114 definitions rather than just prepending the new storage.
115 This should prevent a good deal of confusion.
117 kes Implement ./configure search for qwt libraries.

214 kes Implement Windows reparse points -- similar to directories, but
215 we do not descend into it. This is a first cut. They seem to
216 be backed up, but restore is not yet tested.
217 kes Remove restore_blocking in tls code when shutting a socket to leave
218 it in blocking mode. Hopefully this will fix the encryption bug
219 reported by Frank Sweetser.
220 kes When opening a file for backup, tell the OS that we are going to
221 read it sequentially -- optimization.

288 place of the old bnet_xxx code.
289 kes Implement code that does an on the fly calculation of the
290 signing digest during restore of encrypted files. It makes

301 mounted and read, or the autochanger unloads the volume.
302 This should help the SD re-use volumes that are already mounted,
303 and should fix bug #886.
304 kes Apply patch from user brettedgar that allows gnome2-console include
305 the OpenSSL libraries, and hence work with SSL. Fixes bug #885.

621 Add a regression script to test RunScript
623 kes Correct usage of MTIOCLRERR ioctl for clearing persistant errors
626 kes The bgnome-console (gnome-console) and bwx-console (wx-console) are
627 deprecated. No additional bugs will be fixed, and they will be dropped
628 in a future release (probably 2.4.0).
629 kes Change name of wx-console to bwx-console to make it more Bacula
631 kes Change the name of gnome-console to bgnome-console to make it
634 kes Some time in March, a Feature Request with patch from Jorj Bauer
635 <jorj@seas.upenn.edu> was committed by Landon (with my approval).
637 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
638 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
639 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
640 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place
641 of hostname matching against the Certificate's CN. As an example, we
642 have certificates which (a) use a local CA, and (b) have a CN of the
644 kes Add new/changed entry points to Win32 build

655 kes Locking debug level tweaks in SD.
656 kes Tweak new Volume code.
658 kes Add exec external-command [wait-seconds] to bconsole. This
659 executes the external-command. Note! normally external-command
660 should be enclosed in double quotes.

685 ebl Check size and age of each file after its backup to see if
686 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
687 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
688 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
689 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
690 error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.
692 kes Make database name and user configurable
693 --with-db-name=xxx --with-db-user=xxx
694 kes Add back database type to message.c for debugging.
696 kes Implement dir_sql() which issues an SQL query.

721 kes Implement a new .sql command for bat.
722 kes Implement code to turn off pruning in obtaining the next volume.
723 Pruning is turned off for the status dir command, but turned on
724 for SD requests and for the list nextvolume command.
726 kes Correct Qmsg() that was not updated correctly when committing a
727 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
729 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
730 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
731 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
733 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
734 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
735 amount of duplicated code.
736 kes Do volume pruning only for the Media Type desired (reduces pruning time
737 if multiple Media Types are in the same pool).
738 kes Implement more detailed info in the Job report for the Bacula version
740 kes Switch from POOLMEM to POOL_MEM (a real class) in ua_prune.c and
742 ebl Add bbatch tool to bench database and insert mode.
743 Fix sql quote stuff in batch mode
744 Fix sql stuff for mysql
746 kes Correct problems with am/pm scheduling. Fixes bug #808.
747 kes Implement new prunning code that prunes up to 1000 jobs at
748 the same time. The same technique can be applied to a number
749 of other prune/purge subroutines.
750 kes Add an insanity check when starting a new tape job to ensure
751 that the tape position has not been changed. If so fail the
753 kes Fix Win32 build for dlls to add the folllowing:
754 src/lib/bsock.c -- new file with new entry points
755 src/lib/dlist.c -- new entry points
756 src/cats/sql_create.c -- new entry point

759 ebl batch mode cleanup bscan-test is ok now.
760 kes Implement SD code to check length of disk volume before appending.
762 kes Correct return status on db_batch... routines.
763 kes Add call to db_write_batch_file_records() to migration code.
764 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
765 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director
766 to after we drop privileges. This avoids the need for both root
767 and bacula access to the DB.
768 kes Correct a misplaced variable definition in src/filed/backup.c
769 kes Correct how the new batch insert db_create_attributes_record()
770 uses the arguments. Caused a seg fault in bscan.

