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