1 Technical notes on version 2.4
4 Release Beta version 2.4.1-b1
6 kes Back out bad src/lib/base64.c change.
8 kes Generally clean up the manual tape loading code. The main
9 conceptial change is that when a volume is marked to be unloaded,
10 its volume name is retained, and it is only marked as unloaded
11 when either the autoloader says it is unloaded or another tape
12 is read on that drive.
14 kes Fix a recycling problem with two autochangers reported in bug
15 #1106. This may also (unlikely) fix a second recycling bug as
17 kes Fix a SD lock volumes deadlock problem reported in bug #1100.
19 kes Fix format problem in bscan output reported in bug #1105.
21 kes Copy more data when restarting a job so that run
22 overrides are kept. This should fix bug #1094.
23 kes Backport updates to jobq.c where possible.
25 kes Fix bug where SD did not ask operator if the device could not
26 be opened. Reported by Eric.
28 kes Add dbuser to DIR conf file (replaces user).
29 kes Add --with-db-password to ./configure
30 kes Fix regress to handle db_password.
31 kes Fix a couple of pedantic compiler warnings.
32 ebl Fix bug when starting a restore on a storage that doesn't
33 have the requested MediaType.
35 kes More work on word alignments -- eliminate all ints from
36 the configuration routines.
38 kes Fix bug reported by Scott Barninger where the bacula script
39 refers to scripts in the wrong directory. Needed to meet the
40 requirements of recent FHS location changes.
41 kes Fix word alignment problem on non-Intel 64 bit machines
42 such as Solaris. This should fix bug #1097 -- bus error in SD.
44 kes Add missing win32/patches/wxWidgets.patch to 2.4 repository.
48 kes Update version to reflect the magnitude of the SD changes.
50 kes Make sure to clear JS_WaitMedia when operator mounts a Volume.
53 kes Add create_postgresql_database.sql to Win32 installer. Should
54 fix problem reported by Juilio Monteiro.
55 kes Get correct slot when auto unloading a device. This fixes bug
58 kes Fix multiple media restore.
59 kes Make DEVICE Slot private and access it via a method.
60 Allows better control over when it is set and cleared.
61 kes Fix possible seg fault if SQL error.
63 kes Add debug code to SD.
64 kes Fix renaming a Volume, which used the wrong Volume name.
66 kes If operator has rewind tape, print warning, release tape and
67 try once more. If tape is positioned somewhere, something went
68 wrong, so mark the tape in error and try once more. Previously
69 this error was fatal, now it produces an error message.
70 kes Ensure correct volume name displayed during restore
71 kes Ensure that Volume is mounted for restore.
73 kes Fix a few more Coverity reported problems.
75 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b4
77 kes Enhance a couple of SD debug messages.
78 kes Tweak unload flag setting and ensure it is set during swap.
80 ebl Fix #1091 about bad output in estimate command.
82 kes Modify autochanger locking to attempt to avoid race
84 kes Make sure device not busy before doing label command.
85 kes Display open() errors except when polling. Previously too
86 many were suppressed. This should fix bug #1070.
87 kes Fix Win32 reparse points. Bacula will not recurse into any
88 reparse point directory, including mount points, unless the
89 directory is explicitly mentioned at the top level (same as
90 with Unix). A file that is linked to another file will be
91 backed up -- much as Unix does for hardlinked files.
94 kes Remove double quotes from ChangeLog and ReleaseNotes
95 kes Remove StorageId test when pruning and recycling (Eric's changes).
96 kes Remove old form of locking when getting volumes -- causes deadlock.
98 kes Fix buffer overruns detected by Coverity.
100 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b3
102 kes Tweak joblog display.
104 kes Implement --without-qwt
105 kes Fix layout of restore tree dialog
106 kes Add configure bat QWT libraries, so that bat can be built
107 with or without the QWT libaries.
109 kes Apply batfix bat cleanup patch from Riccardo.
