- Release Notes for Bacula 1.38.0
-
- Bacula code: Total files = 420 Total lines = 138,440 (*.h *.c *.in)
- 20,440 additional lines of code since version 1.36.3
-
-Major Changes:
-- Fixed out of order Volumes in restore.
-- Improved algorithm for reserving drives in multiple drive
- autochangers. Autochange users MUST use the new Autochanger
- resource in the Storage daemon.
-- There is a new database format that is not compatible
- with previous databases. You must upgrade if converting
- from 1.36.x. No changes from version 1.37.30.
-- The Director, Storage daemon, and File daemons are
- Deamons are not compatible with prior versions.
- All FDs must be upgraded at the same time.
-- Support for ANSI/IBM labels.
-- Faster database inserts due to combining the MD5/SHA1 into
- the attributes record, eliminating one INSERT/file backed up.
-- Python Event support has been added. See below for
- configuration and details. The implementation is somewhat minimal,
- so the functionality is not complete. The Python interface
- has not been extensively tested, so please consider it BETA.
-- DVD writing support, using parts, and some new directives in
- the Device resource of the Storage configuration file thanks
- to Nicolas Boichat. Please note that this code is still
- BETA and should be carefully tested before using in
- production.
-- Seven new options keywords in a FileSet resource:
- ignorecase, fstype, hfsplