you own file
41 from being overwritten, give it a different name.
42 - Made parse_command_args() in ua take command from ua->cmd, this
43 simplifies it and allows usage in other places -- e.g. building
44 arguments for created run command in restore.
45 - Cleaned the naming of s_full_ctx to be s_jobids.
46 - Write the bsr created in restore to "working-directory"/restore.bsr
47 - Fix bugs in command line scanner in run command -- also some misplaced
49 - Eliminate static cmd in ua_server.c
50 - Eliminate segmentation fault when using the Run command in the
51 Console -- forgot to init_msgs().
54 - Did a good amount of documentation.
55 - Added sql_cmds.c to CVS, forgot, pointed out by Chuck.
56 - Added new platforms/irix directory to CVS
57 - Turn off transaction debug code in sql.c
58 - Reworked the scheduler so that it handles the same Job starting
59 twice in the same hour. Previously it took one or the other.
60 - Tightened up the "slop" in the timings that I programmed to ensure
61 that the same job isn't run twice or that no job was missed.
62 - Increase the sleep time.
63 - Used job_type_to_str() in status so that Admin jobs are correctly reported.
64 - Add internationalization message chars to a number of routines
66 - Make the watchdog timer clear the mutex when it exits.
67 - Some tweaks to the Restore command. It needs fixing when a Job spans
71 - Initial cut at adding Irix File daemon support.
72 - Lots of work on the restore command.
73 - Take a stab at eliminating the "broken pipe message"
74 when the console program prematurely terminates.
75 - Reimplemented transactions for SQLite by keeping
76 them all in the same thread.
77 - quit in the Console program now waits for Bacula to
78 quit. To immediately quit, you must enter .quit
79 - Eliminated BNET_EOF -- this COULD have some negative consequences
80 on interdaemon communications.
81 - Define Job termination status for Admin jobs.
82 - Write new bstrncpy() function that guarantees that strcpy is
84 - Fixed command input in ua_input.c to accept quoted items as a
88 - The changes that added indexes to the SQLite database were
89 lost -- thanks to Chuck for pointing this out. Redone.
90 - Fixed a problem quoting strings in SQLite. This showed up
91 as database errors with files containing ' or " in the filename.
92 - Implemente restore command -- still in progress.
93 - Added indexes to all fields in SQLite that exist in MySQL.
94 - Moved unused immortal files from src/lib to src/immortal.
95 This will permit splitting depkgs.
96 - Started work on adding embedded MySQL. Cannot get the tables
97 to work for the moment. Please don't try to use this option.
98 - Convert to using single quotes for enclosing all strings.
99 - Implement correct quoting algorithm for SQLite strings.
101 - Started centralizing SQL statments in the Director in sql_cmds.c
102 - Changed a number of M_ABORTs to M_ERROR_TERM so that program terminates
103 but does not produce a dump.
104 - Allow wild-card matches in bsr for Client name, and Job.
105 - Change OflineOnUnmount=no as default.
106 - Fixed improper printing of filenames containing a space in bls.c
107 Thanks to Carlos for reporting this.
110 2002-07-26 Release 1.23a
111 - Fix segmentation fault is FD status.
112 - Turn off TRANSACTIONs for SQLite.
114 2002-07-23 Release 1.23
116 - Updated Bacula to handle some minor differences in MySQL 4.0.2
117 (still works with older MySQLs).
118 - Updated MySQL documentation to correct some minor errors.
119 - Added kernstodo to CVS
120 - Fixed create_mysql_database, which I recently accidently broke.
121 - Disallow zero length volume names in Console program.
122 - Create alter_mysql_tables and alter_sqlite_tables for conversion
123 from 1.22 table format to 1.23 table format.
126 - Investigation of SQLite performace problems reported by Chuck.
129 - made root@localhost the default email address because many smtp
130 servers reject root but accept root@localhost
131 - Added an autochangers chapter to the manual.
132 - Documented most of the new features in 1.23
133 - Modified the SQLite interface code to start a transaction at the
134 beginning of a job and commit it at the end of the job. It
135 also commits it after 10000 changes. Hopefully this will
137 - Set the default cache pages from 2000 to 10000 for SQLite (i.e.
138 about 15Megs of memory) hoping to improve performance.
139 - Terminate last filename referenced in FD prior to copy to
140 avoid race problem with multiple threads and no locking.