110 kes Make sure we unload the right slot when swapping.
112 kes Improve SD reserve debug code.
113 kes Testing an improvement to free up volumes no longer in use.
115 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b2
118 kes Rework SD acquire for read to handle autochanger Volume
120 kes Implement regression that explicitly tests swapping a Volume
121 from one drive to another.
122 kes Enhance disk-changer to detect most error conditions.
123 kes Fix SD code so that it properly swaps a Volume between drives.
124 This fixes bug #1083.
126 kes Prevent a Volume that is being swapped from being freed from
127 the volume list. This will most likely fix, at least partially,
129 kes Fix strippath so that it does not get a buffer overrun and crash FD.
130 This fixes bug #1078.
131 kes Make inability to change owner/group when creating a dir only a
132 warning rather than an error.
134 ebl Fix SQL query in migration code
136 kes Force unload of volume when wrong volume mounted in SD.
138 kes Fix bat seg fault at termination.
139 kes Add Bacula generated version to bat about box.
141 Beta Release Version 2.2.10-b1
143 kes Permit multiple simultaneous restores -- experiment.
145 kes Backport development stream SD reservation system changes.
148 kes Move final volume swapping code to DCR method and
149 call it from acquire_for_read().
150 kes When wrong volume is mounted during read, unload_autochanger.
152 kes Stop searching for Volumes in SD askdir if DIR returns the
153 same volume name twice in a row.
155 kes Tweak the swap Volume from one drive to another code so that
156 it now seems to work.
157 kes Resolve several problems with recycling that broke the new
158 code (these problems are in 2.2.9 as well).
159 kes Remove the volume lock when calling the sysop code.
160 kes Don't mark a reserved volume with no writers as unused otherwise
163 kes Rework class structures for VOLRES, DCR, and DEVICE to make
164 the method names a bit more logical, and for more logically
165 handling the responsibilities.
167 kes Remove redundant code in terminating the scheduler that just
168 causes a seg fault in many cases.
169 kes Cleanup releasing a volume and make it a DCR method.
170 kes Improve algorithm for detecting pre-reserved volume and
173 kes Tweak volume swapping code so it works.
174 kes Correct name overloading in mount.c
175 kes Replace released flag in VOLRES with reserved and add access
176 methods for the VOLRES class.
177 kes Prevent volume from being released while being swapped.
178 kes Refactor parts of stored/mount.c
180 ebl Add sanity checks for VolWriteTime and VolReadTime
181 ebl Take care of bad clock changes while computing VolWriteTime
182 and VolReadTime. This should fix or limit #1066
183 kes Correct error string numbers in dird/catreq.c
184 kes Restructure reserving, acquiring, and mounting volumes. Calls to
185 autochanger are deferred for mount.c -- simplifes the code.
187 kes Do not prune any running job. It just fails the job.
188 kes Lock the volumes when changing dev->reserved_device and marking
189 the volume unused otherwise the device can get reserved by
190 another job before the volume is released, thus blocking it.
193 Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b7
195 kes Close bat console windows first to eliminate error message
197 kes Remove useless code in Scheduler that causes seg fault on
199 kes Correct some SD catalog request error messages.
200 kes Don't allow pruning of any running job.
201 kes Turn off code in read_record that causes a seg fault in the SD
202 when reading past an EOS_LABEL.
203 kes Turn off unloading the autochanger in reserve.c as it just
205 kes Lock volumes when unreserving a device.
206 kes Do not mark volume unused when recycling.
207 kes When acquiring, don't mark volume unused if it is reserved (busy).
209 Beta Release Version 2.2.9-b6
211 kes Eliminate ./configure warning on po directory
212 kes Fix bug #1063, reuse of freed ptr in list nextvol.
213 kes Release regex compile buffer in filed/job.c

