36 definitions rather than just prepending the new storage.
37 This should prevent a good deal of confusion.
39 kes Implement ./configure search for qwt libraries.
41 kes Disable posting the WM_CLOSE message in KillRunningCopy of the

136 kes Implement Windows reparse points -- similar to directories, but
137 we do not descend into it. This is a first cut. They seem to
138 be backed up, but restore is not yet tested.
139 kes Remove restore_blocking in tls code when shutting a socket to leave
140 it in blocking mode. Hopefully this will fix the encryption bug
141 reported by Frank Sweetser.
142 kes When opening a file for backup, tell the OS that we are going to

210 place of the old bnet_xxx code.
211 kes Implement code that does an on the fly calculation of the
212 signing digest during restore of encrypted files. It makes
213 a best guess at the algorithm, and if it is not correct, will
214 then revert to the old code which reads the file after it is
216 kes Implement at least one missing crypto stream in stream_to_ascii()
217 kes Apply patch from William <chowmeined@gmail.com> that fixes bug

220 Cut: 2.1.14 beta (not released)
222 kes Do not free a volume on a tape drive until another volume is
223 mounted and read, or the autochanger unloads the volume.
224 This should help the SD re-use volumes that are already mounted,
225 and should fix bug #886.
226 kes Apply patch from user brettedgar that allows gnome2-console include
227 the OpenSSL libraries, and hence work with SSL. Fixes bug #885.

583 kes Turn the .die command on only if DEVELOPER is defined -- i.e.
584 it should normally be off in a production system.
586 kes Implement die command for SD so that we can force it to dump.
587 kes Implement SD lock debug code.
588 kes Implement new algorithm for keeping Volume list in SD. It
589 is now owned by the device.

605 kes Add update database scripts (version 9 to 10) to updatedb directory.
607 ebl Check size and age of each file after its backup to see if
608 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
609 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
610 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
611 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
612 error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.
614 kes Make database name and user configurable
615 --with-db-name=xxx --with-db-user=xxx
616 kes Add back database type to message.c for debugging.
618 kes Implement dir_sql() which issues an SQL query.

641 No install yet though.
643 kes Implement a new .sql command for bat.
644 kes Implement code to turn off pruning in obtaining the next volume.
645 Pruning is turned off for the status dir command, but turned on
646 for SD requests and for the list nextvolume command.
648 kes Correct Qmsg() that was not updated correctly when committing a
649 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
651 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
652 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
653 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
655 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
656 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
657 amount of duplicated code.
658 kes Do volume pruning only for the Media Type desired (reduces pruning time
659 if multiple Media Types are in the same pool).
660 kes Implement more detailed info in the Job report for the Bacula version
662 kes Switch from POOLMEM to POOL_MEM (a real class) in ua_prune.c and
664 ebl Add bbatch tool to bench database and insert mode.
665 Fix sql quote stuff in batch mode
666 Fix sql stuff for mysql
668 kes Correct problems with am/pm scheduling. Fixes bug #808.
669 kes Implement new prunning code that prunes up to 1000 jobs at
670 the same time. The same technique can be applied to a number
671 of other prune/purge subroutines.
672 kes Add an insanity check when starting a new tape job to ensure
673 that the tape position has not been changed. If so fail the
675 kes Fix Win32 build for dlls to add the folllowing:
676 src/lib/bsock.c -- new file with new entry points
677 src/lib/dlist.c -- new entry points
678 src/cats/sql_create.c -- new entry point
679 src/cats/sql_cmds.c -- new DATA item exported
681 ebl batch mode cleanup bscan-test is ok now.
682 kes Implement SD code to check length of disk volume before appending.
684 kes Correct return status on db_batch... routines.
685 kes Add call to db_write_batch_file_records() to migration code.
686 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
687 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director
688 to after we drop privileges. This avoids the need for both root
689 and bacula access to the DB.
690 kes Correct a misplaced variable definition in src/filed/backup.c
691 kes Correct how the new batch insert db_create_attributes_record()
692 uses the arguments. Caused a seg fault in bscan.
693 kes Implement lock() and unlock() methods in DEVICE class.
694 Implement block() and set_block(xx) methods in DEVICE class.
695 kes Modify bnet_connect() so that it uses time() to check for the
696 wait time expiring (on some OSes, some system calls may not
698 kes Modify Verify to obtain the previous JobId when it is actually
699 running rather than at schedule time (as it was in 1.38.x).
700 kes Fix src/job.c to handle MaxWaitTime correctly. This should
702 kes When checking pid in pid file, continue running if the pid is
703 the same as ours. This occurs on IRIX after a system crash.
706 kes Extend new GUI API.
707 kes Make the ua structure a class, and implement send_msg(),
708 error_msg(), warning_msg(), and info_msg().
710 kes Apply fix from for building wx-console on the Mac from

713 kes Reorganize initialization of stackedWidgets in bat.
715 kes Add updated nagios plugin supplied by Christian Masopust.
717 kes More bat implementation.
718 kes File migrate bug with Pool Occupancy using mediaid instead
719 of jobids. Fixes bug #795.
720 kes Fix orphaned buffers in filed backup and verify due to
721 crypto buffers not freed during errors. Fixes bug #789.
722 kes Extend new GUI api code to tree commands.
723 kes Ensure that tree and dot commands check console ACLs.

