-Version 5.2.1
-
-The 5.2.1 version is a major release since the last version 5.0.3.
-It includes well over 299,387 lines of changes made by 20 contributors,
-lots of bug fixes (see below), 1,851 software commits,and a
-number of important new features:
-
-Version 5.2.0 was short lived, because Marco (thanks) found
-a number of last minute bugs. So the first official release of 5.2
-is 5.2.1.
-
-Compatibility:
---------------
- As always, both the Director and Storage daemon must be upgraded at
- the same time.
-
- Older 5.0.x and 3.0.x File Daemons are compatible with the 5.2.1
- Director and Storage daemons. There should be no need to upgrade older File
- Daemons.
-
-5.2.1 New Features:
------------------
-- LZO Compression
-- New Tray Monitor
-- Purge Migration Job
-- Changes in Bvfs (Bacula Virtual FileSystem)
-- Changes in the Pruning Algorithm
-- Ability to Verify any specified Job
-- Additions to RunScript variables
-- Additions to the Plugin API
-- ACL enhancements
-- XATTR enhancements
-- Class Based Database Backend Drivers
-- Hash List Enhancements
-
-Some of the above are described below; all the above are
-described in more detail in the New Features chapter of the
-manual.

-
-Note on bug 1612 where Bacula does not save a checksum for hard links during
-full backup, but expects one during accurate differential backups. You need
-a Full backup with the 5.2.x code to have these checksums in the Catalog.
-Doing Incr/Diff over a 5.0.x Full backup will still display lot of errors.
-
-
-
-================== Warning !!!!!! ==========================
-
- The new pruning algorithm will not allow pruning of jobs that are essential to
- restore since the last Full backup. This is, of course, correct and desirable,
- but it is different from older Bacula versions that could inappropriately
- prune jobs. Pruning of volumes is not affected.
-
-Building Bat:
--------------
-To build Bat, you need Qt4 version 4.6.2. If you build with any other
-version it is likely not to work. If you do not have version 4.6.2, on
-your system, you can download the Bacula depkgs_qt version 16Dec10.
-
-Packaging the SQL backend:
---------------------------
-The main Bacula Director code is independent of the SQL backend
-in this version. This means that the Bacula Director can be packaged
-by itself, then each of the different SQL backends supported can
-be packaged separately. It is possible to build all the DB backends
-at the same time.
-
-- configure can be run with multiple database configure options.
- --with-sqlite3
- --with-mysql
- --with-postgresql
-
-Order of testing for database is
-- postgresql
-- mysql
-- sqlite3
-
-Each configured backend generates a libbaccats-<backend_name>-<version>.so
-A dummy catalog library is created named libbaccats-version.so
-
-At configure time the first detected backend is used as the so called default
-backend and at install time the dummy libbaccats-<version>.so is replaced with
-the default backend type.
-
-If you configure all three backends you get three backend libraries and the
-postgresql gets installed as the default. When you want to switch the default
-you can copy one of the three backend libraries over the
-libbaccats-<version>.so e.g.
-
-cp libbaccats-postgresql-<version>.so libbaccats-<version>.so
-
-And update the default backend in the following files:
-
-create_bacula_database
-drop_bacula_database
-drop_bacula_tables
-grant_bacula_privileges
-make_bacula_tables
-make_catalog_backup
-update_bacula_tables
-
-New Catalog format in version 5.2.0 and greater

-This release of Bacula uses a new catalog format. We provide a set of
-scripts that permit to convert a 5.0.x (version 12) catalog to 5.2.1 (version
-14). The Bacula project rpm spec files have been modified to
-detect the database change and do the upgrade for you. We strongly
-recommend that you save a copy of your existing database before upgrading
-using rpms.
-
-The simplest way to upgrade the database assuming you are building from
-source (i.e. manually):
-1. Stop any current version of Bacula from running.
-2. Save a copy of your existing database.
-3. Configure, build, and install the 5.2.1 version of Bacula
- Note the new ./configure options in the manuals see the link
- at the bottom of this file.
-4. cd <your-scripts-installation-directory>
-5. ./update_bacula_tables
-6. If you have multiple catalogs, edit the update_bacula_tables
- script and put the name of another database, and then
- execute the script again. Repeat this until all Bacula
- catalogs have been updated.
-7. Start the new Bacula. If everything worked, it should
- not print any error messages.
-
-If you start from scratch, you don't need to run the update_bacula_tables
-script because the create_bacula_tables script automatically creates the new
-table format. However, if you are using a version of Bacula older than 5.0.0
-(e.g. 3.0.3) then you need to run the update_bacula_tables script that will
-be found in the <bacula>/src/cats directory after you run the ./configure
-command. As mentioned above, before running this script, please backup your
-catalog database, and when you do running it, be sure shutdown Bacula and be
-aware that running the script can take some time depending on your database
-size.

