1 2002-08-?? Version 1.24 (not yet released)
3 - Made a new tools directory.
4 - Moved smtp into the tools directory.
5 - Created a dbcheck program in the tools directory that
6 checks for certain database errors and if requested fixes them.
7 - Put the database link flags on DB_LIBS so that it now only is
8 on binaries that actually need it.
9 - Document dbcheck and testfind programs.
10 - Move testfind to tools directory.
11 - Check for FileSet after getting Client name in Restore command.
12 Modify all necessary SQL commands to accept FileSetId.
13 - Add a db_get_fileset_record in cats directory.
14 - Correct list last 20 files concatenation to be MySQL
15 dependent. They aren't SQL standard. Use SQL standard || for
17 - Modify dir command in file selection to produce a long form
18 listing of the file/directory name.
19 - Add platforms/irix/*.in files to CVS
20 - Make Console command scanner accept quoted value fields.
21 - If after selecting Client to restore, there are multiple
22 FileSets, ask user to select one.
23 - After obtaining JobIds for restore, ensure that there is only
24 one MediaType, and select a Storage resource to be used.
27 - Made restore actually work.
28 - Made console and gconsole be configured (requested by Chuck)
30 - changed fs in Job record to fileset for clarity
31 - The console run command was not properly picking up the command
32 line arguments. Fixed!
33 - Changed add/remove/rm to mark/unmark
34 - Volume keyword VolumeName was wrong, changed to Volume (in restore bsr).
35 - Pass jcr to parse_bsr, and if non-NULL, it will output error messages
36 to Job stream rather than Emsg.
37 - Modified lexical scanner to include caller context so that jcr can
38 be stored in lex context allowing error messages to be properly
40 - Renamed the Job message chain to be jcr_msgs. This eliminated the
41 previous confusion with the default value, now named jcr->messages.
42 - Implemented multi-volume bsr records.
43 - Implemented pm_strcat() and pm_strcpy() to cat/add to memory pool
44 buffers in same way as strcat/strcpy, but expanding buffer.
45 - Modified db_get_volume_names to handle arbitrarily long Volume list.
48 - If the Console program terminated during the printing of messages,
49 the message file was left locked. This was corrected by using the
50 new read-write lock code.
51 - Implemented Pw() and Vw() for obtaining and releasing a write lock
52 using the rwl_xxx routines.
53 - Deleted some old pthread_mutex code from mysql.c
54 - In making the Irix port, I previously corrected the base64 routine so
55 they were not sensitive to the machine definition of char. This made
56 them incompatible with previous versions invalidating MD5 signatures
57 which are in base64 format. I have now corrected this, making the
58 routines compatible with the previous version but also insensitive
59 to the default definition of char.
60 - Removed some unnecessary NPRT() usage in signal.c (pointed out by
62 - Add back BNET_NONO for compatibility with older File daemons.
63 - Implement runing a restore Job in the restore command.
64 - Make installation of query.sql unconditional. To prevent you own file
65 from being overwritten, give it a different name.
66 - Made parse_command_args() in ua take command from ua->cmd, this
67 simplifies it and allows usage in other places -- e.g. building
68 arguments for created run command in restore.
69 - Cleaned the naming of s_full_ctx to be s_jobids.
70 - Write the bsr created in restore to "working-directory"/restore.bsr
71 - Fix bugs in command line scanner in run command -- also some misplaced
73 - Eliminate static cmd in ua_server.c
74 - Eliminate segmentation fault when using the Run command in the
75 Console -- forgot to init_msgs().
78 - Did a good amount of documentation.
79 - Added sql_cmds.c to CVS, forgot, pointed out by Chuck.
80 - Added new platforms/irix directory to CVS
81 - Turn off transaction debug code in sql.c
82 - Reworked the scheduler so that it handles the same Job starting
83 twice in the same hour. Previously it took one or the other.
84 - Tightened up the "slop" in the timings that I programmed to ensure
85 that the same job isn't run twice or that no job was missed.
86 - Increase the sleep time.
87 - Used job_type_to_str() in status so that Admin jobs are correctly reported.
88 - Add internationalization message chars to a number of routines
90 - Make the watchdog timer clear the mutex when it exits.
91 - Some tweaks to the Restore command. It needs fixing when a Job spans
95 - Initial cut at adding Irix File daemon support.
96 - Lots of work on the restore command.
97 - Take a stab at eliminating the "broken pipe message"
98 when the console program prematurely terminates.
99 - Reimplemented transactions for SQLite by keeping
100 them all in the same thread.
101 - quit in the Console program now waits for Bacula to
102 quit. To immediately quit, you must enter .quit
103 - Eliminated BNET_EOF -- this COULD have some negative consequences
104 on interdaemon communications.
