17 - Fixed ./configure to disable readline rather than stop if
18 readline.h is not found
19 - Fixed a typo in the SQLite database update script as reported
20 by Robert J. Clark - thanks.
22 - Removed src/win32/pthreads and src/win32/zlib from the source
24 - Created a new depkgs-win32 that has the pthreads and zlib source
26 - Removed the JobDefs from the default Restore job as it has a
27 schedule. Thanks to Matt Howard for this.
30 2004-04-06 Version 1.34.0 06Apr04 Release
32 - Turn off SIGQUIT in console.
34 - A good number of document updates.
35 - Fixed the order which multiple files are accepted for
36 inclusion in the restore tree due to the fact that PostgreSQL
37 returns files in a different order from their insertion.
39 - Fix autochanger test in btape. It used old editing routines.
40 - Fix run_program to return 0 if program runs and no output.
41 - Add more debug to run_program.
42 - Make signal debug print signal string.
44 - Build console with client-only build.
45 - Add better error messages to some of the db_xxx routines.
46 - Apply Christopher Hull's patches for proper Win32 shutdown.
47 - Eliminate True and False in favor of true and false.
48 - Put correct thread id in jcr once the correct thread is running.

50 - Rework sm_dump() so that it won't overrun a buffer when editing
52 - Fix watchdog to properly remove entries while walking the
54 - Fix termination of last_jobs list by removing broken code.
56 - Update dbcheck to fix Paths without a trailing slash and Filenames
57 with a trailing slash.
59 - Add -p option to all SD programs including bacula-sd. It causes
60 Bacula to proceed or forge on in case of I/O errors. It is unlikely
61 this will help, and it is strongly recommended against running
62 the daemon with this option in production.
63 - Tweaked the Makefile not to create the gnome directories except
64 when doing a gnome install.
66 - Implement Qmsg() queuing of messages to prevent recursion especially
67 for bnet.c where recursion is fatal.
68 - Add detection of ncurses if the termcap lib is not found.
69 - Tweak winabout -- start cleanup.
70 - Fix dlist again, when list is destroyed, be sure to null head and
73 - Make the default for restore to have nothing marked.
74 - The "all" keyword on the restore command marks everything by
76 - The "done" keyword on the restore command prevents user interaction
77 with the tree routines -- used mainly for scripting (regression ...).
78 - Correct a bug in the last_sibling code.
79 - Add alphabetic sorting of siblings so the "dir" and "ls" commands
80 during restore show files in alphabetic order.
82 - Based on Mike Acar's suggestions rework tree insert routines. Improve
83 performance by using a last_sibling link for inserts.
85 - Apply corrected SQL to sql_get.c supplied by Dan Langille.
86 - Implement "delete job jobid=xxx jobid=yyy ..."
87 - Implement "purge volume=xxx volume=yyy ..."

91 Reported by Vadim Zotov.
92 - Better error diagnostics in ./configure for detecting termcap library.
94 - Restore old sql.c split_path and file name since it seems to have
95 broken the Verify stuff.
97 - Hunt down missing free_locked_jcr() in SD that caused zombies.
98 - Modify status outputs to be more consistent for zombie checking.
99 - Add tests to regression script for zombie jobs.
100 - Set EIO in dev_errno for all error returns when bad data found. This
101 fixes ERR=Success messages.
102 - Make error messages all contain ERROR for easy regression testing.
103 - Add sanity check in DIR for VolFiles becoming smaller.
105 - Second cut GTK+ restore GUI. Ready for testing but much more to do.
106 - Phil reported an sql path length=0 message. This broke saves of
108 - Fixed seg fault in btape "test" due to missing allocation of dcr.
109 - Tweaked some btape messages.
110 - Sort Volume names in Job report according to the order they were
111 written -- user request.
113 - First cut GTK+ restore GUI.
114 - Applied bsmtp patch supplied by a user. Thanks.
115 - Made a new split_path_and_filename() subroutine -- in lib/scan.c
117 - Fix "typos" in RedHat install-autostart Makefile.in
119 - Added two tar files that Phil sent for adding slackware support.
120 Thanks Phil and Matt Howard.
121 - Fix relabel command -- || should have been &&.
122 - Correct once more the scheduling algorithm -- this time it should
125 - Implement simple spool statistics printed by "status sd".
126 - Cleanup/add spool error messages.
127 - On multiple ctl-c, exit from console quickly.
128 - Implement code to select a different Volume in the SD if the
129 current Volume is busy -- requested by Patrick Cole.
130 - Change postgreSQL make tables to use bigint instead of integer
131 for StartBlock and EndBlock because
132 there is no unsigned integer in postgreSQL and these fields use 32 bits.
133 - Implement multiple drive autochanger support -- prompted by email of
136 - Update version and date in Win32 build.
137 - Fix bug in run_conf with month range zapping wday and wom.
138 - Correct editing of port for PQsetdbLogin in postgresql.c as reported
139 by J. Conroy, and do a second try.
141 - Integrate Phil's Makefile patch.
142 - Add SpoolDirectory to SD Device resource.
143 - Add MaximumJobSpoolSize to SD Device resource.
144 - Add MaximumSpoolSize to SD Device resource.
145 - Implement the above.
146 - Make despooling lock the device so only it writes
147 to the device during despooling.
149 - Data spooling now passes the regression tests.
150 - Added "Files Expected" to the restore job report.
151 - Implemented SpoolData = yes/no in the Job resource
152 - Implemented SpoolData = yes/no in the Run overrides.
153 - Note, you must have a 1.33.4-09Mar05 SD or later with the Director since
154 the DIR->SD protocol has changed to support data spooling.
155 - Remove the confusing "Which DBMS do you want to use (please select only one):"
156 messages from ./configure.
157 - Fix broken Jmsg with missing argument in find_one.c
159 - Second cut data spooling code.
160 - Fix missing piece of yesterday's patch.
162 - Integrate patches supplied by Jason Conroy that fix Slot numbers
165 - This version contains a *major* addition to the SD structures.
166 Many variables have been moved out of the JCR into a new DCR
167 (Device Context Record). This required quite a few changes, and
168 introduced a bit of instability. In the end, after a few more
169 rounds of changes, the DCR will replace virtually all arguments
170 to the low level SD read/write routines. This change permits
171 (with a bit more code) the SD to write to multiple devices at
172 the same time for a single Job. It also facilitates adding the
174 - Added a patch that fixed the port specification for postgresql.
175 - Fixed findlib/find_one.c so that it will complain about backing
176 up a hard linked file twice, which makes a restore impossible.
177 - Tighten up permissions on pid file.
178 - Attempt to avoid warnings when casting 64 bit pointers to an
180 - Added skeleton code for data spooling.
181 - Make sure spooled attributes are discarded on error.
183 - Updated getdiskinfo in rescue/linux to handle the fact that the
184 sfdisk -s option now includes info on partitions. Also, before
185 creating the diskinfo files, clean out the old ones.
187 - Add debug and error output to jobq.c
188 - Fix some minor errors in debug output of scheduler.c
189 - Add "trace on/off" command and modify trace code in message.c
190 to work off trace flag rather than #defines.
192 - If console is found during install warn user (new name is bconsole).
193 - On install copy console.conf to bconsole.conf if it exists.
194 - Make RunAfterJob error non-fatal.
195 - Rework minor details in status output.
196 - Attempt to define all values for "consoles" in JCR to avoid
199 - Use net start bacula to start Bacula on WinXP/NT/2K
200 systems after installation.
201 - Change a few strcpy()s to bstrncpy()s in signal.
202 - Add "gui on/off" command to console to turn on gui mode,
203 which will adapt Bacula better to batch or gui programs.
204 Currently, it prevents commas from being inserted into
205 numbers in the list command.
206 - Tweak some of the Makefiles so that the install is done with
207 the right program (nothing really changed).
208 - Install logrotate in the "make autostart" of Bacula on RedHat.
209 - Implement SIGHUP while jobs are running. It *seems* to work but is
210 a bit fragile and still crashes if you push it. More work needed.
211 - Applied Phil's GNOME 1.4 patch. Very clean. Thanks Phil.
212 - Major updates to the native Win32 installer.
214 - Restructure free of conf resources to handle job_end_push()
215 and SIGHUP. Lots of changes little substance.
217 - Add mtimeonly=yes/no and keepatime=yes/no to Include list
219 - Allow no modifier in time and size specifications.
220 - Attempt to implement disk seeking. More work needed.
221 - Implement more in win32 installer and test it.
223 - Implement kb, mb, and gb modifiers for size, which mean
224 1,000 bytes, 1,000,000, ... bytes.
225 - Add Makefile to src/win32 to allow building the full
226 release -- it calls nmake where appropriate.
227 - Remove the rsi directory from win32 as suggested by Christopher
228 - Add Michel Meyers' nsi file to win32 and integrate it with
231 - Add the frigging _O_BINARY to the right variable. Win32 works!
232 - Add debug code to state file. There is a problem with Win32 read
233 returning one byte less than it should.
234 - Implement a number of new functions for alist so that it has
235 equivalent functionality to dlist. It will be used for
237 - More work on state file.
238 - Added a popup message box on Windows if Bacula Aborts.
239 - Attempt to shutdown the FD server, but doesn't work on Windows. This
240 would have given a cleaner shutdown, no problem.
243 - Attempt to fix state file on Win32 -- no luck.
244 - Add HPUX tweaks to configure.in
245 - Update quickstart and install.wml of doc.
246 - Eliminate extern int h_errno from bnet.c by including netdb.h
247 - Eliminate NumJobs from last_job structure so that FD and SD
248 correctly report what is in the state file.
250 - Implement daemon state file, and save/restore last_jobs list.
251 - Fix time routines in win32 compat.cpp
252 - Fix a bug of not checking the bpipe_open() status in do_shell_expansion().
254 - Add Volker's bacula script to the SuSE directory and convert it
256 - Make LockRes() and UnlockRes() use read/write locks and have
257 debug info to trace locking and unlocking.
258 - Begin work of implementing SIGHUP. It is now enabled for
259 the Director and works only if there are no jobs running,
260 in addition, if the new conf file is incorrect, it will
261 terminate Bacula. Much more work to be done. I've figured
262 out a scheme to implement it with running jobs without
263 adding individual semaphores or use counts.
264 - Sort "list jobs" by StartTime rather than JobId, which can
267 - Add a lot of "const" to char * arguments to keep the native
269 - Added first cut of message queuing to prevent recursion in
270 low level routines. This code is not yet working.
271 - Spent a *huge* amount of time looking at the tape driver
272 code in the wake of several reports of tape labels getting
273 trashed. The code looks fine.
274 - Created a tape with an error (by writing a block at the
275 beginning of a tape that had valid data), and found that
276 Under Linux there is no way to read past an I/O error.
277 I tried mt; I tried my own program (btape); and I tried
278 using scsitape, which talks directly to the scsi driver.
279 This is *VERY BAD* news.
280 - I spent an *enormous* amount of time enhancing the btape
281 test program as well as making the fill command work with
282 both one and two tapes and the autochanger if configured.
283 The multiple tape fill test is now quite comprehensive.
284 It checks the last block on the first tape, the first block
285 on the second tape, and the last block (11) on the second
287 - Teaked the tape driver for several functions to use the
288 OS driver's notion of mt_file if there is an error.
290 - Add DB update scripts retrieved by Scott to a new updatedb
291 directory at the top level.
292 - Add -p option to bcopy to allow ignoring errors on input.
293 - COALESCE(xx,0) does not work on PostgreSQL because the 0 is not a
294 correct time. Replaced by adding LastWritten IS NULL to the sort
295 line as was first suggested by JML.
297 - Use COALESCE(LastWritten, 0) in sql_find.c to get NULLs to sort last.
299 - Add write/read and positioning test to btape "test" program.
301 - Fix bad printf of InChanger flag reported by Pascal Pederiva.
302 - Fix bad indexing off stack in authenticate.c reported by
305 - Add \n to hosts.access reject message.
306 - Implement security message class and make hosts.access message use
309 - Fix check_memory bug in ua_query.c, which gives a bus error on Solaris.
310 This affected only the query command.
312 - Added backup to cdwriter script to examples provided by Johan Decock.
313 - Fixed a bug where ls really did lsmark (just invert command table
315 - Fix bug where a soft linked file and a directory had the same name
316 by treating the soft link as a directory and putting the entries under
317 it. This fixes the bug reported by Alexander Mueller.
318 - Fix a deadlock situation in the new watchdog code where the
319 watchdog locks its semaphore, and attempts to lock the jcr_chain,
320 but another thread has locked the jcr_chain and wants to free a
321 watchdog, which tries to lock the watchdog semaphore -- deadlock!
322 Used read/write locks to solve the problem.
323 - Improved the error messages when I/O errors or buffer id errors
324 are detected, and prevent non-sense errors from being printed.
325 - Fix some incorrect messages in restore if no name is supplied
326 on the command line (e.g. pool= ).
327 - Add the third digit to the release version number.
329 - Add -l option to bls that causes it to ignore tape label errors.
331 - Correct problems with jobs scheduled at a later time by hand.
332 Missing unlock(), backward test on pthread_create status.
333 - Fix setip crash reported by Alan Brown.
334 - Create bacula.spec.in in SuSE directory from Scott.
335 - Fix missing unlock() in ua_status on access denial.
336 - Lots of little cleanups, improving jcr use_count debug printing.
337 - Add EMSG to mem_pool utilization statistics.
339 - New bacula.spec.in file from Scott
340 - Add Scott's spec file to the platforms/suse directory
341 - Modify configure.in to make platforms/suse/bacula.spec
342 - Do not allow a resource name to be specified twice.
344 2004-01-30 Version 1.33-30Jan04 Release
346 - Apply Jess Guardiani's second fix to list autochanger volumes without
347 opening the drive (necessary on FreeBSD if no tape is in the drive).
348 - Added Postgresql configure search libraries recommended by Alan Brown.
350 - Reworked the command line handler in restore to walk through the
351 arguments one at a time. This makes the file= entries work correctly.
352 Also reworked the code that takes the MediaType and finds a
355 - I've noticed that the backups of Rufus, my development machine, can be
356 "stuck" for about 12 hours, then suddenly they run. In running the
357 debugger, I see that it was stuck on the select() statement waiting
358 for the Hello. Why this happens I am not sure. I re-organized the code
359 a bit because it didn't seem to be as robust as it could, but I cannot
361 - As a consequence of the above, I have implemented a new bsock timer that
362 can be started and stopped. This is based on Nic Bellamy's new watchdog
363 code. The timer is set with start_bsock_timer(bsock, timeout); If the
364 timeout expires, the bsock will be marked as timed_out and interrupted
365 with a pthread_kill() on the current thread.
366 - Added 5 minute bsock timers to all the opening Hello/authentication
367 exchanges between the various daemons.
369 - New spec file from Scott.
370 - New patch file from Scott for create_sqlite_database
371 - Fix crash in run command if invalid pool specified on the command line
372 and then the user cancels the Pool prompt.
373 - Separate Console and ConsoleFont resources in gnome2 conf files.
374 - Remove possibly bad ASSERTs from bnet.c
375 - Remove open() of device in dircmd.c, which fails on FreeBSD with
376 an autoloader -- thanks to Jesse Guardiani for this fix.
378 - Remove all "hostname -s" from configure except for RedHat. Use uname -n instead.
379 - Implement SetIP command.
380 - Implement Close On Poll in Device resource on SD.
381 - Implement Full, Inc, and Diff Pools.
382 - Implement Access control lists for Consoles.
384 - Define default working_dir as /var/bacula/working.
385 - Implement setip console command to set new IP address for a Client.
387 - Implement maximum network buffer size directives.
388 - Good first cut at access control lists for the console.
389 - Optimize restore to select only latest Differential backup after
390 the Full, and then all following Incremental backups. Previously
391 everything after Full was selected.
393 - Organize kernstodo a bit (more to be done).
394 - Add client IP address to BSOCK structure.
395 - Use bit fields where appropriate in BSOCK structure.
396 - Pass UAContext to ua authenticate in Director, and make it
397 set the appropriate console (or NULL for none).
398 - Tweak restore "run" argument handling and add "files" keyword.
399 - Add device name or Volume name to some SD messages.
401 - First cut multiple consoles.
404 - Add quit command to restore tree handler.
405 - Make restore tree handler remember if a hard link is present, and
406 in doing a mark, only get database entry if there is a hard link.
407 mark commands thus run at least 2 orders of magnitude faster.
