1 Technical notes on version 2.4
5 kes Create and apply 2.4.3-migrate2.patch, which fixes two bugs
6 - Bug #1206 -- sql error when there are no files to migrate.
7 - Bug #1171 -- Job catalog log is not migrated during migration.
9 kes Apply 2.4.3-sd-deadlock.patch that should fix bug #1192.
11 ebl Remove extra db_lock() in get_prune_list_for_volume()
12 ebl Apply 2.4.3-prune-deadlock.patch that fixes a problem when
13 using Catalog as message backend.
15 ebl Apply 2.4.3-win32-runscript-unicode-path.patch for #1110
16 about a problem when executing a program with Unicode path.
17 ebl Apply 2.4.3-unique-inchanger.patch fix for #1175 about bad slot
18 number if the volume is not in autochanger.
20 kes Probably fix for bug #1188 where Volume is purged while writing
22 kes Get message enhancement to avoid job name lookup.
24 kes Fix bug with job name duplication if more than 60 jobs created
26 kes Correct some bugs of cleanup in SD if the FD connection fails.
28 kes Fix orphaned jobs (possible deadlock) while pruning.
30 ebl Backport of the btraceback script that keeps trace file on working dir
32 kes Migrate DB Log records too. This fixes last part of bug #1171.
34 kes Modify SQL so that jobs that failed will not be migrated.
35 kes Correct bug where long retention periods caused immediate
40 ebl Apply 2.4.3-update-slots.patch to fix #1175. About update slots
41 that don't reset InChanger flag when slot is empty.
43 ebl Apply 2.4.2-cancel-non-running-jobs.patch to be able to cancel
44 a non created job faster.
46 kes This should correct bug #1159 where Migration does not properly
47 respect the Migration Low Bytes directive.
49 ebl Fix typo in configure.in that breaks --with-db-password option
51 kes This code should fix the race condition that leads to a Director
52 crash at job end time when the job list is updated. This was reported
55 kes Remove all double quotes from SQLite creating script and
56 replace by single quotes as suggested by John Huttley.
58 kes Fix SQL case problem that may cause the failure of DiskToCatalog
60 kes Copy missing storage name into edit buffer. As far as I can tell
61 this never caused a bug.
63 ebl Remove catalog dependency for bcopy
64 ebl Modify catalog scripts to have an easier packaging integration,
65 using default variables.
66 Make difference between SQLite3 and SQLite in db_get_type()
68 kes Attempt to fix bug #1128 InChanger flag cleared during Migration
69 job when reading from one autochanger and writing to another.
71 kes Add more information to SD acquire.c INFO messages.
72 kes Fix NULL Volume name error when reading and the drive must
75 kes Fix a Verify InitCatalog problem where in certain cases
76 a garbage filename may be entered in the verification database. This
78 kes Add space after version before date in bat about dialog.
80 kes Fix seg fault in Dir during estimate command with no level value
81 given. This fixes bug #1140.
83 kes Add message to migration job when the target job is already migrated.
84 This closes bug #1129.
88 kes When a migration job actually runs, re-check the Job record
89 and skip if the job is already migrated. This should
90 significantly reduce the problems with bug #1129.
92 kes Break the do_swapping into do_unload, do_swapping, and
93 do_load. It is much more logical that way.
94 kes Implement a set_dcr_from_vol subroutine in acquire.c for
95 reading volumes. This allows the dcr to be refreshed after being
96 zapped when the wrong volume is mounted.
97 This should fix bug #1126 -- During multiple tape restore, Bacula
98 does not ask for physical tape change, but rereads same tape
100 kes Apply patch submitted for bug #1107 with a small modification.
101 This fixes a bug where bcopy copied too many records.
102 kes Make some tweaks to bsmtp based on patch submitted in bug #1124.
103 This fixes bug #1124.
104 kes Make the default bat restore Pool be Any. This fixes bug #1118.
107 kes Fix bug #1125 which reports a SD crash at the end of a tape
108 during restore. It was a debug statement that should not be
111 ebl fix #1034 by setting big timeout on mysql connections
113 kes Do partial integration of the Win32 bat build created by Eric.
114 kes Fix bat not to block.
116 kes Ensure that SD tried to mount a volume not in an autochanger
117 at least once before asking for operator intervention.
118 kes Fix a pthreads bug in the Win32 pthreads emulation code.
120 Release Version 2.4.1
122 kes Clear in-use bit on vol when unused while swapping.
124 kes Remove sleep at end of ./bacula
125 kes Clear hash packet for hardlinked files correctly. This corrects
126 a long standing bug where hardlinked files selected individually
127 would occasionally not be restored.
129 kes Apply Eric's patch to ensure that autoprune does not return
130 a Volume not in the autochanger unless requested to do so.
