7 is to protect from NULL pointers returned from SQL databases.
8 kes Correct typo in bacula-sd manpage as pointed out by John Goerzen.
9 kes Add more debug to FIFO code -- fix fifo regression test.
11 kes Implement posix_fadvise in FD, and for reading spool files in SD.

15 kes Update Win32 build to include new files, new symbols, and
17 kes Implement socket level heartbeat (tcp_keepidle)
18 ebl Commit File relocation patch
19 kes Make bat have 'make install' target.
20 kes Warn during install if old gnome-console binary found.
21 kes Warn during install if old wx-console binary found.
22 kes Add -8 option to bsmtp command line to add content type utf-8.
23 Fixes bug #809. (Character coding problem in bsmtp).
24 kes If < is found in target (from, to, cc) then do not enclose the

26 kes When printing certain items in dbcheck, stop after 300000.
27 Fixes bug #822. (dbcheck loops).
28 kes Incorrect status in Dir after waiting for mount with poll set.
31 kes Extend idea of Prefer Mounted Volumes to mean a volume about
33 kes Print waiting to reserve a device every 5 mins.
35 kes Don't call close_part in label.c if tape and relabel.
36 kes Don't free volume if busy in close() -- should help with
38 ebl Fix #824 RunScript bug (After script could be execute twice)
39 Now, Before Script can use RunsOnSuccess and RunsOnFailure options
40 By default (like before) RunsOnSuccess=true and RunsOnFailure=false
41 Add a regression script to test RunScript
43 kes Correct usage of MTIOCLRERR ioctl for clearing persistant errors
46 kes The bgnome-console (gnome-console) and bwx-console (wx-console) are
47 deprecated. No additional bugs will be fixed, and they will be dropped
48 in a future release (probably 2.4.0).
49 kes Change name of wx-console to bwx-console to make it more Bacula
51 kes Change the name of gnome-console to bgnome-console to make it
54 kes Some time in March, a Feature Request with patch from Jorj Bauer
55 <jorj@seas.upenn.edu> was committed by Landon (with my approval).
57 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
58 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
59 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
60 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place
61 of hostname matching against the Certificate's CN. As an example, we
62 have certificates which (a) use a local CA, and (b) have a CN of the
64 kes Add new/changed entry points to Win32 build
65 kes Create unaccepted-projects for projects that are not accepted.
66 kes Simplify locking in the reservations system.
67 kes Add more debug code in reservations.
68 kes Make sure error condition on reserving a volume is handled correctly.
69 kes Correct handling of volume_in_use.
70 kes Correct handling of initializing a device.
71 kes Move handling of broadcasting releasing a device into release_device().
72 kes Correct attaching dcr to dev so that it is only done if device
73 is properly initiated.
75 kes Locking debug level tweaks in SD.
76 kes Tweak new Volume code.
78 kes Add exec external-command [wait-seconds] to bconsole. This
79 executes the external-command. Note! normally external-command
80 should be enclosed in double quotes.
81 kes Turn the .die command on only if DEVELOPER is defined -- i.e.
82 it should normally be off in a production system.
84 kes Implement die command for SD so that we can force it to dump.
85 kes Implement SD lock debug code.
86 kes Implement new algorithm for keeping Volume list in SD. It
87 is now owned by the device.
89 kes Implement new code for freeing in use volumes that should
90 resolve if not all, some of the problems of multiple drive
91 tape conflicts described in bug 801.
93 kes Fix gui/bacula-web/images files in svn.
94 kes Turn on FreeBSD/OpenBSD code to set EOT model on tape.
96 ebl Fix a bug in batch mode (in string escape)
97 kes Correct migration prune SQL typo that crept in in a
100 kes Move bnet_despool() into class in bsock.c
101 kes Modify job report to include director name and Build OS.
102 kes Move drop and check_catalog() before fork.
103 kes Add update database scripts (version 9 to 10) to updatedb directory.
105 ebl Check size and age of each file after its backup to see if
106 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
107 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
108 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
109 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
110 error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.
112 kes Make database name and user configurable
113 --with-db-name=xxx --with-db-user=xxx
114 kes Add back database type to message.c for debugging.
116 kes Implement dir_sql() which issues an SQL query.
117 kes Modify bat medialist to use dir_sql() and do some minor C++
118 formatting as well as eliminating a number of pointers, simplifing
121 kes Fix some of the mtx-changer grep commands for tape label readers.
