+ Technical notes on version 1.39
-2003-10-15 Version 1.32b 14Oct03 Release
-14Oct03
-- Modify configure so that if threaded MySQL client library
- is not present, Bacula will link with the non-threaded
- version.
-- Updates to the Web pages and to the manual.
-- Remove trademark symbol from title. Phil pointed out that it
- does not display correctly in a title.
-11Oct03
-- Implement restore by file before date.
-- Change restore arguments a bit so that you can feed it
- multiple jobid= specifications or multiple file= specifications.
-- Pass restore with run option on to run_cmd.
-- Make run-cmd not prompt if it has a "run" on the command line.
-10Oct03
-- When pruning, select only old orphanned jobs to delete so that
- the current job is not pruned too.
-09Oct03
-- Corrected return status for bsf_dev and bsr_dev in block.c and btape.c
-- dev.c used incorrect ruturn status for bsf_dev in the BSF at EOM
- code. This caused all appends on FreeBSD to fail.
-- Turn on fast block rejection code.
-08Oct03
-- Optimize file index searches by adding a count to the bootstrap.
-- Write single files/blocks to bootstrap without the second part.
-- Add current Volume status to the cannot use this Volume message.
-- Zero the rx->bsr in ua_restore when freeing so it doesn't get
- freed twice.
-- Lots of testing on the restore
-- I noticed that SD and FD bootstrap files were not always
- deleted, so delete them as soon as possible.
-- Restore by file (or by selecting files) created some
- horrible looking bsr files that defeated the forward
- spacing code, so fix write_findex to work right.
-- Add zlib_strerror() routine in filed/restore in case
- of zlib errors.
-- In filed/restore.c make sure all error returns cleanup
- and close the open file descriptor.
-- Make sure to set *non* over filename in attr packet
- after file is found, so error messages that print the
- filename don't print an old, incorrect name.
-- Allow bclose() to be called after closing the file.
-- Fix a number of unclear help messages, ... reported by
- Phil in btape.
-- Retweak stored/read_record.c so that it does forward
- spacing at the beginning of every tape, not just the
- first one.
-- Print repositioning message if verbose is set.
-
-2003-10-01 Version 1.32a 03Oct03 Release
-04Oct03
-- Combine the code in ua_output and ua_status that searches
- the run records.
-03Oct03
-- Fixed "list nextvol" to search for the correct pool in the
- Schedule Run records.
-- Correct an error in is_block_zero. It found a false
- match if the first 1016 bytes of a 32K buffer and
- the last 248 bytes are zero. Broke the sparse option.
-01Oct03
-- More documentation.
-- Test if multiple mail addresses works. Yes.
-- Add debug Jmsg() to trigger if the file I/O packet is
- not closed in the FD, i.e file descriptor leaks.
-- When error occurs reading label in mount.c, start from
- the very top so that the retry count is in effect.
-- Zap the mode in soft links in testls.c for regression
- testing.
-
-2003-10-01 Version 1.32 30Sep03 Release
-28Sep03
-- Enhance manual faq, regression ...
-- Make FreeBSD read sizes always be a multiple of 512. Needed
- to read raw disks.
-- Make FreeBSD accept block AND character devices for raw
- disk reads. On FreeBSD there are no block devices.
-27Sep03
-- Fix printing of EndTime on job report after rescheduling.
-- Fix jobq.c error returns to clean up before returning.
-- Make Cleaning tape aware of "unlabeled" volumes.
-- If a job is rescheduled, ensure that old job is
- removed from SD's jcr queue -- i.e. it is still waiting
- for FD connection.
-- Test rescheduling code.
-- Change ./configure to detect Cygwin enviornments.
-
-2003-09-26 Version 1.32 26Sep03 Beta
-- Add regression and GUI-interface chapters to the manual.
-- Fix "label" of a volume that is already in the catalog,
- but not yet labeled.
-- Correct the test for spooling attributes which was backward.
- This caused the creation of a spool file in the working
- directory for every job run.
-- Print to the job output stream when block checksum errors
- occur, but continue processing. If more than one occurs,
- print number at end of job.
-- Remove a few unneeded tests from configure.in
-- Modify configure to use -pthread on FreeBSD 4.8,
- but nothing on FreeBSD 5.1
-- Clarify that bmicrosleep() takes sec and microsecs

-
-2003-08-02 Version 1.31a 02Aug03 Released
-- Yifang Dai reported a case where he stress tested Bacula and
- backed up to four volumes, but only two were selected for the
- restore. This is because I forgot that the selection could
- span a volume entirely.
-- Added a missing CLIENT_FOUND_ROWS to the second attempt to open
- the MySQL database -- this prevents UPDATE errors if nothing

-
-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.
-- Fixed idcache.c which was not thread safe and didn't release memory,
- 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.
-- Pass prefix_links to SD.
-- Add command line interface to most items in "update volume=xxx"
-- Add command line interface to restore "jobid", "current", "before", "all".
-- 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.
-- Fix crash when multiple Includes are given (missing parens).
-- 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.

- 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
- job.c where the Dir and FD are communicating.
-- Implemented a Director only heartbeat in the FD for the cases where
- there is either no connection to the SD or the FD is already reading
- from the SD. start_dir_heartbeat() ...
-- Add heartbeat to restore and verify volume.
-- Add "Heartbeat Interval" to Storage resource, which sets interval the
- SD sends heartbeats to the FD and DIR, 0 disables heartbeats.
-- Add "Heartbeat Interval" to FileDaemon resource, which sets the interval
- the FD sends heartbeats to the DIR, 0 disables heartbeats.

- SD heartbeats.
-- First cut label dialog.
-- Turn on new semaphore code for simultaneous Jobs.

-- 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.

-- Add scripts make_catalog_backup and delete_catalog_backup that makes and
- deletes an ASCII copy of the catalog for backup. An example of how
- to use it is in the <bacula-src/src/dird/bacula-dir.conf file.
-- Made a nicer column oriented listing of scheduled jobs for "status dir".
-02Jan03
-- Added backup/restore of raw partitions.
-- Corrected restoration of files in root directory (problem with
- splitting path from file).
-01Jan03
-- Finally decided to cleanup handling of splitting path and filenames
- in the cats directory. Now the code is in one place sql.c and it
- is done using Pool memory, so there are no length restrictions.
-31Dec02
-- Add start of Solaris bare metal recovery
-- Add Site Visit usage statistics to Web page
-- Got Bacula listed on www.backupcentral.com
-30Dec02
-- Retest bare metal recovery on Linux 2 times with verify
-- Cleanup printout of verify differences using proper casting to
- handle shorts and long longs.
-29Dec02
-- Added --enable-client-only to ./configure
-- Modified --enable-static-sd to work better and documented it.
-- Fixed Restore options (never,ifnewer, ...). They now work.
-- Moved the stored.c Resource lock into the allocation thread so
- that the same thread sets/clears it. This created a problem on
- FreeBSD.
-28Dec02
-- Added more rescue documentation.
-- Did a spell check of the Bacula doc.
-- Modified bscan to use the working directory as specified in the
- configuration file as the default.
-25Dec02
-- Fixed an important bug reported by George Motter that caused only
- the last option on an Include record to be used (all previous options
- were lost).
-24Dec02
-- Chase down some inconsistencies in creating Media records from
- the Pool defaults, and in updating/creating the Pool from the
- resource. Also fixed the cats DB routines to include all
- fileds (VolUseDuration was missing for example).
-21Dec02
-- Added building static versions of daemon static-bacula-dir, ...
-- Fine tuned the rescue (bare metal) code including support for grub.
-- Added skeleton freebsd rescue
-- Corrected SQL syntax error in autoprune code (JobType => Type).
-- Added error messages for SQL errors in autopruning.
-19Dec02
-- Documented Bare Metal Recovery
-- Create new "rescue" directory containg the Bare Metal Recovery code.
-- Fiddle with SQL a bit for pruning as apparently the last InitCatalog
- was pruned after the expiration date eventhough it was the ONLY copy!
- I'm not sure this is fixed yet.
-18Dec02
-- Allow Director to pass a NUL where string to FD (fix in FD).
-- Fix installation mv of query.sql.
-- Make sure btraceback.gdb is not wiped on "make distclean"
-- Corrected a bug in mod of replace options pointed out by Dave Anderson.
-16Dec02
-- Started adding FileOptions ...
-- Fixed and incorrect print out of the number of files restored (Jarif).
-- Finally fixed EndBlock (and file address for Files) in catalog!
-- Added hostname to tape header as always planned.
-- Removed Level code (will not implement unless strong demand exists).
-- Tweaked bscan to print number of errors ignored before first SOS.
-- Enhanced btape "fill" to permit using one tape and to dump last
- block before writing and upon read back.
-- Make fsf_dev() return 0 on fail and 1 on success.
-- Use new db_get_job_volume_parameters() to enhance Write Bootstrap to
- contain more info (start/end file/block, file indexes).
-- Added --enable-static-fd, sd, and dir to configuration to enable making
- static versions of the daemons.
-13Dec02
-- The btape test program was indicating errors on Adrian's machine
- using the ATAPI (ide-scsi) tape drive. It turns out that this
- is a fixed block driver as a consequence, Bacula must be setup
- to write fixed blocks. btape was not always using the fixed
- blocks defined in the Bacula config, so that has been updated.
- It now works fine. A lot of tips added to the Bacula test command
- to help guide the user.
-- Documentation of the above significantly improved in the manual.
-12Dec02
-- Added code in watchdog to permit setting and clearing child timers. If
- the timer expires, the child process is killed.
-- Modified restore to handle differential jobs.
-- Added a new test to the btape "test" command
-09Dec02
-- More documentation of new features (week position in scheduler, bsr).
-- Re-read last block written on full tape to verify it.
-- Fix segmentation fault with btape fill command due to missing FileSet MD5.
-07Dec02
-- Created better SQL input editing routines str_to_int64 and str_to_uint64()
-- Pull Client from database in Console restore command.
-- Create a Unique list of Volumes to be mounted (previously had repeats).
-- Made many of the SQL searches better by using the ClientId rather than the name
- in the restore Console command.
-- Modified reading of a tape to include the VolFile info. Once the
- tape is past the specified file, reading stops. The BSR now includes
- both the VolFile and VolBlock. Currently VolBlock is not used.
-- Handle multiple volumes better by creating a real volume list with all
- parameters in it.
-- Display "At prompt waiting for input" in gnome console when at subcommand
- prompt.
-- Broke ascii to internal and internal to string editing routines out into
- new lib/edit.c file.
-02Dec02
-- Added a readme and an afs-bacula script to the examples directory
- that permits Bacula to backup an AFS filesystem. Thanks to
- Lucas Mingarro for the submission.
-- Added A Sun-desktop autoloader script and Device definition to the
- examples/devices subdirectory. Thanks to Lucas Mingarro for the
- submission.
-- If the WriteBootStrap fails, the job will now be marked in error.
-- Added a week position to the scheduler syntax that allows you to
- specify 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or 4th, or first, ... fifth as a week
- position specification in front of a day. So if you say
-
- 1st sun ...
-
- the scheduler will start only on the first sunday of the month. The
- day specification can also be a day range e.g. sun-fri.
- This code is untested.
-- Implemented bpipe.h and bpipe.c in src/lib, which defines a bi-directional
- pipe. This allows executing other programs and sending them information
- as well as getting info from them.
-- Replaced the previous pipe usage with bpipes in RunBeforeJob and
- RunAfterJob.
-- The mail program now uses bpipes rather than pipes, which means that any
- error output will appear in the job output (truly bi-directional).
-- Modified BSR to handle counts and to stop when no more matches are possible.
- This is untested.
-- Improved error messages in smtp.
-
-=============================================================================
-2002-12-12 Version 1.27d
-- This is a minor update that fixes a segmentation fault in btape
- as well as reduces non-important error messages in bscan.
-
-2002-11-29 Version 1.27c
-- Yet another silly error duplicating a column name in the SQLite
- make tables. No code change, just a make file.
-
-2002-11-29 Version 1.27b
-- Set DB version to 5 in DB make files.
-
-2002-11-28 Version 1.27a
-- Use g++ instead of gcc for testfind in tools
-
-2002-11-27 Version 1.27 (26Nov02) released 28 November 2002
-
-General: from kes25Nov02
-- Mostly Cygwin changes
-
-Changes submitted this submission:
-- Updated bdb_find.c to have new calling sequence for db_find_job_start_time
-- dird/catreq.c edit in Volume name in error messages to SD
-- attribs.c switch to using the cygwin API to convert from POSIX paths
- to Win32 paths. This now permits Win32 path specifications in Include
- statements (all combinations not yet tested). It also avoids the large
- number of errors seen by Lutz if a Win32 path is specified in the Dir.
-- Update testfind help and remove set_attribsEx debug code.
-- Build testfind as default.
-- Turn off debug message in stored/askdir.c
-
-General: from kes21Nov02
-- Another change in the database. You MUST either re-initialize
- your database or use the appropriate ./alter_xxx_tables in
- the src/cats directory.
-
-Changes submitted this submission:
-- Additional documentation.
-- Added MaxVolFiles to the database (not yet implemented in code).
-- Increased the database version from 3 to 4.
-- Change VolMaxBytes to MaxVolBytes, which is much more descriptive.
-- Compressed unnecessary spaces out of a lot of SQL statements.
-- Changed many %d to %u where unsigned integers are used.
-- Added the Bacula version and build date to each backup output.
- This will help knowing what version of Bacula was used.
-- Implemented VolUseDuration MaxVolBytes, MaxVolFiles, and MaxVolJobs
- based on maximums set in the Volume (Media) record rather than in the
- resource. This means the values can be individually set on a Volume basis.
-- Allow commas separating Include options (this was a subtle bug).
-- Added maximum string length argments to a number of subroutines to
- prevent buffer overflows. Most notably was do_prompt().
-- Replaced MANY occurrences of strcpy() with bstrncpy(), which guarantees
- both that the length is not exceeded and that the string is properly terminated.
- This has a risk of a certain destabilization -- as does the changes to
- the SQL noted above.
-- In cram-md5 routine use my_name if gethostname() returns an error.
-- Increase timeout from 2 minutes to 3 minutes in authorization code.
-- Check the full string including \n in authorization.
-- Throw away any response longer than MAXSTRING.
-- Added a number of additional error checks on subroutine return statuses.
-- Replaced as many lld's with edit_uint64 as I could find.
-22Nov02:
-- Added MaxVolBytes to Pool record - had forgotten it. Updated DB version.
-23Nov02
-- Update manual to document new Pool/Volume attributes
-- Correct make_sqlite_tables (typo, plus missing value in Pool)
-- Fix bizarre behavior in gnome-console and console when auth fails.
-- Add Pool attribute query
-- Add a few more error messages in askdir.c
-- More strcpy() conversions to bstrncpy().
-
-General: from kes18Nov02
-- Did a number of cleanups of string copying to limit the length
- and prevent buffer overflows.
-
-Changes submitted this submission:
-- Added a mutex arount the gethostbyname() so that multiple simultaneous
- jobs get the correct address.
-- Added the MaxVolJobs to the Media alter tables script for MySQL (forgot it).
-- Changed arg to db_find_job_start_time to be POOLMEM for returning the string.
-- Add the new VolUseDuration and MaxVolJobs to all the db_ routines.
-- Use bstrncpy() in most places in the db_ routines to prevent a bad
- database from crashing Bacula (self protection).
-
-General: from kes13Nov02
-- You MUST either re-initialize your databases or use the
- ./alter_mysql_tables
- or
- ./alter_sqlite_tables
- in the <bacula-src>/src/cats directory to modify your database tables.
-- Major improvements to dbcheck including an interactive mode.
-
-Changes submitted this submission:
-- Implemented VolumeUseDuration and MaximumVolumeJobs which control
- when a tape can be marked Used.
-- New tape status "Used" means it was used and cannot be used any more.
-- Defined utime_t which is 64 bit epoch time in seconds. btime_t is
- 64 bit epoch time in microseconds.
-- Created alter_xxx_tables to add new columns (VolUseDuration, MaxVolJobs) to
- database. Incremented db version.
-- Changed a few subroutine names concerning dates to be more descriptive.
-- Fixed several places where the last filename was not stored in JCR in
- FD verify_vol.c and restore.c
-- Major update to dbcheck. Unfortunately I used subselects, which work
- perfectly fine in SQLite, but not at all in MySQL. I must now rework
- it for MySQL. What a pain!
-- Removed "Database found" from configure output. It was no longer used or valid.
-- Corrected doc --working-dir => --with-working-dir Thanks to Tuck for
- reporting this.
-- Added the database name to the error message for mismatched DB version.
-- Commented out GMP and CWEB from configure as they are not currently used.
-
-General: from kes09Nov02
-- Converted the manual over to a new format written in wml. This
- gives navigation buttons on the top and bottom of each page
- as well as a standard page size.
-- Updated the main Web site, providing a menu bar to the left
- and much better organization and presentation of the information.
-- Added code to recognize a Volume written with a larger block
- size than specified. The code automatically adjusts.
-
-Changes submitted this submission:
-- Created a new scripts directory and moved most of the scripts
- previously in the main directory there. This cleans things up
- quite a bit.
-- Moved the randpass stuff into autoconf.
-- ensure that the generic make_bacula_tables and drop_bacula_tables
- are installed.
-- Added code to filed to allow it to be run from inetd. Just add the
- -i option. I have not tested it.
-
-General: from kes30Oct02
-- Alex found a problem with GZIP compression -- fixed.
-- bacula stript fixes.
-- Segment fault in Director fixed.
-- Added openbsd to platforms
-
-Changes submitted this submission:
-- GZIP compression was broken for large files due to a variable that
- is changed during the compression. This was relatively easy to fix.
- However, there were a number of fixes required to make GZIP and SPARSE
- files work together. Found one more place in bextract where SPARSE_GZIP
- testing was missing.
-- During testing of the above, I ran into the restore problem of multiple
- FileSet records. Fixed by including the FileSetId and the MD5 on the
- selection string, then always using the FileSetId. It is a bit
- confusing for the user, but ...
-- Francis found a problem with bacula.in (fixed - thanks)
-- I found another problem with bacula.in, so now it REALLY should work
- on most systems.
-- Added the Replace options code for restores. Not tested.
-- Fixed an ugly stack overrun bug in reading the config file
- that has been in for a long time. I found this in testing on FreeBSD
- where the Director seg faulted.
-
-General: from kes29Oct02
-- Major change to the bnet communications routines.
-
-Changes submitted this submission:
-- Modified the bacula script to use pid files, so this script should
- now work on more platforms. Updated devel_bacula as well.
-- Added the full GNU hostname on the configuration print output.
-- Added gettimeofday() to configure, and tweaked a few variables for
- OpenBSD.
-- Added a chapter to the manual on Porting Bacula to other platforms.
-- Documented in Tips how to use the WriteBootstrap record.
-- Modified bc_types.h to error if 64 bit types are not found.
-- Pass replace option for restore to the FD (no code to use it yet).
-- Modify the FD to pass back the GNU OS string as well as the DISTNAME
- and DISTVER. This needs to be put in the Client record in the catalog.
-- Major reworking of the bnet routines to eliminate the zero length which
- previously indicated a signal. This risks to create some subtle communications
- bugs. The changes now permit blank lines to be sent from the user to the
- Director.
-- Found and corrected a few more places where the Win32 attributes were not
- being recognized.
-- Permit spaces in the Where string (restore) by bashing/unbashing them.
-- Handle quotes correctly in the Console program (actually Dir ua code).
- Previously they were not handled in the middle of a string.
-- Corrected two error message (error reading file), which previously stated
- it was a network error.
-- Reworked the files in the binary Windows release. Removed unused programs
- and added a README with the copyright as suggested by John. Also added
- console.exe to the release.
-- Found and corrected an autoloader mount problem where the wrong tape
- was specified. Previously it looped, then gave up. Now it correctly
- detects the volume is not correct and zaps the Slot in the catalog.
-
-General: from kes23Oct02
-- I have mainly worked on getting all the details of a Restore
- to work correctly (new tape format, support for Win32
- attributes, ...)
-- Trademarked name Bacula.
-- Implement Bacula tape format 11 (1.0 Immortal). This format
- will be maintained forever.
-- Accept Any Volume is yes by default. This modifies Bacula's behavior
- when writing tapes.
-
-Changes submitted this submission:
-- Corrected a bug on FreeBSD where CFLAGS would get a "yes". I was
- unable to reproduce this, but a user confirmed the correction.
- It was a problem with detection of largefile support, which FreeBSD
- has by default.
-- Added a new "license" chapter in the manual. Re-licensed a number of
- library routines (bnet.c, hmac.c md5.c, cram-md5, ...) with LGPL so that they
- can be used in proprietary software to access Bacula if so desired.
-- Move Director's AutoChanger doc to correct location (in Storage
- resource).
-- Document why trademark (to protect compatibility).
-- Implement and turned on Bacula tape format 11 (also BB02). This
- format moves the VolSessionId and VolSessionTime from each record
- header into the Block header. This is MUCH more efficient when reading
- records as now whole blocks can be skipped.
- Also added JobStatus in End Of Session record, and added MD5 for
- FileSet, which is necessary to insure uniqueness.
-- Implement a new Bacula time format for btime_t. It is Epoch time
- in microseconds (i.e. base 1 Jan 1970 in microseconds).
- This replaces previous floating point times.
-- Added Win32 extended attributes. In doing so, I moved all attribute
- handling from src/lib into src/findlib. Added new streams for
- Win32 attributes and for GZIP Win32 attributes.
-- Modified "Accept Any Volume" so that it really permits any volume
- in the pool to be mounted.
-- Removed "Mount Anonymous Volumes" from Storage daemon config.
-- Implemented sparse files. You must add "sparse=yes" on the include line
- for it to be enabled.
-- Print "None" in backup summary rather than 0.0% if there is no compression
- enabled.
-- Improved error checking in daemon connection/authentication code to prevent
- garbage data from harming a Bacula daemon.
-- All daemon tools MUST have a config file.
-- Completely strip drive specification on Win32 if a Where prefix is specified.
-- Corrected DB info for writing to files. Now the File Address is stored
- in File-Block variables in the catalog.
-- All Storage daemon tools now use common code for acquiring/reading
- Volumes.
-- If a device is unmounted, report it even if the device is not open. This
- will help inform users who have BLOCKED Bacula by unmounting a drive.
-