105 - Define Job termination status for Admin jobs.
106 - Write new bstrncpy() function that guarantees that strcpy is
108 - Fixed command input in ua_input.c to accept quoted items as a
112 - The changes that added indexes to the SQLite database were
113 lost -- thanks to Chuck for pointing this out. Redone.
114 - Fixed a problem quoting strings in SQLite. This showed up
115 as database errors with files containing ' or " in the filename.
116 - Implemente restore command -- still in progress.
117 - Added indexes to all fields in SQLite that exist in MySQL.
118 - Moved unused immortal files from src/lib to src/immortal.
119 This will permit splitting depkgs.
120 - Started work on adding embedded MySQL. Cannot get the tables
121 to work for the moment. Please don't try to use this option.
122 - Convert to using single quotes for enclosing all strings.
123 - Implement correct quoting algorithm for SQLite strings.
125 - Started centralizing SQL statments in the Director in sql_cmds.c
126 - Changed a number of M_ABORTs to M_ERROR_TERM so that program terminates
127 but does not produce a dump.
128 - Allow wild-card matches in bsr for Client name, and Job.
129 - Change OflineOnUnmount=no as default.
130 - Fixed improper printing of filenames containing a space in bls.c
131 Thanks to Carlos for reporting this.
134 2002-07-26 Release 1.23a
135 - Fix segmentation fault is FD status.
136 - Turn off TRANSACTIONs for SQLite.
138 2002-07-23 Release 1.23
140 - Updated Bacula to handle some minor differences in MySQL 4.0.2
141 (still works with older MySQLs).
142 - Updated MySQL documentation to correct some minor errors.
143 - Added kernstodo to CVS
144 - Fixed create_mysql_database, which I recently accidently broke.
145 - Disallow zero length volume names in Console program.
146 - Create alter_mysql_tables and alter_sqlite_tables for conversion
147 from 1.22 table format to 1.23 table format.
150 - Investigation of SQLite performace problems reported by Chuck.
153 - made root@localhost the default email address because many smtp
154 servers reject root but accept root@localhost
155 - Added an autochangers chapter to the manual.
156 - Documented most of the new features in 1.23
157 - Modified the SQLite interface code to start a transaction at the
158 beginning of a job and commit it at the end of the job. It
159 also commits it after 10000 changes. Hopefully this will
161 - Set the default cache pages from 2000 to 10000 for SQLite (i.e.
162 about 15Megs of memory) hoping to improve performance.
163 - Terminate last filename referenced in FD prior to copy to
164 avoid race problem with multiple threads and no locking.
165 - Enhanced the status output to include the JobType
166 - Print an error message if the email program terminates in error.
167 - If your machine has an MTUNLOCK, do it before doing an OFFLINE to
168 ensure that the door is unlocked.
169 - Added code to stored/append.c to spool attributes. This is in
170 a testing stage and must be explicitly enabled.
171 - Added a no_attributes variable to stored/append.c that prevents
172 the attributes from being sent to the Director. As yet, no way
174 - Modified SQLite code so that after 10000 updates any transaction
175 is committed, then restarted. This keeps it from using too much
177 - Set the default cache size to 10000 pages (previously 2000).
178 - Fixed a segmentation fault on Sun due to no default value for
180 - Added the same indexes to SQLite that I exist in MySQL. This
181 VASTLY reduces CPU usage for lots of inserts.
182 - Added spooling to bnet_send().
185 - The following two changes were prompted by questions/suggestions
187 - If you have "AlwaysOpen = no" in your SD Device
188 resource, Bacula will free() the drive when it
189 is finished with the Job.
190 - If you have "Offline On Unmount = yes", in your
191 SD Device resource, Bacula will offline (or eject)
192 the tape prior to freeing it.
193 - Added Maximum Open Wait to allow open() to wait if drive is busy.
194 - Added RunBeforeJob and RunAfterJob records to Job records.
195 This permits running an external program with the following editing
208 - Added autochanger support to devices.c
209 - Allow user to change Slot in the Volume record.
210 - Implemented code in lib to run an external program
212 - Implemented a changer script for mtx.
213 - Currently the changer commands used are:
214 loaded -- returns number of slot loaded or 0
215 load -- loads a specified slot
216 unload -- unloads the device (returns casette to slot)
217 - Other changer commands defined but not yet used:
218 list -- returns list of slots containing a cassette
219 slots -- returns total number of slots
220 - Implemented ChangerCommand, specified in the SD Device
221 resource, permits editing of:
223 %a = archive device name
224 %c = changer device name
231 - Implemented MaximumChangerWait default 120 seconds. It is
232 specified in the SD Device resource.