408 - Add files=xxx field to run command submitted for restore.
409 - Add yes to restore run command if either yes or run is command line
411 - Make "yes" on command line argument skip prompt for modification of
413 - Add markdir and unmarkdir -- both affect only the directory in
414 question and do not do a recursive descent.
415 - Make tree command automatically mark all higher level directories to
416 be restored when a directory or a file is selected. Such directories
417 are indicated by preceding the name with a + to indicate that only
418 the directory entry is selected and not the whole directory tree.
419 - Modify a few tree commands to walk through all arguments rather than
420 just taking the first one.
422 - Update copyright date on changed files.
423 - Make mark command in restore tree run *much* faster by accessing database only
424 if the file actually is hard linked -- determined at time tree it built by
425 keeping a has_link bit in the tree entry.
427 - Modify findlib/makepath.c to create all parent directories with full permissions.
428 This should solve the access problems on restoring files on Win32 systems.
429 - Modify restore to report **** Restore Error **** if any error are found.
430 I.e. a file could not be created.
431 - Change a few errors into warnings -- e.g. if permissions could not be set, but
432 the file is actually restored.
434 - Replace bsd_queue with dlist in lib/watchdog.c
435 - Add Date: header to bsmtp. Thanks to Meno Abels (abels) on SourceForge
437 - Remove ap==NULL check in src/lib/var.c as suggested by Christoph Barbian
438 because ap (va_list) is a struct on the Alpha, so the code does not
441 - Implement first cut of polling for a Volume. New Device directive
442 "Volume Poll Interval = xxx" where xxx is a time specification
443 (e.g. 5min). Default is off.
444 - Call pthread_cancel on SD msgchan only if the threadid is non-zero.
446 - Change RH autostart scripts to start in Dan's order.
448 2004-01-06 Version 1.33-06Jan04 Release
450 - Correct calculation of week of month in scheduler and in scheduled
453 - Fix cancel of job waiting on mount to be a bit cleaner.
455 - Fix seg fault -- don't close db in db_open_database(). It must explicitly
458 - Allow purge of a single JobId from a Volume (code untested)
459 - Implement fix to keep SD from looping complaining about the wrong volume
460 at the end of a tape -- reported by Phil, and fix confirmed by him. I cannot
461 seem to reproduce the bug here.
462 - Clean up a few more strcpy()s.
464 - Fix configure.in FD User print per Lars.
466 - New bacula.spec.in from Scott. Nice!
467 - Make RunAfterJob non-fatal if it errs since the Job has really
468 already completed the save.
469 - Replace sprintf with bsnprintf in message.c
471 - Note, this change affects only the Win32 FD.
472 - Fixed Win32 FD crash due to missing argument in status command. It
473 always crashed if there was a job that had previously run. Thanks to
474 Christopher Hull for finding and diagnosing this problem.
476 - Fix SELECT as indicated by Dan in sql_get.c for returning Volume names.
477 - Fix last_jobs list crash for utility programs (btape, ...).
478 - Correct editing of FileSet name into SQL command.
479 - Allow calling watchdog stop without initialization for utility programs.
480 - Enhance btape test by attempting to forward space past the end of the tape.
481 - Detect CAP_FASTFSF in btape test as possible reason for failure.
482 - Attempt to prevent infinite loops in fsf_dev() if device not properly
484 - Attempt to get correct file number on tape after backspacing at EOM. The
485 correction should resolve differences in OS tape driver implementations.
486 - Add ctl-c detection to bconsole. When reading from tty, interrupts any
487 output from Bacula, when reading from a file, it terminates the reading
488 and returns possibly exiting if it is a batch job.
489 - Create devel_bacula.in script and make it configure itself. Very similar
490 to the new bacula.in.
491 - Modify bacula.in to have separate file locations for each daemon -- makes
492 it easier to make a new devel_bacula.in when there are changes.
493 - Remove old config files when rebuilding configure to avoid error msgs.
494 - Fix btape "test" to respect TWO EOF.
495 - Fix fsf_dev() to use system notion of file if it is valid after bsf_dev().
496 - Move btraceback.gdb to scripts directory on installl.
497 - Add new mandrake bacula.spec.in
499 - Find commonset of c_iflags that work with FreeBSD tcsetattr on terminals.
500 - Remove comments from string concatenation -- doesn't work on FreeBSD
502 - Moderately improve bpipe_close() errors. Must rethink status return.
503 - Eliminate some Emsgs in favor of Jmsgs.
505 - Add optional Pool keyword on restore command line. If specified, the pool
506 used will be restricted to the specified pool.
507 - "Finish" implementation of JobDefs.
508 - Fix directory for chmod of cats scripts.
510 - Implement foreach_res() #define and start replacing old code.
511 - Work some more on jobdefs -- more to be done.
512 - Implement bstrftime_nc() bstrftime with no century.
513 - Fix static console problem in gnome2 and gnome directories reported by Alan
515 - Add code to test for valid Resource Names. Permitted characters are now
516 alpha, numeric, colon, period, minus, underscore, space.
517 - Turnoff some unused code in timers.c
518 - Start adding code to dev.c to prevent infinite loops if fast forward space
519 file (MTFSF) is configured on but not properly supported by OS.
521 - Sort FileSet selection list by CreateTime.
522 - Add "lsmark", and "estimate" to tree routines.
523 - Doing a mark or unmark now prints how many entries were changed.
524 - Add command argument parsing to btape.c
525 - Enhance EOT to print file:block on message.
526 - Add repeat counts on btape bsf, fsf, bsr, fsr, and weof commands.
527 - Enhance btape's fill command to be much clearer and more reliable.
528 - Add state file to btape so that unfill command can be done any time
529 after a fill command.
530 - Use reposition_dev() to position for read back of last block.
532 - Zap InChanger flag only if setting Slot to non-zero.
533 - Added new SD directive TwoEOF, default off, that tells Bacula whether
534 to write one or two EOFs for EOM. For the OnStream driver it must
535 be off, otherwise an empty file will be created.
536 - Cleaned up the btape "fill" command to compare the last block written
537 and read rather than just printing them.
539 - Implement btape test for autochanger.
540 - Implement btape test for Fast Forward Space File.
541 - Moved up to cygwin 1.5.5-1
542 - Implemented Fast Forward Space File
544 - Add support for selecting volumes from InChanger list first, then
545 selecting from all available volumes.
546 - Ensure that Volumes are selected from oldest LastWritten data/time.
547 - A couple of bug fixes ensuring the proper ordering of volumes.
549 - Return oldest LastWritten for find_next_volume.
550 - Remove ASSERT from stored/acquire.c that could trip when it shouldn't.
551 - Enhance SD status if debug_level > 1 to show details of dev status.
553 - Create update_bacula_tables, ... scripts and modify configure and Makefiles
554 - Eliminate is_num() and use is_an_integer().
555 - Add user slot selection code "slots=1,2-3,5,10, ..."

1077 - Added what I hope are the "final" touches for Win32 stuff. There
1078 are still a lot of annoying little problems.
1079 - Added the "portable=yes/no" option to Include. If set, it disables
1080 use of BackupRead/Write for Win32, so in principle, the data should
1082 - Pulled in more recent config.sub and config.guess from /usr/share/libtool
1083 - Replaced the system fgets() by a Bacula version that ignores
1084 interrupts (i.e. signals). This truncated output from child processes.
1085 - Make file_index int32_t everywhere.
1086 - Moved LinkFI into ATTR structure. Also integrated data_stream there too.
1087 - Moved code that sets the stream for writing into create_file.
1088 - Removed a signal(SIG_IGN, SIGCHLD) from dird.c that prevented getting
1089 the status of child processes. This allowed removing the FreeBSD
1090 kludge to bpipe.c -- the status is now obtained correctly.
1091 - Hand scan the stream header that arrives in append.c to avoid machine
1092 dependencies of sscanf().
1093 - Implemented code to put Data stream in Attributes record.
1094 - Check if data stream is supported, if not, ignore.
1095 - Fix crash when multiple Includes are given (missing parens).
1096 - Clear WroteVol in askdir.c when JobMedia record is created.
1097 - Implement simple array list class for use in Bacula. New files
1098 are lib/list.c lib/list.h. Probably will not use until version 1.32.
1100 2003-06-24 Version 1.31 Beta 22Jun03
1101 - Change Purging Oldest Volume message to Recycling Oldest Volume.
1102 - Limit results from find_oldest_volume to one.
1103 - Fix possible buffer overrun in the restore tree handling routines.
1104 - Fixed a crash in VerifyToVolume because I moved the close_db()
1105 down into the free_ua_context() and should not have done so.
1106 - At a "var" command in the Console that does variable expansion and
1108 - Implement first cut of estimate command.
1109 - Change find_next_volume() for oldest to use LastWritten instead of
1110 FirstWritten -- also add Append to volumes slected.
1111 - Do normal recycling before checking for RecycleOldestVolume.
1112 - Implemented block rejection on read. This should make restores run
1113 much faster. Next release will have block positioning -- even faster.
1114 - Very preliminary support for Gnome-2.0. Text does not yet work.
1115 - Correct buffer corruption in find_one.c with long directory names (Win32).
1116 - Make setting owner on directories M_ERROR rather than M_WARNING.
1117 - Fix printing of JobId in run listing for restore job.
1118 - Reduce heartbeat read check interval to every 10 seconds on Cygwin because
1119 there is no working pthread_kill().
1120 - I finally designed a test for multiple simultaneous jobs,
1121 and sure enough it broke when the jobs are split over multiple
1122 volumes. Now fixed and working!
1123 - Eliminated a few "duplicate" error messages by testing for canceled.
1124 - Add ASSERT for device use count going negative.
1125 - Fix BlockNumber checking in stored/read.c (got first one wrong).
1126 - If socket is timed out, do a shutdown(fd,2) instead of close().
1127 - Fixed return status from SD to FD by setting JobStatus in append_end()
1128 - Add arrays to Environment variables. Elements separated by |.
1129 - Implement Reschedule On Error, Reschedule Interval, Reschedule Times.
1130 - Add a new pool PM_NAME -- gets a name length buffer.
1131 - Implement fast cancel of FD blocked on writing to SD by using
1132 pthread_cancel(). Turned off on Cygwin due to bug.
1133 - Add code to handle EAGAIN in writing (probably not necessary). Use
1135 - Eliminate size_t from pool control buffers.
1136 - Complete Counter resource.
1137 - Complete LabelFormat (except for WrapCounter) plus counter
1139 - This needs a database change to eliminate PoolId from counters.
1140 - Made a more compact format for the document index.
1141 - Add Phil's checkhost to examples directory (thanks Phil).
1142 - Implement generalized LabelFormat (documentation to come).
1143 - Implement Counter resource.
1144 - Cleanup examples/kernsconfig
1145 - Implement restore to a specific date.
1146 - Fixed a but in automatic labeling (and use durations expiring) analysed
1147 and reported by Rob Proffitt (thanks!).
1148 - Cleaned up a few Cygwin compile problems.
1149 - Made a 10Jun03 release (it is in production here)
1150 - Finally took the big plunge and fixed restoration of links and other
1151 files that have been changed between the backup and restore. Basically
1152 if the file exists, it is deleted, then re-created.
1153 - Purge only Volumes marked Append, Full, Used, or Error.
1154 - Allow pruning of volumes marked Append, in addition to Full and Used.
1157 2003-06-10 Version 1.31 Beta 10Jun03
1158 - Eliminated all plain email addresses and replaced them with " at " in
1159 place of @ to reduce havesting by spammers. Doc + Web Site.
1160 - Started working on making POOLMEM a struct rather than a char. Lots of
1162 - Fixed bscan to handle -V option.
1163 - Fixed bscan to handle two File volumes.
1164 - Corrected a misplaced comma it get_fileset() in cats pointed out by bscan.
1165 - Added two Volume bscan test to regression scripts -- write two volumes,
1166 purge and delete everything, bscan the tapes, and do a restore. It works!
1167 - Reorganized the backup/restore code to move the attribute information into
1168 an ATTR packet, which is passed in place of tons of arguments. Moved some
1169 code into lib/attr.c and lib/attr.h. Then eliminated all the duplicate
1171 - Moved FT_ types into baconfig.h.
1172 - Defined FT_ types to use only 16 bits. The upper half of the word is
1173 reserved for adding optional fields in the attributes packet.
1174 - Moved jcr->where into common part of jcr and have it deleted in lib/jcr.c
1175 - Put all attribute reading code on switch() with cases instead of a big
1176 if (restore.c, bls.c, bextract.c, bscan.c, ...)
1177 - set_attributes() now takes ATTR packet, and thus has much fewer args.
1178 - moved print_ls_output() into lib/attr.c
1179 - implemented is_stream_supported().
1180 - create_file() now takes ATTR packet so has many fewer args.
1181 - add mtime_only code.
1182 - Rewrote bnet.c read and write routines to quit if bsock->terminated is
1183 set. This will allow setting non-blocking writes and then receiving
1184 a termination message and terminating the Job immediately rather than
1185 waiting 2 hours for the line to timeout.
1186 - Put catalog db name in some error messages.
1187 - Code for restore is now much cleaner, with much of it in lib/attr.c,
1188 and it is now common for all readers.
1189 - Add first cut of proper support for Win32 Backup code.
1190 - Fix bug in restore Win95/98/Me.
1191 - Pass mtime_only flag to FD. Needs config record.
1193 2003-06-04 Version 1.31 Beta 04Jun03
1194 - Fix block.c to check errno only in case of return status -1 as
1195 suggested by Justin Gibbs (FreeBSD).
1196 - Implemented qfill command in btape for quick testing write/read of a tape.
1197 - Discovered that FreeBSD pthreads re-use the same thread id, which causes
1198 the SD to fail when a user leaves a device unmounted (old pid is reused
1199 and lock_device() thinks the same thread is calling again leading to
1200 inconsistent state). Set id to zero after blocking the device during
1202 - A lot of clean up, moving subroutines around for TermCode.
1203 - Free ua->prompt when Job terminates.
1204 - Add AutoPrune and Recycle to values copied from Pool resource
1205 into Pool record on create/updated.
1206 - Implemented bsr for Verify VolumeToCatalog.
1207 - Improved the Verify Job report using SD and FD term codes.
1208 - Split tree handling routines from ua_restore.c to ua_tree.c
1209 - Split bsr routines from ua_restore.c to bsr.c and bsr.h
1210 - Fixed clash between FD and SD returned job values. Report now contains
1211 values from FD. Maybe I should change? or give both.
1212 - Attempt to fix negative use_count for dev packet in SD by adding
1213 a couple of open_dev(). This may be cause of Dan's crash.
1214 - Clear no_wait_id when device is unblocked. This may be cause of Dan's crash.
1215 - Eliminate old "new lock code".
1216 - Add configure of mtx-changer for mtx path.
1217 - Always rewind tape before releasing it (for FreeBSD).
1218 - StartBlock was one too large for second volume.
1219 - Fixed restore to display status from both SD and FD.
1220 - Unified return status message for backup and restore.
1221 - Corrected segmentation fault reported by Dan when doing "label barcodes"
1223 - Corrected a segmentation fault when attempting to send a JobMedia record
1224 to the Console -- reported by Dan.
1225 - Added MySQL documentation for using the threaded libraries.
1226 - Added new columns and tables to Catalog database.
1227 - Wrote alter scripts and tested them (thanks to Dan for the help) on
1229 - Started using enums where ever possible when passing flags to
1230 subroutines. This helps make the source much more readable.
1231 - Corrected a bug where a vertical database listing was being used in
1233 - Added new argument to parse_args() to prevent command arg overflow.
1234 - Renamed ua_db_query.c ua_query.c.
1235 - Split scan.c out of lib/util.c
1236 - Perhaps I have *finally* fixed the command line history in gnome-console.
1237 - Added support for smartalloc for any global new or delete command
1238 by overloading the global operators.
1239 - Made the default time with no qualifier day rather than seconds.
1240 - Fixed a bug in the store_size() routine that improperly converted from
1242 - Started using "bool" where possible.
1243 - Zap SD session key once it is used.
1244 - Added *lots* more checking for strcpy -- bstrncpy(), ...
1245 - Added CreateTime field to FileSet record and print it to distinguish
1247 - Print an information message when a new FileSet is created.
1248 - Include the FileSet date/time in the Job report.
1249 - Indicate if a Job is upgraded in the Job report and from what previous level.
1250 - Incremented the database version.
1251 - Ensure that any DB error message is printed if the start_time of a previous
1253 - Free orphaned buffer in ua_restore.c in case of database error.
1254 - Implement enum for response DISPLAY_ERROR and NO_DISPLAY
1255 - Implement enum for create_pool (POOL_OP_CREATE, POOL_OP_UPDATE).
1256 - Make sure FileSets printed in restore are in order.
1257 - Add a number of bstrncat, and other protected string operations.
1258 - Clean up old structs in dird_conf.h
1259 - Remove all Slot invalidation code.
1260 - Add Automatic choice message to all do_prompt() calls.
1261 - Eliminate JobId from restore if not used.
1262 - Clean up a few error messages.
1263 - Make fill/unfill commands work correctly in btape.
1264 - Enhance btape fill and unfill commands.
1265 - Implement real Pmsg() code so that negative levels work in Dmsg()
1266 - Implement block number check -- had to turn it off because it doesn't
1267 work. Need to verify that it is the correct block and that block
1268 numbers are properly written.
1269 - Moved readline from depkgs1 to depkgs.
1270 - Reworked the configure code to handle readline correctly. This was broken
1271 mostly due to the fact that the readline routines are nested down one
1272 directory. Also, I missed one header file that was needed (possibly added
1273 in a later version).
1274 - Put correct include on the dependencies make for Console readline.
1275 - Remove JobMediaId from VOL_PARAMS (no longer needed).
1276 - Sort VOL_PARAMS by JobMediaId using SQL in cats.
1277 - Add jcr as argument to block.c read_block... routines so that error
1278 messages are immediately displayed.
1279 - Make bsr_dev() edit an error message if it is turned off and return 0.
1280 - Add checking for the BlockNumber in the read routines -- lots of
1281 false matches are found -- much check writing end.
1282 - Now sort bsr volumes by JobMediaId -- produces better results.
1283 - It turns out that under certain circumstances, when doing a restore, the
1284 Volumes will not be written to the BSR in the correct order. I don't
1285 know exactly why, but many thanks to Dan Langille for reporting this.
1286 The solution is to sort the Vol_Params within each bsr (done), and to
1287 sort the bsr chain (not yet implemented). Note, the bsr chain should
1288 always be in order unless the user explicitly specifies the JobIds in
1290 - Began implementing C++ structs rather than typedef structs as in C.
1291 - Added volatile to a lot of variables that are used in two threads at
1292 the same time. This should prevent improper optimization.
1293 - Fixed a missing space in the "run job=xxx where=" the where was
1294 glued to the end of the previous stuff (bootstrap filename).
1295 - I *finally* found the cause of the mysterious failure of shell expansion.
1296 It was due to the read() getting interrupted! That's what opening up
1298 - Remove unused default tape drive names.
1299 - Create a new status.c file in stored and split the status code out of dircmd.c
1301 2003-05-22 Version 1.31 Beta 22May03
1302 - I discovered that C++ permits "prototyping" structures e.g. struct A; is
1303 a valid statement. This permitted me to eliminate all the void *jcr, in
1304 favor of JCR *jcr, which pointed out a number of bugs in block.c.
1305 - Change lib/bmisc.c to bsys.c (system routines).
1306 - Add set_working_directory() to lib/util.c
1307 - Remove some unneeded setjcr_job_status() since Jmsg(jcr, M_FATAL,...)
1309 - Do not increment jcr->Errors for Fatal errors -- they represent non-fatal
1311 - Fix a few more places in FD where Errors was not incremented.
1312 - Print unexpected (or incorrect) termination message returned from FD.
1313 - Use switch() instead of giant if statement in verify_vol.c
1314 - Protect overrun from do_shell_expansion() by passing max length.
1316 2003-05-20 Version 1.31 Beta 20May03
1317 - Add mandrake to platforms
1318 - Suppress error messages if no bytes written to tape.
1319 - Suck up bootstrap file even on error so that Dir sees our error message.
1320 - Pretty much finish off the Win32 backup code.
1321 - Add DESTDIR code to autostart for creating non-root rpms
1322 - Echo input read from a script in Console.
1323 - Clarify error message for VerifyToCatalog
1324 - Add error counts in restore for M_NOTSAVED.
1325 - Adapt bfile.c to handle both Win95 files as well as WinXP files.
1326 - Add MTIOCERRSTAT for FreeBSD (clear error status).
1327 - Correct double jobmedia record when cancel at EOM reported by Phil.
1328 - Correct possible write at beginning of tape during cancel at EOM
1329 as reported by Phil.
1330 - Document in detail how Incremental and Differential jobs work.
1331 - Add non-fatal error count on backup and restore Job reports.
1332 - Remove a couple uses of lld -- now prefer to edit and use %s.
1333 - Fix directory could not be accessed on Win32.
1334 - Improve message indicating that last Full backup not found.
1335 - Fix free() too early in directory traversal code.
1336 - Prune Jobs with no JobFiles or that have JobStatus!='T'
1337 - Add a few more command line scans for prune/purge.
1338 - Restrict valid characters in a Volume name, and document it.
1339 - Make new Win32 save/restore work. Still a bit more to do.
1340 - Use reentrant version of mysqlclient library.
1341 - Use more machine independent way of finding gcc version.
1342 - Fix race condition in sql_list where messages edited before locking.
1343 - Lots of testing saving/restoring 6GB files.
1344 - Add where to restore where=/tmp
1345 - Complete implementation of Win32 streams in FD. Must test. Also,
1346 must implement new streams in SD.
1347 - Make termination of daemons more "error" tolerant.
1348 - Make default "duration" days rather than seconds if there is no modifier.
1350 - Add detection of available Win API's so that a single binary will
1351 work on all Windows systems. Reference those APIs through a pointer.
1352 - Remove use_win_backup_api and enable it in bfile.c if system supports it.
1353 - Modify dev.c so that it works if MTEOM is not defined (BSDI).
1354 - Change MT_xxx to BMT_xxx to prevent conflicts with BSDI.
1355 - Detect strtoll() in configure.
1356 - Implement replacement for strtoll() for BSDI.
1357 - Add platform files for BSDI.
1358 - Use Jmsg() instead of Jmsg1() in acquire because File:line prefixed in dev.c
1359 - Use Jmsg() in write_block_to_dev() so that no messages are lost.
1360 - Rework autochanger code in restore to handle case of cassette not in magazine.
1361 - Implement Windows BackupRead/Write(). I now have permissions right!!!!
1362 - Additions to the manual (Purging, Autopruning).
1363 - Add doc to code in autoprune.
1364 - Begin adding Level = Base.
1365 - Make Jmsg recognize console and direct messages directly back to it.
1366 - Hopefully fix mess in mount.c when a tape expires.
1367 - Fix restore bug recently introduced due to Unix backwards status convention.
1368 - New bacula.spec from Scott
1369 - Add globals for database name and version and print them in traceback.
1370 - Eliminate SubSysDirectory in each daemon conf file.
1371 - Implement get_yesno() and get_pint() in UA.
1372 - Make Jmsg aware of console. Messages now sent directly to Console.
1373 - Created a single bacula.spec.in for by the MySQL and SQLite builds.
1374 - Added proper configuration to console.in and gconsole.in
1375 - Start adding textdomain() code for translating.
1376 - A number of minor code cleanups.
1377 - Rework shell expansion just a bit.
1378 - Add rewind() when releasing a tape before acquiring the next one.
1379 - Implement addition of Description in Service entry for Win32.
1380 - Update manual to eliminate unclear autochanger points as mentioned
1382 - Implement DESTDIR everywhere.
1383 - Rework spec files for 1.31 and combine the main spec and the client
1384 only spec making a client package. At the same time, rename the packages
1385 so it is a bit clearer to the user. Also fix the build to work
1386 as non-root (scriptdir was not prefixed with $RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
1387 - Correct Auto Changers and all other forms to Autochangers in the
1389 - John reported needing to do two "mount" requests, and indeed that
1390 was the case. It turns out that pthread_cond_timedwait() does not
1391 always return zero when awaken by a pthread_cond_signal().
1392 - Include RunBeforeJob and RunAfterJob output in job output report.
1393 - Implement a "real" Admin job that prints a mini-job report.
1394 - Clean up a few error messages in findlib and filed.
1395 - Recent changes to gnome-console caused initial output to be
1397 - The Win32 version crashed after each job. After hours, it turns out
1398 that when running with LocalSystem privilege (and not as a user), when
1399 Cygwin does pthread_kill(id, SIGUSR2), it gets a memory fault.
1400 - Moved stored/fdmsg.c to lib/bget_msg.c, and moved SD messages to
1401 stored.c. So now bget_msg() can be used by both the SD and FD.
1402 - Changed Director's bget_msg() to be called bget_dirmsg() to avoid
1403 any possible confusion.
1404 - Implemented bget_msg() in general everywhere in the FD except for
1405 job.c where the Dir and FD are communicating.
1406 - Implemented a Director only heartbeat in the FD for the cases where
1407 there is either no connection to the SD or the FD is already reading
1408 from the SD. start_dir_heartbeat() ...
1409 - Add heartbeat to restore and verify volume.
1410 - Add "Heartbeat Interval" to Storage resource, which sets interval the
1411 SD sends heartbeats to the FD and DIR, 0 disables heartbeats.
1412 - Add "Heartbeat Interval" to FileDaemon resource, which sets the interval
1413 the FD sends heartbeats to the DIR, 0 disables heartbeats.
1414 - Added heartbeat from FD to Dir every HB_TIME rather than forwarding
1416 - First cut label dialog.
1417 - Turn on new semaphore code for simultaneous Jobs.
1418 - Fix cancel trying to release semaphore's not acquired.
1419 - Implement get_pint() and get_yesno() for UA.
1420 - Implement find_arg_with_value() for UA.
1421 - All command line "slot" to be specified for label command.
1422 - Rework heartbeat code in FD to correctly terminate.
1423 - Fix btraceback to use smtp and to eliminate double //
1424 - Fix "storage" command to include ssl for verify and restores.
1425 - Add Heartbeat code when SD is waiting on a tape -- heartbeat every 20 mins
1426 to keep stateful firewalls from timing out the connections.
1427 - Fix src/stored/Makefile.in typo causing problems in statically linking
1428 btape. Thanks to Lutz for reporting this.
1429 - Create an is_client_alive script for checking if a client is alive.
1430 Using this script prevents generating error messages.
1431 - Added corrections and updates to manual provided by Phil -- thanks.
1432 - Added RequireSSL to each program/daemon configuration.
1433 - Added EnableSSL to each correspondent for each program.
1434 - Added the Console resource to the Director (need to
1435 implement individual Console authorization).
1437 2003-04-28 Version 1.30 released
1438 - Fix command history for gnome-console (must malloc).
1439 - Add two cancel points in acquire_resources(). The job will not
1440 be immediately terminated in all cases.
1441 - The new AutoMount code broke File archives -- fixed.
1442 - Correct watchdog mutex race introduced yesterday.
1443 - Add JobLevel to Admin run started by UA.
1444 - Add -v to daemon startup scripts
1445 - Implement bmicrosleep(sec, msec);
1446 - Implement When for "run" command.
1447 - Remove unsigned from socklen_t definition in hopes it will work better
1449 - Remove code that attempts to set PID dir and SUBSYS dir if they
1450 do not exist because it set them to sbindir!
1451 - Modify mount to initially attempt to read the volume if Bacula
1452 wants a tape, none is mounted, and "Automatic Mount = yes" is set.
1453 - Prohibit setting --sbindir and --with-subsys-dir the same.
1454 - Fix missing argument that cause Kaboom in update slots.
1455 - Fix orphaned bsock when UA gets error contacting FD or SD
1456 - Nearly full implementation of Win Backup API, but it does not
1457 work due to lack of permission! Arggg!
1458 - Implemented restoring directory permissions as they should be.
1459 - Implemented reasonable regression script. It found a number of
1461 - Implemented the following @ commands in the console that work directly
1462 in the console rather than in the Director.
1463 input - read input from a file
1464 output - write output to file
1465 tee - tee output to file and terminal
1466 time - print current time
1467 version - print current version
1470 - Implemented new bfile io routines that will permit implementation of
1471 Windows native APIs for reading/writing files.
1472 - By default always update hard links with the prefix, but do
1473 not update soft links. It seems inconsistent, but it is what
1475 - Implement wait command in Console that waits until no jobs are running.
1476 - Fixed the < code in Include/Excludes, which forgot to skip over the <.
1477 - Do NOT attempt to chmod() a soft link as it will change the file behind
1479 - OOPS! Lutz ran into a problem. In attempting to prevent string overflows,
1480 I used bstrncpy() on a variable that was malloc'ed thus truncating
1481 Volume names! Arrrggggg!
1482 - Lots of documentation of new features.
1483 - Rework Volume name scanning in console, made much more logical
1484 and corrected a bug (confusion in calling sequence).
1485 - Cleaned up a few error messages in cats adding more info.
1486 - Add the IP address to error messages due to bad connects to servers.
1487 - Implement default File output in config files so user can start
1488 saving right away without a tape drive.
1489 - Protect inet_ntoa() with mutex in case it is not thread safe.
1490 - Eliminate termcap from use in gnome console.
1491 - Remove unused SD maximum volume files and maximum volume jobs. They
1492 are implemented in the Director.
1493 - Make the default for Incremental and Differential saves to compare
1494 against both st_mtime and st_ctime rather than just st_mtime.
1495 This includes files moved or copied.
1496 Thanks to Matthias Wamser for bringing this fix to our attention.
1497 - On Win32 clients, make a pass through the include/exclude patterns
1498 and change any back slashes to foward slashes. Prevents creating
1499 unusable directory names containing both conventions.
1500 - Move ls -l output on restored files to M_RESTORED class.
1501 - Make gnome-console compile correctly on RH8.0
1502 - label barcodes now works.
1503 - Implemented "update slots".
1504 - Tweak btape "test" to always print suggestion for re-read last block.
1505 - Implemented "Cleaning Prefix"
1506 - Update alter_mysql_tables.in
1507 - More work on barcodes.
1508 - Zap VolHdr in SD when attempting to label a tape that is not
1509 there. Prevents false tape names the next label command.
1510 - First cut of bar code reading is implemented. It doesn't do
1511 anything but return the list to the Director.
1512 - Implemented relabel command that relabels "Purged" Volumes.
1513 - Check exit code in RunBeforeJob and err the job if it is non-zero.
1514 - Remove old testsuite -- too complicated
1515 - Print length when Authorization fails because of bad length.
1516 - Fix problem of NumVols in Pool getting reset on startup.
1517 - Implement full listing of DB records by listing them vertically
1518 instead of horizontally.
1519 - Make changes to mysql scripts as suggested by Lutz Kittler
1520 - Fixed code to write Uname to Client record.
1521 - Fixed a problem (in btape) where Pmsg() was not printing.
1522 - Moved re-read last block test to last in "test" command of btape.
1523 - Lots of new documentation.
1524 - Fixed newvol.c to handle retrying 10 times if the volume name already exists.
1525 - Removed int_least16_t from sha1.h because it does not exist on some systems.
1526 - Release job in SD if canceled and waiting on a mount (better cancellation).
1527 - Prompt for Client in restore if not specified.
1528 - Print "Selection is empty!" if no selection list found.
1529 - Add new spec files and bacula.desktop from Scott.
1530 - Update client every time a job is run.
1531 - Add verbose option to daemons for printing more user error info.
1532 - Test if console works with readline 4.3 (yes, it is OK).
1533 - Release new depkgs
1534 - Release new winbacula.
1535 - Add Uname info to Client DB record.
1536 - Improve error messages and make them more consistent when a non-existent
1537 Device is requested.
1538 - Separated the -mwindows option so that only Windows programs
1539 are built with it (bacula-fd, ...) the tty tools such as console
1540 dbcheck, smtp, testfind, ... are now able to be run in a standard
1542 - Add | and < options to Exclude the same as in Include.
1543 - Add typed in input to the text window in the gnome-console.
1544 - Change function that gets the entry text (previously had orphaned buffer).
1545 - Fix multiple Director problem in gnome-console (thanks to Lutz Kittler).
1546 - Thanks to Renato, I was able to test Bacula on a FreeBSD tape drive.
1547 There are a number of significant differences: 1. reading less than
1548 the number of bytes in a record returns an I/O error. 2. ioctl(MTEOM)
1549 looses the file position. 3. Reading two two EOF marks (or ioctl(MTEOM))
1550 leave you positioned after the second EOF, so you must backspace file
1551 to be able to append.
