1 Technical notes on version 2.4
6 ebl Apply 2.4.2-cancel-non-running-jobs.patch to be able to cancel
7 a non created job faster.
9 kes This should correct bug #1159 where Migration does not properly
10 respect the Migration Low Bytes directive.
12 ebl Fix typo in configure.in that breaks --with-db-password option
14 kes This code should fix the race condition that leads to a Director
15 crash at job end time when the job list is updated. This was reported
18 kes Remove all double quotes from SQLite creating script and
19 replace by single quotes as suggested by John Huttley.
21 kes Fix SQL case problem that may cause the failure of DiskToCatalog
23 kes Copy missing storage name into edit buffer. As far as I can tell
24 this never caused a bug.
26 ebl Remove catalog dependency for bcopy
27 ebl Modify catalog scripts to have an easier packaging integration,
28 using default variables.
29 Make difference between SQLite3 and SQLite in db_get_type()
31 kes Attempt to fix bug #1128 InChanger flag cleared during Migration
32 job when reading from one autochanger and writing to another.
34 kes Add more information to SD acquire.c INFO messages.
35 kes Fix NULL Volume name error when reading and the drive must
38 kes Fix a Verify InitCatalog problem where in certain cases
39 a garbage filename may be entered in the verification database. This
41 kes Add space after version before date in bat about dialog.
43 kes Fix seg fault in Dir during estimate command with no level value
44 given. This fixes bug #1140.
46 kes Add message to migration job when the target job is already migrated.
47 This closes bug #1129.
51 kes When a migration job actually runs, re-check the Job record
52 and skip if the job is already migrated. This should
53 significantly reduce the problems with bug #1129.
55 kes Break the do_swapping into do_unload, do_swapping, and
56 do_load. It is much more logical that way.
57 kes Implement a set_dcr_from_vol subroutine in acquire.c for
58 reading volumes. This allows the dcr to be refreshed after being
59 zapped when the wrong volume is mounted.
60 This should fix bug #1126 -- During multiple tape restore, bacula
61 does not ask for physical tape change, but rereads same tape
63 kes Apply patch submitted for bug #1107 with a small modification.
64 This fixes a bug where bcopy copied too many records.
65 kes Make some tweaks to bsmtp based on patch submitted in bug #1124.
67 kes Make the default bat restore Pool be Any. This fixes bug #1118.
70 kes Fix bug #1125 which reports a SD crash at the end of a tape
71 during restore. It was a debug statement that should not be
74 ebl fix #1034 by setting big timeout on mysql connections
76 kes Do partial integration of the Win32 bat build created by Eric.
77 kes Fix bat not to block.
79 kes Ensure that SD tried to mount a volume not in an autochanger
80 at least once before asking for operator intervention.
81 kes Fix a pthreads bug in the Win32 pthreads emulation code.
85 kes Clear in-use bit on vol when unused while swapping.
87 kes Remove sleep at end of ./bacula
88 kes Clear hash packet for hardlinked files correctly. This corrects
89 a long standing bug where hardlinked files selected individually
90 would occasionally not be restored.
92 kes Apply Eric's patch to ensure that autoprune does not return
93 a Volume not in the autochanger unless requested to do so.
94 kes Correct bat restore display of multiple drives. This fixes
96 kes Do find_a_volume() each time an unload is done. This
97 fixes the failure of maxvol2-test.
99 Release Beta version 2.4.1-b2
101 kes Use Qmsg() in job.c watchdog callback.
103 kes Release main control rwlock if ABORTing.
104 kes Make watchdog connect timeout queue messages rather than sending
105 directly to avoid lock conflicts with the real thread.
106 kes Remove const char that causes problems with Python, which has
107 older 'incorrect' headers.
108 kes Add const char in dbd.c to avoid compiler warnings.
110 kes Fix mtx-changer to detect both versions of Ubuntu (Debian)
111 mt. This fixes bug #1116.
112 kes Fix failure of 2drive-concurrent-test. Always read label;
113 clear_unload() only after drive is defined in acquire_for_read().
115 Release Beta version 2.4.1-b1
117 kes Back out bad src/lib/base64.c change.
119 kes Generally clean up the manual tape loading code. The main
120 conceptial change is that when a volume is marked to be unloaded,
121 its volume name is retained, and it is only marked as unloaded
122 when either the autoloader says it is unloaded or another tape
123 is read on that drive.
125 kes Fix a recycling problem with two autochangers reported in bug
126 #1106. This may also (unlikely) fix a second recycling bug as
128 kes Fix a SD lock volumes deadlock problem reported in bug #1100.
130 kes Fix format problem in bscan output reported in bug #1105.
132 kes Copy more data when restarting a job so that run
133 overrides are kept. This should fix bug #1094.
134 kes Backport updates to jobq.c where possible.
136 kes Fix bug where SD did not ask operator if the device could not
137 be opened. Reported by Eric.
139 kes Add dbuser to DIR conf file (replaces user).
140 kes Add --with-db-password to ./configure
141 kes Fix regress to handle db_password.
142 kes Fix a couple of pedantic compiler warnings.
143 ebl Fix bug when starting a restore on a storage that doesn't
144 have the requested MediaType.
146 kes More work on word alignments -- eliminate all ints from
147 the configuration routines.
149 kes Fix bug reported by Scott Barninger where the bacula script
150 refers to scripts in the wrong directory. Needed to meet the
151 requirements of recent FHS location changes.
152 kes Fix word alignment problem on non-Intel 64 bit machines
153 such as Solaris. This should fix bug #1097 -- bus error in SD.
155 kes Add missing win32/patches/wxWidgets.patch to 2.4 repository.
157 Release Version 2.4.0
159 kes Update version to reflect the magnitude of the SD changes.
161 kes Make sure to clear JS_WaitMedia when operator mounts a Volume.
162 This fixes bug #1095.
164 kes Add create_postgresql_database.sql to Win32 installer. Should
165 fix problem reported by Juilio Monteiro.
166 kes Get correct slot when auto unloading a device. This fixes bug
169 kes Fix multiple media restore.
170 kes Make DEVICE Slot private and access it via a method.
171 Allows better control over when it is set and cleared.
172 kes Fix possible seg fault if SQL error.
174 kes Add debug code to SD.
175 kes Fix renaming a Volume, which used the wrong Volume name.
177 kes If operator has rewind tape, print warning, release tape and
178 try once more. If tape is positioned somewhere, something went
179 wrong, so mark the tape in error and try once more. Previously
180 this error was fatal, now it produces an error message.
181 kes Ensure correct volume name displayed during restore
182 kes Ensure that Volume is mounted for restore.
184 kes Fix a few more Coverity reported problems.
186 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b4
188 kes Enhance a couple of SD debug messages.
189 kes Tweak unload flag setting and ensure it is set during swap.
191 ebl Fix #1091 about bad output in estimate command.
193 kes Modify autochanger locking to attempt to avoid race
195 kes Make sure device not busy before doing label command.
196 kes Display open() errors except when polling. Previously too
197 many were suppressed. This should fix bug #1070.
198 kes Fix Win32 reparse points. Bacula will not recurse into any
199 reparse point directory, including mount points, unless the
200 directory is explicitly mentioned at the top level (same as
201 with Unix). A file that is linked to another file will be
202 backed up -- much as Unix does for hardlinked files.
203 This fixes bug #1041.
205 kes Remove double quotes from ChangeLog and ReleaseNotes
206 kes Remove StorageId test when pruning and recycling (Eric's changes).
207 kes Remove old form of locking when getting volumes -- causes deadlock.
209 kes Fix buffer overruns detected by Coverity.
211 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b3
213 kes Tweak joblog display.
215 kes Implement --without-qwt
216 kes Fix layout of restore tree dialog

