-16Feb04
-- Add a lot of "const" to char * arguments to keep the native
- Sun compiler happy.
-- Added first cut of message queuing to prevent recursion in
- low level routines. This code is not yet working.
-- Spent a *huge* amount of time looking at the tape driver
- code in the wake of several reports of tape labels getting
- trashed. The code looks fine.
-- Created a tape with an error (by writing a block at the
- beginning of a tape that had valid data), and found that
- Under Linux there is no way to read past an I/O error.
- I tried mt; I tried my own program (btape); and I tried
- using scsitape, which talks directly to the scsi driver.
- This is *VERY BAD* news.
-- I spent an *enormous* amount of time enhancing the btape
- test program as well as making the fill command work with
- both one and two tapes and the autochanger if configured.
- The multiple tape fill test is now quite comprehensive.
- It checks the last block on the first tape, the first block
- on the second tape, and the last block (11) on the second
- tape.
-- Teaked the tape driver for several functions to use the
- OS driver's notion of mt_file if there is an error.
-13Feb04
-- Add DB update scripts retrieved by Scott to a new updatedb
- directory at the top level.
-- Add -p option to bcopy to allow ignoring errors on input.
-- COALESCE(xx,0) does not work on PostgreSQL because the 0 is not a
- correct time. Replaced by adding LastWritten IS NULL to the sort
- line as was first suggested by JML.
-12Feb04
-- Use COALESCE(LastWritten, 0) in sql_find.c to get NULLs to sort last.
- See note above.
-- Add write/read and positioning test to btape "test" program.
-10Feb04
-- Fix bad printf of InChanger flag reported by Pascal Pederiva.
-- Fix bad indexing off stack in authenticate.c reported by
- Pascal Pederiva.
-09Feb04
-- Add \n to hosts.access reject message.
-- Implement security message class and make hosts.access message use
- that class.
-08Feb04
-- Fix check_memory bug in ua_query.c, which gives a bus error on Solaris.
- This affected only the query command.
-07Feb04
-- Added backup to cdwriter script to examples provided by Johan Decock.
-- Fixed a bug where ls really did lsmark (just invert command table
- entries).
-- Fix bug where a soft linked file and a directory had the same name
- by treating the soft link as a directory and putting the entries under
- it. This fixes the bug reported by Alexander Mueller.
-- Fix a deadlock situation in the new watchdog code where the
- watchdog locks its semaphore, and attempts to lock the jcr_chain,
- but another thread has locked the jcr_chain and wants to free a
- watchdog, which tries to lock the watchdog semaphore -- deadlock!
- Used read/write locks to solve the problem.
-- Improved the error messages when I/O errors or buffer id errors
- are detected, and prevent non-sense errors from being printed.
-- Fix some incorrect messages in restore if no name is supplied
- on the command line (e.g. pool= ).
-- Add the third digit to the release version number.
-04Feb04
-- Add -l option to bls that causes it to ignore tape label errors.
-03Feb04
-- Correct problems with jobs scheduled at a later time by hand.
- Missing unlock(), backward test on pthread_create status.
-- Fix setip crash reported by Alan Brown.
-- Create bacula.spec.in in SuSE directory from Scott.
-- Fix missing unlock() in ua_status on access denial.
-- Lots of little cleanups, improving jcr use_count debug printing.
-- Add EMSG to mem_pool utilization statistics.
-01Feb04
-- New bacula.spec.in file from Scott
-- Add Scott's spec file to the platforms/suse directory
-- Modify configure.in to make platforms/suse/bacula.spec
-- Do not allow a resource name to be specified twice.

-2004-01-30 Version 1.33-30Jan04 Release
-30Jan04
-- Apply Jess Guardiani's second fix to list autochanger volumes without
- opening the drive (necessary on FreeBSD if no tape is in the drive).
-- Added Postgresql configure search libraries recommended by Alan Brown.
-29Jan04
-- Reworked the command line handler in restore to walk through the
- arguments one at a time. This makes the file= entries work correctly.
- Also reworked the code that takes the MediaType and finds a
- storage device.
-26Jan04
-- I've noticed that the backups of Rufus, my development machine, can be
- "stuck" for about 12 hours, then suddenly they run. In running the
- debugger, I see that it was stuck on the select() statement waiting
- for the Hello. Why this happens I am not sure. I re-organized the code
- a bit because it didn't seem to be as robust as it could, but I cannot
- explain the problem.
-- As a consequence of the above, I have implemented a new bsock timer that
- can be started and stopped. This is based on Nic Bellamy's new watchdog
- code. The timer is set with start_bsock_timer(bsock, timeout); If the
- timeout expires, the bsock will be marked as timed_out and interrupted
- with a pthread_kill() on the current thread.
-- Added 5 minute bsock timers to all the opening Hello/authentication
- exchanges between the various daemons.
-24Jan04
-- New spec file from Scott.

-- Implement setip console command to set new IP address for a Client.
-17Jan04
-- Implement maximum network buffer size directives.
-- Good first cut at access control lists for the console.
-- Optimize restore to select only latest Differential backup after
- the Full, and then all following Incremental backups. Previously
- everything after Full was selected.
-16Jan04
-- Organize kernstodo a bit (more to be done).
-- Add client IP address to BSOCK structure.
-- Use bit fields where appropriate in BSOCK structure.
-- Pass UAContext to ua authenticate in Director, and make it
- set the appropriate console (or NULL for none).

