51 ================== Warning !!!!!! ==========================
53 The new pruning algorithm will not allow pruning of jobs that are essential to
54 restore since the last Full backup. This is, of course, correct and desirable,
55 but it is different from older Bacula versions that could inappropriately
56 prune jobs. Pruning of volumes is not affected.
60 To build Bat, you need Qt4 version 4.6.2. If you build with any other
61 version it is likely not to work. If you do not have version 4.6.2, on
62 your system, you can download the Bacula depkgs_qt version 16Dec10.
64 New Catalog format in version 5.2.0
65 -----------------------------------
66 This release of Bacula uses a new catalog format. We provide a set of
67 scripts that permit to convert a 5.0.x (version 12) catalog to 5.2.0 (version
68 14). The Bacula project rpm spec files have been modified to
69 detect the database change and do the upgrade for you. We strongly
70 recommend that you save a copy of your existing database before upgrading
73 The simplest way to upgrade the database assuming you are building from
74 source (i.e. manually):
75 1. Stop any current version of Bacula from running.
76 2. Save a copy of your existing database.
77 3. Configure, build, and install the 5.2.0 version of Bacula
78 Note the new ./configure options in the manuals see the link
79 at the bottom of this file.
80 4. cd <your-scripts-installation-directory>
81 5. ./update_bacula_tables
82 6. If you have multiple catalogs, edit the update_bacula_tables
83 script and put the name of another database, and then
84 execute the script again. Repeat this until all Bacula
85 catalogs have been updated.
86 7. Start the new Bacula. If everything worked, it should
87 not print any error messages.
89 If you start from scratch, you don't need to run the update_bacula_tables
90 script because the create_bacula_tables script automatically creates the new
91 table format. However, if you are using a version of Bacula older than 5.0.0
92 (e.g. 3.0.3) then you need to run the update_bacula_tables script that will
93 be found in the <bacula>/src/cats directory after you run the ./configure
94 command. As mentioned above, before running this script, please backup your
95 catalog database, and when you do running it, be sure shutdown Bacula and be
96 aware that running the script can take some time depending on your database
99 ================================================================
103 Speed and Memory Usage Enhancements:
104 - Implement LZO compression algorithm (need lzo2 headers to activate this option)
105 - New Pruning algoritm -- safer and faster
106 - Use of PostgreSQL cursor when doing large queries, should reduce the
107 memory usage during restore and accurate backups.
108 - limit command in some list commands
109 - Bacula Virtual File System for fast catalog access
110 - Faster crc32 algorithm
112 Security Enhancements:

117 - Improvements in ACL and xattr handling on additional platforms:
118 AIX, Darwind, FreeBSD, HPUX, IRIX, Solaris, Tru64
119 - Tray monitor for Windows
120 - New SQL backend and ./configure that permits building multiple catalog
121 backends in one build, and has the main Bacula core code totally independent
122 of the SQL backend, which should simplify packaging (only the
123 libbacsql.so/dll needs to be changed to switch from one database backend
124 to another (e.g. MySQL to PostgreSQL).
125 - Indent lsmark during restore
126 - Disable batch insert config item
127 - Director selection option in bconsole
128 - restorejob command in bconsole

131 work correctly and the brestore panel provides the same functionality
132 - Improved hash table for hard links
133 - Additional script variable editing such as %b (JobBytes), %F (JobFiles)
134 and %h (Client Address)
137 - Includes better handling for Windows repares points, mount points, and
139 - New database format
140 - Many new plugin API features
141 - Improved memory handling for restores
142 - Significant stability enhancements to bat
143 - xattr/ACL restore failure are now printed as Warning
144 - A few path name length limits in Windows have been removed.
147 ===========================================================================
149 The 5.0.3 version is significant bug fix update to version 5.0.2.
150 It includes new code and some new features.
151 There is no database change since prior versions of 5.0.
153 Note, if you are running 5.0.0, read the 5.0.1 and 5.0.2 release notes below in
154 the 5.0.1 release section.
159 As always, both the Director and Storage daemon must be upgraded at
162 Older 5.0.x and 3.0.x File Daemons are compatible with the 5.0.3
163 Director and Storage daemons. There should be no need to upgrade older File
166 Changes and New Features:
167 - If a VSS (Windows) snapshot fails, the whole Job is failed, previously
168 it printed a warning message and continued.
169 - New editing codes %b = Job Bytes and %f = Job Files for runscripts
170 - Any non-Bacula project plugins (i.e. third party plugins)
171 must be upgraded to specify AGPLv3 in place of the GPLv2 used previously
172 for the PLUGIN_LICENSE.
173 - The bat Media page text columns can be sorted by clicking on the column.
174 - If possible, the SD will automatically update the catalog Volume size if
175 it does not match the Volume size. The mismatch between the Volume sizes
176 typically occurs when the FD has a comm line drop or the FD crashes.

