120 marked as being removable and has the appropriate mount and unmount
121 commands defined in the Device resource. This fixes bug #830.
122 kes When applying a storage override, release all previous storage
123 definitions rather than just prepending the new storage.
124 This should prevent a good deal of confusion.
126 kes Implement ./configure search for qwt libraries.
128 kes Disable posting the WM_CLOSE message in KillRunningCopy of the

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

271 devices, and will permit easy device changes.
272 kes A bunch of changes all over to handle new new_dcr() calling
274 kes Work more on the Volume management in the SD. Remember Volumes
275 for tape drives and for autochangers (even virtual disk changers).

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

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

632 kes Correct usage of MTIOCLRERR ioctl for clearing persistant errors
635 kes The bgnome-console (gnome-console) and bwx-console (wx-console) are
636 deprecated. No additional bugs will be fixed, and they will be dropped
637 in a future release (probably 2.4.0).
638 kes Change name of wx-console to bwx-console to make it more Bacula
640 kes Change the name of gnome-console to bgnome-console to make it
643 kes Some time in March, a Feature Request with patch from Jorj Bauer
644 <jorj@seas.upenn.edu> was committed by Landon (with my approval).
646 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
647 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
648 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
649 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place
650 of hostname matching against the Certificate's CN. As an example, we
651 have certificates which (a) use a local CA, and (b) have a CN of the

694 ebl Check size and age of each file after its backup to see if
695 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
696 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
697 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
698 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
699 error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.

732 Pruning is turned off for the status dir command, but turned on
733 for SD requests and for the list nextvolume command.
735 kes Correct Qmsg() that was not updated correctly when committing a
736 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
738 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
739 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
740 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
742 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
743 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
744 amount of duplicated code.
745 kes Do volume pruning only for the Media Type desired (reduces pruning time
746 if multiple Media Types are in the same pool).
747 kes Implement more detailed info in the Job report for the Bacula version
749 kes Switch from POOLMEM to POOL_MEM (a real class) in ua_prune.c and
751 ebl Add bbatch tool to bench database and insert mode.

819 kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
820 modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.
822 kes Correct virtual changer check which was backwards. This caused
823 volumes to be unloaded into slots already occupied.
825 kes Apply Command ACL filter to JobId list in restore command.
826 kes Correct typeo in var.c patch.
828 kes Don't let Bacula prune File or Job records for the current Job.

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

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

981 kes Add back missing @ in Win32 Makefile.
982 kes Change 'Device not configured to autolabel' from INFO
984 kes Fix jobq.c to restart failed jobs when Reschedule Times = 0
985 which should restart an indefinite # of times.

993 kes Create patches/2.0.1-restart.patch. Fixes bug #755.
995 kes Fix Job restart on error bug that promotes an Inc to a Full
996 backup. This should fix bug #755.
997 kes Add qt-console and first cut of code.
1001 kes Fix Bacula->Documentation link on Win32 to point to index.html
1002 instead of bacula.html. Fixed bug #750.
1003 kes Return JobId in db_get_job_record() when JobId==0. This should
1005 kes Do not release source pointers when restarting a failed job.
1007 kes Add dynamic dll entry point for SHGetFolderPath to Win32 code.
1008 This *should* fix bug #747.
1009 kes Modify winbacula.nsi to substitute with g bin_dir_cmd. Should fix
1012 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
1013 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
1014 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
1015 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
1016 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
1017 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
1019 kes Add code to indicate when the SD is spooling, spool wait, and
1020 despooling as requested by Alan Brown.