141 - Enhanced the status output to include the JobType
142 - Print an error message if the email program terminates in error.
143 - If your machine has an MTUNLOCK, do it before doing an OFFLINE to
144 ensure that the door is unlocked.
145 - Added code to stored/append.c to spool attributes. This is in
146 a testing stage and must be explicitly enabled.
147 - Added a no_attributes variable to stored/append.c that prevents
148 the attributes from being sent to the Director. As yet, no way
150 - Modified SQLite code so that after 10000 updates any transaction
151 is committed, then restarted. This keeps it from using too much
153 - Set the default cache size to 10000 pages (previously 2000).
154 - Fixed a segmentation fault on Sun due to no default value for
156 - Added the same indexes to SQLite that I exist in MySQL. This
157 VASTLY reduces CPU usage for lots of inserts.
158 - Added spooling to bnet_send().
161 - The following two changes were prompted by questions/suggestions
163 - If you have "AlwaysOpen = no" in your SD Device
164 resource, Bacula will free() the drive when it
165 is finished with the Job.
166 - If you have "Offline On Unmount = yes", in your
167 SD Device resource, Bacula will offline (or eject)
168 the tape prior to freeing it.
169 - Added Maximum Open Wait to allow open() to wait if drive is busy.
170 - Added RunBeforeJob and RunAfterJob records to Job records.
171 This permits running an external program with the following editing
184 - Added autochanger support to devices.c
185 - Allow user to change Slot in the Volume record.
186 - Implemented code in lib to run an external program
188 - Implemented a changer script for mtx.
189 - Currently the changer commands used are:
190 loaded -- returns number of slot loaded or 0
191 load -- loads a specified slot
192 unload -- unloads the device (returns casette to slot)
193 - Other changer commands defined but not yet used:
194 list -- returns list of slots containing a cassette
195 slots -- returns total number of slots
196 - Implemented ChangerCommand, specified in the SD Device
197 resource, permits editing of:
199 %a = archive device name
200 %c = changer device name
207 - Implemented MaximumChangerWait default 120 seconds. It is
208 specified in the SD Device resource.
211 - Moved techlogs from main directory to be subdirectory of doc
212 - Added code for strerror_r, and detection of gethostbyname_r().
213 - The protocol between the Director and the SD has changed.
214 - Major rework of SD tape mounting to prepare for Changer commands.
215 - Separated Update Media record and Create JobMedia record. These
216 are done from the SD by calling the Director. Need separate Create
217 JobMedia so that when a Job spans a volume, all other Jobs writing
218 the same volume will also have JobMedia records created.
219 - Added message to user indicating selection aborted if he enters .
220 to a Console selection request.
221 - Create a jobstatus_to_ascii() routine for use in status commands.
222 This makes a single routine from three separate pieces of code.
223 Updated the code to properly handle more (all) termination statuses.
224 - Tried to fix the gnome-console to handle history a bit better. There
225 are still some problems with focus not being properly set to the edit
226 box after history replacement.
227 - Removed the shutdown() from bnet_close() hoping to fix Console termination
228 errors that are occassionally seen -- no luck.
229 - Moved add_str() to lib/util and renamed it add_str_to_pool_mem() so that
230 it can be used to edit Job termination codes and Changer command codes.
231 - Reworked how the SD mounts tapes (in device.c) so that control passes through
232 only a single routine. The logic is much simpler than previously, and now
233 adding AutoChanger code is straight forward.
234 - Made SD tape mounting much more fault tolerant -- more cases retry instead
235 of terminating the Job.
236 - Wrote code to edit_device_codes() for Changer commands. Not yet fully
238 - Added a ChangerDevice directive to the Device resource. Still need to add
242 - This documents what I did while on vacation.
243 - A fair amount of documentation.
244 - Implemented Verify Volume to Catalog (needs renaming)
245 - Modified the database to include new MarkId field as
246 well as Counters. Database level is incremented from 1 to 2.
247 - Added first cut of managing autochangers by implementing Slot in DB.
248 - Fixed a good number of M_ERROR messages to be M_FATAL where appropriate.
249 Also converted a number of Emsg() to Jmsg() permitting better Job error
251 - First cut at implementing a general packet passing mechanism for bsock
252 to replace printf and sscanf for passing data.