218 with or without the QWT libaries.
220 kes Apply batfix bat cleanup patch from Riccardo.
221 kes Make sure we unload the right slot when swapping.
223 kes Improve SD reserve debug code.
224 kes Testing an improvement to free up volumes no longer in use.
226 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b2
229 kes Rework SD acquire for read to handle autochanger Volume
231 kes Implement regression that explicitly tests swapping a Volume
232 from one drive to another.
233 kes Enhance disk-changer to detect most error conditions.
234 kes Fix SD code so that it properly swaps a Volume between drives.
235 This fixes bug #1083.
237 kes Prevent a Volume that is being swapped from being freed from
238 the volume list. This will most likely fix, at least partially,
240 kes Fix strippath so that it does not get a buffer overrun and crash FD.
241 This fixes bug #1078.
242 kes Make inability to change owner/group when creating a dir only a
243 warning rather than an error.
245 ebl Fix SQL query in migration code
247 kes Force unload of volume when wrong volume mounted in SD.
249 kes Fix bat seg fault at termination.
250 kes Add Bacula generated version to bat about box.
252 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b1
254 kes Permit multiple simultaneous restores -- experiment.
256 kes Backport development stream SD reservation system changes.
259 kes Move final volume swapping code to DCR method and
260 call it from acquire_for_read().
261 kes When wrong volume is mounted during read, unload_autochanger.
263 kes Stop searching for Volumes in SD askdir if DIR returns the
264 same volume name twice in a row.
266 kes Tweak the swap Volume from one drive to another code so that
267 it now seems to work.
268 kes Resolve several problems with recycling that broke the new
269 code (these problems are in 2.2.9 as well).
270 kes Remove the volume lock when calling the sysop code.
271 kes Don't mark a reserved volume with no writers as unused otherwise
274 kes Rework class structures for VOLRES, DCR, and DEVICE to make
275 the method names a bit more logical, and for more logically
276 handling the responsibilities.
278 kes Remove redundant code in terminating the scheduler that just
279 causes a seg fault in many cases.
280 kes Cleanup releasing a volume and make it a DCR method.
281 kes Improve algorithm for detecting pre-reserved volume and
284 kes Tweak volume swapping code so it works.
285 kes Correct name overloading in mount.c
286 kes Replace released flag in VOLRES with reserved and add access
287 methods for the VOLRES class.
288 kes Prevent volume from being released while being swapped.
289 kes Refactor parts of stored/mount.c
291 ebl Add sanity checks for VolWriteTime and VolReadTime
292 ebl Take care of bad clock changes while computing VolWriteTime
293 and VolReadTime. This should fix or limit #1066
294 kes Correct error string numbers in dird/catreq.c
295 kes Restructure reserving, acquiring, and mounting volumes. Calls to
296 autochanger are deferred for mount.c -- simplifes the code.
298 kes Do not prune any running job. It just fails the job.
299 kes Lock the volumes when changing dev->reserved_device and marking
300 the volume unused otherwise the device can get reserved by
301 another job before the volume is released, thus blocking it.
304 Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b7
306 kes Close bat console windows first to eliminate error message
308 kes Remove useless code in Scheduler that causes seg fault on
310 kes Correct some SD catalog request error messages.