-================================================================
-
-Changes:
-
-Speed and Memory Usage Enhancements:
-- Implement LZO compression algorithm (need lzo2 headers to activate this option)
-- New Pruning algoritm -- safer and faster
-- Use of PostgreSQL cursor when doing large queries, should reduce the
- memory usage during restore and accurate backups.
-- limit command in some list commands
-- Bacula Virtual File System for fast catalog access
-- Faster crc32 algorithm
-
-Security Enhancements:
-- Additional security against injection of illegal characters
-- Fix possible fnmatch problem
-
-Features Enhancements:
-- Improvements in ACL and xattr handling on additional platforms:
- AIX, Darwind, FreeBSD, HPUX, IRIX, Solaris, Tru64
-- Tray monitor for Windows
-- New SQL backend and ./configure that permits building multiple catalog
- backends in one build, and has the main Bacula core code totally independent
- of the SQL backend, which should simplify packaging (only the
- libbacsql.so/dll needs to be changed to switch from one database backend
- to another (e.g. MySQL to PostgreSQL).
-- Indent lsmark during restore
-- Disable batch insert config item
-- Director selection option in bconsole
-- restorejob command in bconsole
-- Many additional features for bat such as "brestore" panel
-- The old bat version browser has been turned off since it does not
- work correctly and the brestore panel provides the same functionality
-- Improved hash table for hard links
-- Additional script variable editing such as %b (JobBytes), %F (JobFiles)
- and %h (Client Address)
-
-Other Enhancements:
-- Includes better handling for Windows repares points, mount points, and
- junction points.
-- New database format
-- Many new plugin API features
-- Improved memory handling for restores
-- Significant stability enhancements to bat
-- xattr/ACL restore failure are now printed as Warning
-- A few path name length limits in Windows have been removed.
-
-
-===========================================================================
-
-The 5.0.3 version is significant bug fix update to version 5.0.2.
-It includes new code and some new features.
-There is no database change since prior versions of 5.0.
-
-Note, if you are running 5.0.0, read the 5.0.1 and 5.0.2 release notes below in
- the 5.0.1 release section.
- Important!!!
-
-Compatibility:
---------------
- As always, both the Director and Storage daemon must be upgraded at
- the same time.
-
- Older 5.0.x and 3.0.x File Daemons are compatible with the 5.0.3
- Director and Storage daemons. There should be no need to upgrade older File
- Daemons.
-
-Changes and New Features:
-- If a VSS (Windows) snapshot fails, the whole Job is failed, previously
- it printed a warning message and continued.
-- New editing codes %b = Job Bytes and %f = Job Files for runscripts
-- Any non-Bacula project plugins (i.e. third party plugins)
- must be upgraded to specify AGPLv3 in place of the GPLv2 used previously
- for the PLUGIN_LICENSE.
-- The bat Media page text columns can be sorted by clicking on the column.
-- If possible, the SD will automatically update the catalog Volume size if
- it does not match the Volume size. The mismatch between the Volume sizes
- typically occurs when the FD has a comm line drop or the FD crashes.

-=============================================================================
-
-
-============= Release 5.0.1 ========================
-
-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOTE FOR 5.0.0 USERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-The Allow Duplicate Jobs directive has been significantly
-reworked, and the default value has changed. See below.
-
-Truncate On Purge has been totally rewritten. See the new
-features section of the manual.
-
-When Volume Poll Interval is set in the SD DEVICE configuration,
-(default 5 mins), after a certain number of polling tries (approx
-10) polling will stop and the operator will be asked to
-resolve the problem. Previously there was no limit, and an
-error message could be produced at each poll attempt.
-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
-Changes since 5.0.0
--------------------
-- We believe that we have resolved most of the problems
- concerning canceled or failed jobs being "stuck" in the
- Director. There is one outstanding problem in the SD when
- canceling jobs that we will fix in the next major release.
- If you see jobs that seem to be stuck, in general issuing
- a cancel command in bconsole should now make them go away.
-
-Directives:
-- The default for "Allow Duplicate Jobs" has been changed from
- no to yes. If you use this directive, please check your
- conf file, and note the next two items !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-- AllowHigherDuplicates disabled. It did not work as documented
- and was confusing.
-- New directive "CancelLowerLevelDuplicates" See New Features
- section in the manual.
-- Truncate on Purge rewritten. See New Features section in the manual.