1552 - Added BSF at EOM = yes/no to Device resource to allow proper positioning
1553 at the end of a FreeBSD tape.
1554 - Made btape "test" do much better testing of error conditions (i.e.
1555 it now ensures that the append went well). It will automatically
1556 detect problems and apply fixes and then retry the test, if it
1557 finally succeeds, it clearly says what directives need changing.
1558 - Add Scott Barninger's rpm changes to the build environment
1559 - Add changes to mtx-changer so users can add eject and sleep for
1560 certain autochangers.
1561 - Implemented FreeBSD chflags (user defined flags).
1562 - Turn restore errors during setting of owner and modes into
1563 warning messages -- for restoring files as non-root.
1564 - Fix how prefixes are handled in restoring soft links.
1565 - Modified btape "test" command to do only those things that
1566 Bacula actually does. There is much more explanation, ...
1568 - Finally had to back up to gcc version 2 from version 3 to avoid version
1570 - Final cygwin tweaks.
1571 - Move start time to *after* the resource locks are acquired.
1572 - Unable to duplicate Phil's disabling of Bacula with nmap, but
1573 did make the authentication code a bit more conservative for
1574 dealing with bad input.
1575 - Added code to the query command to escape all strings input
1576 before substitution and sending to the SQL engine.
1577 - Escape user entered filenames for restore command.
1578 - Cleaned up the waiting code a bit -- using broadcast instead
1579 of signal and counting the waiters.
1580 - Implement new pthreads semaphore code.
1581 - #define new semaphore code rather than workq on USE_SEMAPHORE.
1582 - Lots of improvements to the document to address recent support requests.
1583 - Implement cycle through a set of tapes suggested by Eugeny
1584 Fisher with the "RecycleOldestVolume=yes" record in the
1585 Pool resource. Basically this record causes Bacula to purge
1586 to oldest tape when no more tapes are found.
1587 - Correct a number of small incorrect interactions between limit
1588 variables during recycling.
1589 - Corrected a bug in db_create_media_record() where VolMaxFiles and
1590 VolMaxJobs was not written to the database.
1591 - When the Director starts, the Pool record is updated in the
1592 database with the current contents of the Pool resource.
1593 - Corrected bnet_connect() to immediately stop (rather than looping
1594 for the timeout period) if there is a fatal error (socket, or
1596 - Reworked "purge" code to make purging Volumes easier.
1597 - Made "list volumes" list the volumes in all pools -- also
1598 "list volumes pool=Default" does not produce and error message.
1599 - List Pool record after doing "update pool".
1600 - Remove pid file code from Win32 -- not really necessary.
1601 - Make bnet handle null jcr during cancel rather than crash.
1602 - Add CygwinInstall.bat and CygwinUnInstall.bat
1603 - Add db_lock() around newvol.c code to prevent race condition if multiple
1604 callers want a new Volume name.
1605 - Lots of cleanup to Win32 code, with additional error messages.
1606 - Make Bacula work on Win95 (test for GetAttributesEx).
1607 - Add better error messages when end of media is reached or volume
1609 - Turned off signal catching in readline(), necessary to keep console
1610 from crashing on ctl-Z with RedHat 8.0. Thanks to David Craigon for
1612 - Make the 3rd and hopefully final change to the Finclude structures.
1613 This new version permits multiple sets of options (more code to be
1614 written) to be applied against the same set of files. Thus one can
1615 have options that with match of *.gz and a different set of options
1617 - Integrated GNOME Console font resource code supplied by Phil Stracchino.
1618 - Check for job_cancelled() in bnet_connect() code to stop wait loop if
1619 client not available.
1620 - Fix early end of file scanning conf file in lex.c, which previously
1621 caused ABORT -- now reports error. This could happen with an unterminated
1623 - Move Maximum File Size code before write and detect error on writing EOF.
1624 - Additional fix for Solaris 2.6 and a bdb.c fix submitted by Armin Buehler.
1625 - Added detection for Solaris 2.6, which uses older setsockopt() calls.
1626 - Defined sockopt_val_t for setsockopt() calls.
1627 - Added fixes sent by Bevan Anderson that fix multiple connects to FD
1628 (I zap keys for security, so must put back dummy key). Also a fix
1629 to the Internal database that wrote garbage after the filename in
1631 - Back out the __SVR4 changes.
1632 - Add automatic configuration of socklen_t
1633 - Attempt to fix problems reported by Lutz with multiple simultaneous
1634 open file Volumes (experimental code). Serialized acquire. This may
1635 fix the problem, but more thought and testing is necessary.
1636 - Add table of "supported" autochanger models.
1637 - Add Solaris 2.6 (__SRV4) changes sent by Peter Schmitz.
1638 - Correct tape selection code in SD (|| => &&). Thanks to Chuck Hemker
1640 - Eliminate FileOptions. Implement new Finclude and Fexclude that
1641 have file options contained in it. New structure must be transmitted
1643 - Split Include/Exclude into new inc_conf.c file.
1644 - Cleanup new Include/Exclude and FileOptions. Structures in Director
1645 now correct. Must transmit FileOptions to FD.
1646 - WARNING: With the adddress and port code in the Catalog you MUST
1647 remove old address= and dport= records!!!!!
1648 - Added code to remove cancelled jobs from the workq -- needs testing.
1649 - Added first cut AIX from output James MacLean sent me.
1650 - Second cut of FileOptions.
1651 - First cut of parsing FileOptions and Counters.
1652 - Added address:port for MySQL as well as socket for local access.
1653 - Fixed job.c in filed to properly handle excluded files. Apparently
1654 I changed the daemon protocol but forgot to update the code.
1655 - Enhance testfind to handle include and exclude files
1656 - Fix getdomainname() prototype for Darwin
1657 - Added new -u and -g options for specifying userid and groupid to
1658 use when running, so that Bacula can reduce its privileges.
1659 - When Bacula was hanging due to an NFS volume being down, I
1660 fixed a few places in the File daemon where is should have immediately
1661 terminated the connection instead of waiting for the Director to do so.
1662 - Added first cut support for Darwin.
1663 - Temporarily comment out the O_NOFOLLOW to avoid possible subtle problems.
1664 - Implemented O_NOFOLLOW in creating files in create_file.c to prevent
1665 creating a file at the end of a symbolic link.
1666 - Use chown() if lchown() does not exist (e.g. Darwin).
1667 - Always close stdin on startup to avoid having /dev/console attached.
1668 - Change all DATE occurrences to BDATE because it is used by Cygwin headers.
1669 - Add printing of Volume names in SD status output.
1670 - Display all open devices in device chain in SD status output.
1671 - All changing Pool in console run command.
1672 - Thanks to Eric Bollengier for pointing out that the run_program()
1673 return status was not correctly generated. Now fixed (I hope).
1674 - Corrected crash in Internal Database getting Volumes.
1675 - Flush all daemon messages at the end of every job.
1676 - Fix Install.bat script so that Bacula restarts after reboot on WinNT/2K systems.
1677 - Minor changes in the gnome-console directory.
1678 - Integrated in my old Tcl/Tk code into src/tconsole and moved it up
1679 from C to C++. Pretty crude, but it is a beginning.
1680 - Close syslog() %n exploit in message.c
1681 - Edit space before each line in gconsole.
1682 - Added INCEXE structure so we can have FileOptions.
1683 - Added support for multiple simultaneous open file volumes.
1684 - Fix hard linked files so that the one saved is always restored.
1685 - Add * to restore "dir" listing to indicate marked files.
1686 - Add ability to make md5sum and sha1sum in lib directory.
1687 - Work a bit more on the new daemon protocol.
1688 - Use unmask of 022 or more restive
1689 - Create File volumes with 0640 permissions
1690 - Added support for SHA1 signature. Need to modify DB to have type.
1692 - Work a bit on getting proper child status from bpipe calls.
1693 - Added Ludwig's mtx-changer to the examples/devices directory.
1694 - Added a Warning not to use the Internal Database when it is initialized.
1695 - Compiled and tested SHA1, and added it to the library.
1696 - Added code to print the "load slot" status after autoloading.
1698 =============================================================================
1699 2003-01-24 Version 1.29 released
1701 - Tightened up permissions on all .conf files to be 640 so they are not
1704 - Added prefixlinks=yes/no Job record to specify applying the Where
1705 prefix to absolute soft links. Code is not yet passed to FD, because
1706 FD would then be incompatible with version 1.28.
1707 - Added skeleton of installation for Gentoo release for Patrick Naubert.
1708 - Add timer on open() for reading or writing a FIFO file.
1709 - Put btraceback and btraceback.gdb in sysbin dir (a bit of polution,
1710 but at least dumps will work).
1712 - Added "append" all messages to a log to default bacula-dir.conf
1713 - Added WriteBootstrap to default bacula-dir.conf
1714 - Made smartall.c print "Out of memory" if malloc() fails.
1715 - Added pthread btimer routines.
1716 - Added timer to FIFO open statement
1717 - George was still having problems with VolUseDuration failing.
1718 On looking into it, one line of code subtracting 1900 was
1719 mysteriously missing from the source -- bizarre.
1721 - Yesterday's version corrects all the problems I was
1722 previously having, and my production jobs are now completing
1724 - Added a #define dev_cap() to test the capabilities bits. I just
1725 makes the code a bit shorter and a bit simpler.
1726 - Added phase 1 support for an output fifo device. The big
1727 difference here is that it is a STREAM device, which means that
1728 Bacula will only write to it and not read. Thus, Bacula assumes
1729 that the correct "Volume" is mounted and will construct a valid
1730 label (without needing the Volume to be prelabeled), and write
1732 - Added phase 1 support for input from fifo device (suppress re-read,
1733 add empty buffer flag).
1735 - Improve printout of dbcheck with # files/path fixing.
1736 - Zap SD authorization code after use.
1737 - Added <> back to smtp (think about this some)
1740 - Massive change to add jcr as the first argument to nearly
1741 every db_ call. This is because I was storing the jcr in the
1742 db structure, which will not work because everyone shares
1743 exactly the same structure.
1744 - More cleanups of error termination status in filed.
1745 - Found another bug in message.c where %s was missing in JmsgN. A lot
1746 of cleanup in message.c
1747 - Found places where filename listing was made (restore, verify
1748 vol) where the buffer could possibly overrun.
1749 - Chain include files on the end of the list so that the
1750 order will be correct.
1751 - Rewrote mtx-changer to output one slot per line terminated by
1752 a colon followed by an optional Volume Tag for the "list" command.
1753 Preparation for handling Volume Tags.
1754 - My production crash remains elusive. Adding debug code or running
1755 under the debugger eliminates the problem. I found a case in
1756 message.c where I was extending the message string by two
1757 characters to send it to the console. VERY BAD. Rewritten.
1758 - Started implementing fifo and program handlers (i.e. streams)
1759 in the Storage daemon. Lots to do.
1760 - Added a trace capability where trace statements are written
1761 to a file. Tmsg(). Hopefully this won't be used much.
1762 - Running lots of "production" saved by scheduling a few minutes
1763 after the current time -- slow process ...
1765 - Removed <> on From and To in smtp.c as suggested by James MacLean.
1766 - Added code to suppress spurious error messages during cancel,
1767 but I was unable to eliminate all errors -- to be worked
1769 - Up size of print buffer from 2000 to 5000.
1770 - My production run failed again. I'm beginnig to suspect
1771 hardware problems because running by hand or under the
1772 debugger always works -- we will see.
1773 - Added Update Volume VolFiles to reset correct tape files
1775 - Use the mysql_escape_string() rather than internal version.
1777 - Cleanup handling of JobStatus by creating a subroutine.
1778 - Fix a number of minor things with JobStatus.
1779 - Print FD and SD JobStatus on backup report.
1780 - Add JCR to findlib -- so now FD stops normally when cancelled.
1781 - My production Director segment faulted during the second Job.
1782 I haven't been able to track it down. After rebuilding, all
1783 jobs finished correctly.
1784 - In investigating the duplicated Paths, I found that there
1785 were 10,552 of them -- only Path records. After checking the
1786 code, I do not see the reason, but I've enhanced the code to
1787 print the full path name.
1788 - I made a few improvements to tools/dbcheck. Mostly it provides
1789 a bit more feedback with verbose mode on when eliminating
1790 duplicate filenames or paths.
1792 - During four simultaneous backups, the File daemon started
1793 detecting buffer corruptions. It turns out to be due to the
1794 fact that the smartall.c routines were not thread safe. They
1796 - Based on input from James MacLean and team, I eliminated a number
1797 of places where printf could be recursively called by using "%s".
1798 - It turns out that because of an error of my understanding of
1799 mysql_escape_string(), the last argument was taken as the length
1800 of the string to be escaped rather than the maximum length. I've
1801 now corrected all my code -- Thanks James.
1803 - George Motter reported problems with UseDurations, and it seems
1804 that there were a number of inconsistencies and problems with
1805 FirstWritten and LastWritten. Hopefully for the most part they
1806 are now corrected. Also fixed LabelDate if done through Console.
1807 - Try to chase down reasons why there would be buffer overruns.
1808 Added P & V around referencing last_fname for status.
1809 Rewrote find_one.c with MEMPOOL, but not yet tested enough
1812 - Give extra margin to converting filenames from Unix to Windows
1813 in attribs.c of findlib -- dumb cygwin API doesn't provide for
1815 - Added file:line traceback to size_of_pool_memory, check... and
1816 realloc in an attept to get closer to the memory overrun reported
1819 - Made yet another fix to quoted string -- paths! Thanks to
1820 Scott Medlock for reporting this.
1821 - Made | and < work.
1822 - Implemented FIFO reading/writing. To do so, simply explicitly mention
1823 the fifo file (named pipe) in the Include AND add the new option
1826 - Started implementing | and < on Include names.
1827 - Changed source to . in cats directory as requested by Andrew Kokarev.
1829 =============================================================================
1830 2003-01-05 Version 1.28b released
1831 - Corrected a typo of working_directory in bacula-dir.conf
1832 reported by James MacLean.
1833 - Fixed the fact that path and filenames in some cases were not
1834 being quoted before going into the database. Many thanks to
1835 James MacLean for reporting this.
1837 =============================================================================
1838 2003-01-05 Version 1.28a released
1839 - Corrected a missing quote in bacula-dir.conf reported by James MacLean
1841 =============================================================================
1842 2003-01-05 Version 1.28 released
1844 - Implemented Bare Metal Recovery for Linux and manual procedures for Solaris
1845 - Now using only a single technotes file kes-1.28 and will add to
1846 it as the development goes on.
1847 - Wrote a general purpose bi-directional pipe command. This replaces
1848 previous use of pipes as well as the run_program previously used.
1849 - Make BSRs stop if no more matches are possible.
1850 - Allow unliminted number of devices in Storage daemon.
1851 - Allow connections to Storage daemon before all devices are initialized.
1852 - Better documentation (and btape test command) on using fixed block
1855 Changes submitted this submission:
1857 - Add cygreadline5.dll to Win32 release -- needed for console
1859 - Add scripts make_catalog_backup and delete_catalog_backup that makes and
1860 deletes an ASCII copy of the catalog for backup. An example of how
1861 to use it is in the <bacula-src/src/dird/bacula-dir.conf file.
1862 - Made a nicer column oriented listing of scheduled jobs for "status dir".
1864 - Added backup/restore of raw partitions.
1865 - Corrected restoration of files in root directory (problem with
1866 splitting path from file).
1868 - Finally decided to cleanup handling of splitting path and filenames
1869 in the cats directory. Now the code is in one place sql.c and it
1870 is done using Pool memory, so there are no length restrictions.
1872 - Add start of Solaris bare metal recovery
1873 - Add Site Visit usage statistics to Web page
1874 - Got Bacula listed on www.backupcentral.com
1876 - Retest bare metal recovery on Linux 2 times with verify
1877 - Cleanup printout of verify differences using proper casting to
1878 handle shorts and long longs.
1880 - Added --enable-client-only to ./configure
1881 - Modified --enable-static-sd to work better and documented it.
1882 - Fixed Restore options (never,ifnewer, ...). They now work.
1883 - Moved the stored.c Resource lock into the allocation thread so
1884 that the same thread sets/clears it. This created a problem on
1887 - Added more rescue documentation.
1888 - Did a spell check of the Bacula doc.
1889 - Modified bscan to use the working directory as specified in the
1890 configuration file as the default.
