+ Technical notes on version 2.1
-Changes to 1.35.6:
-02Oct04
-- Create patches/README and the patch summary file.
-- Use different share mode when opening files on WinMe/98/95 since
- SHARE_DELETE is not implemented on those systems.
-- In new syntax Includes, pass *all* files through the acceptance
- filter so that no error messages will be printed for files that
- cannot be opened if they are excluded.
-01Oct04
-- Fix bug 126 (Martin) -- prevent failed console label request from
- going into fixup code and thus trying to update the catalog.
-- Always fold case in fnmatch() on Win32 systems
-30Sep04
-- Create patches directory
-- Apply Martin's patch for fixing console modifications to Verify Jobs.
-- Fix Win32 so that it can backup files that are opened by programs
- such as Word (certain open system files cannot be backed up).
-
-Changes to 1.35.5:
-29Sep04
-- Fix Storage overrides in Run directive
-- Fix seg fault in AlertCommand
-- Fix btape "test" and "fill" commands to work with new SD
- data structures. There are still problems ...
-26Sep04
-- Correct buffer length passed to inet_ntop() in address_conf.c
-- Increase the debug level of a lot of messages to reduce the
- debugging "noise".
-- Modify how ST_APPEND is handled so that nothing is written
- to the Volume if it is not set. It is now set only when
- the Volume label is verified, and released when the volume
- is released. This required a number of minor but rather
- critical and fundamental changes.
-- Improve quickly terminating a job in the SD when it errs.
- More status checking and a few additional checks on
- job_canceled() and check more error return statuses.
-- Added a number of debug statements (to be removed later) that
- check the VolCatName for a name.
-- Create a single subroutine that handles terminating writing
- on a Volume at the end of the volume (or after an error).
-- Continued to add use of the berrno classs for strerror().
-25Sep04
-- Apply conio patches supplied by Peter Eriksson for configure.in
- conio.h and conio.c to make it work better on Solaris.
-- Make run_grub print manual procedure for installing grub
-- Add extra setsockopt keepalive.
-- Add code to set as many options as possible in the system
- tape driver for different OSes.
-24Sep04
-- Apply Peter Eriksson's patch to configure.in fixes finding
- correct libs on Solaris to link conio -- bug 121
-- Add expected number of files to Verify VolumeToCatalog, and
- if it does not equal the examined files, fail the job.
- Fixes bug -- 114
-- Modify the depend section of each Makefile.in to reference $(CXX)
- instead of $(CC) -- bug 118
-- Remove the word "restore" from the Volumes needed message in
- dird/bsr.c since the message is used for Restore and Verify.
-- Fix initialization and copying of the storage resource when
- starting jobs (and in jobq.c when restarting). In some cases
- jcr->store was not set causing a segfault -- bug 116
-23Sep04
-- More doc.
-- Pass EndFile and EndBlock to SD.
-22Sep04
-- Fixed bscan to close() drive between tapes.
-- Turn on transactions for SQLite and PostgreSQL if
- multiple connections are turned on.
-- Removed stripping of filename in ua_tree insertion routine.
-- Fix split_path_and_filename() routines to return zero length
- path and files.
-- Modify update_tables scripts to convert a single blank filename
- into an empty filename.
-- Incremented the release number because this version requires
- an update to the database.
- Use:
- cd src/cats
- ./update_bacula_tables
- to update an existing database.
-- Implemented EndFile and EndBlock in the Media record. This will
- allow Bacula to know exactly when to stop reading a tape if the
- stupid tape driver does not give a logical end of tape indication
- and Bacula writes to the end of the tape getting an I/O error.
-- Added new routines to update the database, and there are
- new database creation routines to add the two new Media columns.
-- The Media record is updated each time a JobMedia record is created.
- This keeps the Media record up to date.
-- Undid the code to use automatic type converions to char * in
- POOL_MEM. This is due to the ugly consequences of essentially
- destroying the class type nature of the class.
-- Removed all the old mp_char() #define code.
-
-Changes to 1.35.4:
-22Sep04
-- Add additional doc.
-- Implement automatic POOL_MEM type conversion to char *. Thanks
- to Martin Simmons for the suggestion.
-- Remove some unneeded function overloading -- need removed by
- automatic type conversion.
-21Sep04
-- Correct segfault in message.c with debug=200 (new code).
-- Fix bug 109 verify with no options prints garbage.
-- Add ioctl(MTIOCGET) call to clrerror_dev() in dev.c. As reported
- by Frank Kardel, this should clear error conditions on NetBSD.
-20Sep04
-- Modify the rescue script to create mount_drives with
- the order specified by Philip Nash (mkdir, mount).
-- Tweak install chapter of French manual to add new paragraph
- from English.
-- Tweak restore tree message to be a bit clearer.
-- Modify watchdog to wakeup after 60 seconds, or wakeup if
- there is work to do.
-- Modify watchdog stop routine to "ping" watchdog so that it
- stops immediately rather than after sleep time.
-- Fix btape to use new dcr blocks rather than its own.
-- Fix butil.c to correctly handle Volume names for the
- utility routines (broke when updating to dcrs).
-11-19Sep04 (vacation)
-- Implement multiple Storage specifications in the Job resource
- (AND) each containing multiple specifications (OR). Not yet functional.
- Note, this needs more work as most things now use
- job->storage[0]->first() rather than looping through devices.
-- Implement "Multiple connections = yes/no" in Catalog record for
- allowing multiple simultaneous connections to the database.
-- Add new mac.c (Migrate, Archive, Copy) to dird -- not yet implemented.
-- Implement a new POOL_MEM class that automatically allocates
- and deallocates a pool buffer.