253 - Made make_xxx_tables and drop_xxx_tables and create_xxx_database
254 for bdb as well as sqlite. With this each database has the
255 same set of scripts (with the exception that MySQL has grant_privileges).
256 - Modified Makefile to only install the database scripts for the
257 database that you are using.
258 - Updated the pdf script to include all the html files.
259 - Did quite a lot of documentation.
260 - Made Bacula compile correctly with DEBUG turned off.
261 - Implemented Pmsg() macros that permit using the debug print
262 routines even with DEBUG off.
263 - Updated job_cancelled() macro to handle JS_FatalError.
264 - Changed db_find_last_full_verify() to db_find_last_jobid(). This
265 permits working with Verify Volume to Catalog.
266 - Removed TRANSACTION code from incrementing NextId for SQLite.
267 - Implemented quick and dirty (not fully functional code) so that
268 console program does not die if ctl-Z is entered.
269 - Cleaned up backup.c a bit adding a bail_out goto to ensure proper
270 handling of errors with minimum code.
271 - Added passing Slot back and forth to Storage daemon with Volume info.
272 - Implemented Slot in Media record in DB.
273 - Implemented first cut of Counter resource in dird_conf.c. A counter
274 resource is part of the Pool resource.
275 - Implemented necessary database record. However, the resource doesn't
276 yet create a DB record.
277 - Implemented onefs (One File System) and recurse options on Include
279 - Implemented autopruning of Verify and Restore Jobs.
280 - Did a better job of calculating thread_concurrency() for Sun systems.
281 This permits better multi-threading allowing all the threads to run
283 - Implemented a wait_for_storage_daemon_termination(), which is used by
284 backup and verify volume.
285 - Clarified a number of UA prompts, and add feedback where certain commands
286 completed but printed nothing. (More work to be done here).
287 - Added a pile of new code to implement Verify Volume to Catalog. It is sort
288 of a hybrid of "restore" and "verify" in that it actually reads the tape,
289 then compares it to the catalog. Need Verify Volume to Client.
290 - Added a good number of checks for job_cancelled() this should permit
291 quicker and more reliable cancelling of jobs.
292 - Fixed one bug in restore where I used ofile instead of lname, which means
293 that if the lname was too long, the memory was not properly reallocated.
294 - Cleaned up find_one.c in findlib quite a bit.
295 - Link smtp static so that it works even if the libraries are messed up.
296 - If mail host is not found, retry with local host in smtp.
297 - Added slot and stream to the bootstrap record processing.
298 - Do offline on tape cartrige for unmount command. This can be turned off
299 by the user in the config file. OffLineOnUnmount in Device resource.
300 - Implemented AutoChanger = yes/no in Device resource.
303 2002-07-07 Release 1.22
304 - All the basic Restore code to handle the boostrap file is
305 now implemented with the exception of the Console Restore command.
306 - Retained compatibility with previous Restore providing no
307 bootstrap file is specified. However, the old code (JobId based)
308 will go away in a future release.
309 - Fixed a number of segmentation faults in the Console program due
310 to printing of NULL pointers -- thanks to Chuck and his Sun for
311 finding and reporting them -- mostly in ua_output.c.
314 - Null pointers now are printed as *None* if NPRT() is used.
315 - At the request of Phil, all resources are now chained in in the
316 order they appear in the config file.
317 - Implement Bootstrap record in the Director's config file, which
318 allows you to specify a predefined bootstrap file for Restore Jobs.
319 - Allow Bootstrap on the Restore record. This is deprecated.
320 - Implemented code to pass the Bootstrap file, if defined, to the
321 File daemon, then from the File daemon to the Storage daemon.
322 - Added ability to set Bootstrap file in the Console when running a Restore.
323 - Allow scan_error() routine to be passed to lex_open_file(). This permits
324 using lex in the Storage daemon without worrying that it will ABORT on
325 a syntax error. More work is needed to direct the error messages correctly.
326 - Improved error messages a bit when config syntax errors are found.
327 - Tested and corrected some errors in match_bsr.c
328 - Removed askdir.c from bls and bextract by defining dummy entry points.
329 - bextract now has bootstrap pretty well integrated.
330 - Changed bextract ABORTs into FATAL and exit(1) or ERROR_TERMINATE.
332 - Eliminated at least one lld and replaced it by edit_uint64()
333 - Eliminated a few more _PROTO()s.
334 - Corrected a problem with the SQL for in query.sql for
335 Listing Volumes to Restore All Files
338 - Additional documentation.