131 kes Correct bat restore display of multiple drives. This fixes
133 kes Do find_a_volume() each time an unload is done. This
134 fixes the failure of maxvol2-test.
136 Release Beta version 2.4.1-b2
138 kes Use Qmsg() in job.c watchdog callback.
140 kes Release main control rwlock if ABORTing.
141 kes Make watchdog connect timeout queue messages rather than sending
142 directly to avoid lock conflicts with the real thread.
143 kes Remove const char that causes problems with Python, which has
144 older 'incorrect' headers.
145 kes Add const char in dbd.c to avoid compiler warnings.
147 kes Fix mtx-changer to detect both versions of Ubuntu (Debian)
148 mt. This fixes bug #1116.
149 kes Fix failure of 2drive-concurrent-test. Always read label;
150 clear_unload() only after drive is defined in acquire_for_read().
152 Release Beta version 2.4.1-b1
154 kes Back out bad src/lib/base64.c change.
156 kes Generally clean up the manual tape loading code. The main
157 conceptual change is that when a volume is marked to be unloaded,
158 its volume name is retained, and it is only marked as unloaded
159 when either the autoloader says it is unloaded or another tape
160 is read on that drive.
162 kes Fix a recycling problem with two autochangers reported in bug
163 #1106. This may also (unlikely) fix a second recycling bug as
165 kes Fix a SD lock volumes deadlock problem reported in bug #1100.
167 kes Fix format problem in bscan output reported in bug #1105.
169 kes Copy more data when restarting a job so that run
170 overrides are kept. This should fix bug #1094.
171 kes Backport updates to jobq.c where possible.
173 kes Fix bug where SD did not ask operator if the device could not
174 be opened. Reported by Eric.
176 kes Add dbuser to DIR conf file (replaces user).
177 kes Add --with-db-password to ./configure
178 kes Fix regress to handle db_password.
179 kes Fix a couple of pedantic compiler warnings.
180 ebl Fix bug when starting a restore on a storage that doesn't
181 have the requested MediaType.
183 kes More work on word alignments -- eliminate all ints from
184 the configuration routines.
186 kes Fix bug reported by Scott Barninger where the bacula script
187 refers to scripts in the wrong directory. Needed to meet the
188 requirements of recent FHS location changes.
189 kes Fix word alignment problem on non-Intel 64 bit machines
190 such as Solaris. This should fix bug #1097 -- bus error in SD.
192 kes Add missing win32/patches/wxWidgets.patch to 2.4 repository.
194 Release Version 2.4.0
196 kes Update version to reflect the magnitude of the SD changes.
198 kes Make sure to clear JS_WaitMedia when operator mounts a Volume.
199 This fixes bug #1095.
201 kes Add create_postgresql_database.sql to Win32 installer. Should
202 fix problem reported by Juilio Monteiro.
203 kes Get correct slot when auto unloading a device. This fixes bug
206 kes Fix multiple media restore.
207 kes Make DEVICE Slot private and access it via a method.
208 Allows better control over when it is set and cleared.
209 kes Fix possible seg fault if SQL error.
211 kes Add debug code to SD.
212 kes Fix renaming a Volume, which used the wrong Volume name.
214 kes If operator has rewind tape, print warning, release tape and
215 try once more. If tape is positioned somewhere, something went
216 wrong, so mark the tape in error and try once more. Previously
217 this error was fatal, now it produces an error message.
218 kes Ensure correct volume name displayed during restore
219 kes Ensure that Volume is mounted for restore.
221 kes Fix a few more Coverity reported problems.
223 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b4
225 kes Enhance a couple of SD debug messages.
226 kes Tweak unload flag setting and ensure it is set during swap.
228 ebl Fix #1091 about bad output in estimate command.
230 kes Modify autochanger locking to attempt to avoid race
232 kes Make sure device not busy before doing label command.
233 kes Display open() errors except when polling. Previously too
234 many were suppressed. This should fix bug #1070.
235 kes Fix Win32 reparse points. Bacula will not recurse into any
236 reparse point directory, including mount points, unless the
237 directory is explicitly mentioned at the top level (same as
238 with Unix). A file that is linked to another file will be
239 backed up -- much as Unix does for hardlinked files.
240 This fixes bug #1041.
242 kes Remove double quotes from ChangeLog and ReleaseNotes
243 kes Remove StorageId test when pruning and recycling (Eric's changes).
244 kes Remove old form of locking when getting volumes -- causes deadlock.
246 kes Fix buffer overruns detected by Coverity.
248 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b3
250 kes Tweak joblog display.
252 kes Implement --without-qwt