-- Overload a number of utility routines to permit using both
- POOLMEM and POOL_MEM.
-- Start converting to using POOL_MEM.
-- There were a number of Bacula console ACL checks missing in
- ua_run.c. It allowed users to run jobs they really should not.
-- Correct a number of dates on the Copyright.
-- Overload pm_strcpy() and pm_strcat() to handle new POOL_MEM
- class.
-- Overload bash/unbash_spaces to handle new POOL_MEM class.
-- Make a *MASSIVE* pass through the Storage daemon eliminating
- all use of jcr->VolumeName and jcr->VolCatInfo in favor of
- dcr->...
-- Eliminate all all redundant arguments from calling sequences
- in SD. This poses a number of problems due to the old way blocks
- and records were allocated and released all the time. They are
- now contained in the dcr. The problem is that old habits die hard
- and there are still places where everything is not right.
-- Implement "Block positioning = yes/no" in Device resource in SD.
-
-Changes to 1.35.3:
-09Sep04
-- Add "Multiple Connections = yes/no" in catalog record. Only
- the variable is implemented, no code yet.
-- Close *all* FD unless debug on.
-08Sep04
-- Add first cut of UTF-8 support to conio. It "seems" to be working
- pretty well. Moving by words will definitely not work though.
-- Improve detection and setting of gateway in the
- network_start script.
-07Sep04
-- Modify scan code so that in most places scanning will
- continue across the end of a line.
-05Sep04
-- Begin major phase of 1.35 documentation.
-- All outstanding bugs are fixed.
-- Implement changes and improvements to rescue scripts as
- proposed by Gaurav.
-05Sep04
-- Add correction to Phil's previous patch.
-- Send all queued messages in SD and FD prior to closing down
- the job.
-- Send queued messages in Jobs before terminating the job
- so that the messages print before the job report.
-- Add a destructor so that the Console ACLs are properly
- freed.
-04Sep04
-- Implement isolinux boot disk.
-- Integrate Phil Stracchino's code (thanks for Matt's help).
- It permits lists and ranges of jobids on the delete as in:
- delete job jobid=1,3,5,11-16
-03Sep04
-- Apply Mike Acar's suggestion when looking for the next volume
- to check purged volumes for recycling before doing a purge.
-- Make some improvements to CDROM disk.
-- Take another crack at ignoring drive open() errors during
- polling.
-02Sep04
-- Add eliminate orphaned job records; eliminate admin records,
- and eliminate restore records to dbcheck.
-- replace sprintf by bsnprintf() in dbcheck.
-- Added scan target to makefile in rescue cd to print scsi
- devices.
-- Added argument to berrno::strerror() to pass errno.
-- Cleaned up a few more old strerror() calls and eliminated a
- few of the now unnecessary set_errno() calls.
-- Fixed a bug in the polling code that prevented more than 100
- label reads (insanity check disabled if polling).
-- Ignore bad return from open_device() if polling.
-- Short circuit code if fatal error return from read_label() in
- mount.c
-01Sep04
-- Add index file to JobId field of File records for PostgreSQL.
-- Correct several bugs in the job queue scheduler concerning
- rescheduled jobs: 1. The SD status was not cleared causing a
- wrong status to be displayed by Dir after rescheduling. 2. All
- rescheduled jobs became zombies because the jcr use_count was
- not decremented properly.
-- Make the Catalog resource required in Client records.
-- Order the listing of where a file is (item 2 on the restore
- menu) by StartTime.
-- Clarify when a filename only and a full path + filename must
- be entered in items 2 and 8 of the restore menu.
-- Fix logic error in resolution of names on IPv4 systems.
-
-Changes to 1.35.2 released 01Sep04:
-30Aug04
-- Inhibit printing of FileSet for a restore as it is misleading.
-- Cleaned up a number of minor scripting problems with the CDROM
- creation.
-- Fixed a race condition causing a Director crash on termination,
- if a large number of SIGHUPs were sent during a multiple concurrent
- set of backups.
-28Aug04
-- Completed integration of Rescue CD scripts with Bacula source.
-28Aug04
-- Added Ignore FileSet Changes = yes
-- Added more error checking to the spooling code.
-24Aug04
-- Applied a patch from Peter Eriksson that removes a dynamic stack
- allocation (replaced by alloca) and fixes some const problems.
-- Fixed a free() of a static variable in the new IP code bnet.c
-- Got the new Bacula Rescue CDROM booting.
-- Replaced a dynamic template by a simple store when using the
- native C compiler.
-- Reworked some of the block.c error handling.
-- Changed a Dmsgx(000, to Dmsgx(100 in dev.c that was dumping
- debug output on a user.
-- Integrated patch from 1.34.6 block.c to 1.35
-17Aug04
-- Fix conio.c problem on Solaris.
-- Add debug code to lock_jcr_chain().
-- Lock jcr chain around less code.
-- Implement call by reference for Mmsg() and pm_strxxx() to
- simplify calls.
-- New IP address specification is used as follows:
- [sdaddresses|diraddresses|fdaddresses] = { [[ip|ipv4|ipv6] = {
- [[addr|port] = [^ ]+[\n;]+] }] }
-
- so it could look for example like this:
- SDaddresses = { ip = {
- addr = 1.2.3.4; port = 1205; }
- ipv4 = {
- addr = 1.2.3.4; port = http; }
- ipv6 = {
- addr = 1.2.3.4;
- port = 1205;
- }
- ip = {
- addr = 1.2.3.4
- port = 1205
- }
- ip = {
- addr = 1.2.3.4
- }
- ip = {
- addr = 2001:220:222::2
- }
- ip = {
- addr = bluedot.thun.net
- }
- }
- as a consequence, you can now specify multiple IP addresses and
- ports to be used. In the case of a server, it will listen on
- all those that you specify. In the case of connecting to the server,
- Bacula will attempt connecting to one at a time until it succeeds.
- And, in a few other special cases, Bacula will use only the first
- address specified.
-
- The default port numbers are still the same and the services and hosts
- are also resolved by name. So now you could use the real names for the
- port numbers.
-