313 when reading past an EOS_LABEL.
314 kes Turn off unloading the autochanger in reserve.c as it just
316 kes Lock volumes when unreserving a device.
317 kes Do not mark volume unused when recycling.
318 kes When acquiring, don't mark volume unused if it is reserved (busy).
320 Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b6
322 kes Eliminate ./configure warning on po directory
323 kes Fix bug #1063, reuse of freed ptr in list nextvol.
324 kes Release regex compile buffer in filed/job.c

341 kes Re-enable code to remember last volume mounted on a non-tape
343 kes Add patch supplied in bug #1068 that fixes a SD crash when using
344 a Virtual autochanger.
345 kes Generate correct JobMedia records during spooling/despooling when
346 running concurrent jobs. Thanks to Tom Ivar Helbekkmo
347 <tih@hamartun.priv.no> for excellent analysis and testing.
349 Beta release Version 2.2.9-b3
351 kes Rework certain SD locking based on gdb tracebacks of deadlocks
352 sent by Eric. This code now uses only the volume_lock() rather
353 than the reservations lock when at EOM and acquiring a new
355 kes Ensure only one exit point in several subroutines.
357 Beta release version 2.2.9-b2
359 kes Fix to initial tape drive open to release the volume name
361 Beta release Version 2.2.9-b1
363 kes Fix to JobMedia fix.
364 kes Fix bug pointed out by Peter Much that causes the StorageId to
365 be updated when reading a tape (during migration, it could have
366 been incorrectly set to the write StorageId).
368 kes Implement autostart scripts for Debian
370 kes Fix mtx-changer.in for broken Debian mt program.
372 kes Massive commit of all fixes and back ports to create 2.2.9
374 kes Apply doc fix from bug #1062.