1892 - Fixed an important bug reported by George Motter that caused only
1893 the last option on an Include record to be used (all previous options
1896 - Chase down some inconsistencies in creating Media records from
1897 the Pool defaults, and in updating/creating the Pool from the
1898 resource. Also fixed the cats DB routines to include all
1899 fileds (VolUseDuration was missing for example).
1901 - Added building static versions of daemon static-bacula-dir, ...
1902 - Fine tuned the rescue (bare metal) code including support for grub.
1903 - Added skeleton freebsd rescue
1904 - Corrected SQL syntax error in autoprune code (JobType => Type).
1905 - Added error messages for SQL errors in autopruning.
1907 - Documented Bare Metal Recovery
1908 - Create new "rescue" directory containg the Bare Metal Recovery code.
1909 - Fiddle with SQL a bit for pruning as apparently the last InitCatalog
1910 was pruned after the expiration date eventhough it was the ONLY copy!
1911 I'm not sure this is fixed yet.
1913 - Allow Director to pass a NUL where string to FD (fix in FD).
1914 - Fix installation mv of query.sql.
1915 - Make sure btraceback.gdb is not wiped on "make distclean"
1916 - Corrected a bug in mod of replace options pointed out by Dave Anderson.
1918 - Started adding FileOptions ...
1919 - Fixed and incorrect print out of the number of files restored (Jarif).
1920 - Finally fixed EndBlock (and file address for Files) in catalog!
1921 - Added hostname to tape header as always planned.
1922 - Removed Level code (will not implement unless strong demand exists).
1923 - Tweaked bscan to print number of errors ignored before first SOS.
1924 - Enhanced btape "fill" to permit using one tape and to dump last
1925 block before writing and upon read back.
1926 - Make fsf_dev() return 0 on fail and 1 on success.
1927 - Use new db_get_job_volume_parameters() to enhance Write Bootstrap to
1928 contain more info (start/end file/block, file indexes).
1929 - Added --enable-static-fd, sd, and dir to configuration to enable making
1930 static versions of the daemons.
1932 - The btape test program was indicating errors on Adrian's machine
1933 using the ATAPI (ide-scsi) tape drive. It turns out that this
1934 is a fixed block driver as a consequence, Bacula must be setup
1935 to write fixed blocks. btape was not always using the fixed
1936 blocks defined in the Bacula config, so that has been updated.
1937 It now works fine. A lot of tips added to the Bacula test command
1938 to help guide the user.
1939 - Documentation of the above significantly improved in the manual.
1941 - Added code in watchdog to permit setting and clearing child timers. If
1942 the timer expires, the child process is killed.
1943 - Modified restore to handle differential jobs.
1944 - Added a new test to the btape "test" command
1946 - More documentation of new features (week position in scheduler, bsr).
1947 - Re-read last block written on full tape to verify it.
1948 - Fix segmentation fault with btape fill command due to missing FileSet MD5.
1950 - Created better SQL input editing routines str_to_int64 and str_to_uint64()
1951 - Pull Client from database in Console restore command.
1952 - Create a Unique list of Volumes to be mounted (previously had repeats).
1953 - Made many of the SQL searches better by using the ClientId rather than the name
1954 in the restore Console command.
1955 - Modified reading of a tape to include the VolFile info. Once the
1956 tape is past the specified file, reading stops. The BSR now includes
1957 both the VolFile and VolBlock. Currently VolBlock is not used.
1958 - Handle multiple volumes better by creating a real volume list with all
1960 - Display "At prompt waiting for input" in gnome console when at subcommand
1962 - Broke ascii to internal and internal to string editing routines out into
1963 new lib/edit.c file.
1965 - Added a readme and an afs-bacula script to the examples directory
1966 that permits Bacula to backup an AFS filesystem. Thanks to
1967 Lucas Mingarro for the submission.
1968 - Added A Sun-desktop autoloader script and Device definition to the
1969 examples/devices subdirectory. Thanks to Lucas Mingarro for the
1971 - If the WriteBootStrap fails, the job will now be marked in error.
1972 - Added a week position to the scheduler syntax that allows you to
1973 specify 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or 4th, or first, ... fifth as a week
1974 position specification in front of a day. So if you say
1978 the scheduler will start only on the first sunday of the month. The
1979 day specification can also be a day range e.g. sun-fri.
1980 This code is untested.
1981 - Implemented bpipe.h and bpipe.c in src/lib, which defines a bi-directional
1982 pipe. This allows executing other programs and sending them information
1983 as well as getting info from them.
1984 - Replaced the previous pipe usage with bpipes in RunBeforeJob and
1986 - The mail program now uses bpipes rather than pipes, which means that any
1987 error output will appear in the job output (truly bi-directional).
1988 - Modified BSR to handle counts and to stop when no more matches are possible.
1990 - Improved error messages in smtp.
1992 =============================================================================
1993 2002-12-12 Version 1.27d
1994 - This is a minor update that fixes a segmentation fault in btape
1995 as well as reduces non-important error messages in bscan.
1997 2002-11-29 Version 1.27c
1998 - Yet another silly error duplicating a column name in the SQLite
1999 make tables. No code change, just a make file.
2001 2002-11-29 Version 1.27b
2002 - Set DB version to 5 in DB make files.
2004 2002-11-28 Version 1.27a
2005 - Use g++ instead of gcc for testfind in tools
2007 2002-11-27 Version 1.27 (26Nov02) released 28 November 2002
2009 General: from kes25Nov02
2010 - Mostly Cygwin changes
2012 Changes submitted this submission:
2013 - Updated bdb_find.c to have new calling sequence for db_find_job_start_time
2014 - dird/catreq.c edit in Volume name in error messages to SD
2015 - attribs.c switch to using the cygwin API to convert from POSIX paths
2016 to Win32 paths. This now permits Win32 path specifications in Include
2017 statements (all combinations not yet tested). It also avoids the large
2018 number of errors seen by Lutz if a Win32 path is specified in the Dir.
2019 - Update testfind help and remove set_attribsEx debug code.
2020 - Build testfind as default.
2021 - Turn off debug message in stored/askdir.c
2023 General: from kes21Nov02
2024 - Another change in the database. You MUST either re-initialize
2025 your database or use the appropriate ./alter_xxx_tables in
2026 the src/cats directory.
2028 Changes submitted this submission:
2029 - Additional documentation.
2030 - Added MaxVolFiles to the database (not yet implemented in code).
2031 - Increased the database version from 3 to 4.
2032 - Change VolMaxBytes to MaxVolBytes, which is much more descriptive.
2033 - Compressed unnecessary spaces out of a lot of SQL statements.
2034 - Changed many %d to %u where unsigned integers are used.
2035 - Added the Bacula version and build date to each backup output.
2036 This will help knowing what version of Bacula was used.
2037 - Implemented VolUseDuration MaxVolBytes, MaxVolFiles, and MaxVolJobs
2038 based on maximums set in the Volume (Media) record rather than in the
2039 resource. This means the values can be individually set on a Volume basis.
2040 - Allow commas separating Include options (this was a subtle bug).
2041 - Added maximum string length argments to a number of subroutines to
2042 prevent buffer overflows. Most notably was do_prompt().
2043 - Replaced MANY occurrences of strcpy() with bstrncpy(), which guarantees
2044 both that the length is not exceeded and that the string is properly terminated.
2045 This has a risk of a certain destabilization -- as does the changes to
2046 the SQL noted above.
2047 - In cram-md5 routine use my_name if gethostname() returns an error.
2048 - Increase timeout from 2 minutes to 3 minutes in authorization code.
2049 - Check the full string including \n in authorization.
2050 - Throw away any response longer than MAXSTRING.
2051 - Added a number of additional error checks on subroutine return statuses.
2052 - Replaced as many lld's with edit_uint64 as I could find.
2054 - Added MaxVolBytes to Pool record - had forgotten it. Updated DB version.
2056 - Update manual to document new Pool/Volume attributes
2057 - Correct make_sqlite_tables (typo, plus missing value in Pool)
2058 - Fix bizarre behavior in gnome-console and console when auth fails.
2059 - Add Pool attribute query
2060 - Add a few more error messages in askdir.c
2061 - More strcpy() conversions to bstrncpy().
2063 General: from kes18Nov02
2064 - Did a number of cleanups of string copying to limit the length
2065 and prevent buffer overflows.
2067 Changes submitted this submission:
2068 - Added a mutex arount the gethostbyname() so that multiple simultaneous
2069 jobs get the correct address.
2070 - Added the MaxVolJobs to the Media alter tables script for MySQL (forgot it).
2071 - Changed arg to db_find_job_start_time to be POOLMEM for returning the string.
2072 - Add the new VolUseDuration and MaxVolJobs to all the db_ routines.
2073 - Use bstrncpy() in most places in the db_ routines to prevent a bad
2074 database from crashing Bacula (self protection).
2076 General: from kes13Nov02
2077 - You MUST either re-initialize your databases or use the
2078 ./alter_mysql_tables
2080 ./alter_sqlite_tables
2081 in the <bacula-src>/src/cats directory to modify your database tables.
2082 - Major improvements to dbcheck including an interactive mode.
2084 Changes submitted this submission:
2085 - Implemented VolumeUseDuration and MaximumVolumeJobs which control
2086 when a tape can be marked Used.
2087 - New tape status "Used" means it was used and cannot be used any more.
2088 - Defined utime_t which is 64 bit epoch time in seconds. btime_t is
2089 64 bit epoch time in microseconds.
2090 - Created alter_xxx_tables to add new columns (VolUseDuration, MaxVolJobs) to
2091 database. Incremented db version.
2092 - Changed a few subroutine names concerning dates to be more descriptive.
2093 - Fixed several places where the last filename was not stored in JCR in
2094 FD verify_vol.c and restore.c
2095 - Major update to dbcheck. Unfortunately I used subselects, which work
2096 perfectly fine in SQLite, but not at all in MySQL. I must now rework
2097 it for MySQL. What a pain!
2098 - Removed "Database found" from configure output. It was no longer used or valid.
2099 - Corrected doc --working-dir => --with-working-dir Thanks to Tuck for
2101 - Added the database name to the error message for mismatched DB version.
2102 - Commented out GMP and CWEB from configure as they are not currently used.
2104 General: from kes09Nov02
2105 - Converted the manual over to a new format written in wml. This
2106 gives navigation buttons on the top and bottom of each page
2107 as well as a standard page size.
2108 - Updated the main Web site, providing a menu bar to the left
2109 and much better organization and presentation of the information.
2110 - Added code to recognize a Volume written with a larger block
2111 size than specified. The code automatically adjusts.
2113 Changes submitted this submission:
2114 - Created a new scripts directory and moved most of the scripts
2115 previously in the main directory there. This cleans things up
2117 - Moved the randpass stuff into autoconf.
2118 - ensure that the generic make_bacula_tables and drop_bacula_tables
2120 - Added code to filed to allow it to be run from inetd. Just add the
2121 -i option. I have not tested it.
2123 General: from kes30Oct02
2124 - Alex found a problem with GZIP compression -- fixed.
2125 - bacula stript fixes.
2126 - Segment fault in Director fixed.
2127 - Added openbsd to platforms
2129 Changes submitted this submission:
2130 - GZIP compression was broken for large files due to a variable that
2131 is changed during the compression. This was relatively easy to fix.
2132 However, there were a number of fixes required to make GZIP and SPARSE
2133 files work together. Found one more place in bextract where SPARSE_GZIP
2134 testing was missing.
2135 - During testing of the above, I ran into the restore problem of multiple
2136 FileSet records. Fixed by including the FileSetId and the MD5 on the
2137 selection string, then always using the FileSetId. It is a bit
2138 confusing for the user, but ...
2139 - Francis found a problem with bacula.in (fixed - thanks)
2140 - I found another problem with bacula.in, so now it REALLY should work
2142 - Added the Replace options code for restores. Not tested.
2143 - Fixed an ugly stack overrun bug in reading the config file
2144 that has been in for a long time. I found this in testing on FreeBSD
2145 where the Director seg faulted.
2147 General: from kes29Oct02
2148 - Major change to the bnet communications routines.
2150 Changes submitted this submission:
2151 - Modified the bacula script to use pid files, so this script should
2152 now work on more platforms. Updated devel_bacula as well.
2153 - Added the full GNU hostname on the configuration print output.
2154 - Added gettimeofday() to configure, and tweaked a few variables for
2156 - Added a chapter to the manual on Porting Bacula to other platforms.
2157 - Documented in Tips how to use the WriteBootstrap record.
2158 - Modified bc_types.h to error if 64 bit types are not found.
2159 - Pass replace option for restore to the FD (no code to use it yet).
2160 - Modify the FD to pass back the GNU OS string as well as the DISTNAME
2161 and DISTVER. This needs to be put in the Client record in the catalog.
2162 - Major reworking of the bnet routines to eliminate the zero length which
2163 previously indicated a signal. This risks to create some subtle communications
2164 bugs. The changes now permit blank lines to be sent from the user to the
2166 - Found and corrected a few more places where the Win32 attributes were not
2168 - Permit spaces in the Where string (restore) by bashing/unbashing them.
2169 - Handle quotes correctly in the Console program (actually Dir ua code).
2170 Previously they were not handled in the middle of a string.
2171 - Corrected two error message (error reading file), which previously stated
2172 it was a network error.
2173 - Reworked the files in the binary Windows release. Removed unused programs
2174 and added a README with the copyright as suggested by John. Also added
2175 console.exe to the release.
2176 - Found and corrected an autoloader mount problem where the wrong tape
2177 was specified. Previously it looped, then gave up. Now it correctly
2178 detects the volume is not correct and zaps the Slot in the catalog.
2180 General: from kes23Oct02
2181 - I have mainly worked on getting all the details of a Restore
2182 to work correctly (new tape format, support for Win32
2184 - Trademarked name Bacula.
2185 - Implement Bacula tape format 11 (1.0 Immortal). This format
2186 will be maintained forever.
2187 - Accept Any Volume is yes by default. This modifies Bacula's behavior
2190 Changes submitted this submission:
2191 - Corrected a bug on FreeBSD where CFLAGS would get a "yes". I was
2192 unable to reproduce this, but a user confirmed the correction.
2193 It was a problem with detection of largefile support, which FreeBSD
2195 - Added a new "license" chapter in the manual. Re-licensed a number of
2196 library routines (bnet.c, hmac.c md5.c, cram-md5, ...) with LGPL so that they
2197 can be used in proprietary software to access Bacula if so desired.
2198 - Move Director's AutoChanger doc to correct location (in Storage
2200 - Document why trademark (to protect compatibility).
2201 - Implement and turned on Bacula tape format 11 (also BB02). This
2202 format moves the VolSessionId and VolSessionTime from each record
2203 header into the Block header. This is MUCH more efficient when reading
2204 records as now whole blocks can be skipped.
2205 Also added JobStatus in End Of Session record, and added MD5 for
2206 FileSet, which is necessary to insure uniqueness.
2207 - Implement a new Bacula time format for btime_t. It is Epoch time
2208 in microseconds (i.e. base 1 Jan 1970 in microseconds).
2209 This replaces previous floating point times.
2210 - Added Win32 extended attributes. In doing so, I moved all attribute
2211 handling from src/lib into src/findlib. Added new streams for
2212 Win32 attributes and for GZIP Win32 attributes.
2213 - Modified "Accept Any Volume" so that it really permits any volume
2214 in the pool to be mounted.
2215 - Removed "Mount Anonymous Volumes" from Storage daemon config.
2216 - Implemented sparse files. You must add "sparse=yes" on the include line
2217 for it to be enabled.
2218 - Print "None" in backup summary rather than 0.0% if there is no compression
2220 - Improved error checking in daemon connection/authentication code to prevent
2221 garbage data from harming a Bacula daemon.
2222 - All daemon tools MUST have a config file.
2223 - Completely strip drive specification on Win32 if a Where prefix is specified.
2224 - Corrected DB info for writing to files. Now the File Address is stored
2225 in File-Block variables in the catalog.
2226 - All Storage daemon tools now use common code for acquiring/reading
2228 - If a device is unmounted, report it even if the device is not open. This
2229 will help inform users who have BLOCKED Bacula by unmounting a drive.
2232 =============================================================================
2233 2002-10-12 Version 1.26 (10Oct02)
2234 General: from kes10Oct02
2235 - Changed Job name conventions to avoid : which is an illegal
2236 character on Windows.
2238 Changes submitted this submission:
2239 - Added check for inet_pton to configure.in. If it does not
2240 exist (e.g. Windows) use inet_aton
2241 - Documentation on GZIP.
