1 Technical notes on version 2.3
9 Multiple command/console per runscript
10 console command in runscript
13 State file updated on job term
16 Duplicate Job directives
20 Improved status commands for Bat
21 Spooling/despooling status
22 Implement ftruncate for NFS devices
23 Add long term statistics job table
28 kes Refactor parts of stored/mount.c
30 ebl Add sanity checks for VolWriteTime and VolReadTime
31 ebl Take care of bad clock changes while computing VolWriteTime
32 and VolReadTime. This should fix or limit #1066
33 kes Correct error string numbers in dird/catreq.c
34 kes Restructure reserving, acquiring, and mounting volumes. Calls to
35 autochanger are deferred for mount.c -- simplifes the code.
37 kes Do not prune any running job. It just fails the job.
38 kes Lock the volumes when changing dev->reserved_device and marking
39 the volume unused otherwise the device can get reserved by
40 another job before the volume is released, thus blocking it.
42 kes Correctly detect Ubuntu systems, and add ubuntu platform directory.
43 kes Fix bug #1063, reuse of freed ptr in list nextvol.
44 kes Release regex compile buffer in filed/job.c
45 kes Add proper type of const char in sql_create.c
46 kes Turn off debug in daemon termination routines
47 kes Move free_volume_list() before devices are freed in stored.c
48 kes Fix reference to uninitalized stack variables in bregex.c.
49 This should correct bug #1067.
51 kes Fix possible seg fault in SD when freeing a volume entry.
53 kes Implement unload_dev() before swap device.
54 ebl Add statistics prunning with option and menu
55 kes Separate unload_dev() from unload_other_device() in autochanger.c

58 when ACLs enabled on SGI but no ACL exists.
59 ebl Fix small segfault in bacula-sd when debug level is 500
60 kes Modify run_program() and run_program_full_output() to use
61 call by reference for the results string. This corrects a long
62 standing problem where the address of the string may be changed
63 in the subroutine but not in the calling program.
65 kes Re-enable code to remember last volume mounted on a non-tape
67 kes Add patch supplied in bug #1068 that fixes a SD crash when using
68 a Virtual autochanger.
69 kes Generate correct JobMedia records during spooling/despooling when
70 running concurrent jobs. Thanks to Tom Ivar Helbekkmo
71 <tih@hamartun.priv.no> for excellent analysis and testing.
73 kes Tweak hash algorithm for htable using Martin Simmons idea
74 for doing a circular shift.
75 kes Remember what volume is in VTLs (previously turned off for
77 kes Analysis of JobMedia records by Tom Ivar Helbekkmo <tih@hamartun.priv.no>
78 pointed out some problems in creating JobMedia records during
79 spooling with concurrent jobs. Fix the problem by updating the
80 start file position before despooling and generate a jobmedia
81 record at the end of despooling.
83 kes Fix handling of JobMedia records during spooling and when a
84 Volume is changed without actually writing data to the Volume.
86 kes Rework certain SD locking based on gdb tracebacks of deadlocks
87 sent by Eric. This code now uses only the volume_lock() rather
88 than the reservations lock when at EOM and acquiring a new
90 kes Ensure only one exit point in several subroutines.
92 kes Implement bsock code to permit locking. Use the new code in Verify
93 in the FD to prevent the heartbeat thread from disrupting the Verify
95 kes Modify SD locking to eliminate locking the reservations system from
96 outside the system. Use the volume lock when getting media data
97 and reserving a new volume at end of media.
98 kes Add Eric's volume_unused() fix to stored.c so that Volumes found
99 when SD starts are not locked into place.
101 kes Fix error compiling runscript code on 64 bit machines.
102 kes Tweak Win32 mount point code.
103 kes Fix a couple of bugs in the accurate code (bad sscanf, buffer not
104 cleared giving bad file estimate).
105 kes Implement BIG_MALLOC in htable code. Runs 2.5 times faster for
108 kes Keep Schedule run lists in order as suggested by
111 kes Implement autostart scripts for Debian.
112 ebl Implement upgrade catalog scripts.
114 ebl Apply jobstat patch for long term statistics. Have to implement
115 purge stats command and upgrade scripts.

