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