+================== Warning !!!!!! ==========================
+As of Version 2.4.0, the Win32 FD should not descend into
+any reparse point directory or reparse mount points unless the
+specified directory is explicitly mentioned at the top level of
+FileSet (as with Unix). A file that is linked to another file will
+be backed up, much like Unix hardlinked files. If you want
+reparse directories backed up, you must explicitly include them
+in your FileSet.
+==============================================================
+
+Release 2.4.3
+ This is a bug fix to version 2.4.2. All daemons are compatible
+ with other 2.4.x versions.
+
+Bugs Fixed:
+ 1159, 1162. 1149, 1128, 1143, 1140, 1129
+
+Change Summary:
+- Apply 2.4.2-cancel-non-running-jobs.patch to be able to cancel
+ a non created job faster.
+- This should correct bug #1159 where Migration does not properly
+ respect the Migration Low Bytes directive.
+- Fix typo in configure.in that breaks --with-db-password option
+- This code should fix the race condition that leads to a Director
+ crash at job end time when the job list is updated. This was reported
+ in bug #1162.
+- Remove all double quotes from SQLite creating script and
+ replace by single quotes as suggested by John Huttley.
+- Fix SQL case problem that may cause the failure of DiskToCatalog
+ in bug #1149.
+- Copy missing storage name into edit buffer. As far as I can tell
+ this never caused a bug.
+- Remove catalog dependency for bcopy
+- Modify catalog scripts to have an easier packaging integration,
+ using default variables.
+ Make difference between SQLite3 and SQLite in db_get_type()
+- Attempt to fix bug #1128 InChanger flag cleared during Migration
+ job when reading from one autochanger and writing to another.
+- Add more information to SD acquire.c INFO messages.
+- Fix NULL Volume name error when reading and the drive must
+ be switched.
+- Fix a Verify InitCatalog problem where in certain cases
+ a garbage filename may be entered in the verification database. This
+ fixes bug #1143.
+- Add space after version before date in bat about dialog.
+- Fix seg fault in Dir during estimate command with no level value
+ given. This fixes bug #1140.
+- Add message to migration job when the target job is already migrated.
+ This closes bug #1129.
+
+
+==============================================================
+
+Release 2.4.2
+ This is an important bug fix release since version 2.4.1.
+
+Bugs Fixed:
+ 1034, 1125, 1118, 1124, 1107, 1129, 1126
+
+Change Summary:
+26Jul08
+- When a migration job actually runs, re-check the Job record
+ and skip if the job is already migrated. This should
+ significantly reduce the problems with bug #1129.
+- Break the do_swapping into do_unload, do_swapping, and
+ do_load. It is much more logical that way.
+- Implement a set_dcr_from_vol subroutine in acquire.c for
+ reading volumes. This allows the dcr to be refreshed after being
+ zapped when the wrong volume is mounted. This should fix bug #1126 -
+- During multiple tape restore, bacula
+ does not ask for physical tape change, but rereads same tape
+- Apply patch submitted for bug #1107 with a small modification.
+ This fixes a bug where bcopy copied too many records.
+- Make some tweaks to bsmtp based on patch submitted in bug #1124.
+ This fixes bug #1124.
+- Make the default bat restore Pool be Any. This fixes bug #1118.
+- Fix bug #1125 which reports a SD crash at the end of a tape
+ during restore. It was a debug statement that should not be
+ in a release.
+- Fix #1034 by setting big timeout on mysql connections
+- Do partial integration of the Win32 bat build created by Eric.
+- Ensure that SD tried to mount a volume not in an autochanger
+ at least once before asking for operator intervention.
+- Fix a pthreads bug in the Win32 pthreads emulation code affects only
+ version 2.5.x and above.
+
+
+=================================================================
+
+Release 2.4.1:
+
+Bugs Fixed:
+ 1103, 1100, 1105, 1094, 1109, 1106, 1101, 1102, 1112
+ 1117, 1116, 1097.
+
+Change summary:
+- Clear in-use bit on vol when unused while swapping.
+- Remove sleep at end of ./bacula
+- Clear hash packet for hardlinked files correctly. This corrects
+ a long standing bug where hardlinked files selected individually
+ would occasionally not be restored.
+- Apply Eric's patch to ensure that autoprune does not return
+ a Volume not in the autochanger unless requested to do so.
+- Correct bat restore display of multiple drives. This fixes
+ bug #1117.
+- Do find_a_volume() each time an unload is done. This
+ fixes the failure of maxvol2-test.
+- Use Qmsg() in job.c watchdog callback.
+- Release main control rwlock if ABORTing.
+- Make watchdog connect timeout queue messages rather than sending
+ directly to avoid lock conflicts with the real thread.