124 kes Attempt to do correct handling of Win32 mount points. Should
126 kes Fix Win32 FD backup/restore memory leak due to improper termination
127 of BackupRead/Write. This fixes bug# 1038.
129 ebl Reduce memory usage for accurate backup, working only with ctime
130 and mtime. (not all Lstat field)
131 About 40MB for my linux system (400.000 files)
133 kes Add dcr->reserved_volume flag that allows us to release a volume
134 even if it is not vol->released. This allows maxvol2 to work when
135 Volumes expire and we are already writing to the device (i.e. a
136 volume is pulled out from under us by another job terminating after
137 we reserve the drive).
139 ebl Permit multiple command/console per runscript definition.
140 RunScript { command = /bin/true ; command = /bin/false ... }
141 ebl Add RunsWhen = AfterVSS to runscript. You can execute a command
142 (restart an application) just after the VSS snapshot on windows.
143 kes Don't zap dcr values during release_volume() as they might
144 have the next Volume to be mounted.
145 kes Fix AIX prototype.
147 kes Second cut of drive switching during backup.
150 kes Update Win32 version of wxWidgets to most recent version.
151 kes Tweak Copy job details.
152 kes Rework dir_find_next_appendable_volume to make a bit more effort
153 to find a suitable volume before giving up.
155 kes Make ask_sysop_to_create... to return if waken from wait.
156 This helps get out of blocked conditions.
157 kes Experimental implementation of switch_device in reservations.
158 kes Implement FD version to allow easier protocol changes.
159 kes Add Plugin Options string -- not yet passed to FD.
160 kes Implement PluginOptions ACL.
162 kes Attempt to correct problems with restores with autochangers and
163 use counts going negative
164 kes Rework SD status command and implement API for bat. Implements
165 header, runing waitreservation, devices, volumes, spooling,
166 and terminated status keywords.
167 .status storage=xxx <keyword>
168 kes Clarify TLS error message by adding double quotes around name.
169 kes Simplify SD/FD status code by putting api flag in STATUS_PKT
170 kes Pass jcr to tls routines so debug messages can be handled better.
171 kes Rework jobq resource allocation code, and possibly fix a bug
172 that caused reference counts to get out of sync.
174 kes Rename fd/dir plugin to use Bacula standard underscore.
175 kes Plugin work -- bring dir up to fd level.
176 kes Start implementation of VTL code
177 kes Fix Win32 build after adding new cats subroutine.
179 kes First cut at Duplicate Job implementation.

187 SD, and to fix Win32 build.
188 kes Win32 build is now working.
190 kes Implement 'MaxFullInterval' and start 'MaxDiffInterval' based on
191 some ideas in patch from Scott Bailey.
192 kes Begin implementation of duplicate Job control.
193 kes Fix some of Win32 build after recent additions.
194 kes Apply patch from Frank Kardel that implements 'honor no dump flag',
195 which causes the FD to detect whether or not the OS has the
196 honor no dump bit (*BSD systems), and if so, to skip backing up
197 any file with this bit set. The feature is enabled by setting
198 'honor no dump flag = yes' in the Options section of a FileSet.
200 kes Correct po warning message with datarootdir
201 kes Implement more code in dird.c to put configuration parsing in
202 a class rather than use globals.
203 kes Restructure SD status command for implementation of bat API
206 kes Suppress incorrect 'Will not descend from x into y' messages.
207 kes Eliminate FORTIFY_CODE=2 bug, and make first cut at removing
208 daemon globals used by parser.

216 on non-mempool object)
217 kes First cut of converting FD .status to work with bat API.
219 .status client=XXX header
220 .status client=XXX running
221 .status client=XXX terminated
222 kes Implement first cut of Copy Job.
223 kes Implement Catalog in Pool resource. It overrides catalog specified
224 in the Client resource.
226 kes Apply patch (with some difficulties) from Joao Henrique Freitas
227 <joaohf@gmail.com>, which adds support for libdbi as a Bacula
229 kes Add patch from Martin Schmid scm@apsag.com that checks to see if
230 ftruncate() actually works. In the case of some (cheap) NAS devices,
231 it does not, and so recycling NAS Volumes does not work. The code
232 simply unlink()s the file, then recreates it. This fixes bug #1011.
234 kes First incomplete cut of big malloc blocks for htable.
235 kes Tweak plugin code.
237 kes Plugin debug code + tweak a couple bat dialog layouts
239 kes Fix creating first JobMedia record during Migration to include