235 - Moved techlogs from main directory to be subdirectory of doc
236 - Added code for strerror_r, and detection of gethostbyname_r().
237 - The protocol between the Director and the SD has changed.
238 - Major rework of SD tape mounting to prepare for Changer commands.
239 - Separated Update Media record and Create JobMedia record. These
240 are done from the SD by calling the Director. Need separate Create
241 JobMedia so that when a Job spans a volume, all other Jobs writing
242 the same volume will also have JobMedia records created.
243 - Added message to user indicating selection aborted if he enters .
244 to a Console selection request.
245 - Create a jobstatus_to_ascii() routine for use in status commands.
246 This makes a single routine from three separate pieces of code.
247 Updated the code to properly handle more (all) termination statuses.
248 - Tried to fix the gnome-console to handle history a bit better. There
249 are still some problems with focus not being properly set to the edit
250 box after history replacement.
251 - Removed the shutdown() from bnet_close() hoping to fix Console termination
252 errors that are occassionally seen -- no luck.
253 - Moved add_str() to lib/util and renamed it add_str_to_pool_mem() so that
254 it can be used to edit Job termination codes and Changer command codes.
255 - Reworked how the SD mounts tapes (in device.c) so that control passes through
256 only a single routine. The logic is much simpler than previously, and now
257 adding AutoChanger code is straight forward.
258 - Made SD tape mounting much more fault tolerant -- more cases retry instead
259 of terminating the Job.
260 - Wrote code to edit_device_codes() for Changer commands. Not yet fully
262 - Added a ChangerDevice directive to the Device resource. Still need to add
266 - This documents what I did while on vacation.
267 - A fair amount of documentation.
268 - Implemented Verify Volume to Catalog (needs renaming)
269 - Modified the database to include new MarkId field as
270 well as Counters. Database level is incremented from 1 to 2.
271 - Added first cut of managing autochangers by implementing Slot in DB.
272 - Fixed a good number of M_ERROR messages to be M_FATAL where appropriate.
273 Also converted a number of Emsg() to Jmsg() permitting better Job error
275 - First cut at implementing a general packet passing mechanism for bsock
276 to replace printf and sscanf for passing data.
277 - Made make_xxx_tables and drop_xxx_tables and create_xxx_database
278 for bdb as well as sqlite. With this each database has the
279 same set of scripts (with the exception that MySQL has grant_privileges).
280 - Modified Makefile to only install the database scripts for the
281 database that you are using.
282 - Updated the pdf script to include all the html files.
283 - Did quite a lot of documentation.
284 - Made Bacula compile correctly with DEBUG turned off.
285 - Implemented Pmsg() macros that permit using the debug print
286 routines even with DEBUG off.
287 - Updated job_cancelled() macro to handle JS_FatalError.
288 - Changed db_find_last_full_verify() to db_find_last_jobid(). This
289 permits working with Verify Volume to Catalog.
290 - Removed TRANSACTION code from incrementing NextId for SQLite.
291 - Implemented quick and dirty (not fully functional code) so that
292 console program does not die if ctl-Z is entered.
293 - Cleaned up backup.c a bit adding a bail_out goto to ensure proper
294 handling of errors with minimum code.
295 - Added passing Slot back and forth to Storage daemon with Volume info.
296 - Implemented Slot in Media record in DB.
297 - Implemented first cut of Counter resource in dird_conf.c. A counter
298 resource is part of the Pool resource.
299 - Implemented necessary database record. However, the resource doesn't
300 yet create a DB record.
301 - Implemented onefs (One File System) and recurse options on Include
303 - Implemented autopruning of Verify and Restore Jobs.
304 - Did a better job of calculating thread_concurrency() for Sun systems.
305 This permits better multi-threading allowing all the threads to run
307 - Implemented a wait_for_storage_daemon_termination(), which is used by
308 backup and verify volume.
309 - Clarified a number of UA prompts, and add feedback where certain commands
310 completed but printed nothing. (More work to be done here).
311 - Added a pile of new code to implement Verify Volume to Catalog. It is sort
312 of a hybrid of "restore" and "verify" in that it actually reads the tape,
313 then compares it to the catalog. Need Verify Volume to Client.
314 - Added a good number of checks for job_cancelled() this should permit
315 quicker and more reliable cancelling of jobs.
316 - Fixed one bug in restore where I used ofile instead of lname, which means
317 that if the lname was too long, the memory was not properly reallocated.
318 - Cleaned up find_one.c in findlib quite a bit.
319 - Link smtp static so that it works even if the libraries are messed up.
320 - If mail host is not found, retry with local host in smtp.
321 - Added slot and stream to the bootstrap record processing.
322 - Do offline on tape cartrige for unmount command. This can be turned off
323 by the user in the config file. OffLineOnUnmount in Device resource.