+- Remove const char that causes problems with Python, which has
+ older 'incorrect' headers.
+- Add const char in dbd.c to avoid compiler warnings.
+- Fix mtx-changer to detect both versions of Ubuntu (Debian)
+ mt. This fixes bug #1116.
+- Fix failure of 2drive-concurrent-test. Always read label;
+ clear_unload() only after drive is defined in acquire_for_read().
+- Generally clean up the manual tape loading code. The main
+ conceptial change is that when a volume is marked to be unloaded,
+ its volume name is retained, and it is only marked as unloaded
+ when either the autoloader says it is unloaded or another tape
+ is read on that drive.
+- Fix a recycling problem with two autochangers reported in bug
+ #1106. This may also (unlikely) fix a second recycling bug as
+ reported in #1103.
+- Fix a SD lock volumes deadlock problem reported in bug #1100.
+- Fix format problem in bscan output reported in bug #1105.
+- Copy more data when restarting a job so that run
+ overrides are kept. This should fix bug #1094.
+- Backport updates to jobq.c where possible.
+- Fix bug where SD did not ask operator if the device could not
+ be opened. Reported by Eric.
+- Add dbuser to DIR conf file (replaces user).
+- Add --with-db-password to ./configure
+- Fix regress to handle db_password.
+- Fix a couple of pedantic compiler warnings.
+- Fix bug when starting a restore on a storage that doesn't
+ have the requested MediaType.
+- More work on word alignments -- eliminate all ints from
+ the configuration routines.
+- Fix bug reported by Scott Barninger where the bacula script
+ refers to scripts in the wrong directory. Needed to meet the
+ requirements of recent FHS location changes.
+- Fix word alignment problem on non-Intel 64 bit machines
+ such as Solaris. This should fix bug #1097 -- bus error in SD.
+- Add missing win32/patches/wxWidgets.patch to 2.4 repository.
+
+=====================
+
+Release 2.4.0
+This Director and Storage daemon must be upgraded at the same time,
+but they should be compatible with all 2.0.x File daemons, unless you
+use some of the new features that affect the FD. In other words, you should
+not have to upgrade all your File daemons when you upgrade. There is
+no database upgrade needed from version 2.0.x to 2.2.0 nor from version
+2.2.x to version 2.4.0
+
+This release consists mainly of a number of bug fixes since 2.2.x
+but most importantly, a rewrite of significant portions of the
+Storage daemon reservation and autochanger code. This rewritten
+code is simpler, more stable, and works much better, particularly
+with multiple drive autochangers than the prior code did. That
+said, there are still a number of issues to be resolved. Note,
+the new code has not been tested in manual volume mount situations.
+
+Bugs fixed:
+ 1095, 1086, 1091, 1070, 1041, 1083, 1078, 1066, 1068, 1038
+ 1062, 1065, 1046, 1047, 1031
+
+New features:
+- You can now build bat without the QWT libraries. Use
+ --without-qwt as a ./configure option.
+
+Release Version 2.4.0
+- Update version to 2.4.0 to reflect the magnitude of the SD changes.
+- Make sure to clear JS_WaitMedia when operator mounts a Volume.
+ This fixes bug #1095.
+- Add create_postgresql_database.sql to Win32 installer. Should
+ fix problem reported by Juilio Monteiro.
+- Get correct slot when auto unloading a device. This fixes bug
+ #1086.
+- Fix possible seg fault if SQL error.
+- Fix renaming a Volume, which used the wrong Volume name.
+- If operator has rewind tape, print warning, release tape and
+ try once more. If tape is positioned somewhere, something went
+ wrong, so mark the tape in error and try once more. Previously
+ this error was fatal, now it produces an error message.
+- Ensure correct volume name displayed during restore
+- Fix a few more Coverity reported problems.
+- Fix #1091 about bad output in estimate command.
+- Modify autochanger locking to attempt to avoid race
+ conditions.
+- Make sure device not busy before doing label command.
+- Display open() errors except when polling. Previously too
+ many were suppressed. This should fix bug #1070.
+- Fix Win32 reparse points. Bacula will not recurse into any
+ reparse point directory, including mount points, unless the
+ directory is explicitly mentioned at the top level (same as
+ with Unix). A file that is linked to another file will be
+ backed up -- much as Unix does for hardlinked files.
+ This fixes bug #1041.
+- Remove StorageId test when pruning and recycling (Eric's changes).
+- Fix buffer overruns detected by Coverity.
+- Implement --without-qwt
+- Fix layout of restore tree dialog
+- Add configure bat QWT libraries, so that bat can be built
+ with or without the QWT libaries.
+- Implement regression that explicitly tests swapping a Volume
+ from one drive to another.
+- Enhance disk-changer to detect most error conditions.