-- Make better subroutines for setting up for a new job.
-- Start putting all DB ids on #defines (going to 64 bits).

-14Jun04
-- Applied Peter Eriksson's const changes to the source code. Thanks Peter.
-- Implemented a binary_insert() method for dlists -- intended to be used
- in the restore tree routines.
-- Turned on my bsscanf() code, which replaces sscanf() by my routines, which
- are a subset of sscanf() used by Bacula, but which have known 32/64 bit
- behavior rather than vendor dependent !@#$%*.

-12Jun04
-- Enhance regression scripts.
-- Apply Tim Oberfoell's ACL patch.
-11Jun04
-- Implement bsscanf() because sscanf on FreeBSD amd64 stores
- in 64 bit words for %ld. Turned on for the moment only for
- FreeBSD amd64.
-- Fix all conversions of ptr to int to use (long unsigned) this
- works on i386 and amd64.
-- Add mtimeonly and keepatime to new Options list -- omitted before.

- long.
-10Jun04

-06Apr04
-- Turn off SIGQUIT in console.
-05Apr04
-- A good number of document updates.

-31Mar04
-- Update dbcheck to fix Paths without a trailing slash and Filenames
- with a trailing slash.
-30Mar04
-- Add -p option to all SD programs including bacula-sd. It causes
- Bacula to proceed or forge on in case of I/O errors. It is unlikely

- be much better.
-12Mar04
-- Implement simple spool statistics printed by "status sd".
-- Cleanup/add spool error messages.
-- On multiple ctl-c, exit from console quickly.
-- Implement code to select a different Volume in the SD if the
- current Volume is busy -- requested by Patrick Cole.
-- Change postgreSQL make tables to use bigint instead of integer
- for StartBlock and EndBlock because
- there is no unsigned integer in postgreSQL and these fields use 32 bits.
-- Implement multiple drive autochanger support -- prompted by email of
- Patrick Cole.
-11Mar04
-- Update version and date in Win32 build.
-- Fix bug in run_conf with month range zapping wday and wom.
-- Correct editing of port for PQsetdbLogin in postgresql.c as reported
- by J. Conroy, and do a second try.
-10Mar04

- to the device during despooling.
-09Mar04
-- Data spooling now passes the regression tests.
-- Added "Files Expected" to the restore job report.
-- Implemented SpoolData = yes/no in the Job resource

-08Mar04
-- Second cut data spooling code.
-- Fix missing piece of yesterday's patch.
-07Mar04
-- Integrate patches supplied by Jason Conroy that fix Slot numbers
- getting lost.
-06Mar04
-- This version contains a *major* addition to the SD structures.
- Many variables have been moved out of the JCR into a new DCR
- (Device Context Record). This required quite a few changes, and
- introduced a bit of instability. In the end, after a few more
- rounds of changes, the DCR will replace virtually all arguments
- to the low level SD read/write routines. This change permits
- (with a bit more code) the SD to write to multiple devices at
- the same time for a single Job. It also facilitates adding the
- data spooling code.
-- Added a patch that fixed the port specification for postgresql.
-- Fixed findlib/find_one.c so that it will complain about backing
- up a hard linked file twice, which makes a restore impossible.
-- Tighten up permissions on pid file.
-- Attempt to avoid warnings when casting 64 bit pointers to an
- integer.
-- Added skeleton code for data spooling.
-- Make sure spooled attributes are discarded on error.
-03Mar04
-- Updated getdiskinfo in rescue/linux to handle the fact that the
- sfdisk -s option now includes info on partitions. Also, before
- creating the diskinfo files, clean out the old ones.
-02Mar04
-- Add debug and error output to jobq.c
-- Fix some minor errors in debug output of scheduler.c
-- Add "trace on/off" command and modify trace code in message.c
- to work off trace flag rather than #defines.
-01Mar04
-- If console is found during install warn user (new name is bconsole).
-- On install copy console.conf to bconsole.conf if it exists.
-- Make RunAfterJob error non-fatal.
-- Rework minor details in status output.
-- Attempt to define all values for "consoles" in JCR to avoid
- confusion.
-28Feb04
-- Use net start bacula to start Bacula on WinXP/NT/2K
- systems after installation.
-- Change a few strcpy()s to bstrncpy()s in signal.
-- Add "gui on/off" command to console to turn on gui mode,
- which will adapt Bacula better to batch or gui programs.
- Currently, it prevents commas from being inserted into
- numbers in the list command.
-- Tweak some of the Makefiles so that the install is done with
- the right program (nothing really changed).
-- Install logrotate in the "make autostart" of Bacula on RedHat.
-- Implement SIGHUP while jobs are running. It *seems* to work but is
- a bit fragile and still crashes if you push it. More work needed.
-- Applied Phil's GNOME 1.4 patch. Very clean. Thanks Phil.
-- Major updates to the native Win32 installer.
-27Feb04
-- Restructure free of conf resources to handle job_end_push()
- and SIGHUP. Lots of changes little substance.
-26Feb04
-- Add mtimeonly=yes/no and keepatime=yes/no to Include list
- 1.33 style.
-- Allow no modifier in time and size specifications.
-- Attempt to implement disk seeking. More work needed.
-- Implement more in win32 installer and test it.
-25Feb04
-- Implement kb, mb, and gb modifiers for size, which mean
- 1,000 bytes, 1,000,000, ... bytes.
-- Add Makefile to src/win32 to allow building the full
- release -- it calls nmake where appropriate.
-- Remove the rsi directory from win32 as suggested by Christopher
-- Add Michel Meyers' nsi file to win32 and integrate it with
- the build.
-24Feb04
-- Add the frigging _O_BINARY to the right variable. Win32 works!
-- Add debug code to state file. There is a problem with Win32 read
- returning one byte less than it should.
-- Implement a number of new functions for alist so that it has
- equivalent functionality to dlist. It will be used for
- job_end_push().
-- More work on state file.
-- Added a popup message box on Windows if Bacula Aborts.
-- Attempt to shutdown the FD server, but doesn't work on Windows. This
- would have given a cleaner shutdown, no problem.
-23Feb04
-- Update projects
-- Attempt to fix state file on Win32 -- no luck.
-- Add HPUX tweaks to configure.in
-- Update quickstart and install.wml of doc.