324 - Implemented AutoChanger = yes/no in Device resource.
327 2002-07-07 Release 1.22
328 - All the basic Restore code to handle the boostrap file is
329 now implemented with the exception of the Console Restore command.
330 - Retained compatibility with previous Restore providing no
331 bootstrap file is specified. However, the old code (JobId based)
332 will go away in a future release.
333 - Fixed a number of segmentation faults in the Console program due
334 to printing of NULL pointers -- thanks to Chuck and his Sun for
335 finding and reporting them -- mostly in ua_output.c.
338 - Null pointers now are printed as *None* if NPRT() is used.
339 - At the request of Phil, all resources are now chained in in the
340 order they appear in the config file.
341 - Implement Bootstrap record in the Director's config file, which
342 allows you to specify a predefined bootstrap file for Restore Jobs.
343 - Allow Bootstrap on the Restore record. This is deprecated.
344 - Implemented code to pass the Bootstrap file, if defined, to the
345 File daemon, then from the File daemon to the Storage daemon.
346 - Added ability to set Bootstrap file in the Console when running a Restore.
347 - Allow scan_error() routine to be passed to lex_open_file(). This permits
348 using lex in the Storage daemon without worrying that it will ABORT on
349 a syntax error. More work is needed to direct the error messages correctly.
350 - Improved error messages a bit when config syntax errors are found.
351 - Tested and corrected some errors in match_bsr.c
352 - Removed askdir.c from bls and bextract by defining dummy entry points.
353 - bextract now has bootstrap pretty well integrated.
354 - Changed bextract ABORTs into FATAL and exit(1) or ERROR_TERMINATE.
356 - Eliminated at least one lld and replaced it by edit_uint64()
357 - Eliminated a few more _PROTO()s.
358 - Corrected a problem with the SQL for in query.sql for
359 Listing Volumes to Restore All Files
362 - Additional documentation.
363 - Reduce the time the jcr mutex is locked in lib/jcr.c
364 - More null pointer printing fixes in lib/parse_conf.c (debug output only).
365 - Added daemon filename to Kaboom message so I know what daemon died.
366 - Fix big bad bug introduced in watchdog.c last update that caused
367 a segmentation violation (forgot to check for NULL pointer).
368 - Add a bit more info to bad returns from Stored when starting
373 - Fixed backup scanning forgot one T_STRING -> T_UNQUOTED_STRING
374 - changed all rwlock_t to brwlock_t to avoid conflicts with
376 - Added NPRT() macro to allow printing of NULL pointers, which
377 segment fault on Solaris.
378 - Cast printing of pid_t to int for Solaris compiler.
381 - Added expect argment to lex_get_token().
382 - Added tree.c and tree.h to lib directory.
385 - Improvements to the bootstrap compiler
386 - Implemented first cut of bootstrap code in the Storage daemon
387 - Modified the authentication code to be more explicit during
389 - Added a few more debug message numbers with more arguments (Dmsg10, ...)
390 - Added more and more precise error messages when authentication fails.
391 - Implemented new "expect" codes in the lexical scanner that allows
392 the caller to specify what he wants.
393 - Added integer, positive integer, 64 bit integer, and integer ranges,
394 and name scanning to lex.
395 - Implemented new lex code in parse_conf.c, this reduces significantly
397 - Hopefully fixed a watchdog race bug that caused the watchdog to time
398 out a line after 1 hour rather than 6 days.
401 - Implemented a Bootstrap file parser and matcher.
402 - Implemented first cut of bootstrap code in bextract
403 - Started clarifying different termination codes.
404 - Added M_ERROR_TERM to immediately terminate the daemon -- no dump.
405 Also changed a few termination codes as appropriate.
406 - Fixed create_jobmedia_record() to include all the fields such as
407 StartFile/EndFile, StartBlock/EndBlock.
408 - Print user friendly message when query mode ends.
409 - Fixed ls style print routines (bextract, bls, restore) to check
410 buffer size, to print the link if any, and to used edit_uint64()
412 - Moved scan_to_eol() and s_err() to lex.c to avoid dragging in
413 parse_conf.c for new bsr scanning code.
414 - New files: bsr.h, parse_bsr.c and match_bsr.c. parse_bsr.c parses
415 a Bootstrap file, and match_bsr.c matches a bsr against a tape.
416 - use strcasecmp() in several places instead of lcase().
417 - Add first cut of bootstrap to bextract.
418 - Added File Size limit -- writes EOF after limit exeeded.
420 2002-06-12 Release 1.21
421 - Fixed several problems with filenames being truncated if
422 they contain spaces. Thanks to the user that reported this.