376 GUI. Fixes bug #1065.
377 kes Update Win32 wxWidgets to latest version.
378 kes Attempt to do correct handling of Win32 mount points. Should
380 kes Fix Win32 FD backup/restore memory leak due to improper termination

382 kes Add const to AIX prototype for initgroups()
384 kes Undo bug #1047 heap overrun fix as it is not correct.
386 kes Fix creating first JobMedia record during Migration to include
387 proper index. This caused slow restores of migrated jobs.

400 kes Fixed important spelling error in doc -- bug #1045.
402 kes Move initialization of read/write res lock earlier in the code.
403 This fixes the crash with a null conf file. This fixes bug
405 kes Redefine CURES in lib/parse_conf to be URES and move it all
406 into lib/parse_conf.c -- this responds to bug #1042, but does
407 not fix it. The fix is not to compile with FORTIFY_SOURCE.
408 kes Backport fix de-referencing a NULL pointer in the scanner from
409 the trunk SVN. I don't think this was reported as a bug.
411 Beta release Version 2.2.8
413 kes Re-enable the new job code editing (%f).
415 kes Fix bsnprintf for float point numbers. I broke recently when
416 parameterizing some variables. This fixes bug #1036.
418 kes Move Heartbeat documentation from Job to Director resource.
419 This fixes bug #1033.
421 kes Fix existing switch drive SD code to call autochanger to release
422 any old volume. This must be done to keep the autochanger from
423 releasing subsequently newly reserved volumes in doing a close().
424 This should possibly fix bugs #1032 and #1018.
425 kes Apply big backport of current SVN SD code that corrects a number
426 of race conditions. This is a first step in fixing bug #1018.
428 ebl Fixes bug #1028 where "Selection Type" option was not usable
432 Release Version 2.2.7
434 kes Partial back out (disabled) %f job code editing because it
435 does not build on Win32.
436 kes Fix seg fault Frank Sweetser reports in regression testing
437 on his systems. The problem was that the original author of
438 bsnprintf.c did not take into account the side effects of
439 using ++x in the argument to a #define.
441 kes Apply patch from Michael Stapelberg <michael@stapelberg.de>
442 that implements double quoting include names in conf files,
443 and also allows piping input by having the first character
444 be a vertical bar (|).
445 kes Apply patch from Bastian Friedrich <bastian.friedrich@collax.com>
446 that implement %f in RunScripts to pass the FileSet name.
447 kes Skip leading | when lex input comes from a pipe as suggested
448 by Michael Stapelberg <michael@stapelberg.de>.
450 kes Apply patch for bsmtp Win32 daylight savings time fix supplied by
451 Nerijus Baliunas <nerijus@users.sourceforge.net>
453 kes This patch corrects a problem where the maximum concurrent storage
454 jobs counter gets out of sync during restore jobs causing jobs to
455 'wait on max Storage jobs'. This patch fixes bug #1009.
457 kes Add new include to postgresql.c suggested by Marc Cousins so
458 that it compiles correctly with pgre version 8.3. Also fix
459 misuse of %x with pointer (should be %p).
461 kes This patch fixes bcopy so that it produces correct Volumes.
463 kes This patch eliminates spurious output to the console during a VerifyVolume
464 job that contains encrypted data. It fixes bug #1024.
466 kes This patch prevents the 'status dir' command from trying to use a scratch
467 volume and possibly moving it from one pool to another. This patch fixes
470 kes Fix --archivedir addition to configure. Replace it with
471 --with-archivedir in configure.in This fixes the regression
473 kes This patch fixes bug #1012 where the job is canceled because
474 of Max Run Time exceeded when the job has not yet started.
476 ebl Apply Richard Mortimer patch that fixes #1016 when there are more than
477 one 'part' to write. Instead of each part being stored on disk,
478 written to DVD, then deleted from disk, all parts are written to disk,
479 and only the last is written and deleted from disk.
481 kes Correct typos in disk-changer.in
483 kes This patch fixes the status command to include the formating string for
484 JS_AttrInserting. It fixes bug #1021.
485 kes This patch should fix the Mac OS X build problem on the latest
486 Darwin, where sys/types.h was not included correctly (apparently
487 due to a change in the Mac headers). The solution was to explicitly
488 ensure that it is defined for the ./configure.
489 This patch also has a rebuild of configure that includes the Debian
490 qt4 patch to check for qmake-qt4. This patch fixes bug #1020.
491 kes This patch should ensure that queued messages to the console are
492 displayed as soon as possible. It should fix bug #1007, but has been
493 reported not to work.
495 kes This patch fixes the infinite loop when trying to increase the
496 maximum number of volumes in a Pool during the add command.
497 This patch fixes bug #1008.
499 Release Version 2.2.6
501 kes Get fix for joblist bug in bat from trunk.
503 kes This patch fixes bug #1003 where putting the message output from
504 a Verify job into the catalog results in a recursive loop. The problem
505 seems to show up only with postgresql (to be verified).
507 kes Fix bug #942 where lots of emails where generated when the heartbeat
508 interval was low and Bacula wanted a different tape from the one in
511 ebl Apply 2.2.5-lastwritten.patch to fix the LastWritten field
512 which was updated during a restore (or a reading migration) bug #982
514 ebl Use qmake-qt4 instead of qmake when available (debian system).
516 kes Add a security warning to src/cats/make_catalog_backup.in indicating
517 that passing the password via the command line (arg 3) is insecure.
518 This responds to bug #990 (it doesn't fix it).
519 kes Apply 2.2.5-postgresql-errors.patch
520 kes Remove unneeded File table index on JobId, which is already
521 present as the first index of another multi-index.
523 kes Set default debug_level to zero. This corrects bugs #991 and #993.
524 kes Fix a crash in bat when it cannot connect to the Director for example
525 if the Director is not running.
527 kes Activate Close button on tray-monitor window. This fixes
530 kes Fix spurious warning message printed when creating a volume with
531 a LabelFormat. This fixes bug #976.
533 Release Version 2.2.5
535 kes Add JobId in place of Job name in all the Jmsg() output.
536 kes Correct the APP_DESC for the Win32 storage service (remove an e).
538 kes Add new SD despooling attributes and Dir inserting attributes
539 job status codes. This fixes bug #961.
540 kes Fix Win32 drive display in bat version browser. Fixes bug #962.
542 kes Fix doc issue. This fixes bug #963.
543 kes Fix listing performance problems in bat. Pointed out by
545 ebl Fix replace on restore. This fixes bug #969
546 kes Fix bat code that tests for Win32. This should fix bug #968