-=============================================================================
-2002-10-12 Version 1.26 (10Oct02)
-General: from kes10Oct02
-- Changed Job name conventions to avoid : which is an illegal
- character on Windows.
-
-Changes submitted this submission:
-- Added check for inet_pton to configure.in. If it does not
- exist (e.g. Windows) use inet_aton
-- Documentation on GZIP.
-- Another restore doc example.
-- Documented btape fill command.
-- Set default restore directory from /tmp to /tmp/bacula-restores
-- Add additional no find error messages to sql_get.c
-- Creating a bootstrap file on Windows failed because the Job name
- contained colons which are illegal on Windows. Replaced the
- colons with periods. This corrects the Windows restore problem.
-- Print number of files to be restored in "restore" command.
-- On Windows systems, if there is a prefix, completely eliminate
- any drive: at the beginning of a path.
-- Minor corrections to the tree routines to handle Windows
- files such as c:/ better. Previously it insisted on /c:/, which
- would then not be found in the catalog for a "dir" command.
-- Modified cd command in restore to try /c: if c: fails.
-- Add a new S_ISWIN32 bit to the st_mode word so that low level
- routines that create files do not print error messages.
-- More work must be done to restore all Windows files correctly.
- Currently the following bits are not handled:
- Archive
- Hidden
- System
- Also, all the dates are not properly restored.
-
-General: from kes09Oct02
-- More documentation.
-- Implemented new fill command in btape that permits filling
- a tape and then reading it back to ensure that it works
- with Bacula.
-
-Changes submitted this submission:
-- Added ReadBytes to JCR, which contains Job bytes read by
- FD, JobBytes contains compressed output of FD.
-- Modified FD to pass back JobStatus, ReadBytes, JobBytes, ...
- for backup jobs. This is upward compatible.
-- Modified backup termination status report to contain the
- compression ratio 100 * (1 - compressed-bytes/uncompressed-bytes)
- This will always be zero if no software compression was
- done, or if you are using a version 1.25 or older FD.
-- Pickup Job termination status of FD in backup, so now
- the termination status represents the state of all three
- daemons.
-- Implemented new fill command in btape that permits filling
- a tape and then reading it back to ensure that it works
- with Bacula.
-
-General: From kes06Oct02
-- Implemented first major cut of bscan -- program to scan a tape
- and recreate a Bacula catalog.
-- Fixed lseek() relative negative seek that prevented writing multiple
- jobs to a File volume.
-- Implemented BB02 tape format -- currently turned off for writing.
-
-Changes submitted this submission:
-- Updated README
-- Implemented new BB02 tape format, which moves the VolSessionId and
- VolSessionTime from the record headers into the Block header. It
- is currently turned off.
-- Implemented new btime time/date format on the tape. This is currently
- turned off.
-- Added JobStatus to EOS tape label. This is currently turned off.
-- Changed start_block, ... to StartBlock in JCR for uniformity.
-- Print a message telling which tables were dropped/made with
- ./drop_bacula_tables.
-- Return JobType and JobLevel in db_get_job_record().
-- Implemented get_current_btime(), which returns btime_t.
-- Bump debug message max size to 2000 bytes.
-- Add btime_t serial/unserial routines.
-- Rework all tape label routines to integrate btime and other
- label format changes (currently turned off -- for writing).
-- Fix lseek() to always be positive -- block.c
-- Consolidate record, block, and label major #defines in block.h.
-- Major implementation of bscan. Some more minor tweaking will be
- necessary. E.g. add multiple records for multiple simultaneous
- Jobs.
-- Cleanup lseek() to always use off_t as second argument.
-- Add new "created" tape label (EOT_LABEL). This generates a callback
- to the read_records() routine when the final end of all tapes is
- reached allowing proper termination and updating of the media records.
-
-General: From kes25Sep02
-- Added means to bind servers to specific address.
-- Documentation
-
-Changes submitted this submission:
-- Added DirAddress, FDAddress, and SDAddress records to the corresponding
- resources that allow the server to bind to a specific address
- rather than any address. This security improvement was suggested by
- a user -- thank you.
-- Eliminated deprecated "Address" record from all sample Storage resources.
-- Made quite a lot of improvements to the bscan program. Much more
- to do. Aside from details, it is able to recreate a database
- from which you can do a restore.
-- The s option is not accepted on all versions of ar, so replaced it
- by an explicit ranlib call.
-- Fixed a bug that caused the Director to crash if you rudely bring
- down the console program in the middle of an SQL command.
-- Fixed a bug (missing break) that caused scheduled Admin jobs to
- be listed as "Unknown type".
-- Removed old code from Storage daemon that used a separate FD port.
-
-General: From kes14Sep02
-- Better key generation on non OpenSSL systems.
-- 64 bit file address support if available.
-- Implement autochanger for reading
-- Lots of cleanup of tape reading code.
-- Automatically create all Pool resources when Bacula starts.
-- Implement bscan.c
-- Implement autochanger use via the Console commands "add" and "label"
-- Begin implementation of a regression script
-- Write bootstrap after ever job
-
-Changes submitted this submission:
-- After noticing that the non OpenSSL random key generator was
- not good on Solaris, John wrote a very nice randpass generator.
-- Integrated John's makeSessionKey for generating the FD->SD
- authorization.
-- Statically link tools (doesn't work on Solaris).
-- Document how to debug Bacula (new chapter in the manual)
-- Remove unneeded printing of error message in sql_get.c
-- Free SD description config record (previous oversight)
-- Bash spaces when sending Director names, and unbash them when
- received.
-- Ensure no divide by zero in rate computation in backup.c
-- Implement WriteBootstrap in backup.c
-- Allow tape reading to request volume information for any
- volume.
-- Create all Pool resources at startup.
-- Show only Backup jobs in Restore listing of last 20 Jobs.
-- Handle 64 bit stat packets in restore.
-- Don't do shell expansion on store_dir in config if string
- starts with |. This is used for piping the program for the
- WriteBootstrap.
-- Ignore SIGHUP -- Déjà Gnu was triggering this.
-- Implement autochanger for reading, many changes to
- acquire_device_for_read()
-- Implement callback for reading Volume. Implement in bextract,
- bls, and bscan.
-- Implement bscan