+- Fix SD code so that it properly swaps a Volume between drives.
+ This fixes bug #1083.
+- Prevent a Volume that is being swapped from being freed from
+ the volume list. This will most likely fix, at least partially,
+ bug #1083.
+- Fix strippath so that it does not get a buffer overrun and crash FD.
+ This fixes bug #1078.
+- Make inability to change owner/group when creating a dir only a
+ warning rather than an error.
+- Fix SQL query in migration code
+- Fix bat seg fault at termination.
+- Add Bacula generated version to bat about box.
+- Backport development stream SD reservation system changes.
+- When wrong volume is mounted during read, unload_autochanger.
+- Stop searching for Volumes in SD askdir if DIR returns the
+ same volume name twice in a row.
+- Rework class structures for VOLRES, DCR, and DEVICE to make
+ the method names a bit more logical, and for more logically
+ handling the responsibilities.
+- Remove redundant code in terminating the scheduler that just
+ causes a seg fault in many cases.
+- Improve algorithm for detecting pre-reserved volume and
+ swapping volumes.
+- Prevent volume from being released while being swapped.
+- Refactor parts of stored/mount.c
+- Add sanity checks for VolWriteTime and VolReadTime
+- Take care of bad clock changes while computing VolWriteTime
+ and VolReadTime. This should fix or limit #1066
+- Correct error string numbers in dird/catreq.c
+- Restructure reserving, acquiring, and mounting volumes. Calls to
+ autochanger are deferred for mount.c -- simplifes the code.
+- Do not prune any running job. It just fails the job.
+- Lock the volumes when changing dev->reserved_device and marking
+ the volume unused otherwise the device can get reserved by
+ another job before the volume is released, thus blocking it.
+- Correct some SD catalog request error messages.
+- Turn off code in read_record that causes a seg fault in the SD
+ when reading past an EOS_LABEL.
+- Turn off unloading the autochanger in reserve.c as it just
+ causes problems.
+- Lock volumes when unreserving a device.
+- Do not mark volume unused when recycling.
+- Fix bug #1068 fixes a SD crash when using Virtual autochanger.
+- Generate correct JobMedia records during spooling/despooling when
+ running concurrent jobs. Thanks to Tom Ivar Helbekkmo
+ <tih@hamartun.priv.no> for excellent analysis and testing.
+- *Massive* commit of all fixes and back ports to create 2.2.9
+ Mostly SD reservations enhancements.
+- Fix Win32 FD backup/restore memory leak due to improper termination
+ of BackupRead/Write. This fixes bug# 1038.
+- Fixes a StorageId problem with volumes after migration.
+- Implements autostart scripts for Debian
+- Fix mtx-changer.in for broken Debian mt program.
+- Apply doc fix from bug #1062.
+- Resolve crash and improper restore wx-console Win32 restore
+ GUI. Fixes bug #1065.
+- Update Win32 wxWidgets to latest version.
+- Attempt to do correct handling of Win32 mount points. Should
+ fix bug #1046.
+- Add const to AIX prototype for initgroups()
+- Fix to the JobMedia patch, which introduced a new problem.
+- Fix creating first JobMedia record during Migration to include
+ proper index. This caused slow restores of migrated jobs.
+- Fix bug #1047, do not strip paths on symbolic links.
+- Set catalog backup database and user name from values specified on
+ the ./configure line.
+- Apply patch to correct bug #1031, about wrong pool source information
+ in job report.
+
+
+=========================================================================
+
+Version 2.2.8 is a bug fix to version 2.2.7:
+- It fixes bugs: 1036, 1033(doc), 1028, 1040, 1045(doc), 1030,
+ 1042(partially), and possibly bugs 1018 and 1032.
+ Bugs 1018 and 1032 involve problems with multiple-drive autochangers,
+ and are difficult to reproduce.
+ See the ChangeLog for more details.
+
+Version 2.2.7 has several new features and several important bug fixes
+ since version 2.2.6:
+- It fixes bugs: 1009, 1022, 1024, 1019, 1012, 1021, 1020
+ 1007, 1008. For more details, please see the technotes-2.1 file.
+- Fixed a seg fault reported by Frank Sweetser that depended on
+ exact path lengths, but the problem was in bsnprintf.c
+- Double quoting include filenames (@xxx) in Bacula conf files is now
+ possible, thanks to a patch by Michael Stapelberg.
+- You can pipe input to include filenames (@|prog) by using a vertical
+ bar, thanks to the above patch.
+- A daylight savings time bug in the Win32 bsmpt was fixed by a patch from
+ Nerijus Baliunas.
+- Marc Cousins submitted a patch that permits building the PostgreSQL
+ driver with version 8.3.
