310 kes Implement Windows reparse points -- similar to directories, but
311 we do not descend into it. This is a first cut. They seem to
312 be backed up, but restore is not yet tested.
313 kes Remove restore_blocking in tls code when shutting a socket to leave
314 it in blocking mode. Hopefully this will fix the encryption bug
315 reported by Frank Sweetser.
316 kes When opening a file for backup, tell the OS that we are going to

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

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

733 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
734 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
735 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
736 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place

782 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
783 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
784 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
785 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an

823 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
825 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
826 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
827 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
829 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
830 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
831 amount of duplicated code.

860 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
861 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director

906 kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
907 modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.

923 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
924 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
926 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
927 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
928 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
930 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
931 than English. Fixes bug #788.
933 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.
935 You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.
936 It will be fixed soon.

938 trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
940 kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
941 no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
942 set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
943 ebl finish RecyclePool feature
944 Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
945 when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do
946 update volume=xxx frompool
947 To use it, add RecyclePool = aPool to your Pool resource
950 RecyclePool = Scratch
954 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
955 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
956 that returns more information and will make it easier
957 to interface to the Director from a program.
959 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
960 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
961 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
962 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
963 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
964 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
965 the Changer Command to an empty string.
967 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
968 in a single write() request rather than in two.
969 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
970 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool

986 in the case of orphaned records.
987 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
988 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
989 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
990 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
991 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
992 happens to the ScratchPool?
993 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
994 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
995 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
996 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
997 times are in Bacula units.
998 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
1000 kes Update projects list.
1002 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
1003 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
1004 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.
1005 kes Fix dird/ua_cmds.c so that a cancel command checks if the
1006 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
1008 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
1009 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
1010 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
1012 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
1013 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
1015 Switch to using Subversion
1016 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
1018 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
1019 plus the entrypoints.
1020 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
1021 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
1022 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1024 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1025 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1027 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1028 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
1029 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
1031 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
1032 problem is with read or append.
1034 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1035 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1036 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1037 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1038 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1039 (i.e. migration jobs).
1040 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1041 a memory leak problem.
1042 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1043 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1044 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1045 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1046 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1047 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1048 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1049 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1050 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1051 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1052 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1053 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1054 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1055 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1056 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1057 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1059 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1061 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