423 - N.B. To get the new queries, after the "make" and
424 "make install" you must explicitly replace the
425 existing query.sql by query.sql.new. query.sql is a
426 user configuration file, so it is not overwritten.
427 - Added GZIP compression of Included files.
428 - Added additional fields to tape SOS record permitting better
429 recovery with no database.
430 - Be sure to remove any !terminate statements you may have
431 in your config files.
432 - MUST UPDATE ALL DAEMONS due to protocol change to handle new
436 - Updated examples directory with my most recent config files.
437 - Modified the M_TERM meaning to mean that Bacula has
438 terminated in error without producing a dump. Previously,
439 it meant that Bacula terminate (with or without error).
440 You should remove any !terminate from your messages
442 - Changed the order of the libraries in the link so that
443 tcp wrappers link properly. Thanks Phil for reporting this.
444 - A user reported that filenames containing spaces were truncated
445 in bextract. This was indeed the case. They were also truncated
446 in Restore as well as in Verify. They are, hopefully, all fixed
448 - Made a few error conditions in Verify non-fatal.
449 - Modified the Console "query" command to permit multiple SQL
450 statements per command.
451 - Implemented three new "query" options:
452 List last 10 Full Backups for a Client
453 List Volumes used by selected JobId
454 List Volumes to Restore All Files
455 To use them, simply type "query" to the Console program, and
456 select the one you want.
457 - Modified bextract to default to extracting all files (i.e. /).
458 - Cleaned up the code in bextract a bit.
461 - Improve Verify command to include files examined.
462 - Eliminate fcntl() locking of the console file and replaced
463 it with a pthreads mutex.
464 - Note Director - SD protocol is changed to handle new tape
465 information (Fileset, JobType, JobLevel).
466 - Create config.out that contains a summary of ./configure
467 to see what you previously configured: "cat config.out"
468 - Implemented GZIP compression. Added addition syntax to
469 Include { } resource to permit setting of any GZIP compression
476 Level 1 is minimum compression and level 9 is maximum. Using just
477 GZIP gives the default (level 6).
478 - Enhanced the tape format to include the unique Job name, FileSetName,
479 JobType, and JobLevel in the Start/End of Session records. The code
480 detects that tape level difference and acts accordingly. You can
481 add data in the new format to old tapes.
482 - Fixed an incorrect display message in the prune command.
483 - Began implementation of Verify Volume and Verify Data.
484 - Cleaned up File daemon restore.c a bit ensuring that termination
485 cleanup is done and all possible Emsgs are converted to Jmsgs.
486 - Modify bls.c to use common setup routines. This reduced the big
487 code duplication that creeped in when I added different listing
488 options. Also, changing tapes is now handled uniformily in a subroutine.
491 2002-05-27 Release 1.20
492 - Started documenting Catalog Pruning and Recycling.
493 Added catmaintenance.html and recycling.html
494 - Fixed the query command bug.
495 - Implemented PID files to prevent two copies of Bacula
496 from running at the same time. Be sure you --with-pid-dir
497 points to a working directory.
498 - Modified ASSERT() to cause a segmentation violation. This
500 - Worked on gnome-console. It paints better, it tells you if it
501 is ready to accept a command or processing one, and it is
502 almost entirely GTK+ (rather than GNOME, I'm removing GNOME
504 - Limit to 100 the number of tape labeling errors in a single Job.
505 - Add some additional ASSERT()s to the database routines. I don't
506 like ASSERTs but they do catch bugs.
507 - Tested and debugged recycling of Volumes. Needed to change
508 the Director-SD protocol slightly.
509 - Removed the experimental SIGHUP in the Director as it is a
510 potential source of errors.
511 - Added Level, Pool, Messages, and Storage keyword/value scanning
512 to the Schedule Run record.
513 - Improved printing of Schedule resources with "show schedules"
514 - Do not autoprune Jobs/Files if the Job errs.
515 - Updated newvol() to pass back the updated Media record.
516 - Fixed the "update pool" command, which was broken during a much
517 earlier code reorganization.
518 - Improved a few of the pruning messages.
519 - Removed readline inclusions from gnome-console (hang over from console).
520 - Make Jmsg use daemon message handler if no message handler is defined.
521 This is always the case in the SD and FD.
522 - Started removing __PROTO(). With C++ prototypes are manditory, so why
523 keep around legacy code.
524 - Added a good deal of message internationalization -- more to be done.
525 - Move cached Path into mdb structure and use POOLMEM.
526 - Fix verify bug introduced last update causing incorrect diffs
527 by turning off autopruning.
528 - Started adding code to distinguish Errors from Fatal Errors.
529 - Errors are now counted in message.c for a Job.
530 - More POOLMEM cleanups.
531 - Implemented Automatic pruning.
532 - Implemented Automatic recycling of Volumes.