255 with or without the QWT libaries.
257 kes Apply batfix bat cleanup patch from Riccardo.
258 kes Make sure we unload the right slot when swapping.
260 kes Improve SD reserve debug code.
261 kes Testing an improvement to free up volumes no longer in use.
263 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b2
266 kes Rework SD acquire for read to handle autochanger Volume
268 kes Implement regression that explicitly tests swapping a Volume
269 from one drive to another.
270 kes Enhance disk-changer to detect most error conditions.
271 kes Fix SD code so that it properly swaps a Volume between drives.
272 This fixes bug #1083.
274 kes Prevent a Volume that is being swapped from being freed from
275 the volume list. This will most likely fix, at least partially,
277 kes Fix strippath so that it does not get a buffer overrun and crash FD.
278 This fixes bug #1078.
279 kes Make inability to change owner/group when creating a dir only a
280 warning rather than an error.
282 ebl Fix SQL query in migration code
284 kes Force unload of volume when wrong volume mounted in SD.
286 kes Fix bat seg fault at termination.
287 kes Add Bacula generated version to bat about box.
289 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b1
291 kes Permit multiple simultaneous restores -- experiment.
293 kes Backport development stream SD reservation system changes.
296 kes Move final volume swapping code to DCR method and
297 call it from acquire_for_read().
298 kes When wrong volume is mounted during read, unload_autochanger.
300 kes Stop searching for Volumes in SD askdir if DIR returns the
301 same volume name twice in a row.
303 kes Tweak the swap Volume from one drive to another code so that
304 it now seems to work.
305 kes Resolve several problems with recycling that broke the new
306 code (these problems are in 2.2.9 as well).
307 kes Remove the volume lock when calling the sysop code.
308 kes Don't mark a reserved volume with no writers as unused otherwise
311 kes Rework class structures for VOLRES, DCR, and DEVICE to make
312 the method names a bit more logical, and for more logically
313 handling the responsibilities.
315 kes Remove redundant code in terminating the scheduler that just
316 causes a seg fault in many cases.
317 kes Cleanup releasing a volume and make it a DCR method.
318 kes Improve algorithm for detecting pre-reserved volume and
321 kes Tweak volume swapping code so it works.
322 kes Correct name overloading in mount.c
323 kes Replace released flag in VOLRES with reserved and add access
324 methods for the VOLRES class.
325 kes Prevent volume from being released while being swapped.
326 kes Refactor parts of stored/mount.c
328 ebl Add sanity checks for VolWriteTime and VolReadTime
329 ebl Take care of bad clock changes while computing VolWriteTime
330 and VolReadTime. This should fix or limit #1066
331 kes Correct error string numbers in dird/catreq.c
332 kes Restructure reserving, acquiring, and mounting volumes. Calls to
333 autochanger are deferred for mount.c -- simplifes the code.
335 kes Do not prune any running job. It just fails the job.
336 kes Lock the volumes when changing dev->reserved_device and marking
337 the volume unused otherwise the device can get reserved by
338 another job before the volume is released, thus blocking it.
341 Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b7
343 kes Close bat console windows first to eliminate error message
345 kes Remove useless code in Scheduler that causes seg fault on
347 kes Correct some SD catalog request error messages.
348 kes Don't allow pruning of any running job.
349 kes Turn off code in read_record that causes a seg fault in the SD
350 when reading past an EOS_LABEL.
351 kes Turn off unloading the autochanger in reserve.c as it just
353 kes Lock volumes when unreserving a device.
354 kes Do not mark volume unused when recycling.
355 kes When acquiring, don't mark volume unused if it is reserved (busy).
357 Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b6
359 kes Eliminate ./configure warning on po directory
360 kes Fix bug #1063, reuse of freed ptr in list nextvol.
361 kes Release regex compile buffer in filed/job.c
362 kes Add proper type of const char in sql_create.c
363 kes Turn off debug in daemon termination routines
364 kes Move free_volume_list() before devices are freed in stored.c

378 kes Re-enable code to remember last volume mounted on a non-tape
380 kes Add patch supplied in bug #1068 that fixes a SD crash when using
381 a Virtual autochanger.
382 kes Generate correct JobMedia records during spooling/despooling when
383 running concurrent jobs. Thanks to Tom Ivar Helbekkmo
384 <tih@hamartun.priv.no> for excellent analysis and testing.
386 Beta release Version 2.2.9-b3
388 kes Rework certain SD locking based on gdb tracebacks of deadlocks
389 sent by Eric. This code now uses only the volume_lock() rather
390 than the reservations lock when at EOM and acquiring a new
392 kes Ensure only one exit point in several subroutines.
394 Beta release version 2.2.9-b2
396 kes Fix to initial tape drive open to release the volume name
398 Beta release Version 2.2.9-b1
400 kes Fix to JobMedia fix.
401 kes Fix bug pointed out by Peter Much that causes the StorageId to
402 be updated when reading a tape (during migration, it could have
403 been incorrectly set to the write StorageId).
405 kes Implement autostart scripts for Debian
407 kes Fix mtx-changer.in for broken Debian mt program.
409 kes Massive commit of all fixes and back ports to create 2.2.9
411 kes Apply doc fix from bug #1062.

413 GUI. Fixes bug #1065.
414 kes Update Win32 wxWidgets to latest version.
415 kes Attempt to do correct handling of Win32 mount points. Should
417 kes Fix Win32 FD backup/restore memory leak due to improper termination
418 of BackupRead/Write. This fixes bug# 1038.
419 kes Add const to AIX prototype for initgroups()
421 kes Undo bug #1047 heap overrun fix as it is not correct.
423 kes Fix creating first JobMedia record during Migration to include
424 proper index. This caused slow restores of migrated jobs.
426 kes Fix bug #1047, which had a heap overrun when stripping certain paths,
427 and do not strip paths on symbolic links.
428 kes Set catalog backup database and user name from values specified on
429 the ./configure line.
430 ebl Apply patch to correct bug #1031, about wrong pool source information
433 Release Version 2.2.8
435 kes Apply patch from Martin to correct bug #1040, bscan sets existing
437 kes Fixed important spelling error in doc -- bug #1045.
439 kes Move initialization of read/write res lock earlier in the code.
440 This fixes the crash with a null conf file. This fixes bug
442 kes Redefine CURES in lib/parse_conf to be URES and move it all
443 into lib/parse_conf.c -- this responds to bug #1042, but does
444 not fix it. The fix is not to compile with FORTIFY_SOURCE.
445 kes Backport fix de-referencing a NULL pointer in the scanner from
446 the trunk SVN. I don't think this was reported as a bug.
448 Beta release Version 2.2.8
450 kes Re-enable the new job code editing (%f).
452 kes Fix bsnprintf for float point numbers. I broke recently when
453 parameterizing some variables. This fixes bug #1036.
455 kes Move Heartbeat documentation from Job to Director resource.
456 This fixes bug #1033.
458 kes Fix existing switch drive SD code to call autochanger to release
459 any old volume. This must be done to keep the autochanger from
460 releasing subsequently newly reserved volumes in doing a close().
461 This should possibly fix bugs #1032 and #1018.
462 kes Apply big backport of current SVN SD code that corrects a number
463 of race conditions. This is a first step in fixing bug #1018.
465 ebl Fixes bug #1028 where "Selection Type" option was not usable
469 Release Version 2.2.7
471 kes Partial back out (disabled) %f job code editing because it
472 does not build on Win32.
473 kes Fix seg fault Frank Sweetser reports in regression testing
474 on his systems. The problem was that the original author of
475 bsnprintf.c did not take into account the side effects of
476 using ++x in the argument to a #define.
478 kes Apply patch from Michael Stapelberg <michael@stapelberg.de>
479 that implements double quoting include names in conf files,
480 and also allows piping input by having the first character
481 be a vertical bar (|).
482 kes Apply patch from Bastian Friedrich <bastian.friedrich@collax.com>
483 that implement %f in RunScripts to pass the FileSet name.
484 kes Skip leading | when lex input comes from a pipe as suggested
485 by Michael Stapelberg <michael@stapelberg.de>.
487 kes Apply patch for bsmtp Win32 daylight savings time fix supplied by
488 Nerijus Baliunas <nerijus@users.sourceforge.net>
490 kes This patch corrects a problem where the maximum concurrent storage
491 jobs counter gets out of sync during restore jobs causing jobs to
492 'wait on max Storage jobs'. This patch fixes bug #1009.
494 kes Add new include to postgresql.c suggested by Marc Cousins so
495 that it compiles correctly with pgre version 8.3. Also fix
496 misuse of %x with pointer (should be %p).
498 kes This patch fixes bcopy so that it produces correct Volumes.
500 kes This patch eliminates spurious output to the console during a VerifyVolume
501 job that contains encrypted data. It fixes bug #1024.
503 kes This patch prevents the 'status dir' command from trying to use a scratch
504 volume and possibly moving it from one pool to another. This patch fixes
507 kes Fix --archivedir addition to configure. Replace it with
508 --with-archivedir in configure.in This fixes the regression
510 kes This patch fixes bug #1012 where the job is canceled because
511 of Max Run Time exceeded when the job has not yet started.
513 ebl Apply Richard Mortimer patch that fixes #1016 when there are more than
514 one 'part' to write. Instead of each part being stored on disk,
515 written to DVD, then deleted from disk, all parts are written to disk,
516 and only the last is written and deleted from disk.
518 kes Correct typos in disk-changer.in
520 kes This patch fixes the status command to include the formating string for
521 JS_AttrInserting. It fixes bug #1021.
522 kes This patch should fix the Mac OS X build problem on the latest
523 Darwin, where sys/types.h was not included correctly (apparently
524 due to a change in the Mac headers). The solution was to explicitly
525 ensure that it is defined for the ./configure.
526 This patch also has a rebuild of configure that includes the Debian
527 qt4 patch to check for qmake-qt4. This patch fixes bug #1020.
528 kes This patch should ensure that queued messages to the console are
529 displayed as soon as possible. It should fix bug #1007, but has been
530 reported not to work.
532 kes This patch fixes the infinite loop when trying to increase the
533 maximum number of volumes in a Pool during the add command.
534 This patch fixes bug #1008.
536 Release Version 2.2.6
538 kes Get fix for joblist bug in bat from trunk.
540 kes This patch fixes bug #1003 where putting the message output from
541 a Verify job into the catalog results in a recursive loop. The problem
542 seems to show up only with postgresql (to be verified).
544 kes Fix bug #942 where lots of emails where generated when the heartbeat
545 interval was low and Bacula wanted a different tape from the one in
548 ebl Apply 2.2.5-lastwritten.patch to fix the LastWritten field
549 which was updated during a restore (or a reading migration) bug #982
551 ebl Use qmake-qt4 instead of qmake when available (debian system).
553 kes Add a security warning to src/cats/make_catalog_backup.in indicating
554 that passing the password via the command line (arg 3) is insecure.
555 This responds to bug #990 (it doesn't fix it).