- correctly report what is in the state file.
-22Feb04
-- Implement daemon state file, and save/restore last_jobs list.
-- Fix time routines in win32 compat.cpp
-- Fix a bug of not checking the bpipe_open() status in do_shell_expansion().
-21Feb04
-- Add Volker's bacula script to the SuSE directory and convert it
- to bacula.in
-- Make LockRes() and UnlockRes() use read/write locks and have
- debug info to trace locking and unlocking.
-- Begin work of implementing SIGHUP. It is now enabled for
- the Director and works only if there are no jobs running,
- in addition, if the new conf file is incorrect, it will
- terminate Bacula. Much more work to be done. I've figured
- out a scheme to implement it with running jobs without
- adding individual semaphores or use counts.
-- Sort "list jobs" by StartTime rather than JobId, which can
- be random.
-16Feb04
-- Add a lot of "const" to char * arguments to keep the native
- Sun compiler happy.
-- Added first cut of message queuing to prevent recursion in
- low level routines. This code is not yet working.
-- Spent a *huge* amount of time looking at the tape driver
- code in the wake of several reports of tape labels getting
- trashed. The code looks fine.
-- Created a tape with an error (by writing a block at the
- beginning of a tape that had valid data), and found that
- Under Linux there is no way to read past an I/O error.
- I tried mt; I tried my own program (btape); and I tried
- using scsitape, which talks directly to the scsi driver.
- This is *VERY BAD* news.
-- I spent an *enormous* amount of time enhancing the btape
- test program as well as making the fill command work with
- both one and two tapes and the autochanger if configured.
- The multiple tape fill test is now quite comprehensive.
- It checks the last block on the first tape, the first block
- on the second tape, and the last block (11) on the second
- tape.
-- Teaked the tape driver for several functions to use the
- OS driver's notion of mt_file if there is an error.
-13Feb04
-- Add DB update scripts retrieved by Scott to a new updatedb
- directory at the top level.
-- Add -p option to bcopy to allow ignoring errors on input.
-- COALESCE(xx,0) does not work on PostgreSQL because the 0 is not a
- correct time. Replaced by adding LastWritten IS NULL to the sort
- line as was first suggested by JML.
-12Feb04
-- Use COALESCE(LastWritten, 0) in sql_find.c to get NULLs to sort last.
- See note above.
-- Add write/read and positioning test to btape "test" program.
-10Feb04
-- Fix bad printf of InChanger flag reported by Pascal Pederiva.
-- Fix bad indexing off stack in authenticate.c reported by
- Pascal Pederiva.
-09Feb04
-- Add \n to hosts.access reject message.
-- Implement security message class and make hosts.access message use
- that class.
-08Feb04
-- Fix check_memory bug in ua_query.c, which gives a bus error on Solaris.
- This affected only the query command.
-07Feb04
-- Added backup to cdwriter script to examples provided by Johan Decock.
-- Fixed a bug where ls really did lsmark (just invert command table
- entries).
-- Fix bug where a soft linked file and a directory had the same name
- by treating the soft link as a directory and putting the entries under
- it. This fixes the bug reported by Alexander Mueller.
-- Fix a deadlock situation in the new watchdog code where the
- watchdog locks its semaphore, and attempts to lock the jcr_chain,
- but another thread has locked the jcr_chain and wants to free a
- watchdog, which tries to lock the watchdog semaphore -- deadlock!
- Used read/write locks to solve the problem.
-- Improved the error messages when I/O errors or buffer id errors
- are detected, and prevent non-sense errors from being printed.
-- Fix some incorrect messages in restore if no name is supplied
- on the command line (e.g. pool= ).
-- Add the third digit to the release version number.
-04Feb04
-- Add -l option to bls that causes it to ignore tape label errors.
-03Feb04
-- Correct problems with jobs scheduled at a later time by hand.
- Missing unlock(), backward test on pthread_create status.
-- Fix setip crash reported by Alan Brown.
-- Create bacula.spec.in in SuSE directory from Scott.
-- Fix missing unlock() in ua_status on access denial.
-- Lots of little cleanups, improving jcr use_count debug printing.
-- Add EMSG to mem_pool utilization statistics.
-01Feb04
-- New bacula.spec.in file from Scott
-- Add Scott's spec file to the platforms/suse directory
-- Modify configure.in to make platforms/suse/bacula.spec
-- Do not allow a resource name to be specified twice.
-
-2004-01-30 Version 1.33-30Jan04 Release
-30Jan04
-- Apply Jess Guardiani's second fix to list autochanger volumes without
- opening the drive (necessary on FreeBSD if no tape is in the drive).
-- Added Postgresql configure search libraries recommended by Alan Brown.
-29Jan04
-- Reworked the command line handler in restore to walk through the
- arguments one at a time. This makes the file= entries work correctly.
- Also reworked the code that takes the MediaType and finds a
- storage device.
-26Jan04
-- I've noticed that the backups of Rufus, my development machine, can be
- "stuck" for about 12 hours, then suddenly they run. In running the
- debugger, I see that it was stuck on the select() statement waiting
- for the Hello. Why this happens I am not sure. I re-organized the code
- a bit because it didn't seem to be as robust as it could, but I cannot
- explain the problem.
-- As a consequence of the above, I have implemented a new bsock timer that
- can be started and stopped. This is based on Nic Bellamy's new watchdog
- code. The timer is set with start_bsock_timer(bsock, timeout); If the
- timeout expires, the bsock will be marked as timed_out and interrupted
- with a pthread_kill() on the current thread.
-- Added 5 minute bsock timers to all the opening Hello/authentication
- exchanges between the various daemons.
-24Jan04
-- New spec file from Scott.
-- New patch file from Scott for create_sqlite_database
-- Fix crash in run command if invalid pool specified on the command line
- and then the user cancels the Pool prompt.
-- Separate Console and ConsoleFont resources in gnome2 conf files.
-- Remove possibly bad ASSERTs from bnet.c
-- Remove open() of device in dircmd.c, which fails on FreeBSD with
- an autoloader -- thanks to Jesse Guardiani for this fix.
-20Jan04
-- Remove all "hostname -s" from configure except for RedHat. Use uname -n instead.
-- Implement SetIP command.
-- Implement Close On Poll in Device resource on SD.
-- Implement Full, Inc, and Diff Pools.
-- Implement Access control lists for Consoles.
-18Jan04
-- Define default working_dir as /var/bacula/working.
-- Implement setip console command to set new IP address for a Client.
-17Jan04
-- Implement maximum network buffer size directives.
-- Good first cut at access control lists for the console.
-- Optimize restore to select only latest Differential backup after
- the Full, and then all following Incremental backups. Previously
- everything after Full was selected.
-16Jan04
-- Organize kernstodo a bit (more to be done).
-- Add client IP address to BSOCK structure.
-- Use bit fields where appropriate in BSOCK structure.
-- Pass UAContext to ua authenticate in Director, and make it
- set the appropriate console (or NULL for none).
-- Tweak restore "run" argument handling and add "files" keyword.
-- Add device name or Volume name to some SD messages.
-15Jan04
-- First cut multiple consoles.
-14Jan04
-- Update kernstodo
-- Add quit command to restore tree handler.
-- Make restore tree handler remember if a hard link is present, and
- in doing a mark, only get database entry if there is a hard link.
- mark commands thus run at least 2 orders of magnitude faster.
-- Add files=xxx field to run command submitted for restore.
-- Add yes to restore run command if either yes or run is command line
- argument.
-- Make "yes" on command line argument skip prompt for modification of
- run job.
-- Add markdir and unmarkdir -- both affect only the directory in
- question and do not do a recursive descent.
-- Make tree command automatically mark all higher level directories to
- be restored when a directory or a file is selected. Such directories
- are indicated by preceding the name with a + to indicate that only
- the directory entry is selected and not the whole directory tree.
-- Modify a few tree commands to walk through all arguments rather than
- just taking the first one.
-13Jan04
-- Update copyright date on changed files.
-- Make mark command in restore tree run *much* faster by accessing database only
- if the file actually is hard linked -- determined at time tree it built by
- keeping a has_link bit in the tree entry.
-12Jan04
-- Modify findlib/makepath.c to create all parent directories with full permissions.
- This should solve the access problems on restoring files on Win32 systems.
-- Modify restore to report **** Restore Error **** if any error are found.
- I.e. a file could not be created.
-- Change a few errors into warnings -- e.g. if permissions could not be set, but
- the file is actually restored.
-11Jan04
-- Replace bsd_queue with dlist in lib/watchdog.c
-- Add Date: header to bsmtp. Thanks to Meno Abels (abels) on SourceForge
- for reporting this.
-- Remove ap==NULL check in src/lib/var.c as suggested by Christoph Barbian
- because ap (va_list) is a struct on the Alpha, so the code does not
- compile.
-10Jan04
-- Implement first cut of polling for a Volume. New Device directive
- "Volume Poll Interval = xxx" where xxx is a time specification
- (e.g. 5min). Default is off.
-- Call pthread_cancel on SD msgchan only if the threadid is non-zero.
-07Jan04
-- Change RH autostart scripts to start in Dan's order.
-

