9 - Correct link to manual in authenticate.c in various
11 - Create a new src/stored/reserve.c file where the
12 Use Storage command is processed and drives are
14 - Modify src/stored/autochanger.c to keep track of each
15 Slot that is loaded for each device.
16 - Ensure that changer_command and changer_name are picked
17 up from Autochanger resource if not specified, and if
18 neither is specified, err.

32 locked when inc/dec the use count.
33 - Remove the global jcr lock when traversing the jcr
35 - Use dlist to implement the jcr chain rather than hand
36 crafted next and prev links.
37 - Lock the jcr chain inside each function that modifies
42 - Fix compile problem of ua_restore.c on broken compilers.

142 - Move job initialization code after job scheduling so that
143 Verify jobs check for the prior JobId after they are really
144 started rather than before.

150 - Fix sign extension problem in lex.c that reads UTF-8
151 with Chinese characters incorrectly.
155 - Remove a few HAVE_TLS #ifdefs
156 - Implement final Python style interface. More implemention to
157 be done, but the interface should change little if at all.
159 - Make default no tls support. You must add

184 - Fix bscan to open tape in read-only mode (actually fix
185 it so that it doesn't use the standard open routine).
186 - Correct what appears to be an error in setting the
187 return value in dvd.c
189 - Get FD Python running -- design Python backup interface.

223 - Remove Created new FileSet message as it always comes out in
225 - eliminate dev_is_tape() in favor of method dev->is_tape()
226 - Turn on disk seeking during restore for Disk Volumes. This
227 required some changes to bscan -- they seem a bit suspect as
228 they are not symmetrical for tape/files.
229 - Remove some of the recursion in stored/parse_bsr.c
230 - Move rescue out to a new Bacula project.
232 - Update of web site to replace old released doc with LaTeX
234 - Replace logo in doc with new bat logo.
235 - Make a good number of updates to the manual.

283 hoping to fix the /lib/tls hang problems (lost signal).
284 - Move resource locking seaching from parse_conf.c to res.c
286 - Modify end of volume handling so that fixup_... does not
287 redo what block.c has already done -- writing Vol info to
288 DIR. This fixes a bug with bad numbers of files on a tape
289 when it filled as reported by Peter.
290 - In release_device() do not update the DIR on the Volume
291 info if the the information was already written at the
294 - NOTE!!!! This version has a new DIR <--> SD protocol. Both
295 must be updated at the same time.
296 - Begin implementation of passing all the Storage and Device
297 possibilities to the SD for examination during the reserve
299 - Modify the reserve and acquire code in the SD to make a
300 job wait if the device is not available.

313 if the drive is not available. Note! This is a short
316 - Comment out Multiple Connections in the document.
317 - Move the P() and V() to subroutines so that they can be accessed
318 from class methods. The reference to strerror() caused problems.
319 - Implement new DEVICE class methods block() and unblock() that
320 do what was previously done in 3 lines of code.
321 - Implement wait_for_device(), which will wait for any device
322 to be released then return. This requires a new global mutex
323 and condition variable, and is implemented in src/stored/wait.c
324 - Change the code in reserve_device_for_read(), which previously
325 failed the job to use the new device wait code.
327 - Apply reschedule patch to 1.37 code.
328 - Add copyright to title page of manual so it is clear.
329 - Create patch for rescheduling problem found by Ludovic. Storage
330 pointers were lost during rescheduling.
331 - Attempt to fix 2.6 rescue disk -- failed!
332 - Start working on adding a wait routine in the SD.
333 - Cleanup some old invalid doc in watchdog.

336 - Add a few more methods to DEVICE in SD to cleanup code a
337 bit -- implement a few of the methods.
339 - Fix more print_name()s for printing device name.
340 - Modify open_dev to try 10 times every 6 seconds to
341 open the device if it gets an I/O error (meaning no
342 volume mounted). This gives a bit of settling in time
343 for an autochanger and avoids spurious messages.
344 - Change all yes/no to yes|no in the manual.
345 - Fix win32 create_file.c typo.
346 - Fix a typo in an error message.
348 - Detect if fseeko exists with autoconf. If so, use it
350 - Remove old bacula-*.conf from examples directory (out
352 - Remove latex-fr index files from CVS.
353 - Rewrite code that stops reading the tape so that the
354 tape is marked at EOT, then once the work is done,
355 the EOT flag is removed.
356 - Flush output to file after every send in console.
357 - Make setting VolFiles to smaller number fatal.
358 - Disable Multiple Connections code.

375 - Add a second job and a second client to the default
376 bacula-dir.conf file.
377 - Remove old style Include/Excludes.

379 - Add Python to SD and FD.
381 - Implement IBM labels
382 - Implement EOF and EOV labels at the end of a volume.
383 - Fix a rather ugly problem with the PoolId not getting
384 passed correctly. Now the DIR passes the Pool name and
385 Media Type to the SD, who passes them back when requesting
386 the next Volume. The DIR then looks up the correct PoolId.
387 This takes more time, but always works, AND allows wild
388 card Media Types (i.e. the SD can decide).
389 - The DIR <==> SD protocol has changed.
393 - Fix scanf of PoolId in catreq to handle 64 bit Ids.
395 - Add new ua_update.c file and move update_cmd there.

404 everywhere in the SD.
405 - Remove .linked.tex files in preparation for cutover to
406 using .tex in place of .wml.
408 - Copy latest config.sub and config.guess from autoconf.
409 - Try new way of identifying drives with:
410 "resource-name" (physical-name)
411 More work need to a complete conversion.
413 - Rework some of the autochanger data so that the DIR has
414 the number of drives.
415 - Modify the way the Device info is returned so that it comes
416 back as a special message type and can be sent anytime the
417 Device status changes.
418 - Copy the change name and changer command into the device
419 record if none is specified.
420 - Require the change command and changer name to be specified in
421 and AutoChanger resource.
422 - Force all the Media Type records of all devices in an Autochanger
425 - Add new "run" command to Job resource in DIR. This permits
426 cloning a job as many times as you want.
427 - Pass PoolId to SD on Query request. It is now used in the
428 Find_media catalog request.
429 - Reworked the Device resource in the DIR. Eliminated num_waiting
430 and use_count, but added max_writers, reserved, and PoolId.
431 - This DIR is nolonger compatible with previous SDs.
432 - Add since and cloned keywords to the Console run command
434 - Implemented store_alist_str() to allow multiple string items
435 to be specified in a .conf file.
436 - Added %s (since time) to Job code editing.
437 - Reworked reserving drives in the SD. It now does it much simpler
440 - Integrate HP-UX patch from Olivier Mehani <olivier.mehani@linbox.com>

449 - Fix a few problems with the MySQL table create in 1.37.
450 - Delete the new tables in the table delete files.
451 - Increase the number of items permitted in a conf table.
452 - Make Director loop over alternative Devices specified in the
453 Storage resource until one is reserved by SD.
454 - Fix storing of StorageId in Media records.
455 - Add AutoSelect = yes|no in bacula-sd.conf
456 - Add Autochanger support to Label command.
457 - Do not autoselect devices with autoselect set false
459 - Implement setting DIR Storage device to Autochanger
461 - Select first available device in Autochanger.
462 - Pass back actual device name used.
463 - Allow Query of AutoChanger.
464 - Modify Query to include name of AutoChanger if
465 Device belongs to one.
466 - Remove old Pool code in jobq.c

488 attempt to fix a bug report.
490 - Corrected SunOs to SunOS in btraceback (user submitted).
491 - Applied patch from Roger HÃ¥kansson <hson@ludd.luth.se>
492 to warn the user of defective AWKs during ./configure.
494 - Add some changes submitted by a user for HP client build.

517 correct level -- ditto for job status. This makes the DIR
518 incompatible with older clients!
519 - Move jobq.c acquire resources to static subroutine so that

527 proper error messages can be reported in next item.
528 - Modify the query and use device SD commands to attempt to
529 open the device if it could not previously be opened.
530 - Correct error message for Could not reserve device.
531 - Correct some minor details with Autochanger resource in SD.
533 - Fix seg fault if debug level 900 set in SD.
534 - Truncate Win32 child return code to 8 bits.