2242 - Another restore doc example.
2243 - Documented btape fill command.
2244 - Set default restore directory from /tmp to /tmp/bacula-restores
2245 - Add additional no find error messages to sql_get.c
2246 - Creating a bootstrap file on Windows failed because the Job name
2247 contained colons which are illegal on Windows. Replaced the
2248 colons with periods. This corrects the Windows restore problem.
2249 - Print number of files to be restored in "restore" command.
2250 - On Windows systems, if there is a prefix, completely eliminate
2251 any drive: at the beginning of a path.
2252 - Minor corrections to the tree routines to handle Windows
2253 files such as c:/ better. Previously it insisted on /c:/, which
2254 would then not be found in the catalog for a "dir" command.
2255 - Modified cd command in restore to try /c: if c: fails.
2256 - Add a new S_ISWIN32 bit to the st_mode word so that low level
2257 routines that create files do not print error messages.
2258 - More work must be done to restore all Windows files correctly.
2259 Currently the following bits are not handled:
2263 Also, all the dates are not properly restored.
2265 General: from kes09Oct02
2266 - More documentation.
2267 - Implemented new fill command in btape that permits filling
2268 a tape and then reading it back to ensure that it works
2271 Changes submitted this submission:
2272 - Added ReadBytes to JCR, which contains Job bytes read by
2273 FD, JobBytes contains compressed output of FD.
2274 - Modified FD to pass back JobStatus, ReadBytes, JobBytes, ...
2275 for backup jobs. This is upward compatible.
2276 - Modified backup termination status report to contain the
2277 compression ratio 100 * (1 - compressed-bytes/uncompressed-bytes)
2278 This will always be zero if no software compression was
2279 done, or if you are using a version 1.25 or older FD.
2280 - Pickup Job termination status of FD in backup, so now
2281 the termination status represents the state of all three
2283 - Implemented new fill command in btape that permits filling
2284 a tape and then reading it back to ensure that it works
2287 General: From kes06Oct02
2288 - Implemented first major cut of bscan -- program to scan a tape
2289 and recreate a Bacula catalog.
2290 - Fixed lseek() relative negative seek that prevented writing multiple
2291 jobs to a File volume.
2292 - Implemented BB02 tape format -- currently turned off for writing.
2294 Changes submitted this submission:
2296 - Implemented new BB02 tape format, which moves the VolSessionId and
2297 VolSessionTime from the record headers into the Block header. It
2298 is currently turned off.
2299 - Implemented new btime time/date format on the tape. This is currently
2301 - Added JobStatus to EOS tape label. This is currently turned off.
2302 - Changed start_block, ... to StartBlock in JCR for uniformity.
2303 - Print a message telling which tables were dropped/made with
2304 ./drop_bacula_tables.
2305 - Return JobType and JobLevel in db_get_job_record().
2306 - Implemented get_current_btime(), which returns btime_t.
2307 - Bump debug message max size to 2000 bytes.
2308 - Add btime_t serial/unserial routines.
2309 - Rework all tape label routines to integrate btime and other
2310 label format changes (currently turned off -- for writing).
2311 - Fix lseek() to always be positive -- block.c
2312 - Consolidate record, block, and label major #defines in block.h.
2313 - Major implementation of bscan. Some more minor tweaking will be
2314 necessary. E.g. add multiple records for multiple simultaneous
2316 - Cleanup lseek() to always use off_t as second argument.
2317 - Add new "created" tape label (EOT_LABEL). This generates a callback
2318 to the read_records() routine when the final end of all tapes is
2319 reached allowing proper termination and updating of the media records.
2321 General: From kes25Sep02
2322 - Added means to bind servers to specific address.
2325 Changes submitted this submission:
2326 - Added DirAddress, FDAddress, and SDAddress records to the corresponding
2327 resources that allow the server to bind to a specific address
2328 rather than any address. This security improvement was suggested by
2329 a user -- thank you.
2330 - Eliminated deprecated "Address" record from all sample Storage resources.
2331 - Made quite a lot of improvements to the bscan program. Much more
2332 to do. Aside from details, it is able to recreate a database
2333 from which you can do a restore.
2334 - The s option is not accepted on all versions of ar, so replaced it
2335 by an explicit ranlib call.
2336 - Fixed a bug that caused the Director to crash if you rudely bring
2337 down the console program in the middle of an SQL command.
2338 - Fixed a bug (missing break) that caused scheduled Admin jobs to
2339 be listed as "Unknown type".
2340 - Removed old code from Storage daemon that used a separate FD port.
2342 General: From kes14Sep02
2343 - Better key generation on non OpenSSL systems.
2344 - 64 bit file address support if available.
2345 - Implement autochanger for reading
2346 - Lots of cleanup of tape reading code.
2347 - Automatically create all Pool resources when Bacula starts.
2349 - Implement autochanger use via the Console commands "add" and "label"
2350 - Begin implementation of a regression script
2351 - Write bootstrap after ever job
2353 Changes submitted this submission:
2354 - After noticing that the non OpenSSL random key generator was
2355 not good on Solaris, John wrote a very nice randpass generator.
2356 - Integrated John's makeSessionKey for generating the FD->SD
2358 - Statically link tools (doesn't work on Solaris).
2359 - Document how to debug Bacula (new chapter in the manual)
2360 - Remove unneeded printing of error message in sql_get.c
2361 - Free SD description config record (previous oversight)
2362 - Bash spaces when sending Director names, and unbash them when
2364 - Ensure no divide by zero in rate computation in backup.c
2365 - Implement WriteBootstrap in backup.c
2366 - Allow tape reading to request volume information for any
2368 - Create all Pool resources at startup.
2369 - Show only Backup jobs in Restore listing of last 20 Jobs.
2370 - Handle 64 bit stat packets in restore.
2371 - Don't do shell expansion on store_dir in config if string
2372 starts with |. This is used for piping the program for the
2374 - Ignore SIGHUP -- Déjà Gnu was triggering this.
2375 - Implement autochanger for reading, many changes to
2376 acquire_device_for_read()
2377 - Implement callback for reading Volume. Implement in bextract,
2381 - Fix Volume in bsr.
2382 - Move autochanger code to new subroutine in mount.c
2384 =============================================================================
2385 2002-09-05 Version 1.25a (05Sep02) Released
2386 - Fix unitialized stack variable in bextract so it
2387 will always read the currently mounted tape.
2389 =============================================================================
2390 2002-09-04 Version 1.25 (01Sep02) Released
2392 - Added .cvsignore files in each directory to cut down on the
2393 CVS output when scanning directories and finding Makefiles
2394 and such which are not part of the CVS tree.
2396 Changes submitted this submission:
2397 - Cleaned up a lot of the error messages in Verify, including
2399 - Had to remove some of the "automatic" error message printing
2400 in the DB because they are in fact things that come up
2401 for Verify but not really errors.
2404 2002-08-30 Version 1.25 (30Aug02) Beta
2406 - Fixed a bug where only the first file was restored if
2407 it is hard linked. The other links were lost.
2408 - In some cases of restoring to alternate directories, softlinks
2409 were not properly restored.
2413 - Bacula backups now run up to 12 times faster than version 1.24
2414 - Bacula can run multiple simultaneous Jobs.
2415 - Had to turn off TRANSACTIONS in SQLite because it doesn't work
2416 with multiple simultaneous jobs (I'm working on this).
2417 - Added a better Job printout for Restore Jobs.
2418 - Added a save/restore Rate to backup and restore jobs. This
2419 does not yet subtract out operator wait time so it will be
2420 underestimated it the Job waits on the tape (mount/label).
2421 - Fixed a major bug caused by free()ing a buffer twice in
2422 the Restore code. This made the SD more or less useless after
2423 any restore Job. Arrggg!
2424 - DIR - SD protocol changed, both must be updated at the same time.
2425 - DIR - FD protocol changed in upward compatible way. Upgrade of
2426 FD not required, but recommended.
2428 Changes submitted this submission:
2429 - Added bell to "make" when errors are detected.
2430 - Changed default compile option from -g to -g -O2
2431 - Additional documentation as usual -- much based on questions or
2432 feedback from users. Thanks.
2433 - Fixed example config files to use new syntax and to have a
2435 - Define ETIME to ETIMEOUT for Irix
2436 - Added JCR filed to DB structure permitting direct printing error
2437 messages from within the Database subroutines.
2438 Some error messages may be printed twice as a consequence.
2439 When I see them or someone reports them, I will remove the double.
2440 - Added JCR to the bsock structure. This allows direct printing
2441 of network errors from within the network code.
2442 - Made most "trivial" debug messages have level 100 or greater. This
2443 allows for easier debugging of new code using the range below 100.
2444 - Began replacing all Emsg() with Jmsg() using a NULL as the JCR in
2445 Jmsg() is the same as Emsg().
2446 - Fixed several crashes in the Director because of malformed config files.
2447 - Added SpoolAttributes to Job resource.
2448 - Pass CatalogFiles to SD. If set to no, the attributes are dropped
2449 within the SD rather than being sent to the DIR.
2450 - Cleaned up a number of information/error messages in user interface.
2451 This includes eliminating the "pretty please" response in favor of
2452 "yes/no" to delete volumes and pools.
2453 - Cleaned up quite a number of uninitialized variables reported when going
2454 to -O2, most were harmless, but a couple could cause problems.
2455 - The cd command in restore was not working correctly (it didn't allow some
2457 - Fixed a segmentation violation in the directory tree handling code in
2458 the restore command.
2459 - Handle a few error conditions in the restore command better.
2460 - Permit "Where" to be set to nul in modification of a run command.
2461 - Clarified the error message for Verify if an InitCatalog has not previously
2462 been done -- thanks Chuck.
2463 - Add MaximumConcurrentJobs to FD.
2464 - Added code to mem_pool to die if a buffer is released twice.
2465 - Lots of work done on SD for multiple simultaneous jobs. Split device.c
2466 into device.c, mount.c and acquire.c
2467 - Started writing new lock code for SD, but may back it out -- needs more
2468 thought. Current code works, but is too complicated. Maybe can simplify it.
2469 - Cleaned up the SD tools code quite a bit. Added bootstrap to all tools.
2470 - Ensure that tape session labels are not split across two blocks. This makes
2471 reading them back much easier.
2472 - Fixed another restore bug concerning tape labels on multi-volume saves.
2474 =============================================================================
2475 2002-08-14 Version 1.24
2477 - Made a new tools directory.
2478 - Moved smtp into the tools directory.
2479 - Created a dbcheck program in the tools directory that
2480 checks for certain database errors and if requested fixes them.
2481 - Put the database link flags on DB_LIBS so that it now only is
2482 on binaries that actually need it.
2483 - Document dbcheck and testfind programs.
2484 - Move testfind to tools directory.
2485 - Check for FileSet after getting Client name in Restore command.
2486 Modify all necessary SQL commands to accept FileSetId.
2487 - Add a db_get_fileset_record in cats directory.
2488 - Correct list last 20 files concatenation to be MySQL
2489 dependent. They aren't SQL standard. Use SQL standard || for
2491 - Modify dir command in file selection to produce a long form
2492 listing of the file/directory name.
2493 - Add platforms/irix/*.in files to CVS
2494 - Make Console command scanner accept quoted value fields.
2495 - If after selecting Client to restore, there are multiple
2496 FileSets, ask user to select one.
2497 - After obtaining JobIds for restore, ensure that there is only
2498 one MediaType, and select a Storage resource to be used.
2501 - Made restore actually work.
2502 - Made console and gconsole be configured (requested by Chuck)
2504 - changed fs in Job record to fileset for clarity
2505 - The console run command was not properly picking up the command
2506 line arguments. Fixed!
2507 - Changed add/remove/rm to mark/unmark
2508 - Volume keyword VolumeName was wrong, changed to Volume (in restore bsr).
2509 - Pass jcr to parse_bsr, and if non-NULL, it will output error messages
2510 to Job stream rather than Emsg.
2511 - Modified lexical scanner to include caller context so that jcr can
2512 be stored in lex context allowing error messages to be properly
2514 - Renamed the Job message chain to be jcr_msgs. This eliminated the
2515 previous confusion with the default value, now named jcr->messages.
2516 - Implemented multi-volume bsr records.
2517 - Implemented pm_strcat() and pm_strcpy() to cat/add to memory pool
2518 buffers in same way as strcat/strcpy, but expanding buffer.
2519 - Modified db_get_volume_names to handle arbitrarily long Volume list.
2522 - If the Console program terminated during the printing of messages,
2523 the message file was left locked. This was corrected by using the
2524 new read-write lock code.
2525 - Implemented Pw() and Vw() for obtaining and releasing a write lock
2526 using the rwl_xxx routines.
2527 - Deleted some old pthread_mutex code from mysql.c
2528 - In making the Irix port, I previously corrected the base64 routine so
2529 they were not sensitive to the machine definition of char. This made
2530 them incompatible with previous versions invalidating MD5 signatures
2531 which are in base64 format. I have now corrected this, making the
2532 routines compatible with the previous version but also insensitive
2533 to the default definition of char.
2534 - Removed some unnecessary NPRT() usage in signal.c (pointed out by
2536 - Add back BNET_NONO for compatibility with older File daemons.
2537 - Implement runing a restore Job in the restore command.
2538 - Make installation of query.sql unconditional. To prevent you own file
2539 from being overwritten, give it a different name.
2540 - Made parse_command_args() in ua take command from ua->cmd, this
2541 simplifies it and allows usage in other places -- e.g. building
2542 arguments for created run command in restore.
2543 - Cleaned the naming of s_full_ctx to be s_jobids.
2544 - Write the bsr created in restore to "working-directory"/restore.bsr
2545 - Fix bugs in command line scanner in run command -- also some misplaced
2547 - Eliminate static cmd in ua_server.c
2548 - Eliminate segmentation fault when using the Run command in the
2549 Console -- forgot to init_msgs().
2552 - Did a good amount of documentation.
2553 - Added sql_cmds.c to CVS, forgot, pointed out by Chuck.
2554 - Added new platforms/irix directory to CVS
2555 - Turn off transaction debug code in sql.c
2556 - Reworked the scheduler so that it handles the same Job starting
2557 twice in the same hour. Previously it took one or the other.
2558 - Tightened up the "slop" in the timings that I programmed to ensure
2559 that the same job isn't run twice or that no job was missed.
2560 - Increase the sleep time.
2561 - Used job_type_to_str() in status so that Admin jobs are correctly reported.
2562 - Add internationalization message chars to a number of routines
2564 - Make the watchdog timer clear the mutex when it exits.
2565 - Some tweaks to the Restore command. It needs fixing when a Job spans
2566 two or more volumes.
2569 - Initial cut at adding Irix File daemon support.
2570 - Lots of work on the restore command.
2571 - Take a stab at eliminating the "broken pipe message"
2572 when the console program prematurely terminates.
2573 - Reimplemented transactions for SQLite by keeping
2574 them all in the same thread.
2575 - quit in the Console program now waits for Bacula to
2576 quit. To immediately quit, you must enter .quit
2577 - Eliminated BNET_EOF -- this COULD have some negative consequences
2578 on interdaemon communications.
2579 - Define Job termination status for Admin jobs.
2580 - Write new bstrncpy() function that guarantees that strcpy is
2581 properly terminated.
2582 - Fixed command input in ua_input.c to accept quoted items as a
2586 - The changes that added indexes to the SQLite database were
2587 lost -- thanks to Chuck for pointing this out. Redone.
2588 - Fixed a problem quoting strings in SQLite. This showed up
2589 as database errors with files containing ' or " in the filename.
2590 - Implemente restore command -- still in progress.
2591 - Added indexes to all fields in SQLite that exist in MySQL.
2592 - Moved unused immortal files from src/lib to src/immortal.
2593 This will permit splitting depkgs.
2594 - Started work on adding embedded MySQL. Cannot get the tables
2595 to work for the moment. Please don't try to use this option.
2596 - Convert to using single quotes for enclosing all strings.
2597 - Implement correct quoting algorithm for SQLite strings.
2598 Is dequoting needed?
2599 - Started centralizing SQL statments in the Director in sql_cmds.c
2600 - Changed a number of M_ABORTs to M_ERROR_TERM so that program terminates
2601 but does not produce a dump.
2602 - Allow wild-card matches in bsr for Client name, and Job.
2603 - Change OflineOnUnmount=no as default.
2604 - Fixed improper printing of filenames containing a space in bls.c
2605 Thanks to Carlos for reporting this.
2607 ===========================================================================
2608 2002-07-26 Release 1.23a
2609 - Fix segmentation fault is FD status.
2610 - Turn off TRANSACTIONs for SQLite.
2612 ===========================================================================
2613 2002-07-23 Release 1.23
2615 - Updated Bacula to handle some minor differences in MySQL 4.0.2
2616 (still works with older MySQLs).
2617 - Updated MySQL documentation to correct some minor errors.
2618 - Added kernstodo to CVS
2619 - Fixed create_mysql_database, which I recently accidently broke.
2620 - Disallow zero length volume names in Console program.
2621 - Create alter_mysql_tables and alter_sqlite_tables for conversion
2622 from 1.22 table format to 1.23 table format.
2625 - Investigation of SQLite performace problems reported by Chuck.
2628 - made root@localhost the default email address because many smtp
2629 servers reject root but accept root@localhost
2630 - Added an autochangers chapter to the manual.
2631 - Documented most of the new features in 1.23
2632 - Modified the SQLite interface code to start a transaction at the
2633 beginning of a job and commit it at the end of the job. It
2634 also commits it after 10000 changes. Hopefully this will
2635 improve performance.
2636 - Set the default cache pages from 2000 to 10000 for SQLite (i.e.
2637 about 15Megs of memory) hoping to improve performance.
2638 - Terminate last filename referenced in FD prior to copy to
2639 avoid race problem with multiple threads and no locking.
2640 - Enhanced the status output to include the JobType
2641 - Print an error message if the email program terminates in error.
2642 - If your machine has an MTUNLOCK, do it before doing an OFFLINE to
2643 ensure that the door is unlocked.
2644 - Added code to stored/append.c to spool attributes. This is in
2645 a testing stage and must be explicitly enabled.
2646 - Added a no_attributes variable to stored/append.c that prevents
2647 the attributes from being sent to the Director. As yet, no way
2649 - Modified SQLite code so that after 10000 updates any transaction
2650 is committed, then restarted. This keeps it from using too much
2652 - Set the default cache size to 10000 pages (previously 2000).
2653 - Fixed a segmentation fault on Sun due to no default value for
2655 - Added the same indexes to SQLite that I exist in MySQL. This
2656 VASTLY reduces CPU usage for lots of inserts.
2657 - Added spooling to bnet_send().
2660 - The following two changes were prompted by questions/suggestions
2662 - If you have "AlwaysOpen = no" in your SD Device
2663 resource, Bacula will free() the drive when it
2664 is finished with the Job.
2665 - If you have "Offline On Unmount = yes", in your
2666 SD Device resource, Bacula will offline (or eject)
2667 the tape prior to freeing it.
2668 - Added Maximum Open Wait to allow open() to wait if drive is busy.
2669 - Added RunBeforeJob and RunAfterJob records to Job records.
2670 This permits running an external program with the following editing
2674 %d = Director's name
2683 - Added autochanger support to devices.c
2684 - Allow user to change Slot in the Volume record.
2685 - Implemented code in lib to run an external program
2687 - Implemented a changer script for mtx.
2688 - Currently the changer commands used are:
2689 loaded -- returns number of slot loaded or 0
2690 load -- loads a specified slot
2691 unload -- unloads the device (returns casette to slot)
2692 - Other changer commands defined but not yet used:
2693 list -- returns list of slots containing a cassette
2694 slots -- returns total number of slots
2695 - Implemented ChangerCommand, specified in the SD Device
2696 resource, permits editing of:
2698 %a = archive device name
2699 %c = changer device name
2706 - Implemented MaximumChangerWait default 120 seconds. It is
2707 specified in the SD Device resource.
2710 - Moved techlogs from main directory to be subdirectory of doc
2711 - Added code for strerror_r, and detection of gethostbyname_r().
2712 - The protocol between the Director and the SD has changed.
2713 - Major rework of SD tape mounting to prepare for Changer commands.
2714 - Separated Update Media record and Create JobMedia record. These
2715 are done from the SD by calling the Director. Need separate Create
2716 JobMedia so that when a Job spans a volume, all other Jobs writing
2717 the same volume will also have JobMedia records created.
2718 - Added message to user indicating selection aborted if he enters .
2719 to a Console selection request.
2720 - Create a jobstatus_to_ascii() routine for use in status commands.
2721 This makes a single routine from three separate pieces of code.
2722 Updated the code to properly handle more (all) termination statuses.
2723 - Tried to fix the gnome-console to handle history a bit better. There
2724 are still some problems with focus not being properly set to the edit
2725 box after history replacement.
2726 - Removed the shutdown() from bnet_close() hoping to fix Console termination
2727 errors that are occassionally seen -- no luck.
2728 - Moved add_str() to lib/util and renamed it add_str_to_pool_mem() so that
2729 it can be used to edit Job termination codes and Changer command codes.
2730 - Reworked how the SD mounts tapes (in device.c) so that control passes through
2731 only a single routine. The logic is much simpler than previously, and now
2732 adding AutoChanger code is straight forward.
2733 - Made SD tape mounting much more fault tolerant -- more cases retry instead
2734 of terminating the Job.
2735 - Wrote code to edit_device_codes() for Changer commands. Not yet fully
2737 - Added a ChangerDevice directive to the Device resource. Still need to add
2741 - This documents what I did while on vacation.
2742 - A fair amount of documentation.
2743 - Implemented Verify Volume to Catalog (needs renaming)
2744 - Modified the database to include new MarkId field as
2745 well as Counters. Database level is incremented from 1 to 2.
2746 - Added first cut of managing autochangers by implementing Slot in DB.
2747 - Fixed a good number of M_ERROR messages to be M_FATAL where appropriate.
2748 Also converted a number of Emsg() to Jmsg() permitting better Job error
2750 - First cut at implementing a general packet passing mechanism for bsock
2751 to replace printf and sscanf for passing data.
2752 - Made make_xxx_tables and drop_xxx_tables and create_xxx_database
2753 for bdb as well as sqlite. With this each database has the
2754 same set of scripts (with the exception that MySQL has grant_privileges).
2755 - Modified Makefile to only install the database scripts for the
2756 database that you are using.
2757 - Updated the pdf script to include all the html files.
2758 - Did quite a lot of documentation.
2759 - Made Bacula compile correctly with DEBUG turned off.
2760 - Implemented Pmsg() macros that permit using the debug print
2761 routines even with DEBUG off.
2762 - Updated job_cancelled() macro to handle JS_FatalError.
2763 - Changed db_find_last_full_verify() to db_find_last_jobid(). This
2764 permits working with Verify Volume to Catalog.
2765 - Removed TRANSACTION code from incrementing NextId for SQLite.
2766 - Implemented quick and dirty (not fully functional code) so that
2767 console program does not die if ctl-Z is entered.
2768 - Cleaned up backup.c a bit adding a bail_out goto to ensure proper
2769 handling of errors with minimum code.
2770 - Added passing Slot back and forth to Storage daemon with Volume info.
2771 - Implemented Slot in Media record in DB.
2772 - Implemented first cut of Counter resource in dird_conf.c. A counter
2773 resource is part of the Pool resource.
2774 - Implemented necessary database record. However, the resource doesn't
2775 yet create a DB record.
2776 - Implemented onefs (One File System) and recurse options on Include
2778 - Implemented autopruning of Verify and Restore Jobs.
2779 - Did a better job of calculating thread_concurrency() for Sun systems.
2780 This permits better multi-threading allowing all the threads to run
2782 - Implemented a wait_for_storage_daemon_termination(), which is used by
2783 backup and verify volume.
2784 - Clarified a number of UA prompts, and add feedback where certain commands
2785 completed but printed nothing. (More work to be done here).
2786 - Added a pile of new code to implement Verify Volume to Catalog. It is sort
2787 of a hybrid of "restore" and "verify" in that it actually reads the tape,
2788 then compares it to the catalog. Need Verify Volume to Client.
2789 - Added a good number of checks for job_cancelled() this should permit
2790 quicker and more reliable cancelling of jobs.
2791 - Fixed one bug in restore where I used ofile instead of lname, which means
2792 that if the lname was too long, the memory was not properly reallocated.
2793 - Cleaned up find_one.c in findlib quite a bit.
2794 - Link smtp static so that it works even if the libraries are messed up.
2795 - If mail host is not found, retry with local host in smtp.
2796 - Added slot and stream to the bootstrap record processing.
2797 - Do offline on tape cartrige for unmount command. This can be turned off
2798 by the user in the config file. OffLineOnUnmount in Device resource.
2799 - Implemented AutoChanger = yes/no in Device resource.
2801 ===========================================================================
2802 2002-07-07 Release 1.22
2803 - All the basic Restore code to handle the boostrap file is
2804 now implemented with the exception of the Console Restore command.
2805 - Retained compatibility with previous Restore providing no
2806 bootstrap file is specified. However, the old code (JobId based)
2807 will go away in a future release.
2808 - Fixed a number of segmentation faults in the Console program due
2809 to printing of NULL pointers -- thanks to Chuck and his Sun for
2810 finding and reporting them -- mostly in ua_output.c.
2813 - Null pointers now are printed as *None* if NPRT() is used.
2814 - At the request of Phil, all resources are now chained in in the
2815 order they appear in the config file.
2816 - Implement Bootstrap record in the Director's config file, which
2817 allows you to specify a predefined bootstrap file for Restore Jobs.
2818 - Allow Bootstrap on the Restore record. This is deprecated.
2819 - Implemented code to pass the Bootstrap file, if defined, to the
2820 File daemon, then from the File daemon to the Storage daemon.
2821 - Added ability to set Bootstrap file in the Console when running a Restore.
2822 - Allow scan_error() routine to be passed to lex_open_file(). This permits
2823 using lex in the Storage daemon without worrying that it will ABORT on
2824 a syntax error. More work is needed to direct the error messages correctly.
2825 - Improved error messages a bit when config syntax errors are found.
2826 - Tested and corrected some errors in match_bsr.c
2827 - Removed askdir.c from bls and bextract by defining dummy entry points.
2828 - bextract now has bootstrap pretty well integrated.
2829 - Changed bextract ABORTs into FATAL and exit(1) or ERROR_TERMINATE.
2831 - Eliminated at least one lld and replaced it by edit_uint64()
2832 - Eliminated a few more _PROTO()s.
2833 - Corrected a problem with the SQL for in query.sql for
2834 Listing Volumes to Restore All Files
2837 - Additional documentation.
2838 - Reduce the time the jcr mutex is locked in lib/jcr.c
2839 - More null pointer printing fixes in lib/parse_conf.c (debug output only).
2840 - Added daemon filename to Kaboom message so I know what daemon died.
2841 - Fix big bad bug introduced in watchdog.c last update that caused
2842 a segmentation violation (forgot to check for NULL pointer).
2843 - Add a bit more info to bad returns from Stored when starting
2848 - Fixed backup scanning forgot one T_STRING -> T_UNQUOTED_STRING
2849 - changed all rwlock_t to brwlock_t to avoid conflicts with
2851 - Added NPRT() macro to allow printing of NULL pointers, which
2852 segment fault on Solaris.
2853 - Cast printing of pid_t to int for Solaris compiler.
2856 - Added expect argment to lex_get_token().
2857 - Added tree.c and tree.h to lib directory.
2860 - Improvements to the bootstrap compiler
2861 - Implemented first cut of bootstrap code in the Storage daemon
2862 - Modified the authentication code to be more explicit during
2864 - Added a few more debug message numbers with more arguments (Dmsg10, ...)
2865 - Added more and more precise error messages when authentication fails.
2866 - Implemented new "expect" codes in the lexical scanner that allows
2867 the caller to specify what he wants.
2868 - Added integer, positive integer, 64 bit integer, and integer ranges,
2869 and name scanning to lex.
2870 - Implemented new lex code in parse_conf.c, this reduces significantly
2872 - Hopefully fixed a watchdog race bug that caused the watchdog to time
2873 out a line after 1 hour rather than 6 days.
2876 - Implemented a Bootstrap file parser and matcher.
2877 - Implemented first cut of bootstrap code in bextract
2878 - Started clarifying different termination codes.
2879 - Added M_ERROR_TERM to immediately terminate the daemon -- no dump.
2880 Also changed a few termination codes as appropriate.
2881 - Fixed create_jobmedia_record() to include all the fields such as
2882 StartFile/EndFile, StartBlock/EndBlock.
2883 - Print user friendly message when query mode ends.
2884 - Fixed ls style print routines (bextract, bls, restore) to check
2885 buffer size, to print the link if any, and to used edit_uint64()
2887 - Moved scan_to_eol() and s_err() to lex.c to avoid dragging in
2888 parse_conf.c for new bsr scanning code.
2889 - New files: bsr.h, parse_bsr.c and match_bsr.c. parse_bsr.c parses
2890 a Bootstrap file, and match_bsr.c matches a bsr against a tape.
2891 - use strcasecmp() in several places instead of lcase().
2892 - Add first cut of bootstrap to bextract.
2893 - Added File Size limit -- writes EOF after limit exeeded.
2895 ===========================================================================
2896 2002-06-12 Release 1.21
2897 - Fixed several problems with filenames being truncated if
2898 they contain spaces. Thanks to the user that reported this.
2899 - N.B. To get the new queries, after the "make" and
2900 "make install" you must explicitly replace the
2901 existing query.sql by query.sql.new. query.sql is a
2902 user configuration file, so it is not overwritten.
2903 - Added GZIP compression of Included files.
2904 - Added additional fields to tape SOS record permitting better
2905 recovery with no database.
2906 - Be sure to remove any !terminate statements you may have
2907 in your config files.
2908 - MUST UPDATE ALL DAEMONS due to protocol change to handle new
2912 - Updated examples directory with my most recent config files.
2913 - Modified the M_TERM meaning to mean that Bacula has
2914 terminated in error without producing a dump. Previously,
2915 it meant that Bacula terminate (with or without error).
2916 You should remove any !terminate from your messages
2918 - Changed the order of the libraries in the link so that
2919 tcp wrappers link properly. Thanks Phil for reporting this.
2920 - A user reported that filenames containing spaces were truncated
2921 in bextract. This was indeed the case. They were also truncated
2922 in Restore as well as in Verify. They are, hopefully, all fixed
2924 - Made a few error conditions in Verify non-fatal.
2925 - Modified the Console "query" command to permit multiple SQL
2926 statements per command.
2927 - Implemented three new "query" options:
2928 List last 10 Full Backups for a Client
2929 List Volumes used by selected JobId
2930 List Volumes to Restore All Files
2931 To use them, simply type "query" to the Console program, and
2932 select the one you want.
2933 - Modified bextract to default to extracting all files (i.e. /).
2934 - Cleaned up the code in bextract a bit.
2937 - Improve Verify command to include files examined.
2938 - Eliminate fcntl() locking of the console file and replaced
2939 it with a pthreads mutex.
2940 - Note Director - SD protocol is changed to handle new tape
2941 information (Fileset, JobType, JobLevel).
2942 - Create config.out that contains a summary of ./configure
2943 to see what you previously configured: "cat config.out"
2944 - Implemented GZIP compression. Added addition syntax to
2945 Include { } resource to permit setting of any GZIP compression
2952 Level 1 is minimum compression and level 9 is maximum. Using just
2953 GZIP gives the default (level 6).
2954 - Enhanced the tape format to include the unique Job name, FileSetName,
2955 JobType, and JobLevel in the Start/End of Session records. The code
2956 detects that tape level difference and acts accordingly. You can
2957 add data in the new format to old tapes.
2958 - Fixed an incorrect display message in the prune command.
2959 - Began implementation of Verify Volume and Verify Data.
2960 - Cleaned up File daemon restore.c a bit ensuring that termination
2961 cleanup is done and all possible Emsgs are converted to Jmsgs.
2962 - Modify bls.c to use common setup routines. This reduced the big
2963 code duplication that creeped in when I added different listing
2964 options. Also, changing tapes is now handled uniformily in a subroutine.
2966 ===========================================================================
2967 2002-05-27 Release 1.20
2968 - Started documenting Catalog Pruning and Recycling.
2969 Added catmaintenance.html and recycling.html
2970 - Fixed the query command bug.
2971 - Implemented PID files to prevent two copies of Bacula
2972 from running at the same time. Be sure you --with-pid-dir
2973 points to a working directory.
2974 - Modified ASSERT() to cause a segmentation violation. This
2975 permits a core dump.