-03Jan04
-- Fix seg fault -- don't close db in db_open_database(). It must explicitly
- be called.
-- Doc updates
-- Allow purge of a single JobId from a Volume (code untested)
-- Implement fix to keep SD from looping complaining about the wrong volume
- at the end of a tape -- reported by Phil, and fix confirmed by him. I cannot
- seem to reproduce the bug here.
-- Clean up a few more strcpy()s.
-01Jan04
-- Fix configure.in FD User print per Lars.
-- Doc update.
-- New bacula.spec.in from Scott. Nice!
-- Make RunAfterJob non-fatal if it errs since the Job has really
- already completed the save.
-- Replace sprintf with bsnprintf in message.c
-31Dec03
-- Note, this change affects only the Win32 FD.
-- Fixed Win32 FD crash due to missing argument in status command. It
- always crashed if there was a job that had previously run. Thanks to
- Christopher Hull for finding and diagnosing this problem.
-29Dec03
-- Fix SELECT as indicated by Dan in sql_get.c for returning Volume names.
-- Fix last_jobs list crash for utility programs (btape, ...).
-- Correct editing of FileSet name into SQL command.
-- Allow calling watchdog stop without initialization for utility programs.

-- 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.
-

-- A number of minor code cleanups.
-- Rework shell expansion just a bit.
-- Add rewind() when releasing a tape before acquiring the next one.
-- Implement addition of Description in Service entry for Win32.
-- Update manual to eliminate unclear autochanger points as mentioned
- by Dan Langille.
-- Implement DESTDIR everywhere.
-- Rework spec files for 1.31 and combine the main spec and the client

- so it is a bit clearer to the user. Also fix the build to work
- 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

- always return zero when awaken by a pthread_cond_signal().
-- 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.
-- Added heartbeat from FD to Dir every HB_TIME rather than forwarding
- SD heartbeats.
-- First cut label dialog.
-- Turn on new semaphore code for simultaneous Jobs.

-- 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.

-- 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.
-
-=============================================================================
-2003-01-05 Version 1.28b released
-- Corrected a typo of working_directory in bacula-dir.conf
- reported by James MacLean.
-- Fixed the fact that path and filenames in some cases were not
- being quoted before going into the database. Many thanks to
- James MacLean for reporting this.
-
-=============================================================================
-2003-01-05 Version 1.28a released
-- Corrected a missing quote in bacula-dir.conf reported by James MacLean
-
-=============================================================================
-2003-01-05 Version 1.28 released
General:
-- Implemented Bare Metal Recovery for Linux and manual procedures for Solaris
-- Now using only a single technotes file kes-1.28 and will add to
- it as the development goes on.
-- Wrote a general purpose bi-directional pipe command. This replaces
- previous use of pipes as well as the run_program previously used.
-- Make BSRs stop if no more matches are possible.
-- Allow unliminted number of devices in Storage daemon.
-- Allow connections to Storage daemon before all devices are initialized.
-- Better documentation (and btape test command) on using fixed block
- tape drivers.
-
-Changes submitted this submission:
-04Jan03
-- Add cygreadline5.dll to Win32 release -- needed for console
-03Jan03
-- 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
-- Add count to bsr.
-- Fix Volume in bsr.
-- Move autochanger code to new subroutine in mount.c
-
-=============================================================================
-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().