533 - Added PruneJobs/Files/Volumes=yes or no to Job resource. If set,
534 it forces the specified pruning.
535 - Modified rwlock to accept multiple nested write lock
537 - Modified the cats directory to use the new rwlock mechanism
538 in place of P() and V().
539 - Defined db_lock(mdb) and db_unlock(mdb). They are in effect
541 - Add CVS Id's to most files.
542 - Made first cut at AutoPrune
543 - Added new autoprune file that is called at the end of
544 each Job. It then decides when and what to prune and
545 calls the UA prune routines.
546 - Modified Run (in Schedule resource) to permit overrides of
547 Level, Pool, Storage, and Messages. (not tested).
548 - Added more POOLMEM in place of char.
549 - Implemented daemon pid files. This prevents multiple
550 daemons from running simultaneously. You can run multiple
551 daemons if they listen on different ports.
552 - Documented the Schedule resource a bit better.
553 - Began gently adding a POOLMEM type (perviously void).
554 For the moment it is a #define to char, but long term
555 it should be its own typedef.
556 - Corrected a bit of spacing on the status bar of gnome-console
557 - Added Admin and Archive Job types.
558 - Implemented multiple Messages resources. Each daemon has
559 its own message resource, which defaults if not defined.
560 Jobs may now have different message handlers.
561 - Cleaned up a bit of duplicate code in backup, verify, and
562 restore by creating appropriate subroutines in job.c
563 - Added Type, Client, FileSet, and Level resource record
564 definitions to the Director. These can be used in place
565 of the Backup = ..., Verify = ..., ... commands. This needs
567 - Corrected an incorrect message in the prune code and added
568 the number of Files pruned in the message.
569 - Corrected several paint problems with gnome-console.
570 - Added a bit of printout in signal handler during traceback.
571 - Cleaned up most of sm_check() to be turned on/off by define
574 2002-05-10 Release 1.19
575 - Allow the user to select a new period for pruning.
576 - Lots of additions to the manual -- prune and purge
578 - Applied Phil's configure.in fix for --prefix, ...
579 - Fixed bug found by Phil (patch supplied) in updating
580 MD5 signatures (revert to 32 bit FileId, move "static"
581 variables into JCR) (catreq.c fd-cmds.c).
582 - Reverted to using INTEGER for FileId in make_sql_tables
583 due to a bug in MySQL.
584 - Change editing code to %d for FileId.
585 - Remove sqlite in make distclean in cats directory.
586 - Remove console.conf in console during make distclean.
587 - Remove gnome-console.conf during make distclean.
588 - Remove bacula-dir.conf during make distclean.
589 - Set default level when using Console if none specified.
590 Bug reported by Phil.
591 - A simple . command from Console is ignored.
592 - Change program named from filed to bacual-fd in winmain.cpp
593 - Change default config file for Win32 in winmain.cpp
594 - Free namebuf on early return from find_one.c. Bug reported by Phil.
595 - Modify testfind.c to dump orphaned buffers.
596 - Removed terabytes from parse_conf.c because of problems with
598 - Turn off gnome options in gnome-console by constructing empty argv.
599 - Fixes to Verify when only MD5 differs.
600 - Insert 0 for MD5 as default rather than space.
601 - Allow .messages "transparent" command while reading input
603 - In dird/verify.c ensure that correct filename is printed if only
604 the MD5 differs. Minor reindenting caused large diff.
605 - Delete unused code from backup.c
606 - In filed/verify.c ensure that same algorithm as backup.c is used
607 to pass back MD5 signatures -- especially for directories and files
608 that cannot be read. Change dummy filename from X to *MD5-id*.
609 This dummy value should never be printed.
610 - Make gnome-console poll Director every 5 seconds for output.
611 This means that queued up messages are displayed at reasonable
612 intervals. Delete some unused code hanging around from the tty
614 - Begin implementation of prune commands.
615 - Add command line history to gnome-console. Not yet saved across sessions.
616 - Fixed some broken URLs in the manual.
618 - Wrote first cut of "prune files" and "prune jobs".
619 - Added command line history to gnome-console 2500 lines max.
620 - Widened store_time() and associated variables to 64 bits using
621 new btime_t definition.
622 - Removed GNOME about box and replaced it with
623 a somewhat crude Gtk+ about box in the gnome-console.
624 - Widened StartDay in the Job DB record to be 64 bits.
625 - Changed edit_uint_ to edit_uint64_ everywhere. Much more
626 descriptive of what is done.
627 - Removed most llds and replaced them with %s and edit_uint64.
628 This makes the code a bit easier to read for beginners.
629 - Added a btime_t typedef which is 64 bits wide.
