2 ====================================================
3 Further testing of restore with .mod
5 User preferences. With log to stdout options.
6 Have settings for defaults of limits on joblist
8 Add fileset to joblist.
10 joblist cancel a running job.
12 Set default for replace in run restore job to "always"??????
14 Add context sensitive options for most commands
15 status dir on page select director item
16 All items with jobid= that I thought could work from joblist are done.
21 Option in joblist like with restore from jobid but restore populating timestamp
24 Get the 5 second bring to bottom of console to stop
26 Resolve issue of connection during restore selection. Could go with preempt of
27 connections. (Kern is to work on)
29 ========LOW priority items:
30 Human readable in joblist for purged, joblevel and job type.
32 Possibly a stack of past screens so that when you open a window from another,
33 closing would bring the previous one back.
35 Is there a way to query the director/database for whether a storage is currently
36 mounted so I am not presenting both mount and unmount to the user??
38 Is there a way to identify a slot as having a cleaning tape???
39 (Kern says more work needs to be done in bacula with autochangers)
41 See if there is a solution to images fun with designer other than:
42 %s/<iconset>[\.\/]*:images/<iconset>images/g
43 %s/<iconset>images/<iconset>..\/images/g
45 Think about good ways to clean up the Console creation part of the
47 ========================================================
50 A window showing a list of jobs and defaults. Defaults can be gotten in manner
51 similar to what the first restore window does.
53 A window showing a list of schedule resources.
55 Kern discussed windows showing statistics like web based interfaces.
56 ========================================================
59 The ablility to modify configuration files to create jobs, schedules, filesets
60 and any other director resources.
62 The ablility to modify configuration files to create storage resources.
64 Add a status dir graphical interface. It would auto update every ?? seconds
65 and have a list of scheduled jobs, and in the que to run jobs that could be
66 cancelled graphically.
68 Add a status client window. Keep updating showing what file is being
71 bRestore add code to get working.
73 May be in brestore, find a file by name, find a directory by name
75 ===========================================================
77 ===========================================================
79 I'm not sure about this one?? Things seem to work and I did not do a
80 thing to make it happen: the "dir" is a member of Console
82 - We also must somehow make the low level I/O routines know which
83 director/console to use. Currently they always use the single
84 global one defined in the mainWin class (if I remember right).
86 ============================================================
88 ============================================================
89 Test left pane of restore with 2 windows drives in one backup job.
90 Yup, id didn't work, now it does.
92 Purging not working from console or from context sensitive.
93 This was a confusion with the restore command. Now resolved.
95 Can produce a segfault by attempting to restore from a restore job. In
96 pre-restore, prevent a job in the list from being a restore job.
98 Need to figure out the functionality and inteligence that the last restore
99 window should have and give it to it. Right now it shows drop downs with no
102 Allow for selecting multiple jobs to restore from in joblist. Right click
103 restore from job works, but not with multiple selected jobs.
105 See if it would be possible to have user provided console text show up in a
108 Get status codes in dropdown for joblist select.
110 Create class to display messages from a specific job. Want the ability to
111 create an instance of that class from joblist.
113 Color code termination code in joblist. I also want a table to convert
114 termination code into human readable text.
116 show purged flag in joblist. Don't have purge option show if already purged.
119 MainWin::setContextMenuDockText
120 MainWin::setTreeWidgetItemDockColor
123 preempt all connections to console with
124 if (!is_connectedGui())
125 or some other mechanism. May find more as users start finding them.
127 Create documentation for any other developers interested in creating
128 new classes to add more pages. Explain how to use the pages class
129 and about not populating until the tree widget is clicked etc...
131 Add numerous are you sure dialog boxes. Like are you sure you want to
132 delete/purge that volume. Show a little of the documentation about what
133 the consequences of delete or purging are.
135 A Tree widget context sensitive menu option and class to jump from known job
136 to surf the filestructure on the job.
137 This was future, but it is kind of done with restore from jobid
139 Get rid of "Warning: name layoutWidget is already used" when make uic's restore.ui
141 Create the ability to start a restore from joblist. Right click, select
142 "restore from Jobid=xx" create an instance of restore defaulting in the jobid
143 or a list of selected jobs.