549 kes Correct lib/Makefile.in to include enh_fnmatch.o that was removed
550 in back porting from 2.3.x
552 kes Backport almost 4000 lines of 2.3 code that fixes a number of bugs.
553 The details are included in the notes in this file.
555 kes Backport 2.3 code that fixes: it fixes incorrect or incomplete error
556 messages; it fixes a problem opening the SQLite3 database when multiple
557 simultaneous jobs were running; it fixes a bug with certain versions of
558 MySQL where batch inserts failed because of table name character case
559 (upper/lower) differences.
560 kes Fix race condition that drops final block written to volume.
561 This happens in rare cases with multiple simultaneous jobs
562 when the Volume fills. This fixes bug #964. May be related
563 to bug #935 and possibly #903.
565 kes Fix FD->SD authorization failure, which was due to spurious
566 wakeups from a pthread_cond_timedwait(). Simply check the
567 predicate before continuing. This fixes bug #953
568 dvl Add new configuration item --archivedir
569 dvl Adjust regression tests to use tmp not /tmp. This will allow
570 multiple concurrent runs of the regression tests.
572 kes Eliminate more strerror() and replace with bstrerror().
573 kes Remove BSD getopt and replace with unrestricted IBM version.
574 kes Fix Win32 build for changed calling sequences.
576 kes Fix FD->SD authorization failure, which was due to spurious
577 wakeups from a pthread_cond_timedwait(). Simply check the
578 predicate before continuing. This fixes bug #953.
579 kes Add const char where needed (more to do).
581 kes Setup SQLite busy handler before doing queries. Fixes bug #967.
582 kes Don't overwrite error message in check_tables_version.
584 kes Unlock batch insert tables with same calls used elsewhere.
585 kes Allow starting 59 jobs a second.
586 kes Make SD session key more random.
587 kes Add retry for SQLite opening db if it fails. Probably helps
589 kes Suppress extra error messages during batch insert failure.
591 kes Put some FD auth code on dbglvl rather than fixed.
592 kes Return insert attributes error message in db msg buffer to avoid
593 false error messages. Helps fix bug #966.
594 kes Separate batch init error messages. Probably helps fix bug #966.
595 kes If Dir gets an error during inserting attributes, cancel SD.
596 This reduces unnecessary error messages.
598 ebl Cleanup batch insert code. Probably fixes bug #965.
600 kes Turn off some code when batch insert not enabled.
601 kes Edit FD name in connect error messages.
603 kes Add code to handle tray monitor separated from Win32 FD.
604 kes Fix display of Win32 tray monitor after reboot. Fixes bug #952.
606 kes Fix ANSI tape labeling. This fixes bug #954.
607 kes Increase the max block size to 4MB fixes bug #957.
608 kes Apply 2.2.4-poll-mount fix, that resolves bug #908 where a tape
609 is not properly mounted (recognized) during a poll.
610 kes Apply 2.2.4-verify patch that resolves bug #958. A Verify catalog
611 Job that has differences reports Verify OK.
612 ebl Fixes #955 bug seg fault in Dir introduced with regexwhere relocation.
614 Release Version 2.2.4
616 kes Increase size of name string when FD making connection to SD.
619 kes Add waits to multiple exit detection code to try to force pid
620 file to always be deleted.
621 kes Restore good dev.tar.gz to rescue set appropriate binary property.
623 kes Fix seg fault in error exit of acquire_for_read after unsuccessfully
624 trying to switch drives by checking for blocking before unblocking.
626 kes Cancel storage daemon in all cases where FD reports error. This
627 should fix virtually all cases of bug #920.
629 kes Fix error message that was clobbered when Dir tells SD it does not
630 have write permission on Volume. This should fix a minor point
631 in bug #942, but not the main problem.
632 kes Add code to cancel job in SD if FD connection fails. This should
634 kes Add code in FD exit to prevent loops and a crash on FreeBSD.
635 kes Fix migration code to get correct Volume name with multiple volumes
636 by skipping |. Fixes bug #936.
637 kes Implement patch supplied by Landon to fix bug #944 where using