232 kes Add patch supplied in bug #1068 that fixes a SD crash when using
233 a Virtual autochanger.
234 kes Generate correct JobMedia records during spooling/despooling when
235 running concurrent jobs. Thanks to Tom Ivar Helbekkmo
236 <tih@hamartun.priv.no> for excellent analysis and testing.
238 Beta release Version 2.2.9-b3
240 kes Rework certain SD locking based on gdb tracebacks of deadlocks
241 sent by Eric. This code now uses only the volume_lock() rather
242 than the reservations lock when at EOM and acquiring a new
244 kes Ensure only one exit point in several subroutines.
246 Beta release version 2.2.9-b2
248 kes Fix to initial tape drive open to release the volume name
250 Beta release Version 2.2.9-b1
252 kes Fix to JobMedia fix.
253 kes Fix bug pointed out by Peter Much that causes the StorageId to
254 be updated when reading a tape (during migration, it could have
255 been incorrectly set to the write StorageId).
257 kes Implement autostart scripts for Debian
259 kes Fix mtx-changer.in for broken Debian mt program.
261 kes Massive commit of all fixes and back ports to create 2.2.9

265 GUI. Fixes bug #1065.
266 kes Update Win32 wxWidgets to latest version.
267 kes Attempt to do correct handling of Win32 mount points. Should
269 kes Fix Win32 FD backup/restore memory leak due to improper termination