556 kes Apply 2.2.5-postgresql-errors.patch
557 kes Remove unneeded File table index on JobId, which is already
558 present as the first index of another multi-index.
560 kes Set default debug_level to zero. This corrects bugs #991 and #993.
561 kes Fix a crash in bat when it cannot connect to the Director for example
562 if the Director is not running.
564 kes Activate Close button on tray-monitor window. This fixes
567 kes Fix spurious warning message printed when creating a volume with
568 a LabelFormat. This fixes bug #976.
570 Release Version 2.2.5
572 kes Add JobId in place of Job name in all the Jmsg() output.
573 kes Correct the APP_DESC for the Win32 storage service (remove an e).
575 kes Add new SD despooling attributes and Dir inserting attributes
576 job status codes. This fixes bug #961.
577 kes Fix Win32 drive display in bat version browser. Fixes bug #962.
579 kes Fix doc issue. This fixes bug #963.
580 kes Fix listing performance problems in bat. Pointed out by
582 ebl Fix replace on restore. This fixes bug #969
583 kes Fix bat code that tests for Win32. This should fix bug #968
584 kes Query 5 list wrong Vol after migration. This fixes bug #960
586 kes Correct lib/Makefile.in to include enh_fnmatch.o that was removed
587 in back porting from 2.3.x
589 kes Backport almost 4000 lines of 2.3 code that fixes a number of bugs.
590 The details are included in the notes in this file.
592 kes Backport 2.3 code that fixes: it fixes incorrect or incomplete error
593 messages; it fixes a problem opening the SQLite3 database when multiple
594 simultaneous jobs were running; it fixes a bug with certain versions of
595 MySQL where batch inserts failed because of table name character case
596 (upper/lower) differences.
597 kes Fix race condition that drops final block written to volume.
598 This happens in rare cases with multiple simultaneous jobs
599 when the Volume fills. This fixes bug #964. May be related
600 to bug #935 and possibly #903.
602 kes Fix FD->SD authorization failure, which was due to spurious
603 wakeups from a pthread_cond_timedwait(). Simply check the
604 predicate before continuing. This fixes bug #953
605 dvl Add new configuration item --archivedir
606 dvl Adjust regression tests to use tmp not /tmp. This will allow
607 multiple concurrent runs of the regression tests.
609 kes Eliminate more strerror() and replace with bstrerror().
610 kes Remove BSD getopt and replace with unrestricted IBM version.
611 kes Fix Win32 build for changed calling sequences.
613 kes Fix FD->SD authorization failure, which was due to spurious
614 wakeups from a pthread_cond_timedwait(). Simply check the
615 predicate before continuing. This fixes bug #953.
616 kes Add const char where needed (more to do).
618 kes Setup SQLite busy handler before doing queries. Fixes bug #967.
619 kes Don't overwrite error message in check_tables_version.
621 kes Unlock batch insert tables with same calls used elsewhere.
622 kes Allow starting 59 jobs a second.
623 kes Make SD session key more random.
624 kes Add retry for SQLite opening db if it fails. Probably helps
626 kes Suppress extra error messages during batch insert failure.
628 kes Put some FD auth code on dbglvl rather than fixed.
629 kes Return insert attributes error message in db msg buffer to avoid
630 false error messages. Helps fix bug #966.
631 kes Separate batch init error messages. Probably helps fix bug #966.
632 kes If Dir gets an error during inserting attributes, cancel SD.
633 This reduces unnecessary error messages.
635 ebl Cleanup batch insert code. Probably fixes bug #965.
637 kes Turn off some code when batch insert not enabled.
638 kes Edit FD name in connect error messages.

