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

152 kes Rework the prune_volumes() subroutine so that after purging and
153 no volume found in desired pool, it will check for a scratch
154 volume. This prevents recycling the whole scratch pool.
155 kes Add code to status storage to print boffset_t (largefile support).
157 kes Move qwt (Graphics libarary for Qt4) to depkgs.
158 kes You now need a --with-qwt=<dir> to be able to build bat.

189 during despooling in SD to blocking. This means that other threads
190 can work with the device structure, in particular the reservations
191 system while despooling.
193 kes Fix return in reservation message queue that missed clearing
194 the jcr lock (implemented 26Jun07 below).

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

261 kes Tweak debug code in autochanger reservation.
263 kes Add some additional locking in the cats directory in subroutines
264 that modify packet variables called from batch insert.
265 kes Rework how dcrs are allocated. new_dcr() can now be called
266 with an existing pointer, and it will simply clean it up.

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

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

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

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

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

733 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
735 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
736 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
737 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
739 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
740 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
741 amount of duplicated code.
742 kes Do volume pruning only for the Media Type desired (reduces pruning time
743 if multiple Media Types are in the same pool).
744 kes Implement more detailed info in the Job report for the Bacula version

755 of other prune/purge subroutines.
756 kes Add an insanity check when starting a new tape job to ensure
757 that the tape position has not been changed. If so fail the

770 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
771 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director

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

833 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
834 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
836 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
837 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
838 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
840 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
841 than English. Fixes bug #788.
843 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.
845 You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.
846 It will be fixed soon.
847 If you want to use this, you can apply
848 trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
850 kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
851 no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
852 set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
853 ebl finish RecyclePool feature
854 Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
855 when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do
856 update volume=xxx frompool
857 To use it, add RecyclePool = aPool to your Pool resource
860 RecyclePool = Scratch
864 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
865 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
866 that returns more information and will make it easier
867 to interface to the Director from a program.
869 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
870 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
871 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
872 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
873 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
874 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
875 the Changer Command to an empty string.
877 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
878 in a single write() request rather than in two.
879 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
880 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool
882 kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files
883 to be truncated. This fixes bug #763.
884 kes Add FD event sequence order prepared by Eric -- for RunScripts.
885 kes Fix 12am/pm bug as reported in bug #782 -- scheduler problem.
887 kes Apply Eric's ClientRunScriptAfter patch to 2.0 and 2.1.
888 ebl Use btime_t instead of uint64_t in media patch.

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

978 kes Add back missing @ in Win32 Makefile.
979 kes Change 'Device not configured to autolabel' from INFO
981 kes Fix jobq.c to restart failed jobs when Reschedule Times = 0
982 which should restart an indefinite # of times.
983 kes Fix configure --help to print --with-mysql[=DIR]. Same for
984 other DIR specifications.
986 rn Fix msvc build problems. Fix bacula.dll exports for msvc build.
987 Fix path quoting in SQLite scripts.
988 Fix problems with SHGetFolderPath.
990 kes Create patches/2.0.1-restart.patch. Fixes bug #755.
992 kes Fix Job restart on error bug that promotes an Inc to a Full
993 backup. This should fix bug #755.
994 kes Add qt-console and first cut of code.
998 kes Fix Bacula->Documentation link on Win32 to point to index.html
999 instead of bacula.html. Fixed bug #750.
1000 kes Return JobId in db_get_job_record() when JobId==0. This should
1002 kes Do not release source pointers when restarting a failed job.
1004 kes Add dynamic dll entry point for SHGetFolderPath to Win32 code.
1005 This *should* fix bug #747.
1006 kes Modify winbacula.nsi to substitute with g bin_dir_cmd. Should fix
1009 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
1010 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
1011 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
1012 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
1013 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
1014 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
1016 kes Add code to indicate when the SD is spooling, spool wait, and
1017 despooling as requested by Alan Brown.
