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

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

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

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

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

749 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
751 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
752 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
753 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
755 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
756 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
757 amount of duplicated code.
758 kes Do volume pruning only for the Media Type desired (reduces pruning time
759 if multiple Media Types are in the same pool).
760 kes Implement more detailed info in the Job report for the Bacula version
762 kes Switch from POOLMEM to POOL_MEM (a real class) in ua_prune.c and
764 ebl Add bbatch tool to bench database and insert mode.

771 of other prune/purge subroutines.
772 kes Add an insanity check when starting a new tape job to ensure
773 that the tape position has not been changed. If so fail the
775 kes Fix Win32 build for dlls to add the folllowing:

786 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
787 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director

789 and bacula access to the DB.
790 kes Correct a misplaced variable definition in src/filed/backup.c
791 kes Correct how the new batch insert db_create_attributes_record()
792 uses the arguments. Caused a seg fault in bscan.

832 kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
833 modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.
835 kes Correct virtual changer check which was backwards. This caused
836 volumes to be unloaded into slots already occupied.

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

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

995 kes Change 'Device not configured to autolabel' from INFO
997 kes Fix jobq.c to restart failed jobs when Reschedule Times = 0
998 which should restart an indefinite # of times.
999 kes Fix configure --help to print --with-mysql[=DIR]. Same for
1000 other DIR specifications.
1002 rn Fix msvc build problems. Fix bacula.dll exports for msvc build.
1003 Fix path quoting in SQLite scripts.
1004 Fix problems with SHGetFolderPath.
1006 kes Create patches/2.0.1-restart.patch. Fixes bug #755.
1008 kes Fix Job restart on error bug that promotes an Inc to a Full
1009 backup. This should fix bug #755.
1010 kes Add qt-console and first cut of code.
1014 kes Fix Bacula->Documentation link on Win32 to point to index.html
1015 instead of bacula.html. Fixed bug #750.
1016 kes Return JobId in db_get_job_record() when JobId==0. This should
1018 kes Do not release source pointers when restarting a failed job.
1020 kes Add dynamic dll entry point for SHGetFolderPath to Win32 code.
1021 This *should* fix bug #747.
1022 kes Modify winbacula.nsi to substitute with g bin_dir_cmd. Should fix
1025 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
1026 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
1027 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
1028 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
1029 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
1030 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
1032 kes Add code to indicate when the SD is spooling, spool wait, and
1033 despooling as requested by Alan Brown.
