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

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

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

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

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

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

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

795 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
796 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director

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

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

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

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

1013 Fix problems with SHGetFolderPath.
1015 kes Create patches/2.0.1-restart.patch. Fixes bug #755.
1017 kes Fix Job restart on error bug that promotes an Inc to a Full
1018 backup. This should fix bug #755.
1019 kes Add qt-console and first cut of code.
1023 kes Fix Bacula->Documentation link on Win32 to point to index.html
1024 instead of bacula.html. Fixed bug #750.

1027 kes Do not release source pointers when restarting a failed job.
1029 kes Add dynamic dll entry point for SHGetFolderPath to Win32 code.
1030 This *should* fix bug #747.
1031 kes Modify winbacula.nsi to substitute with g bin_dir_cmd. Should fix
1034 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
1035 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
1036 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
1037 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
1038 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
1039 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
1041 kes Add code to indicate when the SD is spooling, spool wait, and
1042 despooling as requested by Alan Brown.