-
-=============================================================================
-2002-09-05 Version 1.25a (05Sep02) Released
-- Fix unitialized stack variable in bextract so it
- will always read the currently mounted tape.
-
-=============================================================================
-2002-09-04 Version 1.25 (01Sep02) Released
- General:
-- Added .cvsignore files in each directory to cut down on the
- CVS output when scanning directories and finding Makefiles
- and such which are not part of the CVS tree.
-
- Changes submitted this submission:
-- Cleaned up a lot of the error messages in Verify, including
- indenting.
-- Had to remove some of the "automatic" error message printing
- in the DB because they are in fact things that come up
- for Verify but not really errors.
-
-
- 2002-08-30 Version 1.25 (30Aug02) Beta
- From kes30Aug02
-- Fixed a bug where only the first file was restored if
- it is hard linked. The other links were lost.
-- In some cases of restoring to alternate directories, softlinks
- were not properly restored.
-
- From kes28Aug02
- General:
-- Bacula backups now run up to 12 times faster than version 1.24
-- Bacula can run multiple simultaneous Jobs.
-- Had to turn off TRANSACTIONS in SQLite because it doesn't work
- with multiple simultaneous jobs (I'm working on this).
-- Added a better Job printout for Restore Jobs.
-- Added a save/restore Rate to backup and restore jobs. This
- does not yet subtract out operator wait time so it will be
- underestimated it the Job waits on the tape (mount/label).
-- Fixed a major bug caused by free()ing a buffer twice in
- the Restore code. This made the SD more or less useless after
- any restore Job. Arrggg!
-- DIR - SD protocol changed, both must be updated at the same time.
-- DIR - FD protocol changed in upward compatible way. Upgrade of
- FD not required, but recommended.
-
- Changes submitted this submission:
-- Added bell to "make" when errors are detected.
-- Changed default compile option from -g to -g -O2
-- Additional documentation as usual -- much based on questions or
- feedback from users. Thanks.
-- Fixed example config files to use new syntax and to have a
- Restore Job.
-- Define ETIME to ETIMEOUT for Irix
-- Added JCR filed to DB structure permitting direct printing error
- messages from within the Database subroutines.
- Some error messages may be printed twice as a consequence.
- When I see them or someone reports them, I will remove the double.
-- Added JCR to the bsock structure. This allows direct printing
- of network errors from within the network code.
-- Made most "trivial" debug messages have level 100 or greater. This
- allows for easier debugging of new code using the range below 100.
-- Began replacing all Emsg() with Jmsg() using a NULL as the JCR in
- Jmsg() is the same as Emsg().
-- Fixed several crashes in the Director because of malformed config files.
-- Added SpoolAttributes to Job resource.
-- Pass CatalogFiles to SD. If set to no, the attributes are dropped
- within the SD rather than being sent to the DIR.
-- Cleaned up a number of information/error messages in user interface.
- This includes eliminating the "pretty please" response in favor of
- "yes/no" to delete volumes and pools.
-- Cleaned up quite a number of uninitialized variables reported when going
- to -O2, most were harmless, but a couple could cause problems.
-- The cd command in restore was not working correctly (it didn't allow some
- legal cds).
-- Fixed a segmentation violation in the directory tree handling code in
- the restore command.
-- Handle a few error conditions in the restore command better.
-- Permit "Where" to be set to nul in modification of a run command.
-- Clarified the error message for Verify if an InitCatalog has not previously
- been done -- thanks Chuck.
-- Add MaximumConcurrentJobs to FD.
-- Added code to mem_pool to die if a buffer is released twice.
-- Lots of work done on SD for multiple simultaneous jobs. Split device.c
- into device.c, mount.c and acquire.c
-- Started writing new lock code for SD, but may back it out -- needs more
- thought. Current code works, but is too complicated. Maybe can simplify it.
-- Cleaned up the SD tools code quite a bit. Added bootstrap to all tools.
-- Ensure that tape session labels are not split across two blocks. This makes
- reading them back much easier.
-- Fixed another restore bug concerning tape labels on multi-volume saves.

-2002-08-14 Version 1.24
- From kes12Aug02
-- Made a new tools directory.
-- Moved smtp into the tools directory.
-- Created a dbcheck program in the tools directory that
- checks for certain database errors and if requested fixes them.
-- Put the database link flags on DB_LIBS so that it now only is
- on binaries that actually need it.
-- Document dbcheck and testfind programs.
-- Move testfind to tools directory.
-- Check for FileSet after getting Client name in Restore command.
- Modify all necessary SQL commands to accept FileSetId.
-- Add a db_get_fileset_record in cats directory.
-- Correct list last 20 files concatenation to be MySQL
- dependent. They aren't SQL standard. Use SQL standard || for
- other SQL programs.
-- Modify dir command in file selection to produce a long form
- listing of the file/directory name.
-- Add platforms/irix/*.in files to CVS
-- Make Console command scanner accept quoted value fields.
-- If after selecting Client to restore, there are multiple
- FileSets, ask user to select one.
-- After obtaining JobIds for restore, ensure that there is only
- one MediaType, and select a Storage resource to be used.
-
- From kes11Aug02
-- Made restore actually work.
-- Made console and gconsole be configured (requested by Chuck)
-- Updated kernstodo
-- changed fs in Job record to fileset for clarity
-- The console run command was not properly picking up the command
- line arguments. Fixed!
-- Changed add/remove/rm to mark/unmark
-- Volume keyword VolumeName was wrong, changed to Volume (in restore bsr).
-- Pass jcr to parse_bsr, and if non-NULL, it will output error messages
- to Job stream rather than Emsg.
-- Modified lexical scanner to include caller context so that jcr can
- be stored in lex context allowing error messages to be properly
- routed.
-- Renamed the Job message chain to be jcr_msgs. This eliminated the
- previous confusion with the default value, now named jcr->messages.
-- Implemented multi-volume bsr records.
-- Implemented pm_strcat() and pm_strcpy() to cat/add to memory pool
- buffers in same way as strcat/strcpy, but expanding buffer.
-- Modified db_get_volume_names to handle arbitrarily long Volume list.
-
- From kes07Aug02
-- If the Console program terminated during the printing of messages,
- the message file was left locked. This was corrected by using the
- new read-write lock code.
-- Implemented Pw() and Vw() for obtaining and releasing a write lock
- using the rwl_xxx routines.
-- Deleted some old pthread_mutex code from mysql.c
-- In making the Irix port, I previously corrected the base64 routine so
- they were not sensitive to the machine definition of char. This made
- them incompatible with previous versions invalidating MD5 signatures
- which are in base64 format. I have now corrected this, making the
- routines compatible with the previous version but also insensitive
- to the default definition of char.
-- Removed some unnecessary NPRT() usage in signal.c (pointed out by
- the Irix compiler).
-- Add back BNET_NONO for compatibility with older File daemons.
-- Implement runing a restore Job in the restore command.
-- Make installation of query.sql unconditional. To prevent you own file
- from being overwritten, give it a different name.
-- Made parse_command_args() in ua take command from ua->cmd, this
- simplifies it and allows usage in other places -- e.g. building
- arguments for created run command in restore.
-- Cleaned the naming of s_full_ctx to be s_jobids.
-- Write the bsr created in restore to "working-directory"/restore.bsr
-- Fix bugs in command line scanner in run command -- also some misplaced
- breaks!
-- Eliminate static cmd in ua_server.c
-- Eliminate segmentation fault when using the Run command in the
- Console -- forgot to init_msgs().
-
- From kes06Aug02
-- Did a good amount of documentation.
-- Added sql_cmds.c to CVS, forgot, pointed out by Chuck.
-- Added new platforms/irix directory to CVS
-- Turn off transaction debug code in sql.c
-- Reworked the scheduler so that it handles the same Job starting
- twice in the same hour. Previously it took one or the other.
-- Tightened up the "slop" in the timings that I programmed to ensure
- that the same job isn't run twice or that no job was missed.
-- Increase the sleep time.
-- Used job_type_to_str() in status so that Admin jobs are correctly reported.
-- Add internationalization message chars to a number of routines
- in util.c
-- Make the watchdog timer clear the mutex when it exits.
-- Some tweaks to the Restore command. It needs fixing when a Job spans
- two or more volumes.
-
- From kes05Aug02
-- Initial cut at adding Irix File daemon support.
-- Lots of work on the restore command.
-- Take a stab at eliminating the "broken pipe message"
- when the console program prematurely terminates.
-- Reimplemented transactions for SQLite by keeping
- them all in the same thread.
-- quit in the Console program now waits for Bacula to
- quit. To immediately quit, you must enter .quit
-- Eliminated BNET_EOF -- this COULD have some negative consequences
- on interdaemon communications.
-- Define Job termination status for Admin jobs.
-- Write new bstrncpy() function that guarantees that strcpy is
- properly terminated.
-- Fixed command input in ua_input.c to accept quoted items as a
- single field.
-
- From kes01Aug02
-- The changes that added indexes to the SQLite database were
- lost -- thanks to Chuck for pointing this out. Redone.
-- Fixed a problem quoting strings in SQLite. This showed up
- as database errors with files containing ' or " in the filename.
-- Implemente restore command -- still in progress.
-- Added indexes to all fields in SQLite that exist in MySQL.
-- Moved unused immortal files from src/lib to src/immortal.
- This will permit splitting depkgs.
-- Started work on adding embedded MySQL. Cannot get the tables
- to work for the moment. Please don't try to use this option.
-- Convert to using single quotes for enclosing all strings.
-- Implement correct quoting algorithm for SQLite strings.
- Is dequoting needed?
-- Started centralizing SQL statments in the Director in sql_cmds.c
-- Changed a number of M_ABORTs to M_ERROR_TERM so that program terminates
- but does not produce a dump.
-- Allow wild-card matches in bsr for Client name, and Job.
-- Change OflineOnUnmount=no as default.
-- Fixed improper printing of filenames containing a space in bls.c
- Thanks to Carlos for reporting this.