255 kes Remove a redundant jcr argument to find_files, match_files, and
257 kes Implement '.status dir header|scheduled|running|terminated' that
258 prints the requested status section. With the exception of the
259 header, the other reports have fields separated by tabs (\t).
261 kes Apply patch from Peter Much <pmc@citylink.dinoex.sub.org> that fixes
262 a resource embedded run command to find a since time if no explicit
263 since time was supplied on the command line.
264 kes Apply state-file.patch sent by Allan Black <Allan.Black@btconnect.com>
265 that updates the state file at job termination time in addition to
266 when the daemon terminates.
268 kes First version where a plugin did a backup.
269 bpipe-fd.so created a backup file, wrote a test
270 string to it, and Bacua could restore this fabricated file.
272 kes Implement DB Driver = string for the DBI driver.
273 kes Remove all old bdb_xxx.c code. Add dummy routines to bdb.c
274 kes First cut of code for loading Win32 plugin dlls. Implement
275 dlopen, dlsym, dlclose, and dlerror in src/win32/compat/compat.cpp
276 and implement a dlfcn.h file based on opengroup's definitions of
279 kes First cut plugin directives.
281 kes Apply patch from bug #1049 to prevent stripping the path on a
283 kes Attempt to fix bug #1047 where stripping a path corrupts the
284 heap. Waiting for feedback.

296 kes Fixed important spelling error in doc -- bug #1045.
298 ebl Fix bextract to be able to extract non-portable Win32 data to
300 kes Move initialization of read/write res lock earlier in the code.
301 This fixes the crash with a null conf file. This fixes bug
303 kes Redefine CURES in lib/parse_conf to be URES and move it all
304 into lib/parse_conf.c -- this responds to bug #1042, but does
305 not fix it. The fix is not to compile with FORTIFY_SOURCE.
306 kes Backport to 2.2.8 fix de-referencing a NULL pointer in the scanner from
307 the trunk SVN. I don't think this was reported as a bug.
309 ebl Fix a bug during tape initialization with MTSETDRVBUFFER.
311 kes Fix Win32 build with new .def files and DLL_IMP_EXP ...
313 kes Add DataDespooling and DataCommitting status (committing is
314 the last despooling).
315 kes Finish implementation of new reservations code noted below.
317 kes Fix bsnprintf for float point numbers. I broke recently when
318 parameterizing some variables. This fixes bug #1036.
319 kes Undo recent reservations changes ... will apply them later
320 when they work better.
322 ebl Fixes #1034 which cause mysql to hang the connection after 8h
323 ebl Change default statistics target of filename.name and path.path
324 fields for PostgreSQL. This speeds lookup by indexes. Thanks
326 kes A few more tweaks to new reservation code. Make sure to clear
327 vol released flag when retaking volume. When reading label and
328 label is bad mark volume unused. When recycling, mark volume
329 unused so it can be renamed.
331 kes Fix reserve_volume() so it doesn't release a volume in use
332 (i.e. a volume entry not marked released). This should be
333 the last part needed to fix bug #1018.
335 kes Move Heartbeat documentation from Job to Director resource.
336 This fixes bug #1033.
338 kes Fix existing switch drive SD code to call autochanger to release
339 any old volume. This must be done to keep the autochanger from
340 releasing subsequently newly reserved volumes in doing a close().
341 This should fix bug #1018.
342 kes Fail if attempting to get console input in batch mode. This
343 should help fail RunScript console commands that are incomplete.
344 kes First cut implementing switch_drive() in SD (not actually called).
346 kes Implement first cut running console commands in a RunScript.
348 ebl Fixes bug #1028 where 'Selection Type' option was not usable