-2002-04-18 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

- 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

- * Setup basic file structure with ./configure
+Release: 2.1.14 beta
+14Jun07
+kes Do not free a volume on a tape drive until another volume is
+ mounted and read, or the autochanger unloads the volume.
+ This should help the SD re-use volumes that are already mounted,
+ and should fix bug #886.
+kes Apply patch from user brettedgar that allows gnome2-console include
+ the OpenSSL libraries, and hence work with SSL. Fixes bug #885.
+kes Apply patch from Lucien Weller that fixes day of week calculation
+ because of DST flag problem. Fixes bug #887.
+10Jun08
+kes Move find_next_appendable_volume() to after acquiring a valid device
+ in reserve.c. This fixes bug #864 -- confirmed by reporter.
+09Jun07
+kes Unable to reproduce bug 872. However added additional testing for
+ integer.
+kes Bug #874 resolved by documenting SQLite limitations.
+kes Bug #882 resolved by documenting mtx-changer script for new drive code.
+kes Bug #881 resolved by removing typo in mtx-changer script.
+kes Made Frank Sweetser's wiki the official Bacula wiki with his
+ approval. Added a link to the wiki on the web page, and implemented
+ a backup from http://paramount.ind.wpi.edu
+08Jun07
+kes Fix update allfrompool to pass pool name.
+07Jun07
+kes Convert to pure GPL v2 license.
+kes Fix sscanf problems reported by Peter Buschman that caused
+ a bus error on Solaris.
+kes Rework (simplify) the select prompt in bat.
+kes Move get_jobid_from_tid() into lib and create a
+ get_jcr_from_tid().
+kes Use get_jcr_from_tid() to conver all tls Emsg() to Jmsg(). This
+ should definitely fix the problem of lost error messages in the
+ encryption code.
+kes Remove over zellous addition of FSFE copyright in a few eggxxx files.
+kes Eliminate tcpd.h from the project. Enclose the #include from the
+ library with extern C ...

+Release: 2.1.12 beta
+04Jun07
+kes Fix a seg fault in the PostgreSQL driver dereferencing a NULL pointer.
+03Jun07
+kes Implement SQLITE3_INIT_QUERY in version.h that can do an initial
+ query for SQLite3. Use it to set PRAGMA synchronous = OFF. This
+ makes SQLit3 run 30 times faster, though a bit less safe.
+kes Implement --with-batch-insert in configure and detection of thread
+ safe libraries. It is on by default, but turned off if no thread
+ safe library (e.g. SQLite 2) is available.
+02Jun07
+kes Fix Bacula PostgreSQL buffer overruns.
+kes Do better checking for NULL results returned from PostgreSQL;
+ implement retry for failed queries; clear results buffer after
+ failed query. Hopefully this will correct the PostgreSQL failures.

+kes Implement algorithm to handle only one appendable volume with
+ Prefer Mounted Volumes = no.
+kes Fix a Bacula PostgreSQL bug dereferencing a NULL pointer
+ returned from a query.
+kes Make volume lock recursive.
+kes Implement an additional volume reservation algorithm that
+ starts by considering all reserved volumes then uses the
+ old brute force algorithm of searching the resources to
+ find a suitable device.
+kes Add new reservations debug code and refine the old code.
+kes Update the win32/dll/bacula.defs file.
+29May07
+kes Tweak reservations algorithm to permit a few more cases, i.e.
+ volume reserved, but on different drive, ...
+kes Enhance SD status to include Pool and Media Type for drive in a
+ more readable format (a bit longer).
+kes Fix PostgreSQL double free.
+28May07
+kes Minor refactoring of restore decryption code.
+kes Add code to smartall.c to detect double free of a buffer.
+27May07
+kes Add < > around %r in from field on mail command of bacula-dir.conf.in
+ so that bsmtp will create a correct email address (mailbox only).
+kes Modify 'memory' command so that the buffers are listed as 'In use'
+ to avoid confusion with Orphaned buffers.
+kes I reworked the OpenSSL include/lib flags to be handled in
+ the standard Bacula way, which should fix bug #863 concerning
+ non-standard OpenSSL libraries.
+26May07
+kes Implement Help Browser window for bat.
+kes Fix reload bug that reset StorageId to zero.
+25May07
+kes Fix TLS #ifdefing when TLS turned off.
+kes Ensure that when labelling a tape with Slot=0 that InChanger
+ is not set.
+kes Use DISTINCT to make MySQL and PostgreSQL uar_list_temp query
+ the same.
+kes Add StartTime to final uar_sel_jobid_temp query so that we can
+ add DISTINCT (required by PostgreSQL).
+kes Implement BSOCK authenticate_director() method. Eventually will
+ authenicate all daemons.
+kes Move several more functions into the BSOCK class.
+24May07
+kes Add code to tell the OS that we no longer need a cached
+ file that we were reading. In findlib/bfile.c. Also,
+ only cache files that we are reading. Thanks to
+ Tobias Oetiker <tobi@oetiker.ch> for the idea.
+kes Tweak to bsmtp to eliminate compiler warnings on Win32.
+kes Implement script to automatically generate cats and dll .def
+ files for Win32 dll.
+kes Update README.mingw32 to include new .def file generation.
+kes Correct typo in UTF-8 error message as reported by:
+ jhernandez <julianhernandez@gmail.com>
+kes Add additional sm_check() code on debug level 1.
+kes Set default debug level to 1.
+kes Trap SIGABRT in attempt to get traceback.
+23May07
+kes Reduce bat connect timeout from 30 to 15 seconds.
+kes More restructuring and implementing BSOCK class in place of
+ old bnet.c code.
+kes Remove a few unnecessary malloc() tests in crypto code.
+kes Turn off crypto calls for > 128 bits in crypto.c if HAVE_SHA2
+ not defined. Bug reported by Allan Black <Allan.Black@btconnect.com>
+kes Remove duplicate HAVE_CRYPTO definition in config.h.in
+22May07
+kes Fix Verify InitCatalog mysql_escape_string() trashing memory.
+ Make buffer bigger.
+kes Fix Verify InitCatalog. The attributes were not pointing to the
+ correct saved location.

