1 Technical notes on version 2.1
5 kes Add updated nagios plugin supplied by Christian Masopust.
7 kes More bat implementation.
8 kes File migrate bug with Pool Occupancy using mediaid instead
9 of jobids. Fixes bug #795.
10 kes Fix orphaned buffers in filed backup and verify due to
11 crypto buffers not freed during errors. Fixes bug #789.
12 kes Extend new GUI api code to tree commands.
13 kes Ensure that tree and dot commands check console ACLs.
14 kes Permit marking directory with trailing slash.
15 kes Allow 20 console connections (instead of only 10).
17 kes Add smartctl call to bacula-sd.conf as an example of getting
20 kes Modify jobq.c to let simultaneous restore jobs run. This may
21 cause them to fail if they cannot get a drive.
22 kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
23 modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.
25 kes Correct virtual changer check which was backwards. This caused
26 volumes to be unloaded into slots already occupied.
28 kes Apply Command ACL filter to JobId list in restore command.
29 kes Correct typeo in var.c patch.
31 kes Don't let Bacula prune File or Job records for the current Job.
32 kes Fix variable substitution pad + inc bug reported (with patch)
35 kes Correct SQLite log table index as reported by Luca Berra.
37 ebl fix fifo stuff, bacula tries to rewind the fifo... Thanks to Andreas
39 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
40 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
42 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
43 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
44 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
46 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
47 than English. Fixes bug #788.
49 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.
51 You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.
52 It will be fixed soon.
53 If you want to use this, you can apply
54 trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
56 kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
57 no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
58 set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
59 ebl finish RecyclePool feature
60 Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
61 when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do
62 update volume=xxx frompool
63 To use it, add RecyclePool = aPool to your Pool resource
70 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
71 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
72 that returns more information and will make it easier
73 to interface to the Director from a program.
75 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
76 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
77 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
78 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
79 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
80 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
81 the Changer Command to an empty string.
83 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
84 in a single write() request rather than in two.
85 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
86 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool
88 kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files
89 to be truncated. This fixes bug #763.
90 kes Add FD event sequence order prepared by Eric -- for RunScripts.
91 kes Fix 12am/pm bug as reported in bug #782.
93 kes Apply Eric's ClientRunScriptAfter patch to 2.0 and 2.1.
94 ebl Use btime_t instead of uint64_t in media patch.
96 kes Optimize the use of the database a bit in the Status dir command.
97 Only open it when needed, ensure that if any previous database
98 was opened, it is closed.
100 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
101 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
102 in the case of orphaned records.
103 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
104 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
105 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
106 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
107 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
108 happens to the ScratchPool?
109 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
110 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
111 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
112 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
113 times are in Bacula units.
114 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
116 kes Update projects list.
118 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
119 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
120 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.
121 kes Fix dird/ua_cmds.c so that a cancel command checks if the
122 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
124 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
125 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
126 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
128 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
129 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
131 Switch to using Subversion
132 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
134 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
135 plus the entrypoints.
136 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
137 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
138 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
140 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
141 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
143 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
144 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
145 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
147 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
148 problem is with read or append.
150 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
151 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
152 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
153 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
154 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
155 (i.e. migration jobs).
156 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
157 a memory leak problem.
158 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
159 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
160 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
161 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
162 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
163 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
164 (hides some of the ugly casting).
165 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
166 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
167 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
168 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
169 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
170 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
171 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
172 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
173 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
175 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
177 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
178 kes Reorder projects file in order determined by Jan 2007 vote.
179 kes Implement item #12 on project list -- quick release of FD by
181 kes Fix open of SQLite3 db where user does not have write permission
182 so that DIR does not crash. Fixes bug #761.
184 kes Add back missing @ in Win32 Makefile.
185 kes Change 'Device not configured to autolabel' from INFO
187 kes Fix jobq.c to restart failed jobs when Reschedule Times = 0
188 which should restart an indefinite # of times.
189 kes Fix configure --help to print --with-mysql[=DIR]. Same for
190 other DIR specifications.
192 rn Fix msvc build problems. Fix bacula.dll exports for msvc build.
193 Fix path quoting in SQLite scripts.
194 Fix problems with SHGetFolderPath.
196 kes Create patches/2.0.1-restart.patch. Fixes bug #755.
198 kes Fix Job restart on error bug that promotes an Inc to a Full
199 backup. This should fix bug #755.
200 kes Add qt-console and first cut of code.
204 kes Fix Bacula->Documentation link on Win32 to point to index.html
205 instead of bacula.html. Fixed bug #750.
206 kes Return JobId in db_get_job_record() when JobId==0. This should
208 kes Do not release source pointers when restarting a failed job.
210 kes Add dynamic dll entry point for SHGetFolderPath to Win32 code.
211 This *should* fix bug #747.
212 kes Modify winbacula.nsi to substitute with g bin_dir_cmd. Should fix
215 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
216 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
217 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
218 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
219 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
220 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
222 kes Add code to indicate when the SD is spooling, spool wait, and
223 despooling as requested by Alan Brown.
225 Version 2.0.0 released: 4 January 2007