-===========================================================================
-2002-07-26 Release 1.23a
-- Fix segmentation fault is FD status.
-- Turn off TRANSACTIONs for SQLite.
-
-===========================================================================
-2002-07-23 Release 1.23
- From kes22Jul02
-- Updated Bacula to handle some minor differences in MySQL 4.0.2
- (still works with older MySQLs).
-- Updated MySQL documentation to correct some minor errors.
-- Added kernstodo to CVS
-- Fixed create_mysql_database, which I recently accidently broke.
-- Disallow zero length volume names in Console program.
-- Create alter_mysql_tables and alter_sqlite_tables for conversion
- from 1.22 table format to 1.23 table format.
-
- From kes20Jul02
-- Investigation of SQLite performace problems reported by Chuck.
-- Updated ChangeLog
-- Updated README
-- made root@localhost the default email address because many smtp
- servers reject root but accept root@localhost
-- Added an autochangers chapter to the manual.
-- Documented most of the new features in 1.23
-- Modified the SQLite interface code to start a transaction at the
- beginning of a job and commit it at the end of the job. It
- also commits it after 10000 changes. Hopefully this will
- improve performance.
-- Set the default cache pages from 2000 to 10000 for SQLite (i.e.
- about 15Megs of memory) hoping to improve performance.
-- Terminate last filename referenced in FD prior to copy to
- avoid race problem with multiple threads and no locking.
-- Enhanced the status output to include the JobType
-- Print an error message if the email program terminates in error.
-- If your machine has an MTUNLOCK, do it before doing an OFFLINE to
- ensure that the door is unlocked.
-- Added code to stored/append.c to spool attributes. This is in
- a testing stage and must be explicitly enabled.
-- Added a no_attributes variable to stored/append.c that prevents
- the attributes from being sent to the Director. As yet, no way
- to turn it on.
-- Modified SQLite code so that after 10000 updates any transaction
- is committed, then restarted. This keeps it from using too much
- memory.
-- Set the default cache size to 10000 pages (previously 2000).
-- Fixed a segmentation fault on Sun due to no default value for
- the JobStatus.
-- Added the same indexes to SQLite that I exist in MySQL. This
- VASTLY reduces CPU usage for lots of inserts.
-- Added spooling to bnet_send().
-
- From kes18Jul02
-- The following two changes were prompted by questions/suggestions
- from A Morgan.
-- If you have "AlwaysOpen = no" in your SD Device
- resource, Bacula will free() the drive when it
- is finished with the Job.
-- If you have "Offline On Unmount = yes", in your
- SD Device resource, Bacula will offline (or eject)
- the tape prior to freeing it.
-- Added Maximum Open Wait to allow open() to wait if drive is busy.
-- Added RunBeforeJob and RunAfterJob records to Job records.
- This permits running an external program with the following editing
- codes:
- %% = %
- %c = Client's name
- %d = Director's name
- %i = JobId
- %e = Job Exit
- %j = Job
- %l = Job Level
- %n = Job name
- %t = Job type
-
- From kes17Jul02
-- Added autochanger support to devices.c
-- Allow user to change Slot in the Volume record.
-- Implemented code in lib to run an external program
- (tape changer)
-- Implemented a changer script for mtx.
-- Currently the changer commands used are:
- loaded -- returns number of slot loaded or 0
- load -- loads a specified slot
- unload -- unloads the device (returns casette to slot)
-- Other changer commands defined but not yet used:
- list -- returns list of slots containing a cassette
- slots -- returns total number of slots
-- Implemented ChangerCommand, specified in the SD Device
- resource, permits editing of:
- %% = %
- %a = archive device name
- %c = changer device name
- %f = Client's name
- %j = Job name
- %o = command
- %s = Slot base 0
- %S = Slot base 1
- %v = Volume name
-- Implemented MaximumChangerWait default 120 seconds. It is
- specified in the SD Device resource.
-
- From kes15Jul02
-- Moved techlogs from main directory to be subdirectory of doc
-- Added code for strerror_r, and detection of gethostbyname_r().
-- The protocol between the Director and the SD has changed.
-- Major rework of SD tape mounting to prepare for Changer commands.
-- Separated Update Media record and Create JobMedia record. These
- are done from the SD by calling the Director. Need separate Create
- JobMedia so that when a Job spans a volume, all other Jobs writing
- the same volume will also have JobMedia records created.
-- Added message to user indicating selection aborted if he enters .
- to a Console selection request.
-- Create a jobstatus_to_ascii() routine for use in status commands.
- This makes a single routine from three separate pieces of code.
- Updated the code to properly handle more (all) termination statuses.
-- Tried to fix the gnome-console to handle history a bit better. There
- are still some problems with focus not being properly set to the edit
- box after history replacement.
-- Removed the shutdown() from bnet_close() hoping to fix Console termination
- errors that are occassionally seen -- no luck.
-- Moved add_str() to lib/util and renamed it add_str_to_pool_mem() so that
- it can be used to edit Job termination codes and Changer command codes.
-- Reworked how the SD mounts tapes (in device.c) so that control passes through
- only a single routine. The logic is much simpler than previously, and now
- adding AutoChanger code is straight forward.
-- Made SD tape mounting much more fault tolerant -- more cases retry instead
- of terminating the Job.
-- Wrote code to edit_device_codes() for Changer commands. Not yet fully
- implemented.
-- Added a ChangerDevice directive to the Device resource. Still need to add
- ChangerCommand.
-
- From kes07Jul02
-- This documents what I did while on vacation.
-- A fair amount of documentation.
-- Implemented Verify Volume to Catalog (needs renaming)
-- Modified the database to include new MarkId field as
- well as Counters. Database level is incremented from 1 to 2.
-- Added first cut of managing autochangers by implementing Slot in DB.
-- Fixed a good number of M_ERROR messages to be M_FATAL where appropriate.
- Also converted a number of Emsg() to Jmsg() permitting better Job error
- messages.
-- First cut at implementing a general packet passing mechanism for bsock
- to replace printf and sscanf for passing data.
-- Made make_xxx_tables and drop_xxx_tables and create_xxx_database
- for bdb as well as sqlite. With this each database has the
- same set of scripts (with the exception that MySQL has grant_privileges).
-- Modified Makefile to only install the database scripts for the
- database that you are using.
-- Updated the pdf script to include all the html files.
-- Did quite a lot of documentation.
-- Made Bacula compile correctly with DEBUG turned off.
-- Implemented Pmsg() macros that permit using the debug print
- routines even with DEBUG off.
-- Updated job_cancelled() macro to handle JS_FatalError.
-- Changed db_find_last_full_verify() to db_find_last_jobid(). This
- permits working with Verify Volume to Catalog.
-- Removed TRANSACTION code from incrementing NextId for SQLite.
-- Implemented quick and dirty (not fully functional code) so that
- console program does not die if ctl-Z is entered.
-- Cleaned up backup.c a bit adding a bail_out goto to ensure proper
- handling of errors with minimum code.
-- Added passing Slot back and forth to Storage daemon with Volume info.
-- Implemented Slot in Media record in DB.
-- Implemented first cut of Counter resource in dird_conf.c. A counter
- resource is part of the Pool resource.
-- Implemented necessary database record. However, the resource doesn't
- yet create a DB record.
-- Implemented onefs (One File System) and recurse options on Include
- resource.
-- Implemented autopruning of Verify and Restore Jobs.
-- Did a better job of calculating thread_concurrency() for Sun systems.
- This permits better multi-threading allowing all the threads to run
- at the same time.
-- Implemented a wait_for_storage_daemon_termination(), which is used by
- backup and verify volume.
-- Clarified a number of UA prompts, and add feedback where certain commands
- completed but printed nothing. (More work to be done here).
-- Added a pile of new code to implement Verify Volume to Catalog. It is sort
- of a hybrid of "restore" and "verify" in that it actually reads the tape,
- then compares it to the catalog. Need Verify Volume to Client.
-- Added a good number of checks for job_cancelled() this should permit
- quicker and more reliable cancelling of jobs.
-- Fixed one bug in restore where I used ofile instead of lname, which means
- that if the lname was too long, the memory was not properly reallocated.
-- Cleaned up find_one.c in findlib quite a bit.
-- Link smtp static so that it works even if the libraries are messed up.
-- If mail host is not found, retry with local host in smtp.
-- Added slot and stream to the bootstrap record processing.
-- Do offline on tape cartrige for unmount command. This can be turned off
- by the user in the config file. OffLineOnUnmount in Device resource.
-- Implemented AutoChanger = yes/no in Device resource.
-
-===========================================================================
-2002-07-07 Release 1.22
-- All the basic Restore code to handle the boostrap file is
- now implemented with the exception of the Console Restore command.
-- Retained compatibility with previous Restore providing no
- bootstrap file is specified. However, the old code (JobId based)
- will go away in a future release.
-- Fixed a number of segmentation faults in the Console program due
- to printing of NULL pointers -- thanks to Chuck and his Sun for
- finding and reporting them -- mostly in ua_output.c.
-
- From kes25Jun02
-- Null pointers now are printed as *None* if NPRT() is used.
-- At the request of Phil, all resources are now chained in in the
- order they appear in the config file.
-- Implement Bootstrap record in the Director's config file, which
- allows you to specify a predefined bootstrap file for Restore Jobs.
-- Allow Bootstrap on the Restore record. This is deprecated.
-- Implemented code to pass the Bootstrap file, if defined, to the
- File daemon, then from the File daemon to the Storage daemon.
-- Added ability to set Bootstrap file in the Console when running a Restore.
-- Allow scan_error() routine to be passed to lex_open_file(). This permits
- using lex in the Storage daemon without worrying that it will ABORT on
- a syntax error. More work is needed to direct the error messages correctly.
-- Improved error messages a bit when config syntax errors are found.
-- Tested and corrected some errors in match_bsr.c
-- Removed askdir.c from bls and bextract by defining dummy entry points.
-- bextract now has bootstrap pretty well integrated.
-- Changed bextract ABORTs into FATAL and exit(1) or ERROR_TERMINATE.
- More user friendly.
-- Eliminated at least one lld and replaced it by edit_uint64()
-- Eliminated a few more _PROTO()s.
-- Corrected a problem with the SQL for in query.sql for
- Listing Volumes to Restore All Files
-
- From kes22Jun02
-- Additional documentation.
-- Reduce the time the jcr mutex is locked in lib/jcr.c
-- More null pointer printing fixes in lib/parse_conf.c (debug output only).
-- Added daemon filename to Kaboom message so I know what daemon died.
-- Fix big bad bug introduced in watchdog.c last update that caused
- a segmentation violation (forgot to check for NULL pointer).
-- Add a bit more info to bad returns from Stored when starting
- a job fails.
-
- From kes21Jun02
-- Fixed scan_to_eol
-- Fixed backup scanning forgot one T_STRING -> T_UNQUOTED_STRING
-- changed all rwlock_t to brwlock_t to avoid conflicts with
- Solaris library.
-- Added NPRT() macro to allow printing of NULL pointers, which
- segment fault on Solaris.
-- Cast printing of pid_t to int for Solaris compiler.
-
- From kes20Jun02
-- Added expect argment to lex_get_token().
-- Added tree.c and tree.h to lib directory.
-
- From kes19Jun02
-- Improvements to the bootstrap compiler
-- Implemented first cut of bootstrap code in the Storage daemon
-- Modified the authentication code to be more explicit during
- failures.
-- Added a few more debug message numbers with more arguments (Dmsg10, ...)
-- Added more and more precise error messages when authentication fails.
-- Implemented new "expect" codes in the lexical scanner that allows
- the caller to specify what he wants.
-- Added integer, positive integer, 64 bit integer, and integer ranges,
- and name scanning to lex.
-- Implemented new lex code in parse_conf.c, this reduces significantly
- the code.
-- Hopefully fixed a watchdog race bug that caused the watchdog to time
- out a line after 1 hour rather than 6 days.
-
- From kes15Jun02
-- Implemented a Bootstrap file parser and matcher.
-- Implemented first cut of bootstrap code in bextract
-- Started clarifying different termination codes.
-- Added M_ERROR_TERM to immediately terminate the daemon -- no dump.
- Also changed a few termination codes as appropriate.
-- Fixed create_jobmedia_record() to include all the fields such as
- StartFile/EndFile, StartBlock/EndBlock.
-- Print user friendly message when query mode ends.
-- Fixed ls style print routines (bextract, bls, restore) to check
- buffer size, to print the link if any, and to used edit_uint64()
- instead of %lld.
-- Moved scan_to_eol() and s_err() to lex.c to avoid dragging in
- parse_conf.c for new bsr scanning code.
-- New files: bsr.h, parse_bsr.c and match_bsr.c. parse_bsr.c parses
- a Bootstrap file, and match_bsr.c matches a bsr against a tape.
-- use strcasecmp() in several places instead of lcase().
-- Add first cut of bootstrap to bextract.
-- Added File Size limit -- writes EOF after limit exeeded.
-
-===========================================================================
-2002-06-12 Release 1.21
-- Fixed several problems with filenames being truncated if
- they contain spaces. Thanks to the user that reported this.
-- N.B. To get the new queries, after the "make" and
- "make install" you must explicitly replace the
- existing query.sql by query.sql.new. query.sql is a
- user configuration file, so it is not overwritten.
-- Added GZIP compression of Included files.
-- Added additional fields to tape SOS record permitting better
- recovery with no database.
-- Be sure to remove any !terminate statements you may have
- in your config files.
-- MUST UPDATE ALL DAEMONS due to protocol change to handle new
- tape format.
-
- From kes11Jun02:
-- Updated examples directory with my most recent config files.
-- Modified the M_TERM meaning to mean that Bacula has
- terminated in error without producing a dump. Previously,
- it meant that Bacula terminate (with or without error).
- You should remove any !terminate from your messages
- resources.
-- Changed the order of the libraries in the link so that
- tcp wrappers link properly. Thanks Phil for reporting this.
-- A user reported that filenames containing spaces were truncated
- in bextract. This was indeed the case. They were also truncated
- in Restore as well as in Verify. They are, hopefully, all fixed
- now.
-- Made a few error conditions in Verify non-fatal.
-- Modified the Console "query" command to permit multiple SQL
- statements per command.
-- Implemented three new "query" options:
- List last 10 Full Backups for a Client
- List Volumes used by selected JobId
- List Volumes to Restore All Files
- To use them, simply type "query" to the Console program, and
- select the one you want.
-- Modified bextract to default to extracting all files (i.e. /).
-- Cleaned up the code in bextract a bit.
-
- From kes03Jun02:
-- Improve Verify command to include files examined.
-- Eliminate fcntl() locking of the console file and replaced
- it with a pthreads mutex.
-- Note Director - SD protocol is changed to handle new tape
- information (Fileset, JobType, JobLevel).
-- Create config.out that contains a summary of ./configure
- to see what you previously configured: "cat config.out"
-- Implemented GZIP compression. Added addition syntax to
- Include { } resource to permit setting of any GZIP compression
- level:
- compression=GZIP
- compression=GZIP1
- ...
- compression=GZIP9
-
- Level 1 is minimum compression and level 9 is maximum. Using just
- GZIP gives the default (level 6).
-- Enhanced the tape format to include the unique Job name, FileSetName,
- JobType, and JobLevel in the Start/End of Session records. The code
- detects that tape level difference and acts accordingly. You can
- add data in the new format to old tapes.
-- Fixed an incorrect display message in the prune command.
-- Began implementation of Verify Volume and Verify Data.
-- Cleaned up File daemon restore.c a bit ensuring that termination
- cleanup is done and all possible Emsgs are converted to Jmsgs.
-- Modify bls.c to use common setup routines. This reduced the big
- code duplication that creeped in when I added different listing
- options. Also, changing tapes is now handled uniformily in a subroutine.
-
-===========================================================================
-2002-05-27 Release 1.20
-- Started documenting Catalog Pruning and Recycling.
- Added catmaintenance.html and recycling.html
-- Fixed the query command bug.
-- Implemented PID files to prevent two copies of Bacula
- from running at the same time. Be sure you --with-pid-dir
- points to a working directory.
-- Modified ASSERT() to cause a segmentation violation. This
- permits a core dump.
-- Worked on gnome-console. It paints better, it tells you if it
- is ready to accept a command or processing one, and it is
- almost entirely GTK+ (rather than GNOME, I'm removing GNOME
- a bit at a time).
-- Limit to 100 the number of tape labeling errors in a single Job.
-- Add some additional ASSERT()s to the database routines. I don't
- like ASSERTs but they do catch bugs.
-- Tested and debugged recycling of Volumes. Needed to change
- the Director-SD protocol slightly.
-- Removed the experimental SIGHUP in the Director as it is a
- potential source of errors.
-- Added Level, Pool, Messages, and Storage keyword/value scanning
- to the Schedule Run record.
-- Improved printing of Schedule resources with "show schedules"
-- Do not autoprune Jobs/Files if the Job errs.
-- Updated newvol() to pass back the updated Media record.
-- Fixed the "update pool" command, which was broken during a much
- earlier code reorganization.
-- Improved a few of the pruning messages.
-- Removed readline inclusions from gnome-console (hang over from console).
-- Make Jmsg use daemon message handler if no message handler is defined.
- This is always the case in the SD and FD.
-- Started removing __PROTO(). With C++ prototypes are manditory, so why
- keep around legacy code.
-- Added a good deal of message internationalization -- more to be done.
-- Move cached Path into mdb structure and use POOLMEM.
-- Fix verify bug introduced last update causing incorrect diffs
- by turning off autopruning.
-- Started adding code to distinguish Errors from Fatal Errors.
-- Errors are now counted in message.c for a Job.
-- More POOLMEM cleanups.
-- Implemented Automatic pruning.
-- Implemented Automatic recycling of Volumes.
-- Added PruneJobs/Files/Volumes=yes or no to Job resource. If set,
- it forces the specified pruning.
-- Modified rwlock to accept multiple nested write lock
- requests.
-- Modified the cats directory to use the new rwlock mechanism
- in place of P() and V().
-- Defined db_lock(mdb) and db_unlock(mdb). They are in effect
- transaction locks.
-- Add CVS Id's to most files.
-- Made first cut at AutoPrune
-- Added new autoprune file that is called at the end of
- each Job. It then decides when and what to prune and
- calls the UA prune routines.
-- Modified Run (in Schedule resource) to permit overrides of
- Level, Pool, Storage, and Messages. (not tested).
-- Added more POOLMEM in place of char.
-- Implemented daemon pid files. This prevents multiple
- daemons from running simultaneously. You can run multiple
- daemons if they listen on different ports.
-- Documented the Schedule resource a bit better.
-- Began gently adding a POOLMEM type (perviously void).
- For the moment it is a #define to char, but long term
- it should be its own typedef.
-- Corrected a bit of spacing on the status bar of gnome-console
-- Added Admin and Archive Job types.
-- Implemented multiple Messages resources. Each daemon has
- its own message resource, which defaults if not defined.
- Jobs may now have different message handlers.
-- Cleaned up a bit of duplicate code in backup, verify, and
- restore by creating appropriate subroutines in job.c
-- Added Type, Client, FileSet, and Level resource record
- definitions to the Director. These can be used in place
- of the Backup = ..., Verify = ..., ... commands. This needs
- documenting.
-- Corrected an incorrect message in the prune code and added
- the number of Files pruned in the message.
-- Corrected several paint problems with gnome-console.
-- Added a bit of printout in signal handler during traceback.
-- Cleaned up most of sm_check() to be turned on/off by define
- in version.h
-
-===========================================================================
-2002-05-10 Release 1.19
-- Allow the user to select a new period for pruning.
-- Lots of additions to the manual -- prune and purge
- commands documented.
-- Applied Phil's configure.in fix for --prefix, ...
-- Fixed bug found by Phil (patch supplied) in updating
- MD5 signatures (revert to 32 bit FileId, move "static"
- variables into JCR) (catreq.c fd-cmds.c).
-- Reverted to using INTEGER for FileId in make_sql_tables
- due to a bug in MySQL.
-- Change editing code to %d for FileId.
-- Remove sqlite in make distclean in cats directory.
-- Remove console.conf in console during make distclean.
-- Remove gnome-console.conf during make distclean.
-- Remove bacula-dir.conf during make distclean.
-- Set default level when using Console if none specified.
- Bug reported by Phil.
-- A simple . command from Console is ignored.
-- Change program named from filed to bacual-fd in winmain.cpp
-- Change default config file for Win32 in winmain.cpp
-- Free namebuf on early return from find_one.c. Bug reported by Phil.
-- Modify testfind.c to dump orphaned buffers.
-- Removed terabytes from parse_conf.c because of problems with
- older gcc compilers.
-- Turn off gnome options in gnome-console by constructing empty argv.
-- Fixes to Verify when only MD5 differs.
-- Insert 0 for MD5 as default rather than space.
-- Allow .messages "transparent" command while reading input
- in UserAgent server.
-- In dird/verify.c ensure that correct filename is printed if only
- the MD5 differs. Minor reindenting caused large diff.
-- Delete unused code from backup.c
-- In filed/verify.c ensure that same algorithm as backup.c is used
- to pass back MD5 signatures -- especially for directories and files
- that cannot be read. Change dummy filename from X to *MD5-id*.
- This dummy value should never be printed.
-- Make gnome-console poll Director every 5 seconds for output.
- This means that queued up messages are displayed at reasonable
- intervals. Delete some unused code hanging around from the tty
- console program.
-- Begin implementation of prune commands.
-- Add command line history to gnome-console. Not yet saved across sessions.
-- Fixed some broken URLs in the manual.
-- Added JobId type.
-- Wrote first cut of "prune files" and "prune jobs".
-- Added command line history to gnome-console 2500 lines max.
-- Widened store_time() and associated variables to 64 bits using
- new btime_t definition.
-- Removed GNOME about box and replaced it with
- a somewhat crude Gtk+ about box in the gnome-console.
-- Widened StartDay in the Job DB record to be 64 bits.
-- Changed edit_uint_ to edit_uint64_ everywhere. Much more
- descriptive of what is done.
-- Removed most llds and replaced them with %s and edit_uint64.
- This makes the code a bit easier to read for beginners.
-- Added a btime_t typedef which is 64 bits wide.
-- Added most of the code needed to do Purge and Prune of
- database. Not yet tested. Please do not use.
-- Additional config options for Console.
-- Started adding code for Automatic Recycling of Volumes.
-- Allow arbitrary length filenames in Verify code.
-- Fix incorrect filename in Verify code.
-- Significant enhancement to number scanning in config parser.
-- Requires initializing MySQL tables, or applying cats/alter.sql
- to modify Media table.
-- Modified Makefile to printer a much more visible
- message if the make ends in error.
-- Added the Purge value to the VolStatus in the Media table.
- This value is set if the Volume is purged.
-- Enhanced the db_delete_media_record() routine to delete
- all associated records in the database.
-- Modified Console to always write to the variable "output"
- rather than stdout. This will permit directing output to a file.
-- Enhanced the Console configuration file to have a Console
- resource. This will allow us to add an rcfile and history file.
-- Modified Find_next_vol in catreq.c to search for "Recycle"
- volumes if there are none marked Append. Also made Get_Vol_info
- return the VolStatus to the Storage daemon.
-- Allow upper/lower case match on job level names.
-- Added another warning message to the Console "delete media" command.
-- Corrected a number of FileId types from uint64_t to FileId_t in
- ua_retention.c.
-- In ua server close database before freeing JCR (because pointer is
- kept in ua and jcr structures).
-- parse all numbers as doubles. Do lots of checking for valid number
- formats. Allow numbers in scientific form (e.g. 1.5e+10).
-- Remove terabyte modifier as it doesn't work in some compilers.
-- Fix bug in handling some modifiers.
-- Added all necessary code for Recycle to Storage daemon. A Volume
- marked Recycle will now be overwritten.
-- Filled out the prune command a bit and did some testing.
-- Make console accept redirected input.
-- Altered the Table definitions to include Recycle,
- FileRetention, JobRetention, and AutoPrune.
-- Widened StartDay to 64 bits.
-- Use JobId_t in more places.
-- Added the new table fields to the database record definitions.
-- Changed Recycle from string to a binary quantity.
-- Added a Version table with a VersionId to detect.
- future changes in the database. This should prevent
- a Bacula from working with a database that is not in sync.
-- Modify Console to accept input from a file. This will permit
- the .read command and allow reading a .rc file.
-- Added new retention and recycle variables to the Director's configuration.
-- The UA subroutines or commands can now be called from core
- code because the output routines detect the absence of a
- UA socket and direct output to the Job.
-- Added a verbose flage to the ua packet to permit reduction of
- output while running a UA command (prune) from a Job.
-- Did a fair amount of work on the prune command. Prune Volume now works.
-- Purge Volume now works.
-- Made last changes for integrating prune and purge commands.
-- Add -ltermcap to CONS_LIBS when readline is configured.
- More work to be done to search for termcap.
-- Added cats/drop_sqlite_tables.in, which will delete the SQLite database.
-- Got CWEB working so that we can compile filesys.w and immortal.w
-- Modified depkgs to include cweb.
-- Note, CWEB is not yet used by the core Bacula code.
-- Made cats/alter.sql, which alters an old database to bring it
- up to the new format. This only works with MySQL since SQLite does
- not have the ALTER SQL command.
-- Changed the old StartDay field in the db to be JobTDate, which is
- the latest time/date in widened Unix time format that the Job ran.
- This value is used when doing pruning.
-- Added code in cats/sql.c to verify that the database internal version
- corresponds to the db version compiled in Bacula. It is set to 1 currently.
-- Lots of changes to cats to bring the SQL up to date with the new
- retention period changes.
-- Added Console command code to permit changing a Volume's retention period.
-- Removed old code that used date_encode() and replaced it with widened
- Unix time().
-- Started modifying Message resource scanner so that we can have multiple
- message resources. Much more work to be done.
-- Moved scanning for time into new library routine string_to_btime().
-
-===========================================================================
-2002-04-22 Release 1.18
-- Applied Phil's configure.in fix for --prefix, ...
-- Fixed bug found by Phil (patch supplied) in updating
- MD5 signatures (revert to 32 bit FileId, move "static"
- variables into JCR) (catreq.c fd-cmds.c).
-- Reverted to using INTEGER for FileId in make_sql_tables
- due to a bug in MySQL.
-- Change editing code to %d for FileId.
-- Remove sqlite in make distclean in cats directory.
-- Remove console.conf in console during make distclean
-- Remove gnome-console.conf during make distclean
-- Remove bacula-dir.conf during make distclean
-- Set default level when using Console if none specified.
- Bug reported by Phil.
-- A simple . command from Console is ignored.
-- Change program named from filed to bacual-fd in winmain.cpp
-- Change default config file for Win32 in winmain.cpp
-- Free namebuf on early return from find_one.c. Bug reported by
- Phil.
-- Modify testfind.c to dump orphaned buffers.
-- Removed terabytes from parse_conf.c because of problems with
- older gcc compilers.
-- Turn off gnome options in gnome-console by constructing empty
- argv.
-
-===========================================================================
-2002-04-18 Release 1.17 Kern Sibbald
-- Ensure that platforms Makefiles are called for clean
- and distclean.
-- Hide a lot of Makefile messages with @
-- Applied Phil's configure.in patch. Thanks.
-- Doc updates, many to clarify points brought up by Phil.
-- Applied Phil's make_mysql_tables.in patch. Thanks.
-- Made authenticate.c in dird test bnet_send status.
-- Make label a bit more friendly with extra info message.
-- Add level 200 to debug info in run command.
-- Remove old code from findlib/testfind.c so that it compiles.
-- Add two minute max wait to cram-md5 authentication. Hopefully,
- this will catch non-responding WinNT daemons.
-- Allow time and size modifiers to be upper or lower case.
-- Turn off old CYGWIN patch for pthread_cond_timedwait() bug that
- now causes File daemon hangs on WinNT.
-- Fix mount messages for restore. Previous updates to save
- broke the restore code.
-- By default write fixed block sizes rather than variable block
- sizes. My Sony DAT simply does not work (reread failures) with
- variable block sizes.
-- Data split across tapes was not being correctly restored
- (at least on DAT tapes).
-- Implement MaximumBlockSize and MinumBlockSize statements in
- Storage daemon so user can specify variable block sizes if
- desired.
-- Return error if block checksum error on read (previously
- ignored).
-- Fixed some error messages in bls, and in some cases exit(1)
- rather than ABORT. There remain ABORTs to be examined.
-- Made a local copy of tcpd.h and corrected the function
- prototype problem for C++.