273 =============================================================================
276 ============= Release 5.0.1 ========================
278 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOTE FOR 5.0.0 USERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
279 The Allow Duplicate Jobs directive has been significantly
280 reworked, and the default value has changed. See below.
282 Truncate On Purge has been totally rewritten. See the new
283 features section of the manual.
285 When Volume Poll Interval is set in the SD DEVICE configuration,
286 (default 5 mins), after a certain number of polling tries (approx
287 10) polling will stop and the operator will be asked to
288 resolve the problem. Previously there was no limit, and an
289 error message could be produced at each poll attempt.
290 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
294 - We believe that we have resolved most of the problems
295 concerning canceled or failed jobs being "stuck" in the
296 Director. There is one outstanding problem in the SD when
297 canceling jobs that we will fix in the next major release.
298 If you see jobs that seem to be stuck, in general issuing
299 a cancel command in bconsole should now make them go away.
302 - The default for "Allow Duplicate Jobs" has been changed from
303 no to yes. If you use this directive, please check your
304 conf file, and note the next two items !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
305 - AllowHigherDuplicates disabled. It did not work as documented
307 - New directive "CancelLowerLevelDuplicates" See New Features
308 section in the manual.
309 - Truncate on Purge rewritten. See New Features section in the manual.

347 - Fix #1466 about Bogus pruning message
350 1. The default query.sql file is now, except for some comments, empty.
351 The old file, which we no longer support (it is impossible or difficult to
352 make it work on every backend, and the queries are mostly contributed) can
353 be found in <bacula-source>/examples/sample-query.sql. The sample file is
354 not installed by the Makefiles
356 2. When you install the mtx-changer script, you must also install
357 mtx-changer.conf if it does not exist. This new file (mtx-changer.conf) is
358 required for mtx-changer to work, but it is a user configurable file, so on
359 any update, any existing file should not be overwritten.
361 3. Bat should be built on every platform that is capabable of running Qt.
362 However, the Qt code is changing rather quickly and is not always
363 compatible from version to version. We have built and verified bat on Qt
364 4.3.4. We strongly recommend that you do not build and distribute bat with
365 any other version of Qt unless you personally test it. To build against Qt
366 4.3.4, download the depkgs-qt package from the Bacula Source Forge download
367 location, read the README file and follow the instructions.
369 If you are building for Bacula version 5.0.0, please ensure that you do not
370 have qmake-qt4 loaded on your system. If you do, either remove it or
371 rename it before trying to build bat. If you do not, bat will probably be
372 built using the shared objects on your system. For Bacula 5.0.1 and later,
373 this problem (bug) does not exist.
375 depkgs-qt does not install Qt on your system, nor does it interfere with
376 you having any other version of Qt installed on your system. Once you
377 build bat with depkgs-qt, it should *not* use the Qt shared objects, but
378 rather they will be linked into the program. After fully installing bat
379 (make install), you can run "ldd bat" to see what shared objects it will
380 use. If any Qt shared objects are referenced, something has gone wrong.
382 4. Unless absolutely necessary, we recommend that you do not define any
383 special library environment variables that apply to the ./configure -- for
384 example: LIBDIR=/... ./configure <your-options> is strongly discouraged.
385 Doing so, could potentially cause Bacula to be linked against the wrong
388 5. The Bacula project strongly recommends that you install Bacula into a
389 single directory, with a few minor exceptions such as the MySQL or
390 PostgreSQL databases. Preferrably this should be /opt/bacula. The full
394 # Recommended configure script for Bacula
397 CFLAGS="-g -O2 -Wall" \
399 --sbindir=${prefix}/bin \
400 --sysconfdir=${prefix}/etc \
401 --docdir=${prefix}/html \
402 --htmldir=${prefix}/html \
403 --with-working-dir=${prefix}/working \
404 --with-pid-dir=${prefix}/working \
405 --with-subsys-dir=${prefix}/working \
406 --with-scriptdir=${prefix}/scripts \
407 --with-plugindir=${prefix}/plugins \
408 --libdir=${prefix}/lib \
409 --enable-smartalloc \
410 --enable-tray-monitor \
413 --with-dump-email=${email} \
414 --with-job-email=${email} \
415 --with-smtp-host=localhost \
418 Obviously, the email, and some of the minor options (mysql, postgresql,
419 ...) can be changed to suit your distribution, but the directory names
420 defined above are strongly recommended, and over time the default values in
421 the bacula-dir.conf and bacula-sd.conf will reflect these choices.
423 If you have any questions about this or would like a detailed document
424 describing our recommendations including packaging requirements, please
425 send an email to the bacula-devel list.
427 6. Starting with Bacula version 3.0.0 up to Bacula 5.0.0, the shared
428 libraries that Bacula uses by default are named xxx-1.0.0. Starting with
429 Bacula 5.0.1, we are going to name the libraries using the Bacula version.
430 So in Bacula 5.0.1, the libraries will be named xxx-5.0.1. With future
431 versions, the last digit may or may not change when we distribute patch
432 updates (i.e. the last digit of the version changes). This will depend on
433 whether or not we have changed something in the library. Hopefully this
434 new procedure will resolve some of the incompatibility problems between
435 different versions of the shared objects.
437 7. The default build option for bconsole is conio (my own little console
438 routines). I did this because some years ago, readline was very difficult
439 to maintain -- it and where it was found seemed to change on every release.
440 This generated at the time a number of support problems. It seems to me
441 that since then there have been very few problems with readline. As a
442 consequence, I have no problem if you want to make bconsole with readline
443 enabled. It will actually give some very nice new bconsole command
444 completion functionality that Eric has written. Bottom line: feel free to
445 use readline or not as you please.
447 ==========================================================
451 Release Notes for Bacula 5.0.0
454 -----------------------------------------------------------
455 You might be wondering why this release jumps from 3.0.x to
456 5.0.0 thus skipping version 4.0.0. We have done this for
457 several reasons: first, we wanted a way of distinguishing
458 the numbering system for the Bacula System Enterprise version
459 and the Bacula Project version. So, to do so, we have decided
460 that the first number of the Bacula Project version will always
461 be odd, and the first number of the Enterprise version will always
462 be even. Thus the Bacula Project now moves from 3.0.x to 5.0.x.
463 In addition, we want to keep the Bacula Project version larger
464 than the Enterprise version to indicate that the Bacula Project
465 version is more advanced or has more features than the
466 Enterprise version. For memory, the current Enterprise version
467 is 2.6.1, and the next release (in a few months -- before June 2010)
468 will be version 4.0.0.