-- Add device name or Volume name to some SD messages.
-15Jan04
-- First cut multiple consoles.
-14Jan04
-- Update kernstodo
-- Add quit command to restore tree handler.
-- Make restore tree handler remember if a hard link is present, and
- in doing a mark, only get database entry if there is a hard link.
- mark commands thus run at least 2 orders of magnitude faster.
-- Add files=xxx field to run command submitted for restore.
-- Add yes to restore run command if either yes or run is command line
- argument.
-- Make "yes" on command line argument skip prompt for modification of
- run job.
-- Add markdir and unmarkdir -- both affect only the directory in
- question and do not do a recursive descent.
-- Make tree command automatically mark all higher level directories to
- be restored when a directory or a file is selected. Such directories
- are indicated by preceding the name with a + to indicate that only
- the directory entry is selected and not the whole directory tree.
-- Modify a few tree commands to walk through all arguments rather than
- just taking the first one.
-13Jan04
-- Update copyright date on changed files.
-- Make mark command in restore tree run *much* faster by accessing database only
- if the file actually is hard linked -- determined at time tree it built by
- keeping a has_link bit in the tree entry.
-12Jan04
-- Modify findlib/makepath.c to create all parent directories with full permissions.
- This should solve the access problems on restoring files on Win32 systems.
-- Modify restore to report **** Restore Error **** if any error are found.
- I.e. a file could not be created.
-- Change a few errors into warnings -- e.g. if permissions could not be set, but
- the file is actually restored.
-11Jan04
-- Replace bsd_queue with dlist in lib/watchdog.c
-- Add Date: header to bsmtp. Thanks to Meno Abels (abels) on SourceForge
- for reporting this.
-- Remove ap==NULL check in src/lib/var.c as suggested by Christoph Barbian
- because ap (va_list) is a struct on the Alpha, so the code does not
- compile.
-10Jan04
-- Implement first cut of polling for a Volume. New Device directive
- "Volume Poll Interval = xxx" where xxx is a time specification
- (e.g. 5min). Default is off.
-- Call pthread_cancel on SD msgchan only if the threadid is non-zero.
-07Jan04

-- Allow purge of a single JobId from a Volume (code untested)
-- Implement fix to keep SD from looping complaining about the wrong volume
- at the end of a tape -- reported by Phil, and fix confirmed by him. I cannot

- already completed the save.
-- Replace sprintf with bsnprintf in message.c
-31Dec03
-- Note, this change affects only the Win32 FD.

- Christopher Hull for finding and diagnosing this problem.
-29Dec03
-- Fix SELECT as indicated by Dan in sql_get.c for returning Volume names.
-- Fix last_jobs list crash for utility programs (btape, ...).

-- Enhance btape test by attempting to forward space past the end of the tape.
-- Detect CAP_FASTFSF in btape test as possible reason for failure.
-- Attempt to prevent infinite loops in fsf_dev() if device not properly
- configured.
-- Attempt to get correct file number on tape after backspacing at EOM. The
- correction should resolve differences in OS tape driver implementations.
-- Add ctl-c detection to bconsole. When reading from tty, interrupts any
- output from Bacula, when reading from a file, it terminates the reading
- and returns possibly exiting if it is a batch job.
-- Create devel_bacula.in script and make it configure itself. Very similar
- to the new bacula.in.

-- Use reposition_dev() to position for read back of last block.
-22Nov03
-- Zap InChanger flag only if setting Slot to non-zero.
-- Added new SD directive TwoEOF, default off, that tells Bacula whether
- to write one or two EOFs for EOM. For the OnStream driver it must
- be off, otherwise an empty file will be created.
-- Cleaned up the btape "fill" command to compare the last block written
- and read rather than just printing them.
-21Nov03
-- Implement btape test for autochanger.

- give the SD the best chances of updating the catalog before dying.
-- Add Drive and InChanger to MEDIA_DBR record and to Volume update
- from the SD.
-- Reorganize the Volume info update from SD so that the Dir sends back the
- current information in case the Volume status has changed by expiring.
- The DIR-SD protocol is not backward compatible (must update).
-- Fixed the signal handler to pass the signal to the exit_handler()
- previously it passed 1.
-- Modified SD so that on normal shutdown, it walks through all jcrs and
- cancels them so that the Volume status will be updated in the catalog.
-- Found and fixed a bug where ST_LABEL was not set in append mode
- (when a different tape was accepted other than the original one
- proposed by the DIR.

- database twice, giving a segfault.
-- Fix (hopefully) to dircmd.c so that a mount request does a pthread_cond_signal.
- There was one path were the signal was not sent. This should fix the bug
- that requires you to do two "mount" commands to free a job waiting on a mount.

- specified.
-- Correct some of the messages in testfind.c (pointed out by Dan -- thanks).

- of zlib errors.
-- In filed/restore.c make sure all error returns cleanup
- and close the open file descriptor.

-2003-07-08 Version 1.31 Beta 08Jul03
-- Update document for Win32 stuff.
-- Ensure VolStatus value for update is permitted.
-- Fix cached_path so that it is local to the jcr, otherwise, there
- are problems from job to job.

- and didn't always edit the userid correctly.
-- Correct missing pool memory allocation in update voluseduration.
-- Release mutex in pool_mem.c before triggering ASSERT.
-- Lock database while recycling.
-- Fix a bug in editing since where I forgot to update to the new size.
-- Implement all the command line update arguments.
-- Modify label to use volume=xxx for the new volume and oldvolume=yyy
- if doing a relable.
-- Added yes to run command line arguments.
-- Clear errno in editing a string to utime.
-- In restore print only volumes that will actually be used.
-- Fix bextract -- add appropriate breaks in new case code.
-- Add a new test -- bsr-opt-test for testing bsr optimization. As usual,
- it pointed out a bug where the directory tree handling code destroyed
- the restore arg list.
-- Many updates to the manual.
-- Pass prefix links flag to FD.
-- Sort list of commands for Console
-- Set default FD and SD concurrent jobs to 10.
-- Rework the find next volume code in catreq.c to correct some minor
- but subtle logic errors and to eliminate a goto.
-- Did spell check on manual.
-- Removed bindtextdomain() as it conflicted with RH8.0 headers
-- Fixed parse_args to pass address of POOLMEM struct.
-- Constrain FileIndexes written to BSR to be within range of Volume.
-- Suppress writing volumes to BSR if they are not actually referenced.
-- Make FOPTS use alist for match and base entries.