953 we do not descend into it. This is a first cut. They seem to
954 be backed up, but restore is not yet tested.
955 kes Remove restore_blocking in tls code when shutting a socket to leave

1375 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
1376 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
1377 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
1378 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place

1424 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
1425 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
1426 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
1427 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
1428 error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.
1430 kes Make database name and user configurable

1462 for SD requests and for the list nextvolume command.
1464 kes Correct Qmsg() that was not updated correctly when committing a
1465 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
1467 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
1468 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
1469 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
1471 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
1472 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
1473 amount of duplicated code.

1487 of other prune/purge subroutines.
1488 kes Add an insanity check when starting a new tape job to ensure
1489 that the tape position has not been changed. If so fail the

1502 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
1503 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director
1504 to after we drop privileges. This avoids the need for both root
1505 and bacula access to the DB.
1506 kes Correct a misplaced variable definition in src/filed/backup.c
1507 kes Correct how the new batch insert db_create_attributes_record()
1508 uses the arguments. Caused a seg fault in bscan.
1509 kes Implement lock() and unlock() methods in DEVICE class.
1510 Implement block() and set_block(xx) methods in DEVICE class.
1511 kes Modify bnet_connect() so that it uses time() to check for the
1512 wait time expiring (on some OSes, some system calls may not
1513 return immediately).
1514 kes Modify Verify to obtain the previous JobId when it is actually
1515 running rather than at schedule time (as it was in 1.38.x).
1516 kes Fix src/job.c to handle MaxWaitTime correctly. This should
1518 kes When checking pid in pid file, continue running if the pid is
1519 the same as ours. This occurs on IRIX after a system crash.

1548 kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
1549 modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.

1565 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
1566 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
1568 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
1569 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
1570 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
1572 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
1573 than English. Fixes bug #788.
1575 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.

1592 RecyclePool = Scratch
1596 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
1597 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
1598 that returns more information and will make it easier
1599 to interface to the Director from a program.
1601 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
1602 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
1603 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
1604 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
1605 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
1606 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
1607 the Changer Command to an empty string.
1609 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
1610 in a single write() request rather than in two.
1611 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
1612 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool
1614 kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files
1615 to be truncated. This fixes bug #763.

1626 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
1627 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
1628 in the case of orphaned records.
1629 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
1630 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
1631 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
1632 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
1633 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
1634 happens to the ScratchPool?
1635 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
1636 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
1637 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
1638 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
1639 times are in Bacula units.
1640 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
1642 kes Update projects list.
1644 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
1645 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
1646 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.

1648 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
1650 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
1651 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
1652 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
1654 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
1655 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
1657 Switch to using Subversion
1658 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
1660 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
1661 plus the entrypoints.
1662 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
1663 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
1664 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1666 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1667 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1669 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1670 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
1671 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
1673 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
1674 problem is with read or append.
1676 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1677 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1678 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1679 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1680 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1681 (i.e. migration jobs).
1682 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1683 a memory leak problem.
1684 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1685 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1686 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1687 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1688 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1689 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1690 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1691 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1692 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1693 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1694 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1695 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1696 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1697 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1698 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1699 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1701 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1703 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