339 - Reduce the time the jcr mutex is locked in lib/jcr.c
340 - More null pointer printing fixes in lib/parse_conf.c (debug output only).
341 - Added daemon filename to Kaboom message so I know what daemon died.
342 - Fix big bad bug introduced in watchdog.c last update that caused
343 a segmentation violation (forgot to check for NULL pointer).
344 - Add a bit more info to bad returns from Stored when starting
349 - Fixed backup scanning forgot one T_STRING -> T_UNQUOTED_STRING
350 - changed all rwlock_t to brwlock_t to avoid conflicts with
352 - Added NPRT() macro to allow printing of NULL pointers, which
353 segment fault on Solaris.
354 - Cast printing of pid_t to int for Solaris compiler.
357 - Added expect argment to lex_get_token().
358 - Added tree.c and tree.h to lib directory.
361 - Improvements to the bootstrap compiler
362 - Implemented first cut of bootstrap code in the Storage daemon
363 - Modified the authentication code to be more explicit during
365 - Added a few more debug message numbers with more arguments (Dmsg10, ...)
366 - Added more and more precise error messages when authentication fails.
367 - Implemented new "expect" codes in the lexical scanner that allows
368 the caller to specify what he wants.
369 - Added integer, positive integer, 64 bit integer, and integer ranges,
370 and name scanning to lex.
371 - Implemented new lex code in parse_conf.c, this reduces significantly
373 - Hopefully fixed a watchdog race bug that caused the watchdog to time
374 out a line after 1 hour rather than 6 days.
377 - Implemented a Bootstrap file parser and matcher.
378 - Implemented first cut of bootstrap code in bextract
379 - Started clarifying different termination codes.
380 - Added M_ERROR_TERM to immediately terminate the daemon -- no dump.
381 Also changed a few termination codes as appropriate.
382 - Fixed create_jobmedia_record() to include all the fields such as
383 StartFile/EndFile, StartBlock/EndBlock.
384 - Print user friendly message when query mode ends.
385 - Fixed ls style print routines (bextract, bls, restore) to check
386 buffer size, to print the link if any, and to used edit_uint64()
388 - Moved scan_to_eol() and s_err() to lex.c to avoid dragging in
389 parse_conf.c for new bsr scanning code.
390 - New files: bsr.h, parse_bsr.c and match_bsr.c. parse_bsr.c parses
391 a Bootstrap file, and match_bsr.c matches a bsr against a tape.
392 - use strcasecmp() in several places instead of lcase().
393 - Add first cut of bootstrap to bextract.
394 - Added File Size limit -- writes EOF after limit exeeded.
396 2002-06-12 Release 1.21
397 - Fixed several problems with filenames being truncated if
398 they contain spaces. Thanks to the user that reported this.
399 - N.B. To get the new queries, after the "make" and
400 "make install" you must explicitly replace the
401 existing query.sql by query.sql.new. query.sql is a
402 user configuration file, so it is not overwritten.
403 - Added GZIP compression of Included files.
404 - Added additional fields to tape SOS record permitting better
405 recovery with no database.
406 - Be sure to remove any !terminate statements you may have
407 in your config files.
408 - MUST UPDATE ALL DAEMONS due to protocol change to handle new
412 - Updated examples directory with my most recent config files.
413 - Modified the M_TERM meaning to mean that Bacula has
414 terminated in error without producing a dump. Previously,
415 it meant that Bacula terminate (with or without error).
416 You should remove any !terminate from your messages
418 - Changed the order of the libraries in the link so that
419 tcp wrappers link properly. Thanks Phil for reporting this.
420 - A user reported that filenames containing spaces were truncated
421 in bextract. This was indeed the case. They were also truncated
422 in Restore as well as in Verify. They are, hopefully, all fixed
424 - Made a few error conditions in Verify non-fatal.
425 - Modified the Console "query" command to permit multiple SQL
426 statements per command.
427 - Implemented three new "query" options:
428 List last 10 Full Backups for a Client
429 List Volumes used by selected JobId
430 List Volumes to Restore All Files
431 To use them, simply type "query" to the Console program, and
432 select the one you want.
433 - Modified bextract to default to extracting all files (i.e. /).
434 - Cleaned up the code in bextract a bit.
437 - Improve Verify command to include files examined.