725 kes Allow 20 console connections (instead of only 10).
727 kes Add smartctl call to bacula-sd.conf as an example of getting
730 kes Modify jobq.c to let simultaneous restore jobs run. This may
731 cause them to fail if they cannot get a drive.
732 kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
733 modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.
735 kes Correct virtual changer check which was backwards. This caused
736 volumes to be unloaded into slots already occupied.
738 kes Apply Command ACL filter to JobId list in restore command.
739 kes Correct typeo in var.c patch.
741 kes Don't let Bacula prune File or Job records for the current Job.

745 kes Correct SQLite log table index as reported by Luca Berra.
747 ebl fix fifo stuff, bacula tries to rewind the fifo... Thanks to Andreas
749 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
750 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
752 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
753 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
754 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
756 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
757 than English. Fixes bug #788.
759 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.
761 You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.
762 It will be fixed soon.
763 If you want to use this, you can apply
764 trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
766 kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
767 no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
768 set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
769 ebl finish RecyclePool feature
770 Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
771 when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do
772 update volume=xxx frompool
773 To use it, add RecyclePool = aPool to your Pool resource
776 RecyclePool = Scratch
780 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
781 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
782 that returns more information and will make it easier
783 to interface to the Director from a program.
785 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
786 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
787 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
788 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
789 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
790 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
791 the Changer Command to an empty string.
793 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
794 in a single write() request rather than in two.
795 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
796 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool
798 kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files
799 to be truncated. This fixes bug #763.
800 kes Add FD event sequence order prepared by Eric -- for RunScripts.
801 kes Fix 12am/pm bug as reported in bug #782 -- scheduler problem.
803 kes Apply Eric's ClientRunScriptAfter patch to 2.0 and 2.1.
804 ebl Use btime_t instead of uint64_t in media patch.

808 was opened, it is closed.
810 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
811 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
812 in the case of orphaned records.
813 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
814 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
815 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
816 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
817 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
818 happens to the ScratchPool?
819 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
820 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
821 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
822 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
823 times are in Bacula units.
824 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
826 kes Update projects list.
828 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
829 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
830 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.
831 kes Fix dird/ua_cmds.c so that a cancel command checks if the
832 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
834 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
835 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
836 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
838 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
839 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
841 Switch to using Subversion
842 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
844 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
845 plus the entrypoints.
846 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
847 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
848 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
850 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
851 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
853 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
854 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
855 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
857 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
858 problem is with read or append.
860 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
861 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
862 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
863 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
864 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
865 (i.e. migration jobs).
866 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
867 a memory leak problem.
868 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
869 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
870 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
871 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
872 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
873 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
874 (hides some of the ugly casting).
875 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
876 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
877 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
878 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
879 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
880 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
881 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
882 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
883 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
885 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
887 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
888 kes Reorder projects file in order determined by Jan 2007 vote.
889 kes Implement item #12 on project list -- quick release of FD by
891 kes Fix open of SQLite3 db where user does not have write permission
892 so that DIR does not crash. Fixes bug #761.
894 kes Add back missing @ in Win32 Makefile.
895 kes Change 'Device not configured to autolabel' from INFO
897 kes Fix jobq.c to restart failed jobs when Reschedule Times = 0
898 which should restart an indefinite # of times.
899 kes Fix configure --help to print --with-mysql[=DIR]. Same for
900 other DIR specifications.
902 rn Fix msvc build problems. Fix bacula.dll exports for msvc build.
903 Fix path quoting in SQLite scripts.
904 Fix problems with SHGetFolderPath.
906 kes Create patches/2.0.1-restart.patch. Fixes bug #755.
908 kes Fix Job restart on error bug that promotes an Inc to a Full
909 backup. This should fix bug #755.
910 kes Add qt-console and first cut of code.
914 kes Fix Bacula->Documentation link on Win32 to point to index.html
915 instead of bacula.html. Fixed bug #750.
916 kes Return JobId in db_get_job_record() when JobId==0. This should
918 kes Do not release source pointers when restarting a failed job.
920 kes Add dynamic dll entry point for SHGetFolderPath to Win32 code.
921 This *should* fix bug #747.
922 kes Modify winbacula.nsi to substitute with g bin_dir_cmd. Should fix
925 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
926 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
927 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
928 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
929 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
930 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
932 kes Add code to indicate when the SD is spooling, spool wait, and
933 despooling as requested by Alan Brown.
935 Version 2.0.0 released: 4 January 2007