630 - Added most of the code needed to do Purge and Prune of
631 database. Not yet tested. Please do not use.
632 - Additional config options for Console.
633 - Started adding code for Automatic Recycling of Volumes.
634 - Allow arbitrary length filenames in Verify code.
635 - Fix incorrect filename in Verify code.
636 - Significant enhancement to number scanning in config parser.
637 - Requires initializing MySQL tables, or applying cats/alter.sql
638 to modify Media table.
639 - Modified Makefile to printer a much more visible
640 message if the make ends in error.
641 - Added the Purge value to the VolStatus in the Media table.
642 This value is set if the Volume is purged.
643 - Enhanced the db_delete_media_record() routine to delete
644 all associated records in the database.
645 - Modified Console to always write to the variable "output"
646 rather than stdout. This will permit directing output to a file.
647 - Enhanced the Console configuration file to have a Console
648 resource. This will allow us to add an rcfile and history file.
649 - Modified Find_next_vol in catreq.c to search for "Recycle"
650 volumes if there are none marked Append. Also made Get_Vol_info
651 return the VolStatus to the Storage daemon.
652 - Allow upper/lower case match on job level names.
653 - Added another warning message to the Console "delete media" command.
654 - Corrected a number of FileId types from uint64_t to FileId_t in
656 - In ua server close database before freeing JCR (because pointer is
657 kept in ua and jcr structures).
658 - parse all numbers as doubles. Do lots of checking for valid number
659 formats. Allow numbers in scientific form (e.g. 1.5e+10).
660 - Remove terabyte modifier as it doesn't work in some compilers.
661 - Fix bug in handling some modifiers.
662 - Added all necessary code for Recycle to Storage daemon. A Volume
663 marked Recycle will now be overwritten.
664 - Filled out the prune command a bit and did some testing.
665 - Make console accept redirected input.
666 - Altered the Table definitions to include Recycle,
667 FileRetention, JobRetention, and AutoPrune.
668 - Widened StartDay to 64 bits.
669 - Use JobId_t in more places.
670 - Added the new table fields to the database record definitions.
671 - Changed Recycle from string to a binary quantity.
672 - Added a Version table with a VersionId to detect.
673 future changes in the database. This should prevent
674 a Bacula from working with a database that is not in sync.
675 - Modify Console to accept input from a file. This will permit
676 the .read command and allow reading a .rc file.
677 - Added new retention and recycle variables to the Director's configuration.
678 - The UA subroutines or commands can now be called from core
679 code because the output routines detect the absence of a
680 UA socket and direct output to the Job.
681 - Added a verbose flage to the ua packet to permit reduction of
682 output while running a UA command (prune) from a Job.
683 - Did a fair amount of work on the prune command. Prune Volume now works.
684 - Purge Volume now works.
685 - Made last changes for integrating prune and purge commands.
686 - Add -ltermcap to CONS_LIBS when readline is configured.
687 More work to be done to search for termcap.
688 - Added cats/drop_sqlite_tables.in, which will delete the SQLite database.
689 - Got CWEB working so that we can compile filesys.w and immortal.w
690 - Modified depkgs to include cweb.
691 - Note, CWEB is not yet used by the core Bacula code.
692 - Made cats/alter.sql, which alters an old database to bring it
693 up to the new format. This only works with MySQL since SQLite does
694 not have the ALTER SQL command.
695 - Changed the old StartDay field in the db to be JobTDate, which is
696 the latest time/date in widened Unix time format that the Job ran.
697 This value is used when doing pruning.
698 - Added code in cats/sql.c to verify that the database internal version
699 corresponds to the db version compiled in Bacula. It is set to 1 currently.
700 - Lots of changes to cats to bring the SQL up to date with the new
701 retention period changes.
702 - Added Console command code to permit changing a Volume's retention period.
703 - Removed old code that used date_encode() and replaced it with widened
705 - Started modifying Message resource scanner so that we can have multiple
706 message resources. Much more work to be done.
707 - Moved scanning for time into new library routine string_to_btime().
709 2002-04-22 Release 1.18
710 - Applied Phil's configure.in fix for --prefix, ...
711 - Fixed bug found by Phil (patch supplied) in updating
712 MD5 signatures (revert to 32 bit FileId, move "static"
713 variables into JCR) (catreq.c fd-cmds.c).
714 - Reverted to using INTEGER for FileId in make_sql_tables
715 due to a bug in MySQL.
716 - Change editing code to %d for FileId.
717 - Remove sqlite in make distclean in cats directory.
718 - Remove console.conf in console during make distclean
719 - Remove gnome-console.conf during make distclean
720 - Remove bacula-dir.conf during make distclean
721 - Set default level when using Console if none specified.
722 Bug reported by Phil.
723 - A simple . command from Console is ignored.