-- Add command line "yes" to run command to supress prompt.
-- In new alist code, free only if allocated.
-- Overload [] with get() code for alist.
-- Fixed the code that wrote FirstIndex and LastIndex to the database. It
- was not correct at the end of a volume (basically included indexes in
- the second volume).
-- Fixed bscan to work with the new code and to properly build JobMedia
- records.
-- Added code to the read end of block.c to properly track Volume bytes,
- blocks, and files. I thought this was not necessary, but it is critical
- for bscan to work correctly.
-- Modified read_record to properly track First/LastIndex -- needed by
- bscan.
-- Eliminated some old Volume write code.
-- Changed RecycleOldestVolume to PurgeOldestVolume
-- Added what I hope are the "final" touches for Win32 stuff. There
- are still a lot of annoying little problems.
-- Added the "portable=yes/no" option to Include. If set, it disables
- use of BackupRead/Write for Win32, so in principle, the data should
- be portable.
-- Pulled in more recent config.sub and config.guess from /usr/share/libtool
-- Replaced the system fgets() by a Bacula version that ignores
- interrupts (i.e. signals). This truncated output from child processes.
-- Make file_index int32_t everywhere.
-- Moved LinkFI into ATTR structure. Also integrated data_stream there too.
-- Moved code that sets the stream for writing into create_file.
-- Removed a signal(SIG_IGN, SIGCHLD) from dird.c that prevented getting
- the status of child processes. This allowed removing the FreeBSD
- kludge to bpipe.c -- the status is now obtained correctly.
-- Hand scan the stream header that arrives in append.c to avoid machine
- dependencies of sscanf().
-- Implemented code to put Data stream in Attributes record.
-- Check if data stream is supported, if not, ignore.