357 kes Fix entry point for edit_job_codes() so that Win32 builds.
358 kes Fix seg fault Frank Sweetser reports in regression testing
359 on his systems. The problem was that the original author of
360 bsnprintf.c did not take into account the side effects of
361 using ++x in the argument to a #define.
362 kes Make SD protocol backward compatible with version 2.2.x.
364 ebl Fixes bug #1015 where bacula failed to restore acl to a socket
365 because Bacula no longer restores sockets.
366 ebl Always use ignorecase fileset option on win32 FD.
368 kes Apply patch from Michael Stapelberg <michael@stapelberg.de>
369 that implements double quoting include names in conf files,
370 and also allows piping input by having the first character
371 be a vertical bar (|).
372 kes Apply patch from Bastian Friedrich <bastian.friedrich@collax.com>
373 that implement %f in RunScripts to pass the FileSet name.
374 kes Skip leading | when lex input comes from a pipe as suggested
375 by Michael Stapelberg <michael@stapelberg.de>.
377 kes Apply patch for bsmtp Win32 daylight savings time fix supplied by
378 Nerijus Baliunas <nerijus@users.sourceforge.net>
380 kes Implement Plugin Directory and plugin events.
382 kes Implement a security enhancement: TLS authentication but no
383 encryption. Enabled by setting 'TLS Authentication = yes'.
384 Note when this is on, TLS encryption is turned OFF!
386 kes This patch corrects a problem where the maximum concurrent storage
387 jobs counter gets out of sync during restore jobs causing jobs to
388 'wait on max Storage jobs'. This patch fixes bug #1009.
390 kes This patch fixes bcopy so that it produces correct Volumes.
392 kes This patch eliminates spurious output to the console during a VerifyVolume
393 job that contains encrypted data. It fixes bug #1024.
395 kes This patch prevents the 'status dir' command from trying to use a scratch
396 volume and possibly moving it from one pool to another. This patch fixes
399 kes Add new include to postgresql.c suggested by Marc Cousins so
400 that it compiles correctly with pgre version 8.3.
402 kes Fix --archivedir addition to configure. Replace it with
403 --with-archivedir in configure.in This fixes the regression
405 kes This patch fixes bug #1012 where the job is canceled because
406 of Max Run Time exceeded when the job has not yet started.
408 ebl Apply Richard Mortimer patch that fixes #1016 when there are more than
409 one 'part' to write. Instead of each part being stored on disk,
410 written to DVD, then deleted from disk, all parts are written to disk,
411 and only the last is written and deleted from disk.
412 kes This patch fixes the status command to include the formating string for
413 JS_AttrInsterting. It fixes bug #1021.
414 kes This patch should fix the Mac OS X build problem on the latest
415 Darwin, where sys/types.h was not included correctly (apparently
416 due to a change in the Mac headers). The solution was to explicitly
417 ensure that it is defined for the ./configure.
418 This patch also has a rebuild of configure that includes the Debian
419 qt4 patch to check for qmake-qt4. This patch fixes bug #1020.
420 kes This patch should ensure that queued messages to the console are
421 displayed as soon as possible. It should fix bug 1007, but has been
422 reported not to work.
424 kes This patch fixes the infinite loop when trying to increase the
425 maximum number of volumes in a Pool during the add command.
426 This patch fixes bug #1008.
428 Release Version 2.2.6
430 db Remove extra data on estimate command in joblist for bat.
432 kes Cleanup of code in SD that sets the LastWritten date. This doesn't
433 really change anything, but is the beginning of doing it *right*.
434 To do it completely right the LastWritten date must be passed to
435 the SD, but it is not yet done.
436 kes Minor tweaks to some bat restore SQL.
437 kes This patch fixes bug #1003 where putting the message output from
438 a Verify job into the catalog results in a recursive loop. The problem
439 seems to show up only with postgresql (to be verified).
440 kes Correct %x to %p in postgresql debug statement.
442 kes Fix bug #942 where lots of emails where generated when the heartbeat
443 interval was low and Bacula wanted a different tape from the one in
446 ebl Add new SD despooling attributes and Dir inserting attributes
447 job status codes in the catalog (Status table).
449 ebl Use qmake-qt4 instead of qmake when available (debian system).
451 kes Add a security warning to src/cats/make_catalog_backup.in indicating
452 that passing the password via the command line (arg 3) is insecure.
453 This responds to bug #990 (it doesn't fix it).
455 kes Set default debug_level to zero. This corrects bugs #991 and #993.
456 kes Fix a crash in bat when it cannot connect to the Director for example
457 if the Director is not running.
458 kes Remove redundant INDEX (JobId) from File table in the trunk.
460 kes Make explicit exception to GPL in LICENSE to permit linking
461 the Win32 FD with Microsoft VSS code.