-===========================================================================
-2002-04-14 First public release 1.16 Kern Sibbald
- - Many intervening changes/updates.
-
-2001-09-29 Release 1.0 Kern Sibbald
- - Fixes to problems found at John's installation.
- - See techlogs/kes25Sep01 for details
-
-2001-09-25 Release 1.0 Kern Sibbald
- - Helped John install at his site.
- He is backing up one Linux machine and
- one Win2000 machine.
-
-2001-mm-dd Many releases
- - Released internally.
-
-2000-04-09 Release 0.4 Kern Sibbald
- - Added a lot of Director configuration code. In
- part (a small part), the Director now uses the
- bacula.conf file to know what to do. There still
- remains a lot to do.
- - The file search code is now integrated into the
- MySQL database routines, and Bacula is now hooked
- into the MySQL database (if so configured). Thus
- all the database records are being created, though
- there still remains some work in getting all the
- details into the records (such as the Storage
- coordinates).
- - I've defined how Volume pools work (see manual).
- - I've defined error message handling though no code
- is yet written.
- - The following resources and records are implemented
- in the Director configuration file (bacula.conf):
-
- Director
- Name (passed to Storage daemon)
- Client
- Name, Address, Port
- Password (not yet used)
- Storage
- Name, Address, Port, Password, MediaType
- Job
- Name
- Type (not yet used)
- Backup (only one permitted)
- Client, FileSet
- Storage
- Schedule, Messages, Pool (not used)
- FileSet
- Name
- Include (options ignored)
- Exclude (no options)
- Schedule (not used)

