+ the 5.0.1 release section.
+ Important!!!
+
+Compatibility:
+--------------
+ As always, both the Director and Storage daemon must be upgraded at
+ the same time.
+
+ Older 5.0.x and 3.0.x File Daemons are compatible with the 5.0.3
+ Director and Storage daemons. There should be no need to upgrade older File
+ Daemons.
+
+Changes and New Features:
+- If a VSS (Windows) snapshot fails, the whole Job is failed, previously
+ it printed a warning message and continued.
+- New editing codes %b = Job Bytes and %f = Job Files for runscripts
+- Any non-Bacula project plugins (i.e. third party plugins)

+- If possible, the SD will automatically update the catalog Volume size if

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