-- Clear WroteVol in askdir.c when JobMedia record is created.
-- Implement simple array list class for use in Bacula. New files
- are lib/list.c lib/list.h. Probably will not use until version 1.32.
-
-2003-06-24 Version 1.31 Beta 22Jun03
-- Change Purging Oldest Volume message to Recycling Oldest Volume.
-- Limit results from find_oldest_volume to one.
-- Fix possible buffer overrun in the restore tree handling routines.
-- Fixed a crash in VerifyToVolume because I moved the close_db()
- down into the free_ua_context() and should not have done so.
-- At a "var" command in the Console that does variable expansion and
- prints it.
-- Implement first cut of estimate command.
-- Change find_next_volume() for oldest to use LastWritten instead of
- FirstWritten -- also add Append to volumes slected.
-- Do normal recycling before checking for RecycleOldestVolume.
-- Implemented block rejection on read. This should make restores run
- much faster. Next release will have block positioning -- even faster.
-- Very preliminary support for Gnome-2.0. Text does not yet work.
-- Correct buffer corruption in find_one.c with long directory names (Win32).
-- Make setting owner on directories M_ERROR rather than M_WARNING.
-- Fix printing of JobId in run listing for restore job.
-- Reduce heartbeat read check interval to every 10 seconds on Cygwin because
- there is no working pthread_kill().
-- I finally designed a test for multiple simultaneous jobs,
- and sure enough it broke when the jobs are split over multiple
- volumes. Now fixed and working!
-- Eliminated a few "duplicate" error messages by testing for canceled.
-- Add ASSERT for device use count going negative.
-- Fix BlockNumber checking in stored/read.c (got first one wrong).
-- If socket is timed out, do a shutdown(fd,2) instead of close().
-- Fixed return status from SD to FD by setting JobStatus in append_end()
-- Add arrays to Environment variables. Elements separated by |.
-- Implement Reschedule On Error, Reschedule Interval, Reschedule Times.
-- Add a new pool PM_NAME -- gets a name length buffer.
-- Implement fast cancel of FD blocked on writing to SD by using
- pthread_cancel(). Turned off on Cygwin due to bug.
-- Add code to handle EAGAIN in writing (probably not necessary). Use
- select().
-- Eliminate size_t from pool control buffers.
-- Complete Counter resource.
-- Complete LabelFormat (except for WrapCounter) plus counter
- inrementation.
-- This needs a database change to eliminate PoolId from counters.
-- Made a more compact format for the document index.
-- Add Phil's checkhost to examples directory (thanks Phil).
-- Implement generalized LabelFormat (documentation to come).
-- Implement Counter resource.
-- Cleanup examples/kernsconfig
-- Implement restore to a specific date.
-- Fixed a but in automatic labeling (and use durations expiring) analysed
- and reported by Rob Proffitt (thanks!).
-- Cleaned up a few Cygwin compile problems.
-- Made a 10Jun03 release (it is in production here)
-- Finally took the big plunge and fixed restoration of links and other
- files that have been changed between the backup and restore. Basically
- if the file exists, it is deleted, then re-created.
-- Purge only Volumes marked Append, Full, Used, or Error.
-- Allow pruning of volumes marked Append, in addition to Full and Used.
-
-
-2003-06-10 Version 1.31 Beta 10Jun03
-- Eliminated all plain email addresses and replaced them with " at " in
- place of @ to reduce havesting by spammers. Doc + Web Site.
-- Started working on making POOLMEM a struct rather than a char. Lots of
- work to do.
-- Fixed bscan to handle -V option.
-- Fixed bscan to handle two File volumes.
-- Corrected a misplaced comma it get_fileset() in cats pointed out by bscan.
-- Added two Volume bscan test to regression scripts -- write two volumes,
- purge and delete everything, bscan the tapes, and do a restore. It works!
-- Reorganized the backup/restore code to move the attribute information into
- an ATTR packet, which is passed in place of tons of arguments. Moved some
- code into lib/attr.c and lib/attr.h. Then eliminated all the duplicate
- attribute code.
-- Moved FT_ types into baconfig.h.
-- Defined FT_ types to use only 16 bits. The upper half of the word is
- reserved for adding optional fields in the attributes packet.
-- Moved jcr->where into common part of jcr and have it deleted in lib/jcr.c
-- Put all attribute reading code on switch() with cases instead of a big
- if (restore.c, bls.c, bextract.c, bscan.c, ...)
-- set_attributes() now takes ATTR packet, and thus has much fewer args.
-- moved print_ls_output() into lib/attr.c
-- implemented is_stream_supported().
-- create_file() now takes ATTR packet so has many fewer args.
-- add mtime_only code.
-- Rewrote bnet.c read and write routines to quit if bsock->terminated is
- set. This will allow setting non-blocking writes and then receiving
- a termination message and terminating the Job immediately rather than
- waiting 2 hours for the line to timeout.
-- Put catalog db name in some error messages.
-- Code for restore is now much cleaner, with much of it in lib/attr.c,
- and it is now common for all readers.
-- Add first cut of proper support for Win32 Backup code.
-- Fix bug in restore Win95/98/Me.
-- Pass mtime_only flag to FD. Needs config record.
-
-2003-06-04 Version 1.31 Beta 04Jun03
-- Fix block.c to check errno only in case of return status -1 as
- suggested by Justin Gibbs (FreeBSD).
-- Implemented qfill command in btape for quick testing write/read of a tape.
-- Discovered that FreeBSD pthreads re-use the same thread id, which causes
- the SD to fail when a user leaves a device unmounted (old pid is reused
- and lock_device() thinks the same thread is calling again leading to
- inconsistent state). Set id to zero after blocking the device during
- unmount.
-- A lot of clean up, moving subroutines around for TermCode.
-- Free ua->prompt when Job terminates.
-- Add AutoPrune and Recycle to values copied from Pool resource
- into Pool record on create/updated.
-- Implemented bsr for Verify VolumeToCatalog.
-- Improved the Verify Job report using SD and FD term codes.
-- Split tree handling routines from ua_restore.c to ua_tree.c
-- Split bsr routines from ua_restore.c to bsr.c and bsr.h
-- Fixed clash between FD and SD returned job values. Report now contains
- values from FD. Maybe I should change? or give both.
-- Attempt to fix negative use_count for dev packet in SD by adding
- a couple of open_dev(). This may be cause of Dan's crash.
-- Clear no_wait_id when device is unblocked. This may be cause of Dan's crash.
-- Eliminate old "new lock code".
-- Add configure of mtx-changer for mtx path.
-- Always rewind tape before releasing it (for FreeBSD).
-- StartBlock was one too large for second volume.
-- Fixed restore to display status from both SD and FD.
-- Unified return status message for backup and restore.
-- Corrected segmentation fault reported by Dan when doing "label barcodes"
- on a File.
-- Corrected a segmentation fault when attempting to send a JobMedia record
- to the Console -- reported by Dan.
-- Added MySQL documentation for using the threaded libraries.
-- Added new columns and tables to Catalog database.
-- Wrote alter scripts and tested them (thanks to Dan for the help) on
- MySQL and SQLite.
-- Started using enums where ever possible when passing flags to
- subroutines. This helps make the source much more readable.
-- Corrected a bug where a vertical database listing was being used in
- the query command.
-- Added new argument to parse_args() to prevent command arg overflow.
-- Renamed ua_db_query.c ua_query.c.
-- Split scan.c out of lib/util.c
-- Perhaps I have *finally* fixed the command line history in gnome-console.
-- Added support for smartalloc for any global new or delete command
- by overloading the global operators.
-- Made the default time with no qualifier day rather than seconds.
-- Fixed a bug in the store_size() routine that improperly converted from
- double to uint32_t.
-- Started using "bool" where possible.
-- Zap SD session key once it is used.
-- Added *lots* more checking for strcpy -- bstrncpy(), ...
-- Added CreateTime field to FileSet record and print it to distinguish
- FileSets.
-- Print an information message when a new FileSet is created.
-- Include the FileSet date/time in the Job report.
-- Indicate if a Job is upgraded in the Job report and from what previous level.
-- Incremented the database version.
-- Ensure that any DB error message is printed if the start_time of a previous
- save is not found.
-- Free orphaned buffer in ua_restore.c in case of database error.
-- Implement enum for response DISPLAY_ERROR and NO_DISPLAY
-- Implement enum for create_pool (POOL_OP_CREATE, POOL_OP_UPDATE).
-- Make sure FileSets printed in restore are in order.
-- Add a number of bstrncat, and other protected string operations.
-- Clean up old structs in dird_conf.h
-- Remove all Slot invalidation code.
-- Add Automatic choice message to all do_prompt() calls.
-- Eliminate JobId from restore if not used.
-- Clean up a few error messages.
-- Make fill/unfill commands work correctly in btape.
-- Enhance btape fill and unfill commands.
-- Implement real Pmsg() code so that negative levels work in Dmsg()
-- Implement block number check -- had to turn it off because it doesn't
- work. Need to verify that it is the correct block and that block
- numbers are properly written.
-- Moved readline from depkgs1 to depkgs.
-- Reworked the configure code to handle readline correctly. This was broken
- mostly due to the fact that the readline routines are nested down one
- directory. Also, I missed one header file that was needed (possibly added
- in a later version).
-- Put correct include on the dependencies make for Console readline.
-- Remove JobMediaId from VOL_PARAMS (no longer needed).
-- Sort VOL_PARAMS by JobMediaId using SQL in cats.
-- Add jcr as argument to block.c read_block... routines so that error
- messages are immediately displayed.
-- Make bsr_dev() edit an error message if it is turned off and return 0.
-- Add checking for the BlockNumber in the read routines -- lots of
- false matches are found -- much check writing end.
-- Now sort bsr volumes by JobMediaId -- produces better results.
-- It turns out that under certain circumstances, when doing a restore, the
- Volumes will not be written to the BSR in the correct order. I don't
- know exactly why, but many thanks to Dan Langille for reporting this.
- The solution is to sort the Vol_Params within each bsr (done), and to
- sort the bsr chain (not yet implemented). Note, the bsr chain should
- always be in order unless the user explicitly specifies the JobIds in
- a different order.
-- Began implementing C++ structs rather than typedef structs as in C.
-- Added volatile to a lot of variables that are used in two threads at
- the same time. This should prevent improper optimization.
-- Fixed a missing space in the "run job=xxx where=" the where was
- glued to the end of the previous stuff (bootstrap filename).
-- I *finally* found the cause of the mysterious failure of shell expansion.
- It was due to the read() getting interrupted! That's what opening up
- SIGCHLD will do!
-- Remove unused default tape drive names.
-- Create a new status.c file in stored and split the status code out of dircmd.c
-
-2003-05-22 Version 1.31 Beta 22May03
-- I discovered that C++ permits "prototyping" structures e.g. struct A; is
- a valid statement. This permitted me to eliminate all the void *jcr, in
- favor of JCR *jcr, which pointed out a number of bugs in block.c.
-- Change lib/bmisc.c to bsys.c (system routines).
-- Add set_working_directory() to lib/util.c
-- Remove some unneeded setjcr_job_status() since Jmsg(jcr, M_FATAL,...)
- already sets it.
-- Do not increment jcr->Errors for Fatal errors -- they represent non-fatal
- errors.
-- Fix a few more places in FD where Errors was not incremented.
-- Print unexpected (or incorrect) termination message returned from FD.
-- Use switch() instead of giant if statement in verify_vol.c
-- Protect overrun from do_shell_expansion() by passing max length.