-
-For Packagers:
-1. The default query.sql file is now, except for some comments, empty.
-The old file, which we no longer support (it is impossible or difficult to
-make it work on every backend, and the queries are mostly contributed) can
-be found in <bacula-source>/examples/sample-query.sql. The sample file is
-not installed by the Makefiles
-
-2. When you install the mtx-changer script, you must also install
-mtx-changer.conf if it does not exist. This new file (mtx-changer.conf) is
-required for mtx-changer to work, but it is a user configurable file, so on
-any update, any existing file should not be overwritten.
-
-3. Bat should be built on every platform that is capabable of running Qt.
-However, the Qt code is changing rather quickly and is not always
-compatible from version to version. We have built and verified bat on Qt
-4.3.4. We strongly recommend that you do not build and distribute bat with
-any other version of Qt unless you personally test it. To build against Qt
-4.3.4, download the depkgs-qt package from the Bacula Source Forge download
-location, read the README file and follow the instructions.
-
-If you are building for Bacula version 5.0.0, please ensure that you do not
-have qmake-qt4 loaded on your system. If you do, either remove it or
-rename it before trying to build bat. If you do not, bat will probably be
-built using the shared objects on your system. For Bacula 5.0.1 and later,
-this problem (bug) does not exist.
-
-depkgs-qt does not install Qt on your system, nor does it interfere with
-you having any other version of Qt installed on your system. Once you
-build bat with depkgs-qt, it should *not* use the Qt shared objects, but
-rather they will be linked into the program. After fully installing bat
-(make install), you can run "ldd bat" to see what shared objects it will
-use. If any Qt shared objects are referenced, something has gone wrong.
-
-4. Unless absolutely necessary, we recommend that you do not define any
-special library environment variables that apply to the ./configure -- for
-example: LIBDIR=/... ./configure <your-options> is strongly discouraged.
-Doing so, could potentially cause Bacula to be linked against the wrong
-shared objects.
-
-5. The Bacula project strongly recommends that you install Bacula into a
-single directory, with a few minor exceptions such as the MySQL or
-PostgreSQL databases. Preferrably this should be /opt/bacula. The full
-recommendation is:
-
-#!/bin/sh
-# Recommended configure script for Bacula
-prefix=/opt/bacula
-email=xxx@yyy.zz
-CFLAGS="-g -O2 -Wall" \
- ./configure \
- --sbindir=${prefix}/bin \
- --sysconfdir=${prefix}/etc \
- --docdir=${prefix}/html \
- --htmldir=${prefix}/html \
- --with-working-dir=${prefix}/working \
- --with-pid-dir=${prefix}/working \
- --with-subsys-dir=${prefix}/working \
- --with-scriptdir=${prefix}/scripts \
- --with-plugindir=${prefix}/plugins \
- --libdir=${prefix}/lib \
- --enable-smartalloc \
- --enable-tray-monitor \
- --enable-bat \
- --with-mysql \
- --with-dump-email=${email} \
- --with-job-email=${email} \
- --with-smtp-host=localhost \
- --with-baseport=9101
-
-Obviously, the email, and some of the minor options (mysql, postgresql,
-...) can be changed to suit your distribution, but the directory names
-defined above are strongly recommended, and over time the default values in
-the bacula-dir.conf and bacula-sd.conf will reflect these choices.
-
-If you have any questions about this or would like a detailed document
-describing our recommendations including packaging requirements, please
-send an email to the bacula-devel list.
-
-6. Starting with Bacula version 3.0.0 up to Bacula 5.0.0, the shared
-libraries that Bacula uses by default are named xxx-1.0.0. Starting with
-Bacula 5.0.1, we are going to name the libraries using the Bacula version.
-So in Bacula 5.0.1, the libraries will be named xxx-5.0.1. With future
-versions, the last digit may or may not change when we distribute patch
-updates (i.e. the last digit of the version changes). This will depend on
-whether or not we have changed something in the library. Hopefully this
-new procedure will resolve some of the incompatibility problems between
-different versions of the shared objects.
-
-7. The default build option for bconsole is conio (my own little console
-routines). I did this because some years ago, readline was very difficult
-to maintain -- it and where it was found seemed to change on every release.
-This generated at the time a number of support problems. It seems to me
-that since then there have been very few problems with readline. As a
-consequence, I have no problem if you want to make bconsole with readline
-enabled. It will actually give some very nice new bconsole command
-completion functionality that Eric has written. Bottom line: feel free to
-use readline or not as you please.

-Release Notes for Bacula 5.0.0
-
-Release Numbering:
------------------------------------------------------------
-You might be wondering why this release jumps from 3.0.x to
-5.0.0 thus skipping version 4.0.0. We have done this for
-several reasons: first, we wanted a way of distinguishing
-the numbering system for the Bacula System Enterprise version
-and the Bacula Project version. So, to do so, we have decided
-that the first number of the Bacula Project version will always
-be odd, and the first number of the Enterprise version will always
-be even. Thus the Bacula Project now moves from 3.0.x to 5.0.x.
-In addition, we want to keep the Bacula Project version larger
-than the Enterprise version to indicate that the Bacula Project
-version is more advanced or has more features than the
-Enterprise version. For memory, the current Enterprise version
-is 2.6.1, and the next release (in a few months -- before June 2010)
-will be version 4.0.0.
-
-Warning:
---------------------------------------------------------------
-Please note the three Warnings below before doing any install or
-upgrade.
-
-
-Changes since 3.0.3a (the last Bacula Project release):
--------------------------------------------------------
-
-Bug fixes:
-1337 1351 1352 1354 1357 1361 1367 1369 1370 1373

- - Many ACL improvements
- - Level added to FD status Job entry
- - Allow turning on/off Block Checksum per device
- - Set Device Poll interval to 5 minutes -- previously did not poll
- - Implement lock manager with bad order protection
-
-Compatibility:
-As always, both the Director and Storage daemon must be upgraded at
-the same time, and on any given machine, you must run only one version
-of Bacula. This means that on the Director and Storage daemon machines,
-you *must* upgrade your File daemon as well.
-
-Older 3.0.x and possibly 2.4.x File Daemons are compatible with the 5.0.0
-Director and Storage daemons. There should be no need to upgrade older File
-Daemons immediately. However, we recommend that you do so as soon
-as is reasonable for your situation.
-
-================== Warning !!!!!! ==========================
-
-New Catalog format in version 5.0.0 (3.1.9 or later)
------------------------------------------------------
-
-This release of Bacula uses a new catalog format. We provide a set of
-scripts that permit to convert a 3.0.x (version 11) catalog to 5.0.0 (version
-12). The Bacula project rpms distributed on Source Forge will automatically
-detect the database change and do the upgrade for you. We strongly
-recommend that you save a copy of your existing database before upgrading
-using rpms.
-
-The simplest way to upgrade the database assuming you are building from
-source:
-1. Stop any current version of Bacula from running.
-2. Save a copy of your existing database.
-3. Configure, build, and install the 5.0.0 version of Bacula
- Note the new ./configure options in the manuals see the link
- at the bottom of this file.
-4. cd <your-scripts-installation-directory>
-5. ./update_bacula_tables
-6. If you have multiple catalogs, edit the update_bacula_tables
- script and put the name of another database, and then
- execute the script again. Repeat this until all Bacula
- catalogs have been updated.
-7. Start the new Bacula. If everything worked, it should
- not print any error messages.
-
-If you start from scratch, you don't need to run the update_bacula_tables
-script because the create_bacula_tables script automatically creates the new
-table format. However, if you are using a version of Bacula older than 3.1.9
-(e.g. 3.0.3) then you need to run the update_bacula_tables script that will
-be found in the <bacula>/src/cats directory after you run the ./configure
-command. As mentioned above, before running this script, please backup your
-catalog database, and when you do running it, be sure shutdown Bacula and be
-aware that running the script can take some time depending on your database
-size.
-================================================================
-
-
-================== Warning !!!!!! ==========================
-If you upgrade a previous Win32 client installation, you must
-first stop the File daemon, then uninstall it before attempting
-the upgrade. If you do not do so, the upgrade will probably
-fail and you will need to manually find and run the
-Uninstall.exe file, before you can upgrade to the new version.
-This is because the file locations are different. If you want
-to save your previous bacula-fd.conf file, please do so before
-uninstalling it.
-================================================================
-
-================== Warning !!!!!! ==========================
-Due to permissions problems on Windows Vista and later systems,
-we no longer require SYSTEM or Administrator permissions to
-access the binaries and configuation files. If you wish
-to restrict access to these files, please see the New Features
-section of the manual for how to set access control lists.
-================================================================
-
-Note, the Win32 Installer no longer installs the Bacula Servers
-(Director and Storage daemon). See the New Features section of
-the manual for more details.
-
-============ Documentation improvements needed ==================
-
-Note!!!!! The 5.0.0+ documentation has a number of known problems:
-
-1. We have reduced the number of manuals, which has fixed many
- of the broken links found in the old 3.0.x version, but there
- are still some that need fixing.
-
-2. Integration of the 3.0.x features into the main manuals has
- not yet been done.
-
-The documentation will not be completed in the near future due to lack
-manpower. If you are unhappy with this situation as we are, we suggest
-you help by submitting patches to the documentation. Thanks.
-=====
-
-
-This release includes large number of new features and changes.
-It should be more or less compatible with previous xx.conf files
-and File daemons providing that you are not using any of the new
-features.
-
-Please see the New Features chapter of the new manual, which documents
-some but not all the new features (we are still working on it):
-
-http://www.bacula.org/5.0.x-manuals/en/main/main/New_Features_in_5_0_1.html

-The ChangeLog has more details.