438 - Eliminate fcntl() locking of the console file and replaced
439 it with a pthreads mutex.
440 - Note Director - SD protocol is changed to handle new tape
441 information (Fileset, JobType, JobLevel).
442 - Create config.out that contains a summary of ./configure
443 to see what you previously configured: "cat config.out"
444 - Implemented GZIP compression. Added addition syntax to
445 Include { } resource to permit setting of any GZIP compression
452 Level 1 is minimum compression and level 9 is maximum. Using just
453 GZIP gives the default (level 6).
454 - Enhanced the tape format to include the unique Job name, FileSetName,
455 JobType, and JobLevel in the Start/End of Session records. The code
456 detects that tape level difference and acts accordingly. You can
457 add data in the new format to old tapes.
458 - Fixed an incorrect display message in the prune command.
459 - Began implementation of Verify Volume and Verify Data.
460 - Cleaned up File daemon restore.c a bit ensuring that termination
461 cleanup is done and all possible Emsgs are converted to Jmsgs.
462 - Modify bls.c to use common setup routines. This reduced the big
463 code duplication that creeped in when I added different listing
464 options. Also, changing tapes is now handled uniformily in a subroutine.
467 2002-05-27 Release 1.20
468 - Started documenting Catalog Pruning and Recycling.
469 Added catmaintenance.html and recycling.html
470 - Fixed the query command bug.
471 - Implemented PID files to prevent two copies of Bacula
472 from running at the same time. Be sure you --with-pid-dir
473 points to a working directory.
474 - Modified ASSERT() to cause a segmentation violation. This
476 - Worked on gnome-console. It paints better, it tells you if it
477 is ready to accept a command or processing one, and it is
478 almost entirely GTK+ (rather than GNOME, I'm removing GNOME
480 - Limit to 100 the number of tape labeling errors in a single Job.
481 - Add some additional ASSERT()s to the database routines. I don't
482 like ASSERTs but they do catch bugs.
483 - Tested and debugged recycling of Volumes. Needed to change
484 the Director-SD protocol slightly.
485 - Removed the experimental SIGHUP in the Director as it is a
486 potential source of errors.
487 - Added Level, Pool, Messages, and Storage keyword/value scanning
488 to the Schedule Run record.
489 - Improved printing of Schedule resources with "show schedules"
490 - Do not autoprune Jobs/Files if the Job errs.
491 - Updated newvol() to pass back the updated Media record.
492 - Fixed the "update pool" command, which was broken during a much
493 earlier code reorganization.
494 - Improved a few of the pruning messages.
495 - Removed readline inclusions from gnome-console (hang over from console).
496 - Make Jmsg use daemon message handler if no message handler is defined.
497 This is always the case in the SD and FD.
498 - Started removing __PROTO(). With C++ prototypes are manditory, so why
499 keep around legacy code.
500 - Added a good deal of message internationalization -- more to be done.
501 - Move cached Path into mdb structure and use POOLMEM.
502 - Fix verify bug introduced last update causing incorrect diffs
503 by turning off autopruning.
504 - Started adding code to distinguish Errors from Fatal Errors.
505 - Errors are now counted in message.c for a Job.
506 - More POOLMEM cleanups.
507 - Implemented Automatic pruning.
508 - Implemented Automatic recycling of Volumes.
509 - Added PruneJobs/Files/Volumes=yes or no to Job resource. If set,
510 it forces the specified pruning.
511 - Modified rwlock to accept multiple nested write lock
513 - Modified the cats directory to use the new rwlock mechanism
514 in place of P() and V().
515 - Defined db_lock(mdb) and db_unlock(mdb). They are in effect
517 - Add CVS Id's to most files.
518 - Made first cut at AutoPrune
519 - Added new autoprune file that is called at the end of
520 each Job. It then decides when and what to prune and
521 calls the UA prune routines.
522 - Modified Run (in Schedule resource) to permit overrides of
523 Level, Pool, Storage, and Messages. (not tested).
524 - Added more POOLMEM in place of char.
525 - Implemented daemon pid files. This prevents multiple
526 daemons from running simultaneously. You can run multiple
527 daemons if they listen on different ports.
528 - Documented the Schedule resource a bit better.
529 - Began gently adding a POOLMEM type (perviously void).
530 For the moment it is a #define to char, but long term
531 it should be its own typedef.