-- Update manual to eliminate unclear autochanger points as mentioned
- by Dan Langille.

- as non-root (scriptdir was not prefixed with $RPM_BUILD_ROOT).
-- Correct Auto Changers and all other forms to Autochangers in the
- manual.
-- John reported needing to do two "mount" requests, and indeed that

-- Include RunBeforeJob and RunAfterJob output in job output report.
-- Implement a "real" Admin job that prints a mini-job report.
-- Clean up a few error messages in findlib and filed.
-- Recent changes to gnome-console caused initial output to be
- lost -- now fixed.
-- The Win32 version crashed after each job. After hours, it turns out
- that when running with LocalSystem privilege (and not as a user), when
- Cygwin does pthread_kill(id, SIGUSR2), it gets a memory fault.
-- Moved stored/fdmsg.c to lib/bget_msg.c, and moved SD messages to
- stored.c. So now bget_msg() can be used by both the SD and FD.
-- Changed Director's bget_msg() to be called bget_dirmsg() to avoid
- any possible confusion.
-- Implemented bget_msg() in general everywhere in the FD except for

-- All command line "slot" to be specified for label command.
-- Rework heartbeat code in FD to correctly terminate.
-- Fix btraceback to use smtp and to eliminate double //

-- Add Heartbeat code when SD is waiting on a tape -- heartbeat every 20 mins
- to keep stateful firewalls from timing out the connections.
-- Fix src/stored/Makefile.in typo causing problems in statically linking
- btape. Thanks to Lutz for reporting this.
-- Create an is_client_alive script for checking if a client is alive.
- Using this script prevents generating error messages.
-- Added corrections and updates to manual provided by Phil -- thanks.
-- Added RequireSSL to each program/daemon configuration.
-- Added EnableSSL to each correspondent for each program.
-- Added the Console resource to the Director (need to
- implement individual Console authorization).
-
-2003-04-28 Version 1.30 released
-- Fix command history for gnome-console (must malloc).
-- Add two cancel points in acquire_resources(). The job will not
- be immediately terminated in all cases.
-- The new AutoMount code broke File archives -- fixed.
-- Correct watchdog mutex race introduced yesterday.
-- Add JobLevel to Admin run started by UA.
-- Add -v to daemon startup scripts
-- Implement bmicrosleep(sec, msec);
-- Implement When for "run" command.
-- Remove unsigned from socklen_t definition in hopes it will work better
- with older systems.
-- Remove code that attempts to set PID dir and SUBSYS dir if they
- do not exist because it set them to sbindir!
-- Modify mount to initially attempt to read the volume if Bacula
- wants a tape, none is mounted, and "Automatic Mount = yes" is set.
-- Prohibit setting --sbindir and --with-subsys-dir the same.
-- Fix missing argument that cause Kaboom in update slots.
-- Fix orphaned bsock when UA gets error contacting FD or SD
-- Nearly full implementation of Win Backup API, but it does not
- work due to lack of permission! Arggg!
-- Implemented restoring directory permissions as they should be.
-- Implemented reasonable regression script. It found a number of
- restore errors.
-- Implemented the following @ commands in the console that work directly
- in the console rather than in the Director.
- input - read input from a file
- output - write output to file
- tee - tee output to file and terminal
- time - print current time
- version - print current version
- exit - quit
- quit - quit
-- Implemented new bfile io routines that will permit implementation of
- Windows native APIs for reading/writing files.
-- By default always update hard links with the prefix, but do
- not update soft links. It seems inconsistent, but it is what
- cp does.
-- Implement wait command in Console that waits until no jobs are running.
-- Fixed the < code in Include/Excludes, which forgot to skip over the <.
-- Do NOT attempt to chmod() a soft link as it will change the file behind
- the link!
-- OOPS! Lutz ran into a problem. In attempting to prevent string overflows,
- I used bstrncpy() on a variable that was malloc'ed thus truncating
- Volume names! Arrrggggg!
-- Lots of documentation of new features.
-- Rework Volume name scanning in console, made much more logical
- and corrected a bug (confusion in calling sequence).
-- Cleaned up a few error messages in cats adding more info.
-- Add the IP address to error messages due to bad connects to servers.
-- Implement default File output in config files so user can start
- saving right away without a tape drive.
-- Protect inet_ntoa() with mutex in case it is not thread safe.
-- Eliminate termcap from use in gnome console.
-- Remove unused SD maximum volume files and maximum volume jobs. They
- are implemented in the Director.
-- Make the default for Incremental and Differential saves to compare
- against both st_mtime and st_ctime rather than just st_mtime.
- This includes files moved or copied.
- Thanks to Matthias Wamser for bringing this fix to our attention.
-- On Win32 clients, make a pass through the include/exclude patterns
- and change any back slashes to foward slashes. Prevents creating
- unusable directory names containing both conventions.
-- Move ls -l output on restored files to M_RESTORED class.
-- Make gnome-console compile correctly on RH8.0
-- label barcodes now works.
-- Implemented "update slots".
-- Tweak btape "test" to always print suggestion for re-read last block.
-- Implemented "Cleaning Prefix"
-- Update alter_mysql_tables.in
-- More work on barcodes.
-- Zap VolHdr in SD when attempting to label a tape that is not
- there. Prevents false tape names the next label command.
-- First cut of bar code reading is implemented. It doesn't do
- anything but return the list to the Director.
-- Implemented relabel command that relabels "Purged" Volumes.
-- Check exit code in RunBeforeJob and err the job if it is non-zero.
-- Remove old testsuite -- too complicated
-- Print length when Authorization fails because of bad length.
-- Fix problem of NumVols in Pool getting reset on startup.
-- Implement full listing of DB records by listing them vertically
- instead of horizontally.
-- Make changes to mysql scripts as suggested by Lutz Kittler
-- Fixed code to write Uname to Client record.
-- Fixed a problem (in btape) where Pmsg() was not printing.
-- Moved re-read last block test to last in "test" command of btape.
-- Lots of new documentation.
-- Fixed newvol.c to handle retrying 10 times if the volume name already exists.
-- Removed int_least16_t from sha1.h because it does not exist on some systems.
-- Release job in SD if canceled and waiting on a mount (better cancellation).
-- Prompt for Client in restore if not specified.
-- Print "Selection is empty!" if no selection list found.
-- Add new spec files and bacula.desktop from Scott.
-- Update client every time a job is run.
-- Add verbose option to daemons for printing more user error info.
-- Test if console works with readline 4.3 (yes, it is OK).
-- Release new depkgs
-- Release new winbacula.
-- Add Uname info to Client DB record.
-- Improve error messages and make them more consistent when a non-existent
- Device is requested.
-- Separated the -mwindows option so that only Windows programs
- are built with it (bacula-fd, ...) the tty tools such as console
- dbcheck, smtp, testfind, ... are now able to be run in a standard
- Windows DOS box.
-- Add | and < options to Exclude the same as in Include.
-- Add typed in input to the text window in the gnome-console.
-- Change function that gets the entry text (previously had orphaned buffer).
-- Fix multiple Director problem in gnome-console (thanks to Lutz Kittler).
-- Thanks to Renato, I was able to test Bacula on a FreeBSD tape drive.
- There are a number of significant differences: 1. reading less than
- the number of bytes in a record returns an I/O error. 2. ioctl(MTEOM)
- looses the file position. 3. Reading two two EOF marks (or ioctl(MTEOM))
- leave you positioned after the second EOF, so you must backspace file
- to be able to append.
-- Added BSF at EOM = yes/no to Device resource to allow proper positioning