464 kes Apply the patch to optionally add a timestamp in the debug output
465 submitted by Mariusz Czulada <manieq@wp.eu>.
467 ebl Use PQerrorMessage instead of PQresultErrorMessage in postgresql
468 backend (sql_strerror). Fixes bug #989
470 kes Apply Michael Short's <mdshort@gmail.com> Win32 regress patch.
471 It applied with no problems.
472 kes Add PATH command to SunOS part of mtx-changer.in so that sed and
474 kes Redirect stderror to stdin on mt status command in mtx-changer.in
475 since the status is returned on stderr on Solaris.
476 kes Activate Close button on tray-monitor window. This fixes
478 kes Check for NULL item in parse_conf.c before calling it. In the
479 case of Device, there is no item and this caused a seg fault when
480 Device appears in the conf file.
481 kes Add a #define __CONFIG_H when including config.h in bacula.h. This
482 avoids pulling in config.h multiple times in some new code.
484 kes Fix spurious warning message printed when creating a volume with
485 a LabelFormat. This fixes bug #976.
487 Release Version 2.2.5
489 kes Add JobId in place of Job name in all the Jmsg() output.

499 kes Fix doc issue. This fixes bug #963.
500 kes Fix listing performance problems in bat. Pointed out by
502 kes Remove old debug code.
503 kes Fix bat code that tests for Win32. This should fix bug #968

506 ebl Fix #969 where user can't change Replace option in restore menu.
508 kes Save jcr in thread specific data (tsd) for each thread.
509 kes Make Dmsg() print JobId as -%u.
510 kes Make Jmsg, Emsg, and others automatically pickup the jobid
511 for the thread if it exists.
512 kes Remove old reservation debug jid code.
513 kes Remove get_jcr_from_tid() from OpenSSL and tls code.
514 ebl Add an option that permit to specify spool size in job
515 definition. (Applying patches/testing/spoolsize_per_job.patch).
516 You must upgrade SD and DIR at the same time.
517 dvl Add new configuration item --archivedir
518 dvl Adjust regression tests to use tmp not /tmp. This will allow
519 multiple concurrent runs of the regression tests.
521 kes Fix race condition that drops final block written to volume.
522 This happens in rare cases with multiple simultaneous jobs
523 when the Volume fills. This fixes bug #964. May be related
524 to bug #935 and possibly #903.
525 kes Eliminate more strerror() and replace with bstrerror().
526 kes Remove BSD getopt and replace with unrestricted IBM version.
527 kes Fix Win32 build for changed calling sequences.
528 kes More tweaks to the mount volume routines to get everything
529 right. Changed variable name from find to have_vol, which is
530 much easier to understand.
531 kes Enhance btimer debug code.
533 kes Fix FD->SD authorization failure, which was due to spurious
534 wakeups from a pthread_cond_timedwait(). Simply check the
535 predicate before continuing. This fixes bug #953.
536 kes Add const char where needed (more to do). Remove temp debug code.
538 kes Setup SQLite busy handler before doing queries. Fixes bug #967.
539 kes Don't overwrite error message in check_tables_version.
541 kes Unlock batch insert tables with same calls used elsewhere.
542 kes Allow starting 59 jobs a second.
543 kes Make SD session key more random.