532 - Corrected a bit of spacing on the status bar of gnome-console
533 - Added Admin and Archive Job types.
534 - Implemented multiple Messages resources. Each daemon has
535 its own message resource, which defaults if not defined.
536 Jobs may now have different message handlers.
537 - Cleaned up a bit of duplicate code in backup, verify, and
538 restore by creating appropriate subroutines in job.c
539 - Added Type, Client, FileSet, and Level resource record
540 definitions to the Director. These can be used in place
541 of the Backup = ..., Verify = ..., ... commands. This needs
543 - Corrected an incorrect message in the prune code and added
544 the number of Files pruned in the message.
545 - Corrected several paint problems with gnome-console.
546 - Added a bit of printout in signal handler during traceback.
547 - Cleaned up most of sm_check() to be turned on/off by define
550 2002-05-10 Release 1.19
551 - Allow the user to select a new period for pruning.
552 - Lots of additions to the manual -- prune and purge
554 - Applied Phil's configure.in fix for --prefix, ...
555 - Fixed bug found by Phil (patch supplied) in updating
556 MD5 signatures (revert to 32 bit FileId, move "static"
557 variables into JCR) (catreq.c fd-cmds.c).
558 - Reverted to using INTEGER for FileId in make_sql_tables
559 due to a bug in MySQL.
560 - Change editing code to %d for FileId.
561 - Remove sqlite in make distclean in cats directory.
562 - Remove console.conf in console during make distclean.
563 - Remove gnome-console.conf during make distclean.
564 - Remove bacula-dir.conf during make distclean.
565 - Set default level when using Console if none specified.
566 Bug reported by Phil.
567 - A simple . command from Console is ignored.
568 - Change program named from filed to bacual-fd in winmain.cpp
569 - Change default config file for Win32 in winmain.cpp
570 - Free namebuf on early return from find_one.c. Bug reported by Phil.
571 - Modify testfind.c to dump orphaned buffers.
572 - Removed terabytes from parse_conf.c because of problems with
574 - Turn off gnome options in gnome-console by constructing empty argv.
575 - Fixes to Verify when only MD5 differs.
576 - Insert 0 for MD5 as default rather than space.
577 - Allow .messages "transparent" command while reading input
579 - In dird/verify.c ensure that correct filename is printed if only
580 the MD5 differs. Minor reindenting caused large diff.
581 - Delete unused code from backup.c
582 - In filed/verify.c ensure that same algorithm as backup.c is used
583 to pass back MD5 signatures -- especially for directories and files
584 that cannot be read. Change dummy filename from X to *MD5-id*.
585 This dummy value should never be printed.
586 - Make gnome-console poll Director every 5 seconds for output.
587 This means that queued up messages are displayed at reasonable
588 intervals. Delete some unused code hanging around from the tty
590 - Begin implementation of prune commands.
591 - Add command line history to gnome-console. Not yet saved across sessions.
592 - Fixed some broken URLs in the manual.
594 - Wrote first cut of "prune files" and "prune jobs".
595 - Added command line history to gnome-console 2500 lines max.
596 - Widened store_time() and associated variables to 64 bits using
597 new btime_t definition.
598 - Removed GNOME about box and replaced it with
599 a somewhat crude Gtk+ about box in the gnome-console.
600 - Widened StartDay in the Job DB record to be 64 bits.
601 - Changed edit_uint_ to edit_uint64_ everywhere. Much more
602 descriptive of what is done.
603 - Removed most llds and replaced them with %s and edit_uint64.
604 This makes the code a bit easier to read for beginners.
605 - Added a btime_t typedef which is 64 bits wide.
606 - Added most of the code needed to do Purge and Prune of
607 database. Not yet tested. Please do not use.
608 - Additional config options for Console.
609 - Started adding code for Automatic Recycling of Volumes.
610 - Allow arbitrary length filenames in Verify code.
611 - Fix incorrect filename in Verify code.
612 - Significant enhancement to number scanning in config parser.
613 - Requires initializing MySQL tables, or applying cats/alter.sql
614 to modify Media table.
615 - Modified Makefile to printer a much more visible
616 message if the make ends in error.
617 - Added the Purge value to the VolStatus in the Media table.
618 This value is set if the Volume is purged.
619 - Enhanced the db_delete_media_record() routine to delete
620 all associated records in the database.
621 - Modified Console to always write to the variable "output"
622 rather than stdout. This will permit directing output to a file.