- at the end of a FreeBSD tape.
-- Made btape "test" do much better testing of error conditions (i.e.
- it now ensures that the append went well). It will automatically
- detect problems and apply fixes and then retry the test, if it
- finally succeeds, it clearly says what directives need changing.
-- Add Scott Barninger's rpm changes to the build environment
-- Add changes to mtx-changer so users can add eject and sleep for
- certain autochangers.
-- Implemented FreeBSD chflags (user defined flags).
-- Turn restore errors during setting of owner and modes into
- warning messages -- for restoring files as non-root.
-- Fix how prefixes are handled in restoring soft links.
-- Modified btape "test" command to do only those things that
- Bacula actually does. There is much more explanation, ...
-- Update manual.
-- Finally had to back up to gcc version 2 from version 3 to avoid version
- 3 nightmares.
-- Final cygwin tweaks.
-- Move start time to *after* the resource locks are acquired.
-- Unable to duplicate Phil's disabling of Bacula with nmap, but
- did make the authentication code a bit more conservative for
- dealing with bad input.
-- Added code to the query command to escape all strings input
- before substitution and sending to the SQL engine.
-- Escape user entered filenames for restore command.
-- Cleaned up the waiting code a bit -- using broadcast instead
- of signal and counting the waiters.
-- Implement new pthreads semaphore code.
-- #define new semaphore code rather than workq on USE_SEMAPHORE.
-- Lots of improvements to the document to address recent support requests.
-- Implement cycle through a set of tapes suggested by Eugeny
- Fisher with the "RecycleOldestVolume=yes" record in the
- Pool resource. Basically this record causes Bacula to purge
- to oldest tape when no more tapes are found.
-- Correct a number of small incorrect interactions between limit
- variables during recycling.
-- Corrected a bug in db_create_media_record() where VolMaxFiles and
- VolMaxJobs was not written to the database.
-- When the Director starts, the Pool record is updated in the
- database with the current contents of the Pool resource.
-- Corrected bnet_connect() to immediately stop (rather than looping
- for the timeout period) if there is a fatal error (socket, or
- hostname to ip).
-- Reworked "purge" code to make purging Volumes easier.
-- Made "list volumes" list the volumes in all pools -- also
- "list volumes pool=Default" does not produce and error message.
-- List Pool record after doing "update pool".
-- Remove pid file code from Win32 -- not really necessary.
-- Make bnet handle null jcr during cancel rather than crash.
-- Add CygwinInstall.bat and CygwinUnInstall.bat
-- Add db_lock() around newvol.c code to prevent race condition if multiple
- callers want a new Volume name.
-- Lots of cleanup to Win32 code, with additional error messages.
-- Make Bacula work on Win95 (test for GetAttributesEx).
-- Add better error messages when end of media is reached or volume
- capacity execed.
-- Turned off signal catching in readline(), necessary to keep console
- from crashing on ctl-Z with RedHat 8.0. Thanks to David Craigon for
- testing this.
-- Make the 3rd and hopefully final change to the Finclude structures.
- This new version permits multiple sets of options (more code to be
- written) to be applied against the same set of files. Thus one can
- have options that with match of *.gz and a different set of options
- for *.c, ...
-- Integrated GNOME Console font resource code supplied by Phil Stracchino.
-- Check for job_cancelled() in bnet_connect() code to stop wait loop if
- client not available.
-- Fix early end of file scanning conf file in lex.c, which previously
- caused ABORT -- now reports error. This could happen with an unterminated
- string for example.
-- Move Maximum File Size code before write and detect error on writing EOF.
-- Additional fix for Solaris 2.6 and a bdb.c fix submitted by Armin Buehler.
-- Added detection for Solaris 2.6, which uses older setsockopt() calls.
-- Defined sockopt_val_t for setsockopt() calls.
-- Added fixes sent by Bevan Anderson that fix multiple connects to FD
- (I zap keys for security, so must put back dummy key). Also a fix
- to the Internal database that wrote garbage after the filename in
- the database.
-- Back out the __SVR4 changes.
-- Add automatic configuration of socklen_t
-- Attempt to fix problems reported by Lutz with multiple simultaneous
- open file Volumes (experimental code). Serialized acquire. This may
- fix the problem, but more thought and testing is necessary.
-- Add table of "supported" autochanger models.
-- Add Solaris 2.6 (__SRV4) changes sent by Peter Schmitz.
-- Correct tape selection code in SD (|| => &&). Thanks to Chuck Hemker
- for the patch.
-- Eliminate FileOptions. Implement new Finclude and Fexclude that
- have file options contained in it. New structure must be transmitted
- to FD.
-- Split Include/Exclude into new inc_conf.c file.
-- Cleanup new Include/Exclude and FileOptions. Structures in Director
- now correct. Must transmit FileOptions to FD.
-- WARNING: With the adddress and port code in the Catalog you MUST
- remove old address= and dport= records!!!!!
-- Added code to remove cancelled jobs from the workq -- needs testing.
-- Added first cut AIX from output James MacLean sent me.
-- Second cut of FileOptions.
-- First cut of parsing FileOptions and Counters.
-- Added address:port for MySQL as well as socket for local access.
-- Fixed job.c in filed to properly handle excluded files. Apparently
- I changed the daemon protocol but forgot to update the code.
-- Enhance testfind to handle include and exclude files
-- Fix getdomainname() prototype for Darwin
-- Added new -u and -g options for specifying userid and groupid to
- use when running, so that Bacula can reduce its privileges.
-- When Bacula was hanging due to an NFS volume being down, I
- fixed a few places in the File daemon where is should have immediately
- terminated the connection instead of waiting for the Director to do so.
-- Added first cut support for Darwin.
-- Temporarily comment out the O_NOFOLLOW to avoid possible subtle problems.
-- Implemented O_NOFOLLOW in creating files in create_file.c to prevent
- creating a file at the end of a symbolic link.
-- Use chown() if lchown() does not exist (e.g. Darwin).
-- Always close stdin on startup to avoid having /dev/console attached.
-- Change all DATE occurrences to BDATE because it is used by Cygwin headers.
-- Add printing of Volume names in SD status output.
-- Display all open devices in device chain in SD status output.
-- All changing Pool in console run command.
-- Thanks to Eric Bollengier for pointing out that the run_program()
- return status was not correctly generated. Now fixed (I hope).
-- Corrected crash in Internal Database getting Volumes.
-- Flush all daemon messages at the end of every job.
-- Fix Install.bat script so that Bacula restarts after reboot on WinNT/2K systems.
-- Minor changes in the gnome-console directory.
-- Integrated in my old Tcl/Tk code into src/tconsole and moved it up
- from C to C++. Pretty crude, but it is a beginning.
-- Close syslog() %n exploit in message.c
-- Edit space before each line in gconsole.
-- Added INCEXE structure so we can have FileOptions.
-- Added support for multiple simultaneous open file volumes.
-- Fix hard linked files so that the one saved is always restored.
-- Add * to restore "dir" listing to indicate marked files.
-- Add ability to make md5sum and sha1sum in lib directory.
-- Work a bit more on the new daemon protocol.
-- Use unmask of 022 or more restive
-- Create File volumes with 0640 permissions
-- Added support for SHA1 signature. Need to modify DB to have type.
-- Document SHA1.
-- Work a bit on getting proper child status from bpipe calls.
-- Added Ludwig's mtx-changer to the examples/devices directory.
-- Added a Warning not to use the Internal Database when it is initialized.
-- Compiled and tested SHA1, and added it to the library.
-- Added code to print the "load slot" status after autoloading.