724 - Change program named from filed to bacual-fd in winmain.cpp
725 - Change default config file for Win32 in winmain.cpp
726 - Free namebuf on early return from find_one.c. Bug reported by
728 - Modify testfind.c to dump orphaned buffers.
729 - Removed terabytes from parse_conf.c because of problems with
731 - Turn off gnome options in gnome-console by constructing empty
734 2002-04-18 Release 1.17 Kern Sibbald
735 - Ensure that platforms Makefiles are called for clean
737 - Hide a lot of Makefile messages with @
738 - Applied Phil's configure.in patch. Thanks.
739 - Doc updates, many to clarify points brought up by Phil.
740 - Applied Phil's make_mysql_tables.in patch. Thanks.
741 - Made authenticate.c in dird test bnet_send status.
742 - Make label a bit more friendly with extra info message.
743 - Add level 200 to debug info in run command.
744 - Remove old code from findlib/testfind.c so that it compiles.
745 - Add two minute max wait to cram-md5 authentication. Hopefully,
746 this will catch non-responding WinNT daemons.
747 - Allow time and size modifiers to be upper or lower case.
748 - Turn off old CYGWIN patch for pthread_cond_timedwait() bug that
749 now causes File daemon hangs on WinNT.
750 - Fix mount messages for restore. Previous updates to save
751 broke the restore code.
752 - By default write fixed block sizes rather than variable block
753 sizes. My Sony DAT simply does not work (reread failures) with
754 variable block sizes.
755 - Data split across tapes was not being correctly restored
756 (at least on DAT tapes).
757 - Implement MaximumBlockSize and MinumBlockSize statements in
758 Storage daemon so user can specify variable block sizes if
760 - Return error if block checksum error on read (previously
762 - Fixed some error messages in bls, and in some cases exit(1)
763 rather than ABORT. There remain ABORTs to be examined.
764 - Made a local copy of tcpd.h and corrected the function
765 prototype problem for C++.
767 2002-04-14 First public release 1.16 Kern Sibbald
768 - Many intervening changes/updates.
770 2001-09-29 Release 1.0 Kern Sibbald
771 - Fixes to problems found at John's
773 - See techlogs/kes25Sep01 for details
775 2001-09-25 Release 1.0 Kern Sibbald
776 - Helped John install at his site.
777 He is backing up one Linux machine and
780 2001-mm-dd Many releases
781 - Released internally.
783 2000-04-09 Release 0.4 Kern Sibbald
784 - Added a lot of Director configuration code. In
785 part (a small part), the Director now uses the
786 bacula.conf file to know what to do. There still
788 - The file search code is now integrated into the
789 MySQL database routines, and Bacula is now hooked
790 into the MySQL database (if so configured). Thus
791 all the database records are being created, though
792 there still remains some work in getting all the
793 details into the records (such as the Storage
795 - I've defined how Volume pools work (see manual).
796 - I've defined error message handling though no code
798 - The following resources and records are implemented
799 in the Director configuration file (bacula.conf):
802 Name (passed to Storage daemon)
805 Password (not yet used)
807 Name, Address, Port, Password, MediaType
811 Backup (only one permitted)
814 Schedule, Messages, Pool (not used)
817 Include (options ignored)
823 Debug, syslog, mail, append (not used)
826 Address, Port, Password (not used)
829 PoolType, MediaType (not used)
831 - Added Storage configuration routines.
833 Name, password (verified against those sent by Director)
835 Name, Address, Port (address, port must correspond to Director's values)
838 Name, MediaType (must correspond to those sent by Director)
839 Archive Device (defines device name)
842 2000-03-10 Release 0.3 Kern Sibbald
843 - Implemented new base64 encoding for attributes.
844 This eliminates some of the error messages in the
845 sprintfs on the Solaris due to different stat() sizes.
846 - Implemented the first cut of the file search routines for
847 the File daemon. The exclusion lists work including wild
848 cards. There is a lot of work to be done, but the basic
849 structure is now in place (wild cards do not yet work for
851 - Completed writing the memory pool code. Now I must
852 implement it in the daemons.
853 - Modified the bacula start/stop script so that it has a
854 better chance of working on SGI and Solaris.
855 - The catalog code has not been converted to the new file
858 2000-03-06 Release 0.2 Kern Sibbald
859 - Integrated John's fixes.
860 - Made Makefiles self configuring when Makefile.in is changed.
861 - Added a runit script in the top level that runs bacula
862 - Added a "bacula" script in the top level directory that
863 starts and stops the File daemon and the Storage daemon.
865 2000-03-03 Release 0.1 Kern Sibbald
866 - Basic Director, File, and Storage daemons.
867 Standalone Catalog services using MySQL