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

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

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

+ Fix sql stuff for mysql
+22Mar07
+kes Correct problems with am/pm scheduling. Fixes bug #808.

+ and bacula access to the DB.
+kes Correct a misplaced variable definition in src/filed/backup.c
+kes Correct how the new batch insert db_create_attributes_record()
+ uses the arguments. Caused a seg fault in bscan.
+kes Implement lock() and unlock() methods in DEVICE class.
+ Implement block() and set_block(xx) methods in DEVICE class.
+kes Modify bnet_connect() so that it uses time() to check for the
+ wait time expiring (on some OSes, some system calls may not
+ return immediately).
+kes Modify Verify to obtain the previous JobId when it is actually
+ running rather than at schedule time (as it was in 1.38.x).
+kes Fix src/job.c to handle MaxWaitTime correctly. This should
+ fix bug #802.
+kes When checking pid in pid file, continue running if the pid is
+ the same as ours. This occurs on IRIX after a system crash.
+ Fixes bug #797.
+10Mar07
+kes Extend new GUI API.
+kes Make the ua structure a class, and implement send_msg(),

+ crypto buffers not freed during errors. Fixes bug #789.
+kes Extend new GUI api code to tree commands.
+kes Ensure that tree and dot commands check console ACLs.

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

+kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
+ not be zeroed.
+kes Continue implementing lib/bsock.c (real class). Make jcr,
+ who, host, and port private. There are new methods to access
+ them for non-class use. This required touching a number of files.
+21Feb07
+kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
+ than English. Fixes bug #788.
+20Feb07
+ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob to old position as in 1.38.X.
+ This fixes bug #780
+ You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.

+ trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
+19Feb07
+kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
+ no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
+ set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
+ebl finish RecyclePool feature
+ Media will takes Pool.RecyclePool
+ when moving from Scratch to a Pool or when user will do
+ update volume=xxx frompool
+ To use it, add RecyclePool = aPool to your Pool resource
+ Pool {
+ Name = Default
+ RecyclePool = Scratch
+ ...
+ }
+ TODO: update manual
+kes Expand new BSOCK class adding signal() and new BNET signals.
+kes Begin enhancing the dot commands adding a new API function
+ that returns more information and will make it easier
+ to interface to the Director from a program.
+18Feb07
+kes Make DEVICE fd private. Its new name is m_fd, and can be
+ obtained with dev->fd() outside the class. This is the
+ first of many DEVICE members to be made private.
+kes Implement Michael Renner's idea on having a virtual disk
+ changer. I made some minor modifications (e.g. I did not
+ implement the Virtual Changer directive, but simply set
+ the Changer Command to an empty string.
+17Feb07
+kes Implement a BSOCK send() method that writes the whole record
+ in a single write() request rather than in two.
+ebl add update volume=xxx recyclepool=yyyy
+ volume takes recyclepool from pool when using update volume=xxx from pool

+ was opened, it is closed.
+10Feb07
+kes Correct VolCatBytes bug from media patch.
+kes Apply patch from bug #612 by Rudolf Cejka to speedup pruning
+ in the case of orphaned records.
+kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
+ and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
+ idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
+kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to
+ the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what
+ happens to the ScratchPool?
+kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media
+ times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a
+ simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there
+ should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure
+ times are in Bacula units.
+kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch.
+09Feb07
+kes Update projects list.
+08Feb07
+kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using
+ the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having
+ large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25.
+kes Fix dird/ua_cmds.c so that a cancel command checks if the
+ console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
+ #767.
+kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
+ at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
+ fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
+ to fail.
+kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
+ so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
+07Feb07
+ Switch to using Subversion
+kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
+06Feb07
+kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
+ plus the entrypoints.
+kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
+ in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
+ part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
+05Feb07
+kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
+ loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
+ Fixes bug #771.

+ with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
+ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
+04Feb07
+kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
+ problem is with read or append.
+02Feb07
+kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
+kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
+ memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
+kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
+ termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
+ (i.e. migration jobs).
+kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
+ a memory leak problem.
+kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
+ in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
+ to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
+kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
+ rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
+ methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
+ (hides some of the ugly casting).
+kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more
+ readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing
+ strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists.
+kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist
+ rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested
+ by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now
+ uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This
+ should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories
+ contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000).
+28Jan07
+kes Fix maxruntime bug #621.
+26Jan07
+ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project.
+kes Reorder projects file in order determined by Jan 2007 vote.

+ bug #742.
+09Jan07
+kes Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
+ and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
+ this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
+kes Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
+kes Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle
+ SHA1 option, which was eating the next option. Reported by