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

289 kes Fixed important spelling error in doc -- bug #1045.
291 kes Move initialization of read/write res lock earlier in the code.
292 This fixes the crash with a null conf file. This fixes bug
294 kes Redefine CURES in lib/parse_conf to be URES and move it all
295 into lib/parse_conf.c -- this responds to bug #1042, but does
296 not fix it. The fix is not to compile with FORTIFY_SOURCE.
297 kes Backport fix de-referencing a NULL pointer in the scanner from
298 the trunk SVN. I don't think this was reported as a bug.
300 Beta release Version 2.2.8
302 kes Re-enable the new job code editing (%f).
304 kes Fix bsnprintf for float point numbers. I broke recently when
305 parameterizing some variables. This fixes bug #1036.
307 kes Move Heartbeat documentation from Job to Director resource.
308 This fixes bug #1033.
310 kes Fix existing switch drive SD code to call autochanger to release
311 any old volume. This must be done to keep the autochanger from
312 releasing subsequently newly reserved volumes in doing a close().
313 This should possibly fix bugs #1032 and #1018.
314 kes Apply big backport of current SVN SD code that corrects a number
315 of race conditions. This is a first step in fixing bug #1018.
317 ebl Fixes bug #1028 where "Selection Type" option was not usable
321 Release Version 2.2.7
323 kes Partial back out (disabled) %f job code editing because it
324 does not build on Win32.
325 kes Fix seg fault Frank Sweetser reports in regression testing
326 on his systems. The problem was that the original author of
327 bsnprintf.c did not take into account the side effects of
328 using ++x in the argument to a #define.
330 kes Apply patch from Michael Stapelberg <michael@stapelberg.de>
331 that implements double quoting include names in conf files,
332 and also allows piping input by having the first character
333 be a vertical bar (|).
334 kes Apply patch from Bastian Friedrich <bastian.friedrich@collax.com>
335 that implement %f in RunScripts to pass the FileSet name.
336 kes Skip leading | when lex input comes from a pipe as suggested
337 by Michael Stapelberg <michael@stapelberg.de>.
339 kes Apply patch for bsmtp Win32 daylight savings time fix supplied by
340 Nerijus Baliunas <nerijus@users.sourceforge.net>
342 kes This patch corrects a problem where the maximum concurrent storage
343 jobs counter gets out of sync during restore jobs causing jobs to
344 'wait on max Storage jobs'. This patch fixes bug #1009.
346 kes Add new include to postgresql.c suggested by Marc Cousins so
347 that it compiles correctly with pgre version 8.3. Also fix
348 misuse of %x with pointer (should be %p).
350 kes This patch fixes bcopy so that it produces correct Volumes.
352 kes This patch eliminates spurious output to the console during a VerifyVolume
353 job that contains encrypted data. It fixes bug #1024.
355 kes This patch prevents the 'status dir' command from trying to use a scratch
356 volume and possibly moving it from one pool to another. This patch fixes
359 kes Fix --archivedir addition to configure. Replace it with
360 --with-archivedir in configure.in This fixes the regression
362 kes This patch fixes bug #1012 where the job is canceled because
363 of Max Run Time exceeded when the job has not yet started.
365 ebl Apply Richard Mortimer patch that fixes #1016 when there are more than
366 one 'part' to write. Instead of each part being stored on disk,
367 written to DVD, then deleted from disk, all parts are written to disk,
368 and only the last is written and deleted from disk.
370 kes Correct typos in disk-changer.in
372 kes This patch fixes the status command to include the formating string for
373 JS_AttrInserting. It fixes bug #1021.
374 kes This patch should fix the Mac OS X build problem on the latest
375 Darwin, where sys/types.h was not included correctly (apparently
376 due to a change in the Mac headers). The solution was to explicitly
377 ensure that it is defined for the ./configure.
378 This patch also has a rebuild of configure that includes the Debian
379 qt4 patch to check for qmake-qt4. This patch fixes bug #1020.
380 kes This patch should ensure that queued messages to the console are
381 displayed as soon as possible. It should fix bug #1007, but has been
382 reported not to work.
384 kes This patch fixes the infinite loop when trying to increase the
385 maximum number of volumes in a Pool during the add command.
386 This patch fixes bug #1008.
388 Release Version 2.2.6
390 kes Get fix for joblist bug in bat from trunk.
392 kes This patch fixes bug #1003 where putting the message output from
393 a Verify job into the catalog results in a recursive loop. The problem
394 seems to show up only with postgresql (to be verified).
396 kes Fix bug #942 where lots of emails where generated when the heartbeat
397 interval was low and Bacula wanted a different tape from the one in
400 ebl Apply 2.2.5-lastwritten.patch to fix the LastWritten field
401 which was updated during a restore (or a reading migration) bug #982
403 ebl Use qmake-qt4 instead of qmake when available (debian system).
405 kes Add a security warning to src/cats/make_catalog_backup.in indicating
406 that passing the password via the command line (arg 3) is insecure.
407 This responds to bug #990 (it doesn't fix it).
408 kes Apply 2.2.5-postgresql-errors.patch
409 kes Remove unneeded File table index on JobId, which is already
410 present as the first index of another multi-index.
412 kes Set default debug_level to zero. This corrects bugs #991 and #993.
413 kes Fix a crash in bat when it cannot connect to the Director for example
414 if the Director is not running.
416 kes Activate Close button on tray-monitor window. This fixes
419 kes Fix spurious warning message printed when creating a volume with
420 a LabelFormat. This fixes bug #976.
422 Release Version 2.2.5
424 kes Add JobId in place of Job name in all the Jmsg() output.
425 kes Correct the APP_DESC for the Win32 storage service (remove an e).

438 kes Correct lib/Makefile.in to include enh_fnmatch.o that was removed
439 in back porting from 2.3.x
441 kes Backport almost 4000 lines of 2.3 code that fixes a number of bugs.
442 The details are included in the notes in this file.
444 kes Backport 2.3 code that fixes: it fixes incorrect or incomplete error
445 messages; it fixes a problem opening the SQLite3 database when multiple
446 simultaneous jobs were running; it fixes a bug with certain versions of
447 MySQL where batch inserts failed because of table name character case
448 (upper/lower) differences.
449 kes Fix race condition that drops final block written to volume.
450 This happens in rare cases with multiple simultaneous jobs
451 when the Volume fills. This fixes bug #964. May be related
452 to bug #935 and possibly #903.
454 kes Fix FD->SD authorization failure, which was due to spurious
455 wakeups from a pthread_cond_timedwait(). Simply check the
456 predicate before continuing. This fixes bug #953
457 dvl Add new configuration item --archivedir
458 dvl Adjust regression tests to use tmp not /tmp. This will allow
459 multiple concurrent runs of the regression tests.
461 kes Eliminate more strerror() and replace with bstrerror().
462 kes Remove BSD getopt and replace with unrestricted IBM version.
463 kes Fix Win32 build for changed calling sequences.