542 which enforces console ACLs in the status command for Jobs.
544 - Fix Media LabelDate and FirstWritten to be correctly set.
545 - Fix deadlock in multiple simultaneous jobs.
546 - Fix tape "truncation"/"number of files" after restore bug.
548 - Ensure that correct error messages are returned when
549 reading an ANSI label.
551 - Modified ANSI label code to preserve any ANSI label
552 already found by skipping over it rather than rewriting
554 - Split the ANSI label code into ansi_label.c
555 - Do not let user relabel an ANSI labeled tape.
556 - Applied a patch for the console help command supplied
558 - Added some new dev methods. Most notably was
559 set_eof(), which handles setting all the dev variables
560 when an EOF is just read. This is now used most everywhere
563 - Added code to detect that no files were inserted into the
564 tree for a restore. If a specific JobId was specified, the
565 user has the option of restoring everything.
566 - More progress in implementing 64 bit DB Ids.
567 - Modified the daemon start messages for RH.
568 - Implement update scripts for all database types.
569 - First cut at implementing restore directory (it will not
572 - OK, I think ANSI labels work.
573 - Added Label Type = ANSI|IBM|Bacula to Device resource in SD.
574 If this is set, it will force writing of the appropriate
576 - Added Check Labels = yes|no to Device resource in SD. If this
577 is set, Bacula will check for ANSI labels and accept them,
578 otherwise, ANSI labels will not be accepted when the tape
581 - Second cut ANSI labels.
583 - Merge Preben's patch for ACLs and for Mac OS X resource forks.
585 - Display more informative message when a device was not
586 found or could not be opened.
587 - Add the sqlite3 database scripts.
588 - Add some patches for 1.36.1 (note, I have now prepared
589 a 1.36.2 with all the patches and some new features --
591 - Some minor doc updates.
592 - Add Arno's baculareport.pl script to the examples directory.
593 29Jan05 -- after vacation
594 - Add support for SQLite3 (it seems to run at 1/2 the speed
595 of SQLite2). Use --with-sqlite3 instead of --with-sqlite
597 - Add target for running qemu to boot Rescue CDROM
598 - Add code to support kernel 2.6 in Rescue CDROM -- does NOT yet
600 - Implement ANSI labels -- not yet tested.
601 This required changes to DB format. No upgrade script yet.
602 Note, more work needed to modify "update" command to handle
603 changing label types, also must restrict volume name lengths
605 - Add new Device, Storage, and MediaType records to DB. No
607 - Add MediaType to bsr file record types. Not yet used in SD.
608 - Permit multiple device specifications in Storage resource in
610 - Implement Device resources. Director requests Device resource
611 info from SD on startup.
612 - Note!!!! DIR->SD incompatible with previous versions.
613 - Remove multiple Storage definitions in Job resource. One can
614 still specify multiple Storage resources, but they all go into
615 a single alist, and imply sending data to each Storage daemon
617 - Implement Device query command between DIR and SD.
618 - Allow DIR to "reserve" a Device. It will then be acquired
619 when the FD connects to the SD.
620 - Turn all DIR resources into classes, and implement a few class
621 methods -- more to come.
622 - Turn DEVICE in SD into a class, and implement a number of inline
623 class methods -- more to come.
624 - I had serious problems with ACL errors on my Laptop, and so had
625 to add the following patch:
628 /***** Do we really want to silently ignore errors from acl_get_file
629 and acl_to_text? *****/
634 - Reworked and tested a bit the htable routines.
635 - Major changes to SD acquire.c -- DIR can now reserve devices. Needs
637 - Made a special state code for DVD -- this simplifies the logic
638 of the code, but I probably broke it. Testing needed!!!!

661 and old restore.c in filed. Also turn off code in new
662 acl.c because of errors. The new code, when fully implemented
663 moves platform specific code into acl.c.
664 One of the patches also implements WildFile and WildDir -- thanks.
666 - Implement Python in the SD (no events yet though).
667 - Fix some typos in the previous commit.
669 - Enhance CDROM boot to include some documentation at boot time.

701 if you like this one. Other code works with concatenated strings, though.
702 ws.patch.03.trailing:
703 This removes trailing whitespace. No changes resulted from this for
706 This replaces space runs at the start of line with tabs. No changes

730 - While using the rescue CDROM after my computer would not
731 boot, I realized that it would be very useful to have
732 a umount_disks. So, it is not implemented, along with
733 updates to the READMEs and some minor tweaks.
734 - Moved mounting the CDROM in the rescue boot from /cdrom
735 to /mnt/cdrom (more standard location).