521 As always, both the Director and Storage daemon must be upgraded at
522 the same time, and on any given machine, you must run only one version
523 of Bacula. This means that on the Director and Storage daemon machines,
524 you *must* upgrade your File daemon as well.
526 Older 3.0.x and possibly 2.4.x File Daemons are compatible with the 5.0.0
527 Director and Storage daemons. There should be no need to upgrade older File
528 Daemons immediately. However, we recommend that you do so as soon
529 as is reasonable for your situation.
531 ================== Warning !!!!!! ==========================
533 New Catalog format in version 5.0.0 (3.1.9 or later)
534 -----------------------------------------------------
536 This release of Bacula uses a new catalog format. We provide a set of
537 scripts that permit to convert a 3.0.x (version 11) catalog to 5.0.0 (version
538 12). The Bacula project rpms distributed on Source Forge will automatically
539 detect the database change and do the upgrade for you. We strongly
540 recommend that you save a copy of your existing database before upgrading
543 The simplest way to upgrade the database assuming you are building from
545 1. Stop any current version of Bacula from running.
546 2. Save a copy of your existing database.
547 3. Configure, build, and install the 5.0.0 version of Bacula
548 Note the new ./configure options in the manuals see the link
549 at the bottom of this file.
550 4. cd <your-scripts-installation-directory>
551 5. ./update_bacula_tables
552 6. If you have multiple catalogs, edit the update_bacula_tables
553 script and put the name of another database, and then
554 execute the script again. Repeat this until all Bacula
555 catalogs have been updated.
556 7. Start the new Bacula. If everything worked, it should
557 not print any error messages.
559 If you start from scratch, you don't need to run the update_bacula_tables
560 script because the create_bacula_tables script automatically creates the new
561 table format. However, if you are using a version of Bacula older than 3.1.9
562 (e.g. 3.0.3) then you need to run the update_bacula_tables script that will
563 be found in the <bacula>/src/cats directory after you run the ./configure
564 command. As mentioned above, before running this script, please backup your
565 catalog database, and when you do running it, be sure shutdown Bacula and be
566 aware that running the script can take some time depending on your database

571 ================== Warning !!!!!! ==========================
572 If you upgrade a previous Win32 client installation, you must
573 first stop the File daemon, then uninstall it before attempting
574 the upgrade. If you do not do so, the upgrade will probably
575 fail and you will need to manually find and run the
576 Uninstall.exe file, before you can upgrade to the new version.
577 This is because the file locations are different. If you want
578 to save your previous bacula-fd.conf file, please do so before
580 ================================================================
582 ================== Warning !!!!!! ==========================
583 Due to permissions problems on Windows Vista and later systems,
584 we no longer require SYSTEM or Administrator permissions to
585 access the binaries and configuation files. If you wish
586 to restrict access to these files, please see the New Features
587 section of the manual for how to set access control lists.
588 ================================================================
590 Note, the Win32 Installer no longer installs the Bacula Servers
591 (Director and Storage daemon). See the New Features section of
592 the manual for more details.
594 ============ Documentation improvements needed ==================
596 Note!!!!! The 5.0.0+ documentation has a number of known problems:
598 1. We have reduced the number of manuals, which has fixed many
599 of the broken links found in the old 3.0.x version, but there
600 are still some that need fixing.
602 2. Integration of the 3.0.x features into the main manuals has
605 The documentation will not be completed in the near future due to lack
606 manpower. If you are unhappy with this situation as we are, we suggest
607 you help by submitting patches to the documentation. Thanks.
611 This release includes large number of new features and changes.
612 It should be more or less compatible with previous xx.conf files
613 and File daemons providing that you are not using any of the new
616 Please see the New Features chapter of the new manual, which documents
617 some but not all the new features (we are still working on it):