122 kes Convert a number of bsendmsg into the appropriate send/warning/error
124 kes Suppress the using database message in the .sql command.
125 kes Correct an incorrect bnet_tls_client prototype -- patch from Martin.
127 kes Add context menu for floating a window.
128 kes Some minor cleanup and name changes in qt-console
129 kes Add doing mt setblk 0 in Win32 mtx-changer.
130 kes Apply Martin's bug fix to move definition of ENODATA for
132 ebl Add a BUSY handler to sqlite to be able to use multi_db = 1 with
135 kes More pruning cleanup.
136 kes Turn on wait_for_drive by default in mtx-changer.
137 kes Turn on Batch insert code by default as it now passes regression.
138 kes Add ./configure --enable-bat to enable building of Bat.
139 No install yet though.
141 kes Implement a new .sql command for bat.
142 kes Implement code to turn off pruning in obtaining the next volume.
143 Pruning is turned off for the status dir command, but turned on
144 for SD requests and for the list nextvolume command.
146 kes Correct Qmsg() that was not updated correctly when committing a
147 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
149 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
150 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
151 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
153 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
154 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
155 amount of duplicated code.
156 kes Do volume pruning only for the Media Type desired (reduces pruning time
157 if multiple Media Types are in the same pool).
158 kes Implement more detailed info in the Job report for the Bacula version
160 kes Switch from POOLMEM to POOL_MEM (a real class) in ua_prune.c and
162 ebl Add bbatch tool to bench database and insert mode.
163 Fix sql quote stuff in batch mode
164 Fix sql stuff for mysql
166 kes Correct problems with am/pm scheduling. Fixes bug #808.
167 kes Implement new prunning code that prunes up to 1000 jobs at
168 the same time. The same technique can be applied to a number
169 of other prune/purge subroutines.
170 kes Add an insanity check when starting a new tape job to ensure
171 that the tape position has not been changed. If so fail the
173 kes Fix Win32 build for dlls to add the folllowing:
174 src/lib/bsock.c -- new file with new entry points
175 src/lib/dlist.c -- new entry points
176 src/cats/sql_create.c -- new entry point
177 src/cats/sql_cmds.c -- new DATA item exported
179 ebl batch mode cleanup bscan-test is ok now.
180 kes Implement SD code to check length of disk volume before appending.
182 kes Correct return status on db_batch... routines.
183 kes Add call to db_write_batch_file_records() to migration code.
184 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
185 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director
186 to after we drop privileges. This avoids the need for both root
187 and bacula access to the DB.
188 kes Correct a misplaced variable definition in src/filed/backup.c
189 kes Correct how the new batch insert db_create_attributes_record()
190 uses the arguments. Caused a seg fault in bscan.
191 kes Implement lock() and unlock() methods in DEVICE class.
192 Implement block() and set_block(xx) methods in DEVICE class.
193 kes Modify bnet_connect() so that it uses time() to check for the
194 wait time expiring (on some OSes, some system calls may not
196 kes Modify Verify to obtain the previous JobId when it is actually
197 running rather than at schedule time (as it was in 1.38.x).
198 kes Fix src/job.c to handle MaxWaitTime correctly. This should
200 kes When checking pid in pid file, continue running if the pid is
201 the same as ours. This occurs on IRIX after a system crash.
204 kes Extend new GUI API.
205 kes Make the ua structure a class, and implement send_msg(),
206 error_msg(), warning_msg(), and info_msg().
208 kes Apply fix from for building wx-console on the Mac from
210 kes Implement new select mechanism for GUI programs.
211 kes Reorganize initialization of stackedWidgets in bat.
213 kes Add updated nagios plugin supplied by Christian Masopust.
215 kes More bat implementation.
216 kes File migrate bug with Pool Occupancy using mediaid instead
217 of jobids. Fixes bug #795.
218 kes Fix orphaned buffers in filed backup and verify due to
219 crypto buffers not freed during errors. Fixes bug #789.
220 kes Extend new GUI api code to tree commands.
221 kes Ensure that tree and dot commands check console ACLs.
222 kes Permit marking directory with trailing slash.
223 kes Allow 20 console connections (instead of only 10).
225 kes Add smartctl call to bacula-sd.conf as an example of getting
228 kes Modify jobq.c to let simultaneous restore jobs run. This may
229 cause them to fail if they cannot get a drive.
