1 Technical notes on version 2.1
5 kes More bat implementation.
6 kes File migrate bug with Pool Occupancy using mediaid instead
7 of jobids. Fixes bug #795.
8 kes Fix orphaned buffers in filed backup and verify due to
9 crypto buffers not freed during errors. Fixes bug #789.
10 kes Extend new GUI api code to tree commands.
11 kes Ensure that tree and dot commands check console ACLs.
12 kes Permit marking directory with trailing slash.
13 kes Allow 20 console connections (instead of only 10).
15 kes Add smartctl call to bacula-sd.conf as an example of getting
18 kes Modify jobq.c to let simultaneous restore jobs run. This may
19 cause them to fail if they cannot get a drive.
20 kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
21 modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.
23 kes Correct virtual changer check which was backwards. This caused
24 volumes to be unloaded into slots already occupied.
26 kes Apply Command ACL filter to JobId list in restore command.
27 kes Correct typeo in var.c patch.
29 kes Don't let Bacula prune File or Job records for the current Job.
30 kes Fix variable substitution pad + inc bug reported (with patch)
33 kes Correct SQLite log table index as reported by Luca Berra.
35 ebl fix fifo stuff, bacula tries to rewind the fifo... Thanks to Andreas
37 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
38 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
40 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
41 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
42 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
44 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
45 than English. Fixes bug #788.
47 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.
49 You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.
50 It will be fixed soon.
51 If you want to use this, you can apply
52 trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
54 kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
55 no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
56 set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
57 ebl finish RecyclePool feature
58 Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
59 when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do
60 update volume=xxx frompool
61 To use it, add RecyclePool = aPool to your Pool resource
68 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
69 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
70 that returns more information and will make it easier
71 to interface to the Director from a program.
73 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
74 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
75 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
76 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
77 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
78 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
79 the Changer Command to an empty string.
81 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
82 in a single write() request rather than in two.
83 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
84 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool
86 kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files
87 to be truncated. This fixes bug #763.
88 kes Add FD event sequence order prepared by Eric -- for RunScripts.
89 kes Fix 12am/pm bug as reported in bug #782.
91 kes Apply Eric's ClientRunScriptAfter patch to 2.0 and 2.1.
92 ebl Use btime_t instead of uint64_t in media patch.
94 kes Optimize the use of the database a bit in the Status dir command.
95 Only open it when needed, ensure that if any previous database
96 was opened, it is closed.
98 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
99 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
100 in the case of orphaned records.
101 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
102 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
103 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
104 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
105 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
106 happens to the ScratchPool?
107 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
108 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
109 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
110 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
111 times are in Bacula units.
112 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
114 kes Update projects list.
116 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
117 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
118 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.
119 kes Fix dird/ua_cmds.c so that a cancel command checks if the
120 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
122 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
123 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
124 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
126 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
127 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
129 Switch to using Subversion
130 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
132 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
133 plus the entrypoints.
134 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
135 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
136 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
138 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
139 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
141 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
142 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
143 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
145 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
146 problem is with read or append.
148 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
149 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
150 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
151 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
152 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
153 (i.e. migration jobs).
154 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
155 a memory leak problem.
156 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
157 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
158 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
159 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
160 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
161 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
162 (hides some of the ugly casting).
163 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
164 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
165 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
166 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
167 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
168 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
169 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
170 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
171 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
173 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
175 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
176 kes Reorder projects file in order determined by Jan 2007 vote.
177 kes Implement item #12 on project list -- quick release of FD by
179 kes Fix open of SQLite3 db where user does not have write permission
180 so that DIR does not crash. Fixes bug #761.
182 kes Add back missing @ in Win32 Makefile.
183 kes Change 'Device not configured to autolabel' from INFO
185 kes Fix jobq.c to restart failed jobs when Reschedule Times = 0
186 which should restart an indefinite # of times.
187 kes Fix configure --help to print --with-mysql[=DIR]. Same for
188 other DIR specifications.
190 rn Fix msvc build problems. Fix bacula.dll exports for msvc build.
191 Fix path quoting in SQLite scripts.
192 Fix problems with SHGetFolderPath.
194 kes Create patches/2.0.1-restart.patch. Fixes bug #755.
196 kes Fix Job restart on error bug that promotes an Inc to a Full
197 backup. This should fix bug #755.
198 kes Add qt-console and first cut of code.
202 kes Fix Bacula->Documentation link on Win32 to point to index.html
203 instead of bacula.html. Fixed bug #750.
204 kes Return JobId in db_get_job_record() when JobId==0. This should
206 kes Do not release source pointers when restarting a failed job.
208 kes Add dynamic dll entry point for SHGetFolderPath to Win32 code.
209 This *should* fix bug #747.
210 kes Modify winbacula.nsi to substitute with g bin_dir_cmd. Should fix
213 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
214 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
215 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
216 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
217 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
218 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
220 kes Add code to indicate when the SD is spooling, spool wait, and
221 despooling as requested by Alan Brown.
