- unique.
-kes Change the name of gnome-console to bgnome-console to make it
- more Bacula unique.
-14Apr07
-kes Some time in March, a Feature Request with patch from Jorj Bauer
- <jorj@seas.upenn.edu> was committed by Landon (with my approval).
- It implements:
- The ability for the director to validate a Client (FD) CN against
- an arbitrary set of patterns rather than the hostname, with
- A new 'TLS Allowed CN' set of directives which are implemented
- in the Client resource. Then pattern matching is used in place
- of hostname matching against the Certificate's CN. As an example, we
- have certificates which (a) use a local CA, and (b) have a CN of the
- form client_123.

- it should normally be off in a production system.
-10Apr07
-kes Implement die command for SD so that we can force it to dump.
-kes Implement SD lock debug code.
-kes Implement new algorithm for keeping Volume list in SD. It
- is now owned by the device.

- it has changed during backup, if 'checkfilechanges' is set.
- The FD will do an extra check (stat(2)) after
- each file backup. mtime, ctime and size are compared with
- 'before backup' information. If time or size mismatch, an
- error message will be generated. You must upgrade FD to use it.
-30Mar07

- Pruning is turned off for the status dir command, but turned on
- for SD requests and for the list nextvolume command.
-24Mar07
-kes Correct Qmsg() that was not updated correctly when committing a
- previous change (probably the recent TLS patch).
-23Mar07
-kes Write new subroutine is_volume_purged() that explicitly checks
- if the Volume is purged, and if so marks it as such. This should
- resolve problems reported about needing to mount twice to recycle
- volumes.
-kes Rewrite pruning algorithm to do more work in the SQL engine, and
- to pass a list of JobIds to be deleted to SQL. Also, minimize the
- amount of duplicated code.
-kes Do volume pruning only for the Media Type desired (reduces pruning time
- if multiple Media Types are in the same pool).
-kes Implement more detailed info in the Job report for the Bacula version
- and architecture.
-kes Switch from POOLMEM to POOL_MEM (a real class) in ua_prune.c and
- ua_purge.c.
-ebl Add bbatch tool to bench database and insert mode.
- Fix sql quote stuff in batch mode
- Fix sql stuff for mysql
-22Mar07
-kes Correct problems with am/pm scheduling. Fixes bug #808.

- that the tape position has not been changed. If so fail the
- job.

- and bacula access to the DB.
-kes Correct a misplaced variable definition in src/filed/backup.c
-kes Correct how the new batch insert db_create_attributes_record()
- uses the arguments. Caused a seg fault in bscan.
-kes Implement lock() and unlock() methods in DEVICE class.
- Implement block() and set_block(xx) methods in DEVICE class.
-kes Modify bnet_connect() so that it uses time() to check for the
- wait time expiring (on some OSes, some system calls may not
- return immediately).
-kes Modify Verify to obtain the previous JobId when it is actually
- running rather than at schedule time (as it was in 1.38.x).
-kes Fix src/job.c to handle MaxWaitTime correctly. This should
- fix bug #802.

-kes Allow 20 console connections (instead of only 10).
-04Mar07
-kes Add smartctl call to bacula-sd.conf as an example of getting
- tape alert info.
-02Mar07
-kes Modify jobq.c to let simultaneous restore jobs run. This may
- cause them to fail if they cannot get a drive.
-kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
- modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.
-29Feb07

-kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
- not be zeroed.
-kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
- who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
- them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
-21Feb07
-kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
- than English. Fixes bug #788.
-20Feb07
-ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.
- This fixes bug #780
- You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.
- It will be fixed soon.
- If you want to use this, you can apply
- trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
-19Feb07
-kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
- no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
- set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
-ebl finish RecyclePool feature
- Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
- when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do
- update volume=xxx frompool
- To use it, add RecyclePool = aPool to your Pool resource
- Pool {
- Name = Default
- RecyclePool = Scratch
- ...
- }
- TODO: update manual
-kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
-kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
- that returns more information and will make it easier
- to interface to the Director from a program.
-18Feb07
-kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
- obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
- first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
-kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
- changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
- implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
- the Changer Command to an empty string.
-17Feb07
-kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
- in a single write() request rather than in two.
-ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
- volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool

- was opened, it is closed.
-10Feb07
-kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
-kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
- in the case of orphaned records.
-kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
- and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
- idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
-kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
- the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
- happens to the ScratchPool?
-kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
- times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
- simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
- should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
- times are in Bacula units.
-kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
-09Feb07
-kes Update projects list.
-08Feb07
-kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
- the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
- large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.
-kes Fix dird/ua_cmds.c so that a cancel command checks if the
- console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
- #767.
-kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
- at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
- fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
- to fail.
-kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
- so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
-07Feb07
- Switch to using Subversion
-kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
-06Feb07
-kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
- plus the entrypoints.
-kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
- in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
- part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
-05Feb07
-kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
- loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
- Fixes bug #771.
-kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
- with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
-ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
-04Feb07
-kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
- problem is with read or append.
-02Feb07
-kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
-kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
- memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
-kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
- termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
- (i.e. migration jobs).
-kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
- a memory leak problem.
-kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
- in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
- to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
-kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
- rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
- methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
- (hides some of the ugly casting).
-kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
- readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
- strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
-kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
- rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
- by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
- uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
- should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
- contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
-28Jan07
-kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
-26Jan07
-ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.

+kes Don't print job report twice for failed VBackup jobs.
+24Oct08

+ new code and could possibly cause some conflicts.
+23Oct08
+kes Integrate James Harper's Exchange Win32 plugin patch.
+kes Apply patch from Marco van Wieringen that implements the new
+ Solaris libsec interface for ACLs so that Bacula can save and
+ restore both the new ACLs and old ACLs.

+ so that it works properly both with shared libraries and static
+ libraries.
+kes Marco's patch also includes a small cleanup of the cats Makefile
+ to remove some references to non-existent files.
+22Oct08

+kes Add James' binutils patch
+kes Split volume management code out of src/stored/reserve.c into

+kes Apply Eric's patch to ensure that autoprune does not return
+ a Volume not in the autochanger unless requested to do so.

+kes Fix mtx-changer to detect both versions of Ubuntu (Debian)
+ mt. This fixes bug #1116.
+kes Add const in python files to reduce compiler warnings.
+ This may have to be backed out because of later compiler

+ clear_unload() only after drive is defined in acquire_for_read().
+27Jun08
+kes Generally clean up the manual tape loading code. The main

+ when either the autoloader says it is unloaded or another tape
+ is read on that drive.
+25Jun08
+kes Add debug code and refactor subroutine in stored/mount.c
+kes Fix format problem in bscan output reported in bug #1105.

+ overrides are kept. This should fix bug #1094.

+ autochanger.
+09Jun08

+ebl Update vtape driver.
+08Jun08
+ebl Modify vtape driver to avoid sparse file.