549 kes Add JobId to all Dmsg() output.
550 kes Put some FD auth code on dbglvl rather than fixed.
551 kes Return insert attributes error message in db msg buffer to avoid
552 false error messages. Helps fix bug #966.
553 kes Separate batch init error messages. Probably helps fix bug #966.
554 kes Make SD code that contructs attribute insert check string lengths
556 kes If Dir gets an error during inserting attributes, cancel SD.
557 This reduces unnecessary error messages.
559 kes Correct search boolean for getting Volume info
560 ebl Cleanup batch insert code. Probably fixes bug #965.
561 kes Back out one small change to the reservation system (reserving a volume).
562 kes Rework how a Volume is mounted. It is now much more intelligent and
563 will always attempt to use any mounted volume if possible and reduces
564 calls to the Director asking about volumes.
566 kes Turn off some code when batch insert not enabled.
567 kes Edit FD name in connect error messages.
568 kes Rework the reservation system to take into account that the Director
569 might give us a Volume that is different from the current one being
570 used, and to ensure that we don't exceed Maximum Volume Jobs.
571 This fixes (mostly) bug #947 ' Maximum Volume Jobs = 1 produces
572 fatal error with multiple jobs running'
573 kes Add more debug code in reservation system.
574 kes Implement maxvol-test to check bug #947.
576 kes Add code to handle tray monitor separated from Win32 FD.
577 kes Fix display of Win32 tray monitor after reboot. Fixes bug #952.
579 kes Add missed return in fixing verify bug -- trunk only.

581 kes Fix ANSI tape labeling. Fix restoring ANSI labeled Volumes.
583 kes Increase the max block size to 4MB fixes bug #957.
584 kes ERABT if user sets min block size > max block size. Fixes bug #956.
585 kes Apply 2.2.4-poll-mount fix, that resolves bug #908 where a tape
586 is not properly mounted (recognized) during a poll.
587 kes Apply 2.2.4-verify patch that resolves bug #958. A Verify catalog
588 Job that has differences reports Verify OK.

925 we do not descend into it. This is a first cut. They seem to
926 be backed up, but restore is not yet tested.
927 kes Remove restore_blocking in tls code when shutting a socket to leave
928 it in blocking mode. Hopefully this will fix the encryption bug
929 reported by Frank Sweetser.

1347 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
1348 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
1349 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
1350 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place

1396 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
1397 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
1398 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
1399 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
1400 error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.
1402 kes Make database name and user configurable

1434 for SD requests and for the list nextvolume command.
1436 kes Correct Qmsg() that was not updated correctly when committing a
1437 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
1439 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
1440 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
1441 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
1443 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
1444 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
1445 amount of duplicated code.

1474 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
1475 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director
1476 to after we drop privileges. This avoids the need for both root
1477 and bacula access to the DB.
1478 kes Correct a misplaced variable definition in src/filed/backup.c
1479 kes Correct how the new batch insert db_create_attributes_record()
1480 uses the arguments. Caused a seg fault in bscan.
1481 kes Implement lock() and unlock() methods in DEVICE class.
1482 Implement block() and set_block(xx) methods in DEVICE class.
1483 kes Modify bnet_connect() so that it uses time() to check for the
1484 wait time expiring (on some OSes, some system calls may not
1485 return immediately).
1486 kes Modify Verify to obtain the previous JobId when it is actually
1487 running rather than at schedule time (as it was in 1.38.x).
1488 kes Fix src/job.c to handle MaxWaitTime correctly. This should

1520 kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
1521 modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.

1537 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
1538 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
1540 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
1541 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
1542 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
1544 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
1545 than English. Fixes bug #788.
1547 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.

1564 RecyclePool = Scratch
1568 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
1569 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
1570 that returns more information and will make it easier
1571 to interface to the Director from a program.
1573 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
1574 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
1575 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
1576 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
1577 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
1578 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
1579 the Changer Command to an empty string.
1581 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
1582 in a single write() request rather than in two.
1583 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
1584 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool

1598 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
1599 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
1600 in the case of orphaned records.
1601 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
1602 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
1603 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
1604 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
1605 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
1606 happens to the ScratchPool?
1607 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
1608 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
1609 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
1610 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
1611 times are in Bacula units.
1612 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
1614 kes Update projects list.
1616 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
1617 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
1618 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.

1620 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
1622 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
1623 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
1624 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
1626 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
1627 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
1629 Switch to using Subversion
1630 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
1632 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
1633 plus the entrypoints.
1634 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
1635 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
1636 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1638 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1639 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1641 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1642 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
1643 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
1645 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
1646 problem is with read or append.
1648 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1649 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1650 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1651 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1652 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1653 (i.e. migration jobs).
1654 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1655 a memory leak problem.
1656 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1657 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1658 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1659 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1660 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1661 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1662 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1663 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1664 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1665 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1666 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1667 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1668 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1669 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1670 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1671 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1673 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1675 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