623 - Enhanced the Console configuration file to have a Console
624 resource. This will allow us to add an rcfile and history file.
625 - Modified Find_next_vol in catreq.c to search for "Recycle"
626 volumes if there are none marked Append. Also made Get_Vol_info
627 return the VolStatus to the Storage daemon.
628 - Allow upper/lower case match on job level names.
629 - Added another warning message to the Console "delete media" command.
630 - Corrected a number of FileId types from uint64_t to FileId_t in
632 - In ua server close database before freeing JCR (because pointer is
633 kept in ua and jcr structures).
634 - parse all numbers as doubles. Do lots of checking for valid number
635 formats. Allow numbers in scientific form (e.g. 1.5e+10).
636 - Remove terabyte modifier as it doesn't work in some compilers.
637 - Fix bug in handling some modifiers.
638 - Added all necessary code for Recycle to Storage daemon. A Volume
639 marked Recycle will now be overwritten.
640 - Filled out the prune command a bit and did some testing.
641 - Make console accept redirected input.
642 - Altered the Table definitions to include Recycle,
643 FileRetention, JobRetention, and AutoPrune.
644 - Widened StartDay to 64 bits.
645 - Use JobId_t in more places.
646 - Added the new table fields to the database record definitions.
647 - Changed Recycle from string to a binary quantity.
648 - Added a Version table with a VersionId to detect.
649 future changes in the database. This should prevent
650 a Bacula from working with a database that is not in sync.
651 - Modify Console to accept input from a file. This will permit
652 the .read command and allow reading a .rc file.
653 - Added new retention and recycle variables to the Director's configuration.
654 - The UA subroutines or commands can now be called from core
655 code because the output routines detect the absence of a
656 UA socket and direct output to the Job.
657 - Added a verbose flage to the ua packet to permit reduction of
658 output while running a UA command (prune) from a Job.
659 - Did a fair amount of work on the prune command. Prune Volume now works.
660 - Purge Volume now works.
661 - Made last changes for integrating prune and purge commands.
662 - Add -ltermcap to CONS_LIBS when readline is configured.
663 More work to be done to search for termcap.
664 - Added cats/drop_sqlite_tables.in, which will delete the SQLite database.
665 - Got CWEB working so that we can compile filesys.w and immortal.w
666 - Modified depkgs to include cweb.
667 - Note, CWEB is not yet used by the core Bacula code.
668 - Made cats/alter.sql, which alters an old database to bring it
669 up to the new format. This only works with MySQL since SQLite does
670 not have the ALTER SQL command.
671 - Changed the old StartDay field in the db to be JobTDate, which is
672 the latest time/date in widened Unix time format that the Job ran.
673 This value is used when doing pruning.
674 - Added code in cats/sql.c to verify that the database internal version
675 corresponds to the db version compiled in Bacula. It is set to 1 currently.
676 - Lots of changes to cats to bring the SQL up to date with the new
677 retention period changes.
678 - Added Console command code to permit changing a Volume's retention period.
679 - Removed old code that used date_encode() and replaced it with widened
681 - Started modifying Message resource scanner so that we can have multiple
682 message resources. Much more work to be done.
683 - Moved scanning for time into new library routine string_to_btime().
685 2002-04-22 Release 1.18
686 - Applied Phil's configure.in fix for --prefix, ...
687 - Fixed bug found by Phil (patch supplied) in updating
688 MD5 signatures (revert to 32 bit FileId, move "static"
689 variables into JCR) (catreq.c fd-cmds.c).
690 - Reverted to using INTEGER for FileId in make_sql_tables
691 due to a bug in MySQL.
692 - Change editing code to %d for FileId.
693 - Remove sqlite in make distclean in cats directory.
694 - Remove console.conf in console during make distclean
695 - Remove gnome-console.conf during make distclean
696 - Remove bacula-dir.conf during make distclean
697 - Set default level when using Console if none specified.
698 Bug reported by Phil.
699 - A simple . command from Console is ignored.
700 - Change program named from filed to bacual-fd in winmain.cpp
701 - Change default config file for Win32 in winmain.cpp
702 - Free namebuf on early return from find_one.c. Bug reported by
704 - Modify testfind.c to dump orphaned buffers.