2976 - Worked on gnome-console. It paints better, it tells you if it
2977 is ready to accept a command or processing one, and it is
2978 almost entirely GTK+ (rather than GNOME, I'm removing GNOME
2980 - Limit to 100 the number of tape labeling errors in a single Job.
2981 - Add some additional ASSERT()s to the database routines. I don't
2982 like ASSERTs but they do catch bugs.
2983 - Tested and debugged recycling of Volumes. Needed to change
2984 the Director-SD protocol slightly.
2985 - Removed the experimental SIGHUP in the Director as it is a
2986 potential source of errors.
2987 - Added Level, Pool, Messages, and Storage keyword/value scanning
2988 to the Schedule Run record.
2989 - Improved printing of Schedule resources with "show schedules"
2990 - Do not autoprune Jobs/Files if the Job errs.
2991 - Updated newvol() to pass back the updated Media record.
2992 - Fixed the "update pool" command, which was broken during a much
2993 earlier code reorganization.
2994 - Improved a few of the pruning messages.
2995 - Removed readline inclusions from gnome-console (hang over from console).
2996 - Make Jmsg use daemon message handler if no message handler is defined.
2997 This is always the case in the SD and FD.
2998 - Started removing __PROTO(). With C++ prototypes are manditory, so why
2999 keep around legacy code.
3000 - Added a good deal of message internationalization -- more to be done.
3001 - Move cached Path into mdb structure and use POOLMEM.
3002 - Fix verify bug introduced last update causing incorrect diffs
3003 by turning off autopruning.
3004 - Started adding code to distinguish Errors from Fatal Errors.
3005 - Errors are now counted in message.c for a Job.
3006 - More POOLMEM cleanups.
3007 - Implemented Automatic pruning.
3008 - Implemented Automatic recycling of Volumes.
3009 - Added PruneJobs/Files/Volumes=yes or no to Job resource. If set,
3010 it forces the specified pruning.
3011 - Modified rwlock to accept multiple nested write lock
3013 - Modified the cats directory to use the new rwlock mechanism
3014 in place of P() and V().
3015 - Defined db_lock(mdb) and db_unlock(mdb). They are in effect
3017 - Add CVS Id's to most files.
3018 - Made first cut at AutoPrune
3019 - Added new autoprune file that is called at the end of
3020 each Job. It then decides when and what to prune and
3021 calls the UA prune routines.
3022 - Modified Run (in Schedule resource) to permit overrides of
3023 Level, Pool, Storage, and Messages. (not tested).
3024 - Added more POOLMEM in place of char.
3025 - Implemented daemon pid files. This prevents multiple
3026 daemons from running simultaneously. You can run multiple
3027 daemons if they listen on different ports.
3028 - Documented the Schedule resource a bit better.
3029 - Began gently adding a POOLMEM type (perviously void).
3030 For the moment it is a #define to char, but long term
3031 it should be its own typedef.
3032 - Corrected a bit of spacing on the status bar of gnome-console
3033 - Added Admin and Archive Job types.
3034 - Implemented multiple Messages resources. Each daemon has
3035 its own message resource, which defaults if not defined.
3036 Jobs may now have different message handlers.
3037 - Cleaned up a bit of duplicate code in backup, verify, and
3038 restore by creating appropriate subroutines in job.c
3039 - Added Type, Client, FileSet, and Level resource record
3040 definitions to the Director. These can be used in place
3041 of the Backup = ..., Verify = ..., ... commands. This needs
3043 - Corrected an incorrect message in the prune code and added
3044 the number of Files pruned in the message.
3045 - Corrected several paint problems with gnome-console.
3046 - Added a bit of printout in signal handler during traceback.
3047 - Cleaned up most of sm_check() to be turned on/off by define
3050 ===========================================================================
3051 2002-05-10 Release 1.19
3052 - Allow the user to select a new period for pruning.
3053 - Lots of additions to the manual -- prune and purge
3054 commands documented.
3055 - Applied Phil's configure.in fix for --prefix, ...
3056 - Fixed bug found by Phil (patch supplied) in updating
3057 MD5 signatures (revert to 32 bit FileId, move "static"
3058 variables into JCR) (catreq.c fd-cmds.c).
3059 - Reverted to using INTEGER for FileId in make_sql_tables
3060 due to a bug in MySQL.
3061 - Change editing code to %d for FileId.
3062 - Remove sqlite in make distclean in cats directory.
3063 - Remove console.conf in console during make distclean.
3064 - Remove gnome-console.conf during make distclean.
3065 - Remove bacula-dir.conf during make distclean.
3066 - Set default level when using Console if none specified.
3067 Bug reported by Phil.
3068 - A simple . command from Console is ignored.
3069 - Change program named from filed to bacual-fd in winmain.cpp
3070 - Change default config file for Win32 in winmain.cpp
3071 - Free namebuf on early return from find_one.c. Bug reported by Phil.
3072 - Modify testfind.c to dump orphaned buffers.
3073 - Removed terabytes from parse_conf.c because of problems with
3074 older gcc compilers.
3075 - Turn off gnome options in gnome-console by constructing empty argv.
3076 - Fixes to Verify when only MD5 differs.
3077 - Insert 0 for MD5 as default rather than space.
3078 - Allow .messages "transparent" command while reading input
3079 in UserAgent server.
3080 - In dird/verify.c ensure that correct filename is printed if only
3081 the MD5 differs. Minor reindenting caused large diff.
3082 - Delete unused code from backup.c
3083 - In filed/verify.c ensure that same algorithm as backup.c is used
3084 to pass back MD5 signatures -- especially for directories and files
3085 that cannot be read. Change dummy filename from X to *MD5-id*.
3086 This dummy value should never be printed.
3087 - Make gnome-console poll Director every 5 seconds for output.
3088 This means that queued up messages are displayed at reasonable
3089 intervals. Delete some unused code hanging around from the tty
3091 - Begin implementation of prune commands.
3092 - Add command line history to gnome-console. Not yet saved across sessions.
3093 - Fixed some broken URLs in the manual.
3095 - Wrote first cut of "prune files" and "prune jobs".
3096 - Added command line history to gnome-console 2500 lines max.
3097 - Widened store_time() and associated variables to 64 bits using
3098 new btime_t definition.
3099 - Removed GNOME about box and replaced it with
3100 a somewhat crude Gtk+ about box in the gnome-console.
3101 - Widened StartDay in the Job DB record to be 64 bits.
3102 - Changed edit_uint_ to edit_uint64_ everywhere. Much more
3103 descriptive of what is done.
3104 - Removed most llds and replaced them with %s and edit_uint64.
3105 This makes the code a bit easier to read for beginners.
3106 - Added a btime_t typedef which is 64 bits wide.
3107 - Added most of the code needed to do Purge and Prune of
3108 database. Not yet tested. Please do not use.
3109 - Additional config options for Console.
3110 - Started adding code for Automatic Recycling of Volumes.
3111 - Allow arbitrary length filenames in Verify code.
3112 - Fix incorrect filename in Verify code.
3113 - Significant enhancement to number scanning in config parser.
3114 - Requires initializing MySQL tables, or applying cats/alter.sql
3115 to modify Media table.
3116 - Modified Makefile to printer a much more visible
3117 message if the make ends in error.
3118 - Added the Purge value to the VolStatus in the Media table.
3119 This value is set if the Volume is purged.
3120 - Enhanced the db_delete_media_record() routine to delete
3121 all associated records in the database.
3122 - Modified Console to always write to the variable "output"
3123 rather than stdout. This will permit directing output to a file.
3124 - Enhanced the Console configuration file to have a Console
3125 resource. This will allow us to add an rcfile and history file.
3126 - Modified Find_next_vol in catreq.c to search for "Recycle"
3127 volumes if there are none marked Append. Also made Get_Vol_info
3128 return the VolStatus to the Storage daemon.
3129 - Allow upper/lower case match on job level names.
3130 - Added another warning message to the Console "delete media" command.
3131 - Corrected a number of FileId types from uint64_t to FileId_t in
3133 - In ua server close database before freeing JCR (because pointer is
3134 kept in ua and jcr structures).
3135 - parse all numbers as doubles. Do lots of checking for valid number
3136 formats. Allow numbers in scientific form (e.g. 1.5e+10).
3137 - Remove terabyte modifier as it doesn't work in some compilers.
3138 - Fix bug in handling some modifiers.
3139 - Added all necessary code for Recycle to Storage daemon. A Volume
3140 marked Recycle will now be overwritten.
3141 - Filled out the prune command a bit and did some testing.
3142 - Make console accept redirected input.
3143 - Altered the Table definitions to include Recycle,
3144 FileRetention, JobRetention, and AutoPrune.
3145 - Widened StartDay to 64 bits.
3146 - Use JobId_t in more places.
3147 - Added the new table fields to the database record definitions.
3148 - Changed Recycle from string to a binary quantity.
3149 - Added a Version table with a VersionId to detect.
3150 future changes in the database. This should prevent
3151 a Bacula from working with a database that is not in sync.
3152 - Modify Console to accept input from a file. This will permit
3153 the .read command and allow reading a .rc file.
3154 - Added new retention and recycle variables to the Director's configuration.
3155 - The UA subroutines or commands can now be called from core
3156 code because the output routines detect the absence of a
3157 UA socket and direct output to the Job.
3158 - Added a verbose flage to the ua packet to permit reduction of
3159 output while running a UA command (prune) from a Job.
3160 - Did a fair amount of work on the prune command. Prune Volume now works.
3161 - Purge Volume now works.
3162 - Made last changes for integrating prune and purge commands.
3163 - Add -ltermcap to CONS_LIBS when readline is configured.
3164 More work to be done to search for termcap.
3165 - Added cats/drop_sqlite_tables.in, which will delete the SQLite database.
3166 - Got CWEB working so that we can compile filesys.w and immortal.w
3167 - Modified depkgs to include cweb.
3168 - Note, CWEB is not yet used by the core Bacula code.
3169 - Made cats/alter.sql, which alters an old database to bring it
3170 up to the new format. This only works with MySQL since SQLite does
3171 not have the ALTER SQL command.
3172 - Changed the old StartDay field in the db to be JobTDate, which is
3173 the latest time/date in widened Unix time format that the Job ran.
3174 This value is used when doing pruning.
3175 - Added code in cats/sql.c to verify that the database internal version
3176 corresponds to the db version compiled in Bacula. It is set to 1 currently.
3177 - Lots of changes to cats to bring the SQL up to date with the new
3178 retention period changes.
3179 - Added Console command code to permit changing a Volume's retention period.
3180 - Removed old code that used date_encode() and replaced it with widened
3182 - Started modifying Message resource scanner so that we can have multiple
3183 message resources. Much more work to be done.
3184 - Moved scanning for time into new library routine string_to_btime().
3186 ===========================================================================
3187 2002-04-22 Release 1.18
3188 - Applied Phil's configure.in fix for --prefix, ...
3189 - Fixed bug found by Phil (patch supplied) in updating
3190 MD5 signatures (revert to 32 bit FileId, move "static"
3191 variables into JCR) (catreq.c fd-cmds.c).
3192 - Reverted to using INTEGER for FileId in make_sql_tables
3193 due to a bug in MySQL.
3194 - Change editing code to %d for FileId.
3195 - Remove sqlite in make distclean in cats directory.
3196 - Remove console.conf in console during make distclean
3197 - Remove gnome-console.conf during make distclean
3198 - Remove bacula-dir.conf during make distclean
3199 - Set default level when using Console if none specified.
3200 Bug reported by Phil.
3201 - A simple . command from Console is ignored.
3202 - Change program named from filed to bacual-fd in winmain.cpp
3203 - Change default config file for Win32 in winmain.cpp
3204 - Free namebuf on early return from find_one.c. Bug reported by
3206 - Modify testfind.c to dump orphaned buffers.
3207 - Removed terabytes from parse_conf.c because of problems with
3208 older gcc compilers.
3209 - Turn off gnome options in gnome-console by constructing empty
3212 ===========================================================================
3213 2002-04-18 Release 1.17 Kern Sibbald
3214 - Ensure that platforms Makefiles are called for clean
3216 - Hide a lot of Makefile messages with @
3217 - Applied Phil's configure.in patch. Thanks.
3218 - Doc updates, many to clarify points brought up by Phil.
3219 - Applied Phil's make_mysql_tables.in patch. Thanks.
3220 - Made authenticate.c in dird test bnet_send status.
3221 - Make label a bit more friendly with extra info message.
3222 - Add level 200 to debug info in run command.
3223 - Remove old code from findlib/testfind.c so that it compiles.
3224 - Add two minute max wait to cram-md5 authentication. Hopefully,
3225 this will catch non-responding WinNT daemons.
3226 - Allow time and size modifiers to be upper or lower case.
3227 - Turn off old CYGWIN patch for pthread_cond_timedwait() bug that
3228 now causes File daemon hangs on WinNT.
3229 - Fix mount messages for restore. Previous updates to save
3230 broke the restore code.
3231 - By default write fixed block sizes rather than variable block
3232 sizes. My Sony DAT simply does not work (reread failures) with
3233 variable block sizes.
3234 - Data split across tapes was not being correctly restored
3235 (at least on DAT tapes).
3236 - Implement MaximumBlockSize and MinumBlockSize statements in
3237 Storage daemon so user can specify variable block sizes if
3239 - Return error if block checksum error on read (previously
3241 - Fixed some error messages in bls, and in some cases exit(1)
3242 rather than ABORT. There remain ABORTs to be examined.
3243 - Made a local copy of tcpd.h and corrected the function
3244 prototype problem for C++.
3246 ===========================================================================
3247 2002-04-14 First public release 1.16 Kern Sibbald
3248 - Many intervening changes/updates.
3250 2001-09-29 Release 1.0 Kern Sibbald
3251 - Fixes to problems found at John's installation.
3252 - See techlogs/kes25Sep01 for details
3254 2001-09-25 Release 1.0 Kern Sibbald
3255 - Helped John install at his site.
3256 He is backing up one Linux machine and
3257 one Win2000 machine.
3259 2001-mm-dd Many releases
3260 - Released internally.
3262 2000-04-09 Release 0.4 Kern Sibbald
3263 - Added a lot of Director configuration code. In
3264 part (a small part), the Director now uses the
3265 bacula.conf file to know what to do. There still
3266 remains a lot to do.
3267 - The file search code is now integrated into the
3268 MySQL database routines, and Bacula is now hooked
3269 into the MySQL database (if so configured). Thus
3270 all the database records are being created, though
3271 there still remains some work in getting all the
3272 details into the records (such as the Storage
3274 - I've defined how Volume pools work (see manual).
3275 - I've defined error message handling though no code
3277 - The following resources and records are implemented
3278 in the Director configuration file (bacula.conf):
3281 Name (passed to Storage daemon)
3284 Password (not yet used)
3286 Name, Address, Port, Password, MediaType
3290 Backup (only one permitted)
3293 Schedule, Messages, Pool (not used)
3296 Include (options ignored)
3297 Exclude (no options)
3302 Debug, syslog, mail, append (not used)
3305 Address, Port, Password (not used)
3308 PoolType, MediaType (not used)
3310 - Added Storage configuration routines.
3312 Name, password (verified against those sent by Director)
3314 Name, Address, Port (address, port must correspond to Director's values)
3317 Name, MediaType (must correspond to those sent by Director)
3318 Archive Device (defines device name)
3321 2000-03-10 Release 0.3 Kern Sibbald
3322 - Implemented new base64 encoding for attributes.
3323 This eliminates some of the error messages in the
3324 sprintfs on the Solaris due to different stat() sizes.
3325 - Implemented the first cut of the file search routines for
3326 the File daemon. The exclusion lists work including wild
3327 cards. There is a lot of work to be done, but the basic
3328 structure is now in place (wild cards do not yet work for
3330 - Completed writing the memory pool code. Now I must
3331 implement it in the daemons.
3332 - Modified the bacula start/stop script so that it has a
3333 better chance of working on SGI and Solaris.
3334 - The catalog code has not been converted to the new file
3337 2000-03-06 Release 0.2 Kern Sibbald
3338 - Integrated John's fixes.
3339 - Made Makefiles self configuring when Makefile.in is changed.
3340 - Added a runit script in the top level that runs bacula
3341 - Added a "bacula" script in the top level directory that
3342 starts and stops the File daemon and the Storage daemon.
3344 2000-03-03 Release 0.1 Kern Sibbald
3345 - Basic Director, File, and Storage daemons.
3346 Standalone Catalog services using MySQL
3348 2000-01-22 Kern Sibbald
3349 * Setup basic file structure with ./configure