- Name
- PoolType, MediaType (not used)
-
- - Added Storage configuration routines.
- Director
- Name, password (verified against those sent by Director)
- Storage
- Name, Address, Port (address, port must correspond to Director's values)
- Password, MediaType
- Device
- Name, MediaType (must correspond to those sent by Director)
- Archive Device (defines device name)
-
-
-2000-03-10 Release 0.3 Kern Sibbald
- - Implemented new base64 encoding for attributes.
- This eliminates some of the error messages in the
- sprintfs on the Solaris due to different stat() sizes.
- - Implemented the first cut of the file search routines for
- the File daemon. The exclusion lists work including wild
- cards. There is a lot of work to be done, but the basic
- structure is now in place (wild cards do not yet work for
- the include).
- - Completed writing the memory pool code. Now I must
- implement it in the daemons.
- - Modified the bacula start/stop script so that it has a
- better chance of working on SGI and Solaris.
- - The catalog code has not been converted to the new file
- search code.
-
-2000-03-06 Release 0.2 Kern Sibbald
- - Integrated John's fixes.
- - Made Makefiles self configuring when Makefile.in is changed.
- - Added a runit script in the top level that runs bacula
- - Added a "bacula" script in the top level directory that
- starts and stops the File daemon and the Storage daemon.
-
-2000-03-03 Release 0.1 Kern Sibbald
- - Basic Director, File, and Storage daemons.
- Standalone Catalog services using MySQL
-2000-01-22 Kern Sibbald
- * Setup basic file structure with ./configure
+12Nov06
+kes Change error message 'illegal' to 'invalid' -- bug #707
+kes Add rather primitive device resource deadlock detection in
+ the job queue handler. It detects the same read and write device
+ for migration and cancels the job.
+kes Start adding a unique_dbid_hander() routine in migration to avoid
+ duplicate mediaids and duplicate jobids.
+kes Add patch from bug #708 to permit relative paths such as ../xxx
+ in the restore tree routine.
+kes Add Eric Bollengier's patch to reduce locking time in the SD after
+ despooling, and thus many jobs finish faster.
+kes Correct locking order of reservations lock and device mutex in
+ reserve.c -- this should correct Arno's deadlock that occurred
+ when doing mount/unmount at the same time a job is reserving a
+ drive.
+05Nov06
+rbn Fixed problems with encryption when combined with compression
+ or sparse files. Unfortunately this means that all previous
+ encrypted backups can't be restored.
+rbn Fixed problem in bfgets with Windows and Mac end of lines.
+rbn Fixed bug in Windows version of close_bpipe() that cause programs
+ like bsmtp() to hang waiting for the pipe to be closed. Fixed
+ binary file type problems in open_bpipe().
+rbn Fixed a number of bugs in the mysql DB scripts.
+03Nov06
+ebl Fix broken runscript on director. (RunBefore, RunAfter)
+ebl Use M_ERROR instead of M_FATAL in runscript.c
+31Oct06
+ebl Small fix src/dird/job.c to add JobErrors count to catalog.
+rbn Ignore UTF-8 marker at the start of .conf files.
+rbn Add stab2cv to 3rd party dependencies. This is a utility I
+ wrote that is licensed under the GPL and available on SourceForge.
+ It converts the stab debugging info generated by gcc into Codeview
+ format. Currently it just translates function names to global
+ symbols. This is sufficient to get reasonable stack traces from
+ Dr Watson and to look at minidumps.
+rbn Fix bug # 699 - winbacula client crashes whilerunning bat scripts.
+rbn Enable Windows XP look and feel for the tray icons and wx-console.
+rbn Add Windows specific FileSet example to bacula-dir.conf.
+rbn Reorganize Start menu so that documentation and configuration are
+ in subfolders.
+21Oct06
+rbn Change daemons and utilities so that if -c is omitted from the
+ command line AND there is no configuration file in the current
+ directory then the 'standard' configuration file (eg
+ /etc/bacula/bacula-*.conf) will be used. If the argument to -c
+ doesn't contain any path separators AND there is no configuration
+ file by that name in the current directory then the 'standard'
+ configuration file directory will be searched for a file by that
+ name.
+rbn Fixed restore on Windows so that backslashes as path separators works.
+rbn Add missing query.sql file to Windows installer.
+rbn Fixed Windows versions of catalog backup scripts.
+20Oct06
+kes Fix optional files in Makefile.in of src/filed that caused
+ a syntax error when using no optional files.
+15Oct06
+lf Fix a cosmetic bug in filed.c that caused spurious OpenSSL error
+ messages; there is no reason to attempt to load a private key.
+ from master key files.
+
+Version 1.39.26 released:
+12Oct06
+kes Apply the three patches from Richard Mortimer.
+ bacula-reposition.patch, bacula-tape-reopen.patch, and
+ bacula-eod.patch. This corrects tape positioning on older devices,
+ and also a problem with btape.
+kes Apply fix from bug report #696 where writing to a FIFO does not
+ work due to a dumb typo.
+kes Unlock the tape door before the file descriptor is released. This
+ should fix lots of somewhat subtle failures when using an autochanger.
+11Oct06
+kes Correct mtx-changer bug that I introduced in a recent commit, and
+ pointed out by Robert Nelson -- thanks.
+rbn Fix Windows' daemons so that messages print to stdout if not
+ running as a service.
+rbn Add daemon name to trace file name (eg bacula-dir.trace).
+rbn Fix environment variable expansion in directory names on Windows.
+rbn Fix autochanger support in fill command.
+rbn Update SQL scripts to match Unix versions.
+rbn Fix daemon usage displays.
+rbn Cleanup bacula-dir.conf template.
+rbn Install openssl.cnf so that the openssl.exe installed in the
+ Bacula\bin directory can be used to generate keys and
+ certificates for TLS and encryption.
+rbn Fix cleanup of spool files on Windows.
+rbn Remove /silent option from daemons on Windows. The new default
+ is the same as the old /silent. To enable the message boxes that
+ previously were suppressed by /silent you must add /debug instead.
+ NOTE: As a result of this change, the first time you upgrade from
+ a previous version of 1.39.x you will receive the message
+ boxes when the remove of the old services succeeds. This
+ is the same behaviour as when migrating from a version prior
+ to 1.39.0.
+ However, going forward, these message boxes will not appear on
+ upgrades or new installs.
+rbn Add new /debug option. This option enables the message boxes that
+ previously were suppressed by the /silent option. In addition the
+ daemons running as services will open a console window if this
+ option is used.
+rbn Fix bug with service not being removed on migrated installs. This
+ should correct those cases where the file daemon install was failing
+ when upgrading from versions prior to 1.39.x.
+
+08Oct06
+kes Turn on heap reporting in Dir with zero debug level.
+kes Send a message to the sys log when Bacula forces a SEG FAULT, and
+ send the same message to stdout.
+07Oct06
+kes Begin work on new GUI "console".
+kes Make configure look in non-standard MySQL library directory
+ for Solaris.
+kes Make mtx-changer automatically configure the autochanger wait
+ procedure for Solaris, FreeBSD, and Linux. Previously, only Linux
+ was implemented.
+kes Correct drop_sqlite_tables.in script to not delete the database.
+kes When writing to a log file, close and reopen the file descriptor
+ if there is an error writing the file.
+kes Modify the autochanger loaded?, load, and unload commands to print
+ the full text of any mtx output if there is an error. Helps to
+ ease diagnosis of autochanger problems.
+kes Correct a few Win32 errno returns in the VSS code so that hopefully
+ a resonable Win32 error message will be printed.
+kes Convert a few strcat()... to bstrncat() in the Win32 code.
+06Oct06
+rbn Added Windows version of bsmtp.
+rbn Fixed path search for Windows so that Bacula\bin is automatically
+ searched for programs and scripts.
+rbn Fixed bugs in mtx-changer.cmd and made template bacula-sd.conf
+ Windows specific.
+
+Version 1.39.24 beta released:
+02Oct06
+rbn Fix restore problem with c:\ prefix bug #676.
+rbn Verify that drive letter is valid on restore.
+rbn Fix re-open() options for tape.
+kes Apply dvd find volume patch from Richard Mortimer.
+kes Eliminate the dvd specific mount routines using only the
+ dev->mount/unmount.
+kes Make update_free_space a method of DEVICE and rename
+ update_freespace.
+01Oct06
+kes Require a messages command acl to be able to receive messages
+ in a console.
+kes Add console, system, and scan job types in util.c.
+28Sep06
+kes Print the Volume purged message only for real jobs to keep
+ from cluttering up the daemon messages.
+kes Lock the tape drive door while Bacula is using the device.
+kes Add back the 'No Jobs running' message to FD and SD status because
+ my regression script depends on it, and I'm too lazy to change the
+ scripts.
+kes Start using structure assignments (not too happy about it ...).
+kes Fix a bug in the tools Makefile that broke on Solaris.
+kes Unload any autochanger drive during a 'release' command.
+26Sep06
+kes Enhance error message when restoring without bootstrap file.
+kes Check restored size only for regular files.
+kes Store Python job level in job record in Dir.
+kes Add back code to open tape device nonblocking, but if rewind fails
+ release file descriptor.
+kes Modify acquire.c to first try autoloading the device. Also, ask operator
+ to mount tape if drive cannot be opened.
+rbn Made Windows service tray status windows resizable.
+rbn Fixed horizontal scrolling of text in status window.
+rbn Preserve horizontal and vertical scroll position while
+ updating. This prevents the display being reset to the
+ top line every 5 seconds.
+rbn Fix Windows cross-compile compatibilty problems with
+ *nix variants such as OS X without the zic command.
+rbn Eliminate dependency on man2html.
+25Sep06
+kes Update src/win32/dll/bacula.def for change in BPIPE definition for
+ Win32 build.
+kes Fix a compiler warning in compat.cpp
+kes Change strcpy to bstrncpy in compat.cpp
+kes Remove some broken code in bdb_list.c
+kes Fix, hopefully the last, ACL problem in the restore command.
+kes Update the README.mingw32
+kes Add new version of upgrade-win32-client.txt to examples directory.
+ Submitted by Michel Meyers.
+kes Print an INFO message in the job report when a Volume is marked Purged.
+rbn Fixed handling of external program and script execution
+ so that the format of the command line is more flexible.
+ Now executable path names containing spaces are translated
+ to the equivalent short name automatically. The result is
+ passed to cmd.exe with the quotes removed.
+24Sep06
+kes Apply the recycle patch from Richard Mortimer.
+kes Convert a few if statements in dev.c to switch statements.
+kes Start using print_errmsg instead of bstrerror().
+kes Print a job message in SD when a job is marked to be canceled.
+23Sep06
+kes All code added back. Fixed block.c read/write to loop only 3
+ times. This apparently keeps the OS from crashing (at least
+ most of the time).
+kes The kernel bug still persists. Backup something then immediately
+ do a bscan on the same tape, and the kernel will crash.
+kes Simplifed tape open(). It no longer uses nonblocking mode, which
+ means that opening with no tape loaded will probably take at least
+ 6 minutes before an error is reported.
+kes Do not use MTSETDRVBUFFER if not running as root. Do a MTRESET
+ when doing set_os_device_parameters.
+kes Report open error in mount.c
+kes Remove all .exe files from the installer directory on make clean.
+20Sep06
+kes Start adding back removed code.
+kes Back out a number of changes because backups to tape crash my
+ system.
+kes Remove the inetd code from the File daemon.
+18Sep06
+kes Add -c option to pg_dump so that it initializes tables when
+ restored.
+kes Fix FirstWritten time on Volume to be obtained from SD so that
+ it is the actual time the volume was first written.
+kes Minor Makefile changes.
+kes Handle EBUSY during read(). Improve how EBUSY is handled in write().
+ebl Add yes keyword to prune/purge command
+16Sep06
+kes Correct a test in block.c that prevented restore of a DVD from
+ looking at the last part in the spool directory.
+kes Make some error messages clearer mostly by using the word DVD
+ in the message. Improve infor message in read_record for DVDs.
+kes Remove DVD kludges in dircmd.c label/relabel.
+kes Move the dvd relabel code from dircmd.c into
+ write_new_volume_label_to_dvd() adding a relabel argument.
+kes Rewrite the truncate_dvd() code to be much simpler and
+ more logical. First blow away any spool part, then create a
+ new empty part and write to the DVD.
+kes Rewrite the can_write_on_non_blank_dvd() code making it
+ only ensure that no valid data is on the DVD -- i.e. it
+ can be overwritten.
+15Sep06
+kes Minor Makefile fixes.
+kes Put attach_dcr_to_dev in a subroutine.
+kes Make attaching/detaching to/from a device use a flag and
+ only detach if actually attached.
+kes Add dvd-simulator.in to scripts directory and add to configure.
+kes Fix code in acquire.c that checks fd != 0 to use dev->is_open().
+ This could be a cause of a number of drive reservation problems.
+ Note, this code is now in attach_dcr_to_dev().
+kes Suppress doing Volume updates if it is a system job. This should
+ prevent the DVD label blocking.
+kes Clear the freespace ok flag in a couple of strategic places.
+14Sep06
+kes Put removing zero sized spool part file in subroutine and
+ call from release_device().
+kes Add Richard's patch for relabel to dircmd.c, but save and restore
+ dev Volume name.
+kes Rework a lot of subroutines in dev.c to take dcr as an
+ argument. This is done to eliminate the usage of attached_dcrs
+ in lseek().
+kes Change truncated_dvd to blank_dvd, which seems more suitable.
+kes Apply most of Richard Mortimer's truncate patch.
+kes Create lseek() method for DEVICE that takes dcr as an
+ argument. This is to eliminate the use of attached_dcrs in
+ lseek(). The calls to lseek_dev() must still be changed.
+13Sep06
+kes Apply Richard Mortimer's patches for printing an error
+ message in btape when a DVD is used, and to initialize traceback.
+kes Added error message to btape when trying to access a file.
+kes Move prototype of update_slots() to protos.h.
+12Sep06
+kes Add JobErrors, JobFiles, SDJobFiles, SDJobErrors, SDJobStatus,
+ and FDJobStatus to the Director Python variables.
+kes Make sure valid argument passed to str_to_utime() where Arno
+ had a seg fault.
+kes Apply Richard Mortimer's patch for bcopy, bextract, and bscan.
+ I.e. part of two different patches.
+11Sep06
+kes Modify disk changer to simulate some of the error conditions
+ of mtx-changer.
+kes Make sure the close() call in the SD tools is just before the
+ getchar() call.
+kes Implement dir_get_volume_info() in bls using the patch from
+ Richard Mortimer but call find_num_dvd_parts().
+kes Implement find_num_dvd_parts() that mounts and scans a DVD
+ and counts the parts.
+kes Move the omode code in open_dvd() up so that the cannot
+ write on blank disk can check can be bypassed for read mode.
+ Not yet implemented.
+10Sep06
+kes Disable normal data spooling for DVD writing which uses
+ a different spooling mechanism.
+kes Apply patch from Richard Mortimer to ensure that the number
+ of DVD parts is correctly updated.
+rbn Save installer details log in the Bacula directory as
+ install.log.
+rbn Add installer generation of client and storage templates
+ suitable for @inclusion on the director.
+rbn Mark previously installed components for Win32 read-only since
+ deselection doesn't do anything.
+
+Version 1.39.22 beta released:
+08Sep06
+kes Fix logic error in handling error return from mtx-changer
+ script.
+kes Make status from SD aware of -1 (unknown) Slot status.
+kes At Eric's suggestion make both the 'slots' and 'drive' commands
+ to the Storage daemon work even if the drive is busy.
+kes Make two separate Win32 menu links for starting bconsole and
+ wx-console in winbacula.nsi
+kes Apply DVD part_spooled patch from Richard Mortimer
+ richm@oldelvet.org.uk
+kes Put installer/Readme.txt into Win32 EOL format for Notebook.
+rbn Fixed problems migrating settings from previous releases in
+ Win32 installer. Add Readme.txt with an option to show it on
+ the installer Finish page.
+07Sep06
+kes Use get_catalog_resource() to open catalog database
+ to ensure that ACLs are respected and that user is
+ correctly prompted for database.
+kes Integrate multiple console/director patch from
+ Carsten Paeth calle@calle.in-berlin.de
+ebl Add character substitution in Job/JobDefs WriteBootStrap.
+ You can use now 'WriteBootStrap = '/path/%c_%n.bsr''
+kes Apply patch supplied in bug #656 to pass priority field
+ in the run dialog to the Director in gnome console
+kes Restore DCR after VOL_NAME_ERROR in mount.c. Hopefully
+ this will fix bug #627 where Bacula eventually gets
+ confused about what Volume it wants.
+kes Add a new close_part() class in the SD to save the device
+ state around open/close_part/open for DVD writing. This
+ should fix the num_dvd_parts getting zeroed as reported by
+ Richard Mortimer.
+kes Apply patch from Richard Mortimer that correct edit code
+ for debug output of st_size.
+ebl Add support of encrypted data stream to bscan.
+ display data_len instead of data content (may be binary)
+06Sep06
+kes Add dev->close() in dir_ask_sysop_to_mount_volume() in
+ bcopy. Fixes bug #669 reported by Eric.
+kes Fix incorrect number of arguments in SQL statement in
+ sql_get.c as reported by Eric.
+kes Manual updates.
+kes Update examples directory.
+kes Remove unused variable in winservice.cpp
+kes Make Win32 make command build installer.
+rbn Add new Install Type page, used to select between Automatic
+ and Custom installs. Automatic installs only prompt for
+ configuration items that can't be reasonably defaulted.
+rbn Added Bacula logo to page headers.
+rbn Added Upgrade support
+ - Configuration and component selection are migrated from
+ pre-1.39 installs.
+ - Configuration of upgraded components is preserved and
+ not prompted for
+ - Configuration of new components is handled according to
+ the Automatic / Custom selection.
+ - Component selection is defaulted to previously selected
+ components.
+rbn Installation of Server components is disabled on
+ Windows 95, 98 and ME.
+rbn Added URLs for support, info and upgrades to Bacula entry
+ in Add/Remove Programs.
+rbn Added Version info to Bacula entry in Add/Remove Programs.
+04Sep06
+kes Correct dvd code that breaks tape labeling.
+kes Implement Enabled on update slots.
+02Sep06
+kes When doing a label, pass the VolBytes back to the Director,
+ which puts it in the catalog.
+kes Print an error message if the user attempts to prune an
+ archived Volume.
+kes Need to start using %ld when sscanfing 32 bit values.
+kes Update the free
+kes Correct the counting of VolCatBytes for DVDs.
+kes Add code to mount.c to require that VolCatBytes corresponds to
+ what is actually found when doing an append.
+kes Update freespace only after writing on the DVD.
+kes Remove code that blows away the current part in the spool file.
+01Sep06
+kes Apply new dvd-handler patch from Richard Mortimer.
+kes Tweak so that debug level 20 shows only DVD commands.
+kes Correct spooled_part flag in dev.c close() so that it is cleared
+ when the spool file is deleted or does not exist.
+kes Print part number in read_records when eof hit (restore).
+rbn Installer default changed to start services on new install.
+31Aug06
+kes Make find with no args in tree restore return error rather than
+ stopping the selection. Fixes bug #665
+kes Rework DVD writing to ensure that the last part is written
+ on open_next_part when dealing with a spool file.
+kes Correct the lseek_dev() routine to handle end point correctly
+ (bug introduced by me).
+kes Allow part number to exceed num_dvd_parts in lseek_dev().
+rbn Change make_session_key on Windows to use WIN32 APIs to produce
+ a better seed.
+rbn Add new tool scsilist.exe which displays the changer, tape and
+ CD/DVD (1394, SCSI, SATA, ATAPI) devices and the information required
+ to add them to bacula-sd.conf.
+30Aug06
+kes Apply dvd-handler patch from Richard Mortimer.
+kes Apply dvd error check patch from Richard Mortimer.
+kes Apply bpipe race patch from Richard Mortimer.
+kes Rework how DVD labels are handled and set append only
+ when part > num_dvd_parts.
+27Aug06
+kes Rework many features of DVD writing and reading. Added many error
+ messages. Most importantly changed part to represent the current
+ part number base zero. This makes current DVD writing incompatible
+ with previous version.
+26Aug06
+kes Add host:port to connect failure messages to FD and SD from Dir.
+kes Add WhereACL to console ACL list. If nothing is specified, only
+ the default is permitted for restore. Otherwise, *all* allows any
+ path, or you can specify permitted paths. This should allow control
+ over where users can restore files. This is untested.
+kes Modified message to add a ? (as in loaded?) when querying the autochanger
+ for what Slot is loaded.
+kes Fixed the use of Slot, so that is more correctly maintained, thus
+ eliminating unneeded duplicate calls to determine what Slot is loaded.
+25Aug06
+kes Install man pages with 'make install'
+kes wx-console crashes because of differences between Bacula and wxWidgets
+ malloc()/free(). Tweak wx-console to use bmalloc()/bfree() for Bacula
+ calls.
+kes correct improper indenting in wx-console/console_conf.c
+kes update wx-console header copyrights
+kes Fix bug #658 where wx-console mangles file/directory names containing
+ commas.
+24Aug06
+kes Add Media.Enabled flag to client backups for dotcmds.c
+kes Enforce Media.Enabled=1 for a current restore to work.
+kes Require restore case 3 to have sqlquery permission to work.
+kes Remove obsolete del_MAC sql command.
+kes Ensure that bscan creates Volumes with Enabled=1.
+
+Version 1.39.20 beta released:
+22Aug06
+kes Correct missing Client table reference in SQL pointed out by
+ Marc.
+21Aug06
+kes Fix Win32 build (new entrypoint, start baculafd).
+20Aug06
+kes Add -n option to bconsole to turn off conio.
+kes Print JobIds to be migrated in Job Report.
+kes Add additional user supplied notes to the messages part of
+ bacula-dir.conf concerning multiple email addresses.
+kes Fix an incorrect comment pointed out by a user in dvd_handler.in
+kes Add more recent Feature requests to Projects file.
+19Aug06
+kes Apply Maritn's fix to src/win32/Makefile.
+kes Apply Martin's fix to configure.in for pthreads on FreeBSD 4.x
+kes Implement pruning for Migration and migrated jobs.
+kes Implement PoolOccupancy migration.
+kes Implement PoolTime migration.
+16Aug06
+kes If doing a mount, look for a slot, and if specified pass it to
+ the SD so that it can load the autochanger.
+kes Return DVD=1 flag if a label command is done to a DVD. This
+ permits setting VolParts to 1.
+kes Apply DVD patch from Richard Mortimer <richm@oldelvet.org.uk>, but
+ rework ua_label code based on DVD media type to use DVD flag returned.
+15Aug06
+kes Eliminate some compile warnings in dird_conf.c
+kes Format the bytes field in the terminated jobs part of the status
+ command for the three daemons with suffixes to reduce print size
+ of backup bytes. Suggested by a user.
+kes When not descending into a directory, print the File= name that
+ triggered it -- makes why not descending a bit clearer.