-=============================================================================
-2003-01-24 Version 1.29 released
-23Jan03
-- Tightened up permissions on all .conf files to be 640 so they are not
- world readable.
-22Jan03
-- Added prefixlinks=yes/no Job record to specify applying the Where
- prefix to absolute soft links. Code is not yet passed to FD, because
- FD would then be incompatible with version 1.28.
-- Added skeleton of installation for Gentoo release for Patrick Naubert.
-- Add timer on open() for reading or writing a FIFO file.
-- Put btraceback and btraceback.gdb in sysbin dir (a bit of polution,
- but at least dumps will work).
-20Jan03
-- Added "append" all messages to a log to default bacula-dir.conf
-- Added WriteBootstrap to default bacula-dir.conf
-- Made smartall.c print "Out of memory" if malloc() fails.
-- Added pthread btimer routines.
-- Added timer to FIFO open statement
-- George was still having problems with VolUseDuration failing.
- On looking into it, one line of code subtracting 1900 was
- mysteriously missing from the source -- bizarre.
-18Jan03
-- Yesterday's version corrects all the problems I was
- previously having, and my production jobs are now completing
- properly.
-- Added a #define dev_cap() to test the capabilities bits. I just
- makes the code a bit shorter and a bit simpler.
-- Added phase 1 support for an output fifo device. The big
- difference here is that it is a STREAM device, which means that
- Bacula will only write to it and not read. Thus, Bacula assumes
- that the correct "Volume" is mounted and will construct a valid
- label (without needing the Volume to be prelabeled), and write
- to the device.
-- Added phase 1 support for input from fifo device (suppress re-read,
- add empty buffer flag).
-17Jan03
-- Improve printout of dbcheck with # files/path fixing.
-- Zap SD authorization code after use.
-- Added <> back to smtp (think about this some)
-- Doc
-16Jan03
-- Massive change to add jcr as the first argument to nearly
- every db_ call. This is because I was storing the jcr in the
- db structure, which will not work because everyone shares
- exactly the same structure.
-- More cleanups of error termination status in filed.
-- Found another bug in message.c where %s was missing in JmsgN. A lot
- of cleanup in message.c
-- Found places where filename listing was made (restore, verify
- vol) where the buffer could possibly overrun.
-- Chain include files on the end of the list so that the
- order will be correct.
-- Rewrote mtx-changer to output one slot per line terminated by
- a colon followed by an optional Volume Tag for the "list" command.
- Preparation for handling Volume Tags.
-- My production crash remains elusive. Adding debug code or running
- under the debugger eliminates the problem. I found a case in
- message.c where I was extending the message string by two
- characters to send it to the console. VERY BAD. Rewritten.
-- Started implementing fifo and program handlers (i.e. streams)
- in the Storage daemon. Lots to do.
-- Added a trace capability where trace statements are written
- to a file. Tmsg(). Hopefully this won't be used much.
-- Running lots of "production" saved by scheduling a few minutes
- after the current time -- slow process ...
-15Jan03
-- Removed <> on From and To in smtp.c as suggested by James MacLean.
-- Added code to suppress spurious error messages during cancel,
- but I was unable to eliminate all errors -- to be worked
- on later.
-- Up size of print buffer from 2000 to 5000.
-- My production run failed again. I'm beginnig to suspect
- hardware problems because running by hand or under the
- debugger always works -- we will see.
-- Added Update Volume VolFiles to reset correct tape files
- a bit dangerous.
-- Use the mysql_escape_string() rather than internal version.
-14Jan03
-- Cleanup handling of JobStatus by creating a subroutine.
-- Fix a number of minor things with JobStatus.
-- Print FD and SD JobStatus on backup report.
-- Add JCR to findlib -- so now FD stops normally when cancelled.
-- My production Director segment faulted during the second Job.
- I haven't been able to track it down. After rebuilding, all
- jobs finished correctly.
-- In investigating the duplicated Paths, I found that there
- were 10,552 of them -- only Path records. After checking the
- code, I do not see the reason, but I've enhanced the code to
- print the full path name.
-- I made a few improvements to tools/dbcheck. Mostly it provides
- a bit more feedback with verbose mode on when eliminating
- duplicate filenames or paths.
-13Jan03
-- During four simultaneous backups, the File daemon started
- detecting buffer corruptions. It turns out to be due to the
- fact that the smartall.c routines were not thread safe. They
- are now.
-- Based on input from James MacLean and team, I eliminated a number
- of places where printf could be recursively called by using "%s".
-- It turns out that because of an error of my understanding of
- mysql_escape_string(), the last argument was taken as the length
- of the string to be escaped rather than the maximum length. I've
- now corrected all my code -- Thanks James.
-12Jan03
-- George Motter reported problems with UseDurations, and it seems
- that there were a number of inconsistencies and problems with
- FirstWritten and LastWritten. Hopefully for the most part they
- are now corrected. Also fixed LabelDate if done through Console.
-- Try to chase down reasons why there would be buffer overruns.
- Added P & V around referencing last_fname for status.
- Rewrote find_one.c with MEMPOOL, but not yet tested enough
- to commit.
-10Jan03
-- Give extra margin to converting filenames from Unix to Windows
- in attribs.c of findlib -- dumb cygwin API doesn't provide for
- a length.
-- Added file:line traceback to size_of_pool_memory, check... and
- realloc in an attept to get closer to the memory overrun reported
- by James MacLean.
-09Jan03
-- Made yet another fix to quoted string -- paths! Thanks to
- Scott Medlock for reporting this.
-- Made | and < work.
-- Implemented FIFO reading/writing. To do so, simply explicitly mention
- the fifo file (named pipe) in the Include AND add the new option
- readfifo=yes
-08Jan03
-- Started implementing | and < on Include names.
-- Changed source to . in cats directory as requested by Andrew Kokarev.

- being quoted before going into the database. Many thanks to
- James MacLean for reporting this.