776 kes Modify Verify to obtain the previous JobId when it is actually
777 running rather than at schedule time (as it was in 1.38.x).
778 kes Fix src/job.c to handle MaxWaitTime correctly. This should
780 kes When checking pid in pid file, continue running if the pid is

809 cause them to fail if they cannot get a drive.
810 kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
811 modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.
813 kes Correct virtual changer check which was backwards. This caused
814 volumes to be unloaded into slots already occupied.
816 kes Apply Command ACL filter to JobId list in restore command.
817 kes Correct typeo in var.c patch.
819 kes Don't let Bacula prune File or Job records for the current Job.

827 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
828 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
830 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
831 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
832 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
834 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
835 than English. Fixes bug #788.
837 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.
839 You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.
840 It will be fixed soon.
841 If you want to use this, you can apply
842 trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
844 kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
845 no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
846 set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
847 ebl finish RecyclePool feature
848 Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
849 when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do
850 update volume=xxx frompool
851 To use it, add RecyclePool = aPool to your Pool resource
854 RecyclePool = Scratch
858 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
859 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
860 that returns more information and will make it easier
861 to interface to the Director from a program.
863 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
864 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
865 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
866 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
867 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
868 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
869 the Changer Command to an empty string.
871 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
872 in a single write() request rather than in two.
873 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
874 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool
876 kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files
877 to be truncated. This fixes bug #763.
878 kes Add FD event sequence order prepared by Eric -- for RunScripts.
879 kes Fix 12am/pm bug as reported in bug #782 -- scheduler problem.
881 kes Apply Eric's ClientRunScriptAfter patch to 2.0 and 2.1.
882 ebl Use btime_t instead of uint64_t in media patch.

886 was opened, it is closed.
888 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
889 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
890 in the case of orphaned records.
891 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
892 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
893 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
894 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
895 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
896 happens to the ScratchPool?
897 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
898 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
899 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
900 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
901 times are in Bacula units.
902 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
904 kes Update projects list.
906 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
907 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
908 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.
909 kes Fix dird/ua_cmds.c so that a cancel command checks if the
910 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
912 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
913 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
914 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
916 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
917 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
919 Switch to using Subversion
920 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
922 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
923 plus the entrypoints.
924 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
925 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
926 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
928 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
929 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
931 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
932 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
933 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
935 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
936 problem is with read or append.
938 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
939 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
940 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
941 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
942 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
943 (i.e. migration jobs).
944 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
945 a memory leak problem.
946 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
947 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
948 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
949 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
950 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
951 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
952 (hides some of the ugly casting).
953 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
954 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
955 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
956 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
957 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
958 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
959 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
960 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
961 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
963 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
965 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
966 kes Reorder projects file in order determined by Jan 2007 vote.
967 kes Implement item #12 on project list -- quick release of FD by

970 so that DIR does not crash. Fixes bug #761.
972 kes Add back missing @ in Win32 Makefile.
973 kes Change 'Device not configured to autolabel' from INFO
975 kes Fix jobq.c to restart failed jobs when Reschedule Times = 0
976 which should restart an indefinite # of times.
977 kes Fix configure --help to print --with-mysql[=DIR]. Same for
978 other DIR specifications.
980 rn Fix msvc build problems. Fix bacula.dll exports for msvc build.
981 Fix path quoting in SQLite scripts.
982 Fix problems with SHGetFolderPath.
984 kes Create patches/2.0.1-restart.patch. Fixes bug #755.
986 kes Fix Job restart on error bug that promotes an Inc to a Full
987 backup. This should fix bug #755.
988 kes Add qt-console and first cut of code.
992 kes Fix Bacula->Documentation link on Win32 to point to index.html
993 instead of bacula.html. Fixed bug #750.
994 kes Return JobId in db_get_job_record() when JobId==0. This should
996 kes Do not release source pointers when restarting a failed job.
998 kes Add dynamic dll entry point for SHGetFolderPath to Win32 code.
999 This *should* fix bug #747.
1000 kes Modify winbacula.nsi to substitute with g bin_dir_cmd. Should fix
1003 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
1004 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
1005 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
1006 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
1007 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
1008 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
1010 kes Add code to indicate when the SD is spooling, spool wait, and
1011 despooling as requested by Alan Brown.
1013 Version 2.0.0 released: 4 January 2007