705 - Removed terabytes from parse_conf.c because of problems with
707 - Turn off gnome options in gnome-console by constructing empty
710 2002-04-18 Release 1.17 Kern Sibbald
711 - Ensure that platforms Makefiles are called for clean
713 - Hide a lot of Makefile messages with @
714 - Applied Phil's configure.in patch. Thanks.
715 - Doc updates, many to clarify points brought up by Phil.
716 - Applied Phil's make_mysql_tables.in patch. Thanks.
717 - Made authenticate.c in dird test bnet_send status.
718 - Make label a bit more friendly with extra info message.
719 - Add level 200 to debug info in run command.
720 - Remove old code from findlib/testfind.c so that it compiles.
721 - Add two minute max wait to cram-md5 authentication. Hopefully,
722 this will catch non-responding WinNT daemons.
723 - Allow time and size modifiers to be upper or lower case.
724 - Turn off old CYGWIN patch for pthread_cond_timedwait() bug that
725 now causes File daemon hangs on WinNT.
726 - Fix mount messages for restore. Previous updates to save
727 broke the restore code.
728 - By default write fixed block sizes rather than variable block
729 sizes. My Sony DAT simply does not work (reread failures) with
730 variable block sizes.
731 - Data split across tapes was not being correctly restored
732 (at least on DAT tapes).
733 - Implement MaximumBlockSize and MinumBlockSize statements in
734 Storage daemon so user can specify variable block sizes if
736 - Return error if block checksum error on read (previously
738 - Fixed some error messages in bls, and in some cases exit(1)
739 rather than ABORT. There remain ABORTs to be examined.
740 - Made a local copy of tcpd.h and corrected the function
741 prototype problem for C++.
743 2002-04-14 First public release 1.16 Kern Sibbald
744 - Many intervening changes/updates.
746 2001-09-29 Release 1.0 Kern Sibbald
747 - Fixes to problems found at John's
749 - See techlogs/kes25Sep01 for details
751 2001-09-25 Release 1.0 Kern Sibbald
752 - Helped John install at his site.
753 He is backing up one Linux machine and
756 2001-mm-dd Many releases
757 - Released internally.
759 2000-04-09 Release 0.4 Kern Sibbald
760 - Added a lot of Director configuration code. In
761 part (a small part), the Director now uses the
762 bacula.conf file to know what to do. There still
764 - The file search code is now integrated into the
765 MySQL database routines, and Bacula is now hooked
766 into the MySQL database (if so configured). Thus
767 all the database records are being created, though
768 there still remains some work in getting all the
769 details into the records (such as the Storage
771 - I've defined how Volume pools work (see manual).
772 - I've defined error message handling though no code
774 - The following resources and records are implemented
775 in the Director configuration file (bacula.conf):
778 Name (passed to Storage daemon)
781 Password (not yet used)
783 Name, Address, Port, Password, MediaType
787 Backup (only one permitted)
790 Schedule, Messages, Pool (not used)
793 Include (options ignored)
799 Debug, syslog, mail, append (not used)
802 Address, Port, Password (not used)
805 PoolType, MediaType (not used)
807 - Added Storage configuration routines.
809 Name, password (verified against those sent by Director)
811 Name, Address, Port (address, port must correspond to Director's values)
814 Name, MediaType (must correspond to those sent by Director)
815 Archive Device (defines device name)
818 2000-03-10 Release 0.3 Kern Sibbald
819 - Implemented new base64 encoding for attributes.
820 This eliminates some of the error messages in the
821 sprintfs on the Solaris due to different stat() sizes.
822 - Implemented the first cut of the file search routines for
823 the File daemon. The exclusion lists work including wild
824 cards. There is a lot of work to be done, but the basic
825 structure is now in place (wild cards do not yet work for
827 - Completed writing the memory pool code. Now I must
828 implement it in the daemons.
829 - Modified the bacula start/stop script so that it has a
830 better chance of working on SGI and Solaris.
831 - The catalog code has not been converted to the new file
834 2000-03-06 Release 0.2 Kern Sibbald
835 - Integrated John's fixes.
836 - Made Makefiles self configuring when Makefile.in is changed.
837 - Added a runit script in the top level that runs bacula
838 - Added a "bacula" script in the top level directory that
839 starts and stops the File daemon and the Storage daemon.
841 2000-03-03 Release 0.1 Kern Sibbald
842 - Basic Director, File, and Storage daemons.
843 Standalone Catalog services using MySQL