+kes Do not unload autochanger when doing a list command -- basic code
+ from Eric Bollengier.
+12Aug06
+rbn Reworked the MinGW32 build-dependencies script, it has been renamed
+ to build-depkgs-mingw32. It now handles two options -h to display
+ help and -C to reextract the source and apply the patches. The -C
+ option is useful for updating the source after new patches are
+ released.
+rbn Moved the 3rd party package URLs to a separate file External-mingw32.
+ This allows updating to new versions without having to modify the
+ script and makes it easier to figure out which packages and which
+ versions are used.
+rbn Added a new script build-depkgs-msvc.cmd which does the same thing
+ as build-depkgs-mingw32 except they are built using Microsoft Visual C
+ and placed in the depkgs-msvc directory. There is also an
+ External-msvc file to describe the packages.
+08Aug06
+rbn Fix Windows cross-compile compatibilty problems with FreeBSD.
+07Aug06
+kes Fix bug #462 incorrect error message printed when client script called
+ from File= was not found.
+kes Fix bug #558 (waiting for feedback) where Bacula needs too much time to
+ do a rewind on Solaris when no tape is in the drive (Solaris does not
+ have the detailed errno found on Linux). Added Solaris specific code.
+ Note, this may apply to other OSes as well.
+06Aug06
+kes Defined BUILDING_CATS in src/cats/cats.h so that *nix builds.
+dsb Updated rpm spec for 1.39 - updatedb 9 to 10, add new man pages,
+ fix bug 648 - update sqlite script patches, lock out gnome2console
+ builds for platforms with gtk+ < 2.4.
+ Updated build_rpm.sh - add remote source directory, add switch for
+ signing, refine file names.
+ Updated spec file again for Mandriva build as they have this curious
+ custom of silently converting all manpages to bzip2 format just before
+ the final packaging step.
+05Aug06
+rbn Fixed the Windows Makefiles so that they won't accidentally try and
+ pickup binaries for the Unix build. This allows both the Unix
+ build and the Windows build to be built in the same tree without
+ interfering with each other.
+rbn Fixed error handling and cleaned up mtx-changer.cmd.
+rbn Added the rest of the database scripts. These are installed but are
+ not yet edited for variable replacement.
+rbn Broke out the cats functionality from bacula.dll and put into new
+ separate dlls for each database type. At installation time the
+ correct one is copied to bacula_cats.dll.
+rbn Eliminate the need to install the mysql.dll on client only builds.
+rbn Moved dird/sql_cmds.c into the cats directory so all the database
+ specific #ifdefs were in the cats directory.
+rbn Added a new sql_cmds.h with all the declarations for the variables
+ exported from sql_cmds.c.
+rbn Moved catalog_db[] from lib/message.c to a new routine db_get_type()
+ which is implemented in bdb.c, mysql.c, postgresql.c and sqlite.c in
+ src/cats.
+kes Correct improperly formatted list command output reported by Dan.
+04Aug06
+kes Correct despool time calculation.
+03Aug06
+kes Remove previous changes to compat.cpp as they create problems.
+kes Use old style MD5 for FileSets to avoid Full saves on every Job.
+kes Attempt to fix problems with the msg_queue crashing on Solaris
+ when Bacula is terminating, but problems remain.
+kes Add WIN32_VSS to HAVES in src/Makefile.inc.in to correct VSS
+ name editing problems with too many \\?\es.
+kes Fix some Bacula source code style problems in compat.cpp.
+kes Add debug code to compat.cpp and convert non-Bacula debug code
+ to Bacula style.
+02Aug06
+kes Change the name of the technical notes file from kes-1.39 to
+ technotes-1.39. Prefix my messages with 'kes '.
+kes Allow dequeue_messages() to be called twice. Should fix bug
+ # 649.
+kes Add Job type to bscan Job information output.
+01Aug06
+kes Update copyright date in program files, and for the most part
+ put it on a #define.
+kes Implement %q in bsnprintf.c apparently I forgot it.
+31Jul06
+kes Make disk-changer sed command compatible with FreeBSD.
+kes Make a first cut at a ReleaseNotes and ChangeLog for a
+ beta release.
+kes Make make clean descend into the src/win32 directory.
+kes Fix some #ifdefing so that Solaris and FreeBSD compile
+ sys/stat.h was turned off.
+kes Use suffix editing for new transfer rate messages.
+kes Attempt to come up with a workaround which seems to be an OS
+ bug where write() returns EBUSY. IMO this should not happen.
+ It triggered in truncatebug test. The workaround retries using
+ a 100 ms wait.
+kes Eliminate a strerror() call in a class method that failed with
+ older C++ compilers.
+kes Use rm -rf rather than rmdir to delete the src/win32/release
+ directory during make clean.
+30Jul06
+kes Make bscan ignore ACL streams.
+kes Update projects files with new Feature Requests.
+kes Generate current English and French manuals and upload
+ them to the site.
+kes Update the home page to include the new British/French flags to
+ switch between translations. Work done by Alexandre Baron.
+kes Make disk-changer script print an error message if the changer
+ directory is not defined.
+kes Create a generic DB routine for getting an int (32/64 bit) from
+ the DB.
+kes Add more migration code.
+kes Add a few more files to .cvsignore here and there.
+kes Minor fixes for SD write rate and despooling rate.
+kes Turn off new test code in src/console.c
+
+Version 1.39.18
+29Jul06
+kes Incremented the version number to signify that all of Robert's code
+ for Win32 that was in the branch is now integrated into the HEAD,
+ and that Eric has submitted code that we hope will provide limited
+ backward compatibility with 1.38 file daemons (more testing to be
+ done).
+kes I rationalized a few of the names of the variables (mainly jcr names)
+ that are used during migration as keeping three different jcrs at the
+ same time clear in ones head is not easy.
+
+Version 1.39.17
+28Jul06
+eb Tweak new runscript feature to work with 1.38.x FDs.
+eb Correct crypto.c to fix segfault when restoring an encrypted stream
+ on fd which don't use rsa keys.
+eb Add yes/no English keywords on localized yes/no questions.
+27Jul06
+kes Several important commits from Robert Nelson for code cleanup and
+ Win32 build.
+kes Modify console.c so that when conio is enabled, it converts \n to
+ \n\r before outputting to the console. Hopefully this will fix
+ the problems with expect in Perl that Eric saw.
+24Jul06
+kes Change cats/sql.c to eliminate %-*s format, which I think is turned
+ off in bsnprintf.
+kes Add Comment field to llist of a volume.
+kes Allow true/false in some yes/no questions.
+kes Implement update volume enable=(on|off|true|false|archived|0|1|2)
+kes Remove a few /n's when scanning commands from another daemon. This
+ permits adding additional fields later.
+kes Modify dbcheck to handle ctl-d and to delete Log table entries.
+kes Update README.mingw
+22Jul06
+kes Tweak authentication to work with 1.38.x FDs.
+kes Tweak catalog make scripts.
+kes Fix catalog upgrade scripts so that they work.
+kes Correct despooling debug code to eliminate race condition.
+19Jul06
+kes Add additional fields as specified by Arno to LocationLog.
+kes Add comment field to the Media record.
+kes Add Time field to the Log record.
+kes Correct migration SQL (thanks to Bill Moran) so that it
+ runs with PostgreSQL also.
+kes Add spooling/despooling info in status output of SD.
+17Jul06
+kes Spend a lot of time integrating mkcdrec with the rescue disk.
+kes Add VOLMGMT message class for volume management messages (none yet).
+kes Add CATALOG as a destination. It goes into the LOG table.
+kes Implement the Log table in the DB.
+kes Implement the Location Log table in the DB (for user use).
+kes At Eric's request add a run_scripts() just after blast_data in
+ src/filed/job.c
+10Jul06
+kes Add Enabled column to Location, correct some typos in DB schemas.
+kes Correct bug I introduced into RunScripts enum.
+kes Add log table to Catalog
+kes Purge original job migrated if the migration terminates normally.
+kes Cleanup purging of files/jobs so that it is done only in a
+ single subroutine.
+kes Add new VOLMGMT message class.
+kes Add Catalog message destination (user conf code remains to be written).
+09Jul06
+kes Modify read_record and friends to properly deal with migration
+ needs.
+kes Update debug code in read_record.
+08Jul06
+ ======================= Warning ==========================
+ Separate read and write storage in Jobs in the Director. This
+ is a major rewrite of some of the low level code and hence has
+ a high probability of introducing bugs.
+ ==========================================================
+
+kes Move the job init code up to *before* the job is put into
+ the job queue (resource allocation queue). This permits the
+ job to establish whether it will read or write or do both.
+kes Add name() methods to all the resource classes.
+kes Implement separate read and write storage resource
+ allocation/deallocation in jobq.c
+
+ ======================= Warning ==========================
+ Implemented new method of getting the default Storage from the Media
+ record rather than from the MediaType for restore. As a fall
+ back, if no Storage is defined, use the MediaType. This
+ eliminates most all prompts if there are multiple MediaTypes
+ used. This is an important and fundamental change.
+ ==========================================================
+
+kes Add more detail (Storage, Device) to list of volumes printed
+ for restore.
+kes More code in migrate. In particular start multiple jobs if
+ migrating a volume.
+kes Probably overkill, but ensure that the bsr is unique even within a
+ job in FD and SD.
+kes Rework bsys.c drop() so that it now should work as expected.
+kes Update a bunch of old copyrights -kes particularly in .h files.
+kes Remove src/lib/bshm.c/h
+05Jul06
+kes Migration fixes
+04Jul06
+ ======================= Warning ==========================
+ All hash codes in the database are now kept in world
+ compatible base64 format (no = filling). This means that
+ all FileSets will be updated and if you are running
+ verify jobs, you must do an InitCatalog.
+ Authentication uses the new algorithm, but should be
+ backward compatible with 1.38.x
+ ===========================================================
+
+kes Modify the authentication routines so that the 1.39.15 Director
+ always runs with the compatible binary to base64 code (same as
+ the rest of the world). It will however detect if an SD or
+ FD is running the old code and if that is the case, will use
+ the old algorithm for authentication. However, all consoles must
+ use the compatible algorithm, and all data entered into the database
+ (all hash signatures, MD5, SHA1, ..., and all FileSet hashes) will
+ use the compatible algorithm.
+kes Rename the cram_md5 routine names to be slightly more appropriate
+ to what they are doing (challenge and respond).
+kes Robert committed his #ifdef and header cleanup.
+30Jun06
+kes Fix a compiler warning in files/backup.c
+kes Cleanup NOT NULL vs DEFAULT 0 in database creation.
+kes Tweak btape.
+kes Robert committed his low impact changes.
+kes I removed a size_t from the jcr.h definition.
+kes Update the tape regression scripts (still to be tested).
+kes Add gcc and gcc-c++ requires to srm as suggested by a user.
+kes Require done or quit to exit from in memory tree restore.
+26Jun06
+kes Write install/uninstall of new manpages. There are now a
+ pile of man pages. Some of which need a lot of work.
+
+ ======================= Warning ==========================
+ The --mandir ./configure option now points to the top level
+ man directory. The man files will be installed under
+ mandir/man8 and mandir/man1 as appropriate.
+ ==========================================================
+
+kes Add complete text of GPL to LICENSE.
+kes Implement job report that indicates where Storage and Pool
+ came from -kes with overrides and Pool storage and NextPool,
+ it is all very complicated.
+kes Create a few common subroutines for backup.c and migrate.c
+kes Eliminate warning messages from tray-monitor.c
+25Jun06
+kes Apply fix for scheduler for missing unlock_jobs().
+kes Clean out autoconf caches before rebuilding configure
+kes Fix the FreeBSD pthreads lib define updated by Dan.
+kes Add missing semicolon in src/console/console.c
+kes Add Robert's enhanced version of build-win32-cross-tools
+ as well as his patch file.
+kes Note, the new gcc options are likely to break building of
+ wx-console or the tray-monitor ...
+24Jun06
+kes Implement Robert's suggestion to suppress printing compile lines.
+kes Detect GCC correctly (I hope)
+kes If using GCC (actually g++) add the following compiler flags
+ -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti
+
+ ===================== Warning =============================
+ Turn on new bsnprintf() code. This could cause print output
+ to look different.
+ ===========================================================
+
+kes Fix crypto when not using openssl. I previously overlooked this.
+kes Eliminate crypto type punning problems by eliminating void * and
+ using uint8_t * instead.
+kes Harden authentication failure in FD by single threading errors
+ and forcing a 6 second wait.
+
+ ===================== Warning =============================
+ Removed 'Accept Any Volume' directive.
+ ===========================================================
+
+kes Major cleanup and simplification of regress using shell functions
+ (more tests to be converted to new format)
+kes Add detection of 64 bit Irix as indicated by user.
+kes Increment catalog database id from 9 to 10.
+kes Add a few of the new database fields to the various C++
+ structures.
+kes Implement code to fill in the most important new fields (e.g.
+ Media Enable).
+kes Ensure that most of the new fields are in create/get/insert/update.
+ More work to be done.
+22Jun06
+kes Update some very old licenses in src/cats.
+kes Modify the database format for handling Migration jobs:
+ Add PriorJobId, RealEndTime to Job table
+ Delete MAC table
+ Remove Stripe from JobMedia record (not used, wasting space)
+ Add ScratchPoolId, RecyclePoolId, Enabled to Media record
+ Add Cost to Location table.
+kes Delete mac_record subroutines.
+kes Add new table values to create/update/get routines as appropriate.
+kes Update the update_tables and make_tables scripts.
+kes Make a first cut in using a union where multiple pointers (actually
+ pointers to pointers) are stored.
+kes Make some changes to base64.c suggested by Robert and others and add
+ a small amount of documentation.
+kes Add some changes suggested by Peter for Solaris (bregex...)
+kes Make runscript.h always built because it needs to be pulled into
+ more places. In particular its RES was left out of a union.
+kes Renumber the enum{} list in runscript.h to avoid starting from zero.
+ This makes it slightly easier to detect uninitialized variables.
+14Jun06
+kes Remove xpg4 lib from FreeBSD build as it is no longer needed and
+ sometimes creates install problems.
+kes Change a couple of %T in strftime to %H:%M:%S as seen in Robert
+ Nelson's code. More to do.
+kes Convert a few store_bit to store_bool in filed_conf.c.
+kes DVD tweak to block.c as supplied by Uwe Muessel.
+04Jun06
+kes Modify configure.in to check for typeof().
+kes In findlib/attribs.c use typeof instead of templates if possible.
+01Jun06
+kes Implement partial error messages for src/filed/acl.c
+kes Fix return code to fail when doing update barcodes and
+ Pool resource is not found. This previously caused Volumes
+ to be labeled as cleaning tapes.
+kes Small updates to projects.
+27May06
+kes Add Eric Bollengier patch for new RunScript directive. It breaks
+ compatibility between dird and fd.
+26May06
+kes Prevent DVD code from rewriting label if the device cannot be
+ opened read/write.
+kes Used __GNUC__ to detect GNU g++ as suggested by John Goerzen to
+ fix Debian build bug.
+kes Fix Dir/SD run race in migrate.c, verify.c, and restore.c
+kes Integrate manpages contributed by Jose Luis.
+kes Update projects file.
+kes Add manpages Makefile.in to configure.in
+kes Remove installation of bacula.8 in scripts directory.
+24May06
+kes Implement patch submitted by cesarb in bug #606 to implement O_NOATIME
+ support.
+ O_NOATIME is a open() flag which makes it possible to read a file without
+ updating the inode atime (and also without the inode ctime update which
+ happens if you try to set the atime back to its previous value). It also
+ prevents a race condition when two programs are reading the same file, but
+ only one does not want to change the atime. It's most useful for backup
+ programs and file integrity checkers (and bacula can fit on both
+ categories).
+
+ Recent versions of the Linux kernel and glibc have support for it (the
+ glibc support being mostly copying the O_NOATIME definition to
+ bits/fcntl.h). If there's no support for it on the kernel, trying to use
+ it does nothing (since the kernel ignores unknown flags).
+
+ If the kernel has support for it, trying to use it either works, fails
+ silently (mostly in remote filesystems), or returns errno=EPERM (if you
+ are not either the owner of the file or root). A simple way to prevent the
+ failure is to open the file without the flag and set it later with
+ fcntl(F_SETFL), ignoring any EPERM errors.
+kes Applied patch posted by Jaime Ventura to bug #570 to correct failure
+ of restarted jobs to complete (due to a destroyed pthreads conditional
+ variable used by the message thread).
+kes Fixed bug #619 where Bacula would not restart jobs with MaxRestartTimes
+ set to zero.
+kes Apply patch from John Goerzen bug #611 to fix bad manual links in the code.
+kes Apply patch from Rudolf Cejka bug #614 to removed trailing
+ colons in query.sql file.
+kes Apply patch from Rudolf Cejka bug #613 to correct prunning of files
+ not to create orphans.
+kes Apply patch from Rudolf Cejka bug #617 to use mtime instead of ctime
+ in restore long listing.
+kes Apply patch from Rudolf Cejka bug #609 to use MarkId in verify.c instead
+ of incorrect MarkedId.
+kes Apply patch from adioso bug #616 to correct text in manual (replace
+ Director with File daemon).
+kes Rework a few of the zlib changes so that they build properly.
+
+21May06
+kes Move DIR 'run' command to SD before starting the message thread
+ as suggested by Cristopher Hull to avoid a race deadlock from
+ two threads using the bsock structure.
+kes Modify LICENSE to correct some problems pointed out by Debian.
+05May06
+kes Correct EOF with no \n lex.c problem.
+kes Tweak compat.h compat.cpp and merge with apcupsd
+kes Add additional INFO messages if autochanger cannot be used.
+
+02May06
+kes Simplify Win32 Makefile
+kes Correct count of buffers/bytes used by smartall.c
+kes Updated compat.h after porting apcupsd to MinGW.
+01May06
+kes Work on getting wx-console building on MinGW. wxWidgets now builds
+ started adding Makefile ...
+kes Moved MinGW library objects to src/win32/lib to reduce clutter.
+30Apr06
+kes Reloading a bad configuration file doesn't kill director any more.
+ Thanks to fix from Eric Bollengier.
+29Apr06
+kes Fix problem of accents with new Win32 code.
+kes Integrate Howard's VSS patch. Tweak it a bit. VSS now
+ works in the MinGW build with the exception that there
+ is a problem with accented characters -kes i.e. there is
+ some mapping problem with wide characters.
+kes The code no longer compiles with Microsoft VC++.
+28Apr06
+kes Start implementing Christopher's St.Bernard code.
+kes Add Christopher's mods for opening files.
+kes Strip \r \n from Win32 error messages (Christopher)
+kes Add more info about Win32 system if unknown (Christopher)
+kes Use bstrn(cpy, cat) routines to avoid overrun in compat.cpp
+kes Fix a number of incorrect strings marked for translation, when
+ they should not be (e.g. commands).
+kes Fix StartTime bug reported for ClientRunBeforeJob and RunBeforeJob
+ Patches supplied by user in bugs #608 and #599.
+kes Use most recent of st_ctime and st_mtime in restore tree DIR
+ listing. This fixes some problems with Win32 printing incorrect
+ values.
+kes Correct the clock shift comm time calculation between the DIR
+ and the FD. It was added rather than subtracted.
+kes Strip all backslashes in filenames to be restored on Win32
+ machines -kes the names should all be in Unix format, and if
+ there are any backslashes it is most likely due to an improper
+ FileSet definition, and the files will not otherwise be
+ restorable.
+kes Remove lib/regex.c (replaced by bregex.c).
+kes Delete src/win32/License.txt
+kes Modify installer to install LICENSE
+26Apr06
+kes Fix bug in build-win32-cross-tools script reported by Howard
+kes Implement cross compiled bconsole
+25Apr06
+kes Fix barcode test, eliminate BOOL (doesn't exist on Linux).
+kes Write first cut of README.mingw32
+kes Add back ua_label barcode fix from Rufolf Cejka.
+kes Integrate the majority of the Mingw cross-tools submission
+ made by Howard Thomson. Everything compiles, with zlib, openssl,
+ and VSS turned off. Linking needs a pthreads library ...
+23Apr06
+kes Add 'Dir Status' button to the gnome console.
+kes More work on migration.
+kes Restore non-compatible base64 coding to permit compatibility.
+kes Display heap stats in Storage daemon without debug level.
+22Apr06
+kes Integrate most of the MinGW changes -kes more to do.
+21Apr06
+kes Implement using pg_config for finding PostgreSQL files.
+ Fixes bug #600. Patch supplied by user.
+kes Remove -t option from mktemp in mtx_changer.in and use
+ working directory. Fixes bug #578.
+kes Update job start time after the any run before job so that
+ files created by the script are only backed up once. Fixes
+ bug #599.
+kes Strip trailing newline only from filenames entered in
+ the restore command when reading a file. This permits
+ the user to enter filenames with trailing spaces. Fixes
+ bug #549. The user supplied a patch that I modified slightly.
+kes Use the most recent time (st_mtime, st_ctime) in the dir
+ command in restore. This gives the user a better idea of what
+ the newest file really is. This fixes bug #574. The fix
+ was suggested by the user.
+kes Implement a compatible version of base64. This permits external
+ programs to duplicate Bacula's base64 algorithm using standard
+ routines. This fixes bugs #296, and 565. Patch submitted by
+ author of bug #565.
+ ================= Note ========================
+ Previous Signatures stored in the database are no longer
+ compatible with this. The main downside is for Verify jobs,
+ and doing an InitCatalog run will fix the problem. Also, the
+ authentication between the deamons is changed, so all daemons
+ must be simultaneously upgraded.
+ ==============================================
+ If you don't like this fix, set:
+ const bool compatible = true;
+ to
+ const bool compatible = false;
+ in src/lib/base64.c
+20Apr06
+kes Ensure that DB signature is never NULL.
+kes Ensure that DB table names are not translated.
+kes Fix scheduler to handle time skew (eg daylight savings).
+kes Fix scheduler to use lock_jobs() to avoid most problems
+ with reload. Window is now milliseconds.
+19Apr06
+kes Apply patch from Christopher Hull
+ kes Allow multiple connections to database with different
+ parameters.
+ kes Invalidate the scheduler when doing a reload. Fixes seg
+ fault, but still 60 second window.
+ kes Additional info in Reschedule message.
+ kes Use set_jcr_job_status() everywhere to prevent loss of
+ cancel, error.
+ kes Display peer IP in FD if error from connecting DIR.
+ kes Don't increment file count for DIRBEGIN.