471 kes Don't overwrite error message in check_tables_version.
473 kes Unlock batch insert tables with same calls used elsewhere.
474 kes Allow starting 59 jobs a second.
475 kes Make SD session key more random.

478 kes Suppress extra error messages during batch insert failure.
480 kes Put some FD auth code on dbglvl rather than fixed.
481 kes Return insert attributes error message in db msg buffer to avoid
482 false error messages. Helps fix bug #966.
483 kes Separate batch init error messages. Probably helps fix bug #966.
484 kes If Dir gets an error during inserting attributes, cancel SD.
485 This reduces unnecessary error messages.
487 ebl Cleanup batch insert code. Probably fixes bug #965.
489 kes Turn off some code when batch insert not enabled.
490 kes Edit FD name in connect error messages.
492 kes Add code to handle tray monitor separated from Win32 FD.

496 kes Increase the max block size to 4MB fixes bug #957.
497 kes Apply 2.2.4-poll-mount fix, that resolves bug #908 where a tape
498 is not properly mounted (recognized) during a poll.
499 kes Apply 2.2.4-verify patch that resolves bug #958. A Verify catalog
500 Job that has differences reports Verify OK.
501 ebl Fixes #955 bug seg fault in Dir introduced with regexwhere relocation.
503 Release Version 2.2.4
505 kes Increase size of name string when FD making connection to SD.
508 kes Add waits to multiple exit detection code to try to force pid
509 file to always be deleted.
510 kes Restore good dev.tar.gz to rescue set appropriate binary property.
512 kes Fix seg fault in error exit of acquire_for_read after unsuccessfully
513 trying to switch drives by checking for blocking before unblocking.
515 kes Cancel storage daemon in all cases where FD reports error. This
516 should fix virtually all cases of bug #920.
518 kes Fix error message that was clobbered when Dir tells SD it does not
519 have write permission on Volume. This should fix a minor point
520 in bug #942, but not the main problem.
521 kes Add code to cancel job in SD if FD connection fails. This should
523 kes Add code in FD exit to prevent loops and a crash on FreeBSD.
524 kes Fix migration code to get correct Volume name with multiple volumes
525 by skipping |. Fixes bug #936.
526 kes Implement patch supplied by Landon to fix bug #944 where using

623 kes Update bat README file.
624 kes Apply patch from Allan Black <Allan.Black@btconnect.com> that
625 corrects a typo in the Recycle status check in db_find_next_volume().
626 This will probably fix a number of annoying problems with multiple
628 kes Modify most of dird/msgchan.c to use bsock class calls rather than
629 bnet calls -- no functionality change.
631 kes Modify the Verify output to specify if files are missing on
632 the Volume(s) or disk. Fixes confusion in bug #916.
633 kes When more than one Volume is read in a migration job, the last
634 Volume bytes reported are from the last read volume rather than
635 the last written volume. Fixed. This fixes bug #910.

1213 kes Correct usage of MTIOCLRERR ioctl for clearing persistant errors
1216 kes The bgnome-console (gnome-console) and bwx-console (wx-console) are
1217 deprecated. No additional bugs will be fixed, and they will be dropped
1218 in a future release (probably 2.4.0).
1219 kes Change name of wx-console to bwx-console to make it more Bacula
1221 kes Change the name of gnome-console to bgnome-console to make it
1224 kes Some time in March, a Feature Request with patch from Jorj Bauer
1225 <jorj@seas.upenn.edu> was committed by Landon (with my approval).
1227 The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
1228 an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
1229 A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
1230 in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place
1231 of hostname matching against the Certificate's CN. As an example, we
1232 have certificates which (a) use a local CA, and (b) have a CN of the

1252 it should normally be off in a production system.
1254 kes Implement die command for SD so that we can force it to dump.
1255 kes Implement SD lock debug code.
1256 kes Implement new algorithm for keeping Volume list in SD. It
1257 is now owned by the device.