1338 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
1339 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
1340 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
1341 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place

1387 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
1388 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
1389 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
1390 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
1391 error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.

1425 for SD requests and for the list nextvolume command.
1427 kes Correct Qmsg() that was not updated correctly when committing a
1428 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
1430 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
1431 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
1432 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
1434 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
1435 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
1436 amount of duplicated code.

1465 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
1466 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director

1469 kes Correct a misplaced variable definition in src/filed/backup.c
1470 kes Correct how the new batch insert db_create_attributes_record()
1471 uses the arguments. Caused a seg fault in bscan.
1472 kes Implement lock() and unlock() methods in DEVICE class.
1473 Implement block() and set_block(xx) methods in DEVICE class.
1474 kes Modify bnet_connect() so that it uses time() to check for the
1475 wait time expiring (on some OSes, some system calls may not
1476 return immediately).
1477 kes Modify Verify to obtain the previous JobId when it is actually
1478 running rather than at schedule time (as it was in 1.38.x).
1479 kes Fix src/job.c to handle MaxWaitTime correctly. This should

1528 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
1529 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
1531 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
1532 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
1533 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
1535 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
1536 than English. Fixes bug #788.
1538 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.

1555 RecyclePool = Scratch
1559 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
1560 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
1561 that returns more information and will make it easier
1562 to interface to the Director from a program.
1564 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
1565 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
1566 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
1567 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
1568 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
1569 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
1570 the Changer Command to an empty string.
1572 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
1573 in a single write() request rather than in two.
1574 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
1575 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool

1589 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
1590 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
1591 in the case of orphaned records.
1592 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
1593 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
1594 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
1595 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
1596 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
1597 happens to the ScratchPool?
1598 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
1599 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
1600 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
1601 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
1602 times are in Bacula units.
1603 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
1605 kes Update projects list.
1607 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
1608 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
1609 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.

1611 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
1613 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
1614 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
1615 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
1617 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
1618 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
1620 Switch to using Subversion
1621 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
1623 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
1624 plus the entrypoints.
1625 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
1626 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
1627 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1629 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1630 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1632 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1633 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
1634 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
1636 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
1637 problem is with read or append.
1639 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1640 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1641 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1642 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1643 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1644 (i.e. migration jobs).
1645 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1646 a memory leak problem.
1647 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1648 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1649 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1650 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1651 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1652 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1653 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1654 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1655 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1656 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1657 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1658 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1659 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1660 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1661 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1662 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1664 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1666 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