+kes Print FD mempool stats if debug > 0 rather than 5.
+12Jan06

+ number of items goes to zero.
+kes Move the reservation system thread locking to the top level
+ so that one job at a time tries all possible drives before
+ waiting.
+kes Implement a reservation 'fail' message queue that is built
+ and destroyed on each pass through the reservation system.
+ These messages are displayed in a 'Jobs waiting to reserve
+ a drive' list during a 'status storage='. Note, multiple
+ messages will generally print for each JobId because they
+ represent the different problems with either the same drive
+ or different drives. If this output proves too confusing
+ of voluminous, I will display it only when debug level 1
+ or greater is enabled in the SD.
+11Jan06
+kes Add enable/disable job=<job-name>. This command prevents
+ the specified job from being scheduled. Even when disabled,
+ the job can be manually started from the console.
+kes During 'update slots' clear all InChanger flags where the
+ StorageId is zero (old Media records).
+
+Beta release 1.38.4:

+ Arno's changer bug.
+07Jan06
+kes Add PoolId to Job record when updating it at job start time.
+06Jan06
+kes Pull in more code from 1.39 so that there are fewer file
+ differences (the new ua_dotcmds.c, base64.h, crypto.h
+ hmac.c jcr.c (dird and lib) lib.h md5.h parse_conf.c
+ util.c. Aside from ua_dotcmds.c these are mostly crypto
+ upgrades.
+kes Implement new method of walking the jcr chain. The
+ incr/dec of the use_count is done within the walking
+ routines. This should prevent a jcr from being freed
+ from under the walk routines.
+
+
+Changes to 1.39.3:
+04Jan06
+kes Start implementing Verify list output.
+kes Move the suitable_drive flag to a better place to prevent
+ premature termination of the reservation if all drives
+ are busy -kes should fix Arno's diff/inc pool failures.
+26Dec05
+kes Add mutex to single thread VSS code in Win32.

+ code.
+kes Modify the wait code to permit multiple returns.
+kes Return a zero when 'autochanger drives' is called and
+ it is not an autochanger.
+kes Make rewind_dev() a method taking a DCR as an argument.
+ This permits closing and reopening the drive if the
+ rewind fails as happens if the drive was loaded while the
+ file descriptor was open. This refreshes the file descriptor.
+kes Remove the ST_OPENED flag and always rely on fd < 0 for knowing
+ if the device is open or not. This should eliminate
+ Arnos problem.
+kes Return error if reserve cannot find at least one suitable device.
+kes Make wait_for_sysop() return correct state information.
+kes Fix Win32 state file problem. write was not using compat
+ code. This should fix bug #500.

+kes Delete old bnet packet code.
+kes Ignore new BNET_START_SELECT and BNET_END_SELECT signals in
+ wx-console. -kes not implemented because bconsole must be updated.
+kes Modify restore command in wx-console to set gui on and to use
+ only .messages instead of messages. Hopefully this fixes bug
+ #514.
+kes Fix seg fault in exit of acquire when canceling a job --
+ reported by Wolfgang Denk
+kes Pull in latest reservation system changes from 1.38
+kes Make .messages command always print messages regardless
+ of the automessages flag.

+ message.
+kes With -S on bscan (show progress) do not divide by zero.

+06Dec05
+kes Reset timeout values before select() per patch from
+ Frank Sweetser for problems with non-blocking sockets.
+kes Unlink the state file if either reading or writing it gets
+ errors. Hopefully this will fix Win32 exit problems.