1275 ebl Check size and age of each file after its backup to see if
1276 it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
1277 The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
1278 each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
1279 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
1280 error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.
1282 kes Make database name and user configurable
1283 --with-db-name=xxx --with-db-user=xxx
1284 kes Add back database type to message.c for debugging.
1286 kes Implement dir_sql() which issues an SQL query.

1311 kes Implement a new .sql command for bat.
1312 kes Implement code to turn off pruning in obtaining the next volume.
1313 Pruning is turned off for the status dir command, but turned on
1314 for SD requests and for the list nextvolume command.
1316 kes Correct Qmsg() that was not updated correctly when committing a
1317 previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
1319 kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
1320 if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
1321 resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
1323 kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
1324 to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
1325 amount of duplicated code.
1326 kes Do volume pruning only for the Media Type desired (reduces pruning time
1327 if multiple Media Types are in the same pool).
1328 kes Implement more detailed info in the Job report for the Bacula version
1330 kes Switch from POOLMEM to POOL_MEM (a real class) in ua_prune.c and

1336 kes Correct problems with am/pm scheduling. Fixes bug #808.
1337 kes Implement new prunning code that prunes up to 1000 jobs at
1338 the same time. The same technique can be applied to a number
1339 of other prune/purge subroutines.
1340 kes Add an insanity check when starting a new tape job to ensure
1341 that the tape position has not been changed. If so fail the
1343 kes Fix Win32 build for dlls to add the folllowing:
1344 src/lib/bsock.c -- new file with new entry points

1352 kes Correct return status on db_batch... routines.
1353 kes Add call to db_write_batch_file_records() to migration code.
1354 ebl Fix AfterJob timing
1355 kes Move the checking of the database in initializion of the Director
1356 to after we drop privileges. This avoids the need for both root
1357 and bacula access to the DB.
1358 kes Correct a misplaced variable definition in src/filed/backup.c
1359 kes Correct how the new batch insert db_create_attributes_record()
1360 uses the arguments. Caused a seg fault in bscan.
1361 kes Implement lock() and unlock() methods in DEVICE class.
1362 Implement block() and set_block(xx) methods in DEVICE class.
1363 kes Modify bnet_connect() so that it uses time() to check for the
1364 wait time expiring (on some OSes, some system calls may not
1365 return immediately).
1366 kes Modify Verify to obtain the previous JobId when it is actually
1367 running rather than at schedule time (as it was in 1.38.x).
1368 kes Fix src/job.c to handle MaxWaitTime correctly. This should
1370 kes When checking pid in pid file, continue running if the pid is
1371 the same as ours. This occurs on IRIX after a system crash.
1374 kes Extend new GUI API.

1400 kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
1401 modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.
1403 kes Correct virtual changer check which was backwards. This caused