230 kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
231 modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.
233 kes Correct virtual changer check which was backwards. This caused
234 volumes to be unloaded into slots already occupied.
236 kes Apply Command ACL filter to JobId list in restore command.
237 kes Correct typeo in var.c patch.
239 kes Don't let Bacula prune File or Job records for the current Job.
240 kes Fix variable substitution pad + inc bug reported (with patch)
243 kes Correct SQLite log table index as reported by Luca Berra.
245 ebl fix fifo stuff, bacula tries to rewind the fifo... Thanks to Andreas
247 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
248 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
250 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
251 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
252 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
254 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
255 than English. Fixes bug #788.
257 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.
259 You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.
260 It will be fixed soon.
261 If you want to use this, you can apply
262 trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
264 kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
265 no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
266 set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
267 ebl finish RecyclePool feature
268 Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
269 when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do
270 update volume=xxx frompool
271 To use it, add RecyclePool = aPool to your Pool resource
274 RecyclePool = Scratch
278 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
279 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
280 that returns more information and will make it easier
281 to interface to the Director from a program.
283 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
284 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
285 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
286 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
287 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
288 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
289 the Changer Command to an empty string.
291 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
292 in a single write() request rather than in two.
293 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
294 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool
296 kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files
297 to be truncated. This fixes bug #763.
298 kes Add FD event sequence order prepared by Eric -- for RunScripts.
299 kes Fix 12am/pm bug as reported in bug #782.
301 kes Apply Eric's ClientRunScriptAfter patch to 2.0 and 2.1.
302 ebl Use btime_t instead of uint64_t in media patch.
304 kes Optimize the use of the database a bit in the Status dir command.
305 Only open it when needed, ensure that if any previous database
306 was opened, it is closed.
308 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
309 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
310 in the case of orphaned records.
311 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
312 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
313 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
314 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
315 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
316 happens to the ScratchPool?
317 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
318 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
319 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
320 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
321 times are in Bacula units.
322 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
324 kes Update projects list.
326 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
327 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
328 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.
329 kes Fix dird/ua_cmds.c so that a cancel command checks if the
330 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
332 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
333 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
334 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
336 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
337 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
339 Switch to using Subversion
340 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
342 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
343 plus the entrypoints.
344 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
345 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
346 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
348 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
349 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
351 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
352 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
353 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
355 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
356 problem is with read or append.
358 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
359 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
360 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
361 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
362 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
363 (i.e. migration jobs).
364 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
365 a memory leak problem.
366 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
367 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
368 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
369 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
370 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
371 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
372 (hides some of the ugly casting).
373 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
374 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
375 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
376 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
377 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
378 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
379 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
380 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
381 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
383 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
385 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
386 kes Reorder projects file in order determined by Jan 2007 vote.
387 kes Implement item #12 on project list -- quick release of FD by
389 kes Fix open of SQLite3 db where user does not have write permission
390 so that DIR does not crash. Fixes bug #761.
392 kes Add back missing @ in Win32 Makefile.
393 kes Change 'Device not configured to autolabel' from INFO
395 kes Fix jobq.c to restart failed jobs when Reschedule Times = 0
396 which should restart an indefinite # of times.
397 kes Fix configure --help to print --with-mysql[=DIR]. Same for
398 other DIR specifications.
400 rn Fix msvc build problems. Fix bacula.dll exports for msvc build.
401 Fix path quoting in SQLite scripts.
402 Fix problems with SHGetFolderPath.
404 kes Create patches/2.0.1-restart.patch. Fixes bug #755.
406 kes Fix Job restart on error bug that promotes an Inc to a Full
407 backup. This should fix bug #755.
408 kes Add qt-console and first cut of code.
412 kes Fix Bacula->Documentation link on Win32 to point to index.html
413 instead of bacula.html. Fixed bug #750.
414 kes Return JobId in db_get_job_record() when JobId==0. This should
416 kes Do not release source pointers when restarting a failed job.
418 kes Add dynamic dll entry point for SHGetFolderPath to Win32 code.
419 This *should* fix bug #747.
420 kes Modify winbacula.nsi to substitute with g bin_dir_cmd. Should fix
423 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
424 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
425 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
426 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
427 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
428 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
430 kes Add code to indicate when the SD is spooling, spool wait, and
431 despooling as requested by Alan Brown.