+- The configure option --archivedir has been changed to --with-archivedir
+
+Version 2.2.6 is a minor bug fix release to version 2.2.5
+- It fixes bugs: #1003, 942, 982, 990(response only), 991,
+ 993, 986, 976.
+- Fix bat crash wen it cannot connect to Director.
+- Fix joblist failure bug in bat.
+
+Version 2.2.5 is a major bug fix release to version 2.2.4
+- It fixes the following bugs: #961, 962, 963, 969, 968, 960,
+ 964, (possibly 935 and 903), 953, 953, 967, 966, 965, 954,
+ 957, 908, 958, and 955.
+- It also improves listing performance problems in bat pointed
+ out by Chris Howells.
+
+Version 2.2.4 is a minor bug fix release to version 2.2.3
+- Possible fix for authorization problems bug #953.
+- Possible fix for bug #908.
+- Add waits to multiple exit detection code to try to force pid
+ file to always be deleted.
+- Restore good dev.tar.gz to rescue set appropriate binary property.
+ This fixes bug #950.
+- Fix seg fault in error exit of acquire_for_read after unsuccessfully
+ trying to switch drives by checking for blocking before unblocking.
+ Fixes bug #906.
+- Cancel storage daemon in all cases where FD reports error. This
+ should fix virtually all cases of bug #920 and will ensure that Devices
+ are released as soon as possible.
+- Fix error message that was clobbered when Dir tells SD it does not
+ have write permission on Volume. This should fix a minor point
+ in bug #942, but not the main problem.
+- Fix migration code to get correct Volume name with multiple volumes
+ by skipping |. Fixes bug #936.
+- Implement patch supplied by Landon to fix bug #944 where using
+ TLS with bconsole uses 99+% of the CPU.
+- Fix bug #946 about 'bacula-dir -t' which doesn't works
+ as expected.
+- Using 'm' in bconsole will show messages as in prior versions
+ and not memory usage.

+ program.
+
+Version 2.2.3 is a critical bug fix release to version 2.2.2
+- Fix bug #935, and possibly also bug #903 where files were not
+ restored. MediaId was not properly set in JobMedia record after
+ a Volume change. This bug is known to affect all versions from
+ 2.0.0 on, and probably versions prior to that. A detailed analysis
+ of the bug can be found at:
+
+ http://www.bacula.org/downloads/bug-395.txt
+
+- Add ./configure search in qwt-qt4 for qwt package
+- Apply Martin Simmons patch that should turn off the new API usage
+ when batch insert is turned off allowing building on older
+ PostgreSQLs.
+- Note, you need GTK >= 2.10 to be able to link the Tray Monitor
+ program.
+
+Version 2.2.2 is a minor bug fix release to 2.2.1
+- Detect if new PosgreSQL batch insert API is present.
+- Correct incorrect mempool call causing Director crash on older
+ systems that do not have va_copy().
+- Update spec files for 2.2.1 release
+
+Version 2.2.1 is mainly a minor bug fix release to version 2.2.0,
+ the main changes since 2.2.0 are:
+- Fixed bugs #921, 930, and 923.
+- More portable timezone offset in bsmtp thaks to Attila Fülöp.
+- Fix several bat issues.
+- Use GTK+ calls instead of egg files in tray-monitor.
+- Win32 service routines rewritten
+- Updated projects file
+Please see the ChangeLog for details.
+
+Notes on 2.2.0 release follow:
+
+Areas requiring caution or testing:
+- You must have the thread safe version of MySQL client libraries loaded
+ to build with MySQL enabled.
+- Volumes are pruned only when absolutely necessary -- this may cause
+ your database to grow compared to prior Bacula versions.
+- Solaris door and even port files are no longer restored (equivalent
+ to what we do with sockets).
+- SQLite is no longer supported for Solaris -- it fails too often with
+ bus errors. SQLite3 should work on Solaris.
+- The default setting for SQLite3 is now 'PRAGMA synchronous=OFF'.
+ This makes it run 30 times faster, but increases the possiblity
+ of a corrupted database if your server shuts down unexpectedly.
+ The default behavior can be changed in src/version.h
+- Restore on Win32, and in particular on Vista is untested. Please
+ test before relying on it. It should backup and restore reparse
+ points.
+- Win32 servers are untested, and very likely not to work.
+
+The major new features are:
+- Much faster insertion of attributes (somewhere around 10 times),
+ many thanks to Eric Bollengier and Marc Cousin.
+- First release of bat (Bacula Administration Tool). Note to build
+ bat you must explicitly enable it on the ./configure line, you
+ must have the Qt4 version 4.2 or later libraries loaded, the qwt
+ (Qt Graphics) package loaded, and qmake and the other Qt4 tools
+ must be available. Most of the implementation was done by Dirk Bartley.