145 Update README describe bat.conf.example to bat.conf
147 Test restore and get anything not working, working.
148 Add inteligence to prerestore.
150 Color code Media Red->Error Append->green Full/Used->Yellow
152 Get restore into stack.
153 Should the jobs dialog be turned into a page as well??
154 Possilbe: Turn run and label into docked pages. (remove button bar buttons??)
156 Where and bootstrap are confused in runjobs of restore.
157 This was just the labels.
159 Create list of what does not work.
160 From what I can tell, just the restore window on the left.
162 Add option to LIMIT the number of jobs shown in all jobs page for users with
163 multiple hundreds to thousands of jobs.
165 Play with includes to Make these compiles shorter.
166 moved includes of of includes and into files only console.h should be long
168 relabel storage=DDS3 oldvolume=ddsvol003 volume=dds3vol003 slot=3 pool=dds3_hope
169 in label slot spinner, limit the upper to the value of slots for that storage.
171 Fix bug in myth box not working with .sql query="" command.
172 This was a fix in mysql
174 Figure out how to get tables like Joblist to do the equivalent of double clicking
175 on the separating lines between each of the headings.
176 Tried the hard way first. Oops.
178 If the console command line entry docked widget gets the focus, make
179 m_currentConsole the top widget by setting the treewidgetitem selected.
180 Did this in MainWin::input_line almost better to let the person see
181 whatever they want until they hit enter.
183 Set Window titles to reflect what director it is.
185 Must:: get page selector to follow undocked windows. Otherwise
186 current console won't be current.
188 Re-add class for storage, I accidentally reverted because I left
189 it on my laptop. This is why I like committing often.
191 Add class for FileSets
193 Another idea for what you have implemented:
194 - I think that the dynamic pages that you create on the fly
195 should be nested under the item that creates them more like a
198 For example: Jobs on Volume xxx, probably should be shown under
199 "All Jobs" (or Media if that is what created it) and "Jobs of
200 Client Rufus" probably should be shown under "Clients". I base
201 this on looking at the Select page list after I have brought up 3
202 or 4 dynamic pages. Once there are a good number, I get a bit
203 confused where they came from. This would also permit selecting
204 multipe Volumes then displaying multiple pages, one for each
205 Volume selected. If they are nested, then that nested level can
206 be expanded or collapsed, which would be pretty cool at keeping
207 information, but getting it out of the way, sort of like what
208 happens for a directory tree.
211 My original concept was to put these in a tabbed widget. Your Idea may
212 make for a cleaner user experience. I like it. It could save the
213 effort of getting a tabbed widget to work.
216 - I think we need to make the current Director more explicit, by
217 perhaps highlighting it in the page selector when it is current
218 and unhighlighting it when it is not (we could use color as we do
219 for the console, though some color blind people may have
222 - When any director is clicked, we need to set it as the current
223 director and set the current console as well.
225 Remove DoubleClicking, From pages class not needed any more.
227 Broken with multiple directors:
228 - If you click on the second director, it will probably open, but
229 none of the pages that are defined below it will be able to talk
230 to it. They will most likely talk to the first director.
232 - When any console is clicked we need to set it as the current
233 console (m_console) and also set its director as the current
234 director (m_topItem). These are in the mainwin class.
236 - When any page is selected, we must set both the current
237 director (m_topItem) and current console (m_console) that this
238 page is connected to.
241 m_topItem has been changed to Console::directorTreeItem()
242 m_currentConsole->directorTreeItem(); returns disired treeWidgetItem
244 - We also need a concept of a "local" director/console for each
245 page, so the page knows who it is talking to -- this doesn't
246 currently exist, so I think we must pass the director and console
247 to each page widget constructor.
250 m_currentConsole is saved in each page subclass's m_console. This value
251 is set by all but the console class calling Pages::pgInitialie() in it's
254 In short, there is a lot of work to be done to make multiple
255 simultaneous directors work.
260 If the above prooves to be too much, we might consider to only
261 have a single director at a time, and simply let the user select
262 which director he wants to connect to (one at a time, but
263 dynamically). In the end, this may be the best thing to do, so
264 any user who wishes to connect to multiple directors would run
265 two instances of bat. I am a bit unsure now, but the above list
266 of things to do is much bigger than I thought it was going to be.
