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