1415 ebl fix fifo stuff, bacula tries to rewind the fifo... Thanks to Andreas
1417 kes Begin implementing new comm signals for API.
1418 kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
1420 kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
1421 who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
1422 them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
1424 kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
1425 than English. Fixes bug #788.
1427 ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.
1429 You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.
1430 It will be fixed soon.
1431 If you want to use this, you can apply
1432 trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
1434 kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
1435 no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
1436 set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
1437 ebl finish RecyclePool feature
1438 Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
1439 when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do
1440 update volume=xxx frompool
1441 To use it, add RecyclePool = aPool to your Pool resource
1444 RecyclePool = Scratch
1448 kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
1449 kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
1450 that returns more information and will make it easier
1451 to interface to the Director from a program.
1453 kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
1454 obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
1455 first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
1456 kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
1457 changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
1458 implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
1459 the Changer Command to an empty string.
1461 kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
1462 in a single write() request rather than in two.
1463 ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
1464 volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool
1466 kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files
1467 to be truncated. This fixes bug #763.
1468 kes Add FD event sequence order prepared by Eric -- for RunScripts.
1469 kes Fix 12am/pm bug as reported in bug #782 -- scheduler problem.
1471 kes Apply Eric's ClientRunScriptAfter patch to 2.0 and 2.1.
1472 ebl Use btime_t instead of uint64_t in media patch.
1474 kes Optimize the use of the database a bit in the Status dir command.
1475 Only open it when needed, ensure that if any previous database
1476 was opened, it is closed.
1478 kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
1479 kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
1480 in the case of orphaned records.
1481 kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
1482 and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
1483 idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
1484 kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
1485 the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
1486 happens to the ScratchPool?
1487 kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
1488 times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
1489 simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
1490 should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
1491 times are in Bacula units.
1492 kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
1494 kes Update projects list.
1496 kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
1497 the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
1498 large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.
1499 kes Fix dird/ua_cmds.c so that a cancel command checks if the
1500 console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
1502 kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
1503 at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
1504 fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
1506 kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
1507 so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
1509 Switch to using Subversion
1510 kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
1512 kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
1513 plus the entrypoints.
1514 kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
1515 in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
1516 part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
1518 kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
1519 loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
1521 kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
1522 with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
1523 ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
1525 kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
1526 problem is with read or append.
1528 kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
1529 kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
1530 memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
1531 kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
1532 termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
1533 (i.e. migration jobs).
1534 kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
1535 a memory leak problem.
1536 kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
1537 in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
1538 to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
1539 kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
1540 rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
1541 methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
1542 (hides some of the ugly casting).
1543 kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
1544 readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
1545 strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
1546 kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
1547 rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
1548 by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
1549 uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
1550 should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
1551 contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
1553 kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
1555 ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
1556 kes Reorder projects file in order determined by Jan 2007 vote.
1557 kes Implement item #12 on project list -- quick release of FD by
1559 kes Fix open of SQLite3 db where user does not have write permission
1560 so that DIR does not crash. Fixes bug #761.
1562 kes Add back missing @ in Win32 Makefile.
1563 kes Change 'Device not configured to autolabel' from INFO
1565 kes Fix jobq.c to restart failed jobs when Reschedule Times = 0
1566 which should restart an indefinite # of times.
1567 kes Fix configure --help to print --with-mysql[=DIR]. Same for
1568 other DIR specifications.
1570 rn Fix msvc build problems. Fix bacula.dll exports for msvc build.
1571 Fix path quoting in SQLite scripts.
1572 Fix problems with SHGetFolderPath.
1574 kes Create patches/2.0.1-restart.patch. Fixes bug #755.
1576 kes Fix Job restart on error bug that promotes an Inc to a Full
1577 backup. This should fix bug #755.
1578 kes Add qt-console and first cut of code.
1582 kes Fix Bacula->Documentation link on Win32 to point to index.html
1583 instead of bacula.html. Fixed bug #750.
1584 kes Return JobId in db_get_job_record() when JobId==0. This should
1586 kes Do not release source pointers when restarting a failed job.
1588 kes Add dynamic dll entry point for SHGetFolderPath to Win32 code.
1589 This *should* fix bug #747.
1590 kes Modify winbacula.nsi to substitute with g bin_dir_cmd. Should fix
1593 kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
1594 and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
1595 this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
1596 kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
1597 kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
1598 SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
1600 kes Add code to indicate when the SD is spooling, spool wait, and
1601 despooling as requested by Alan Brown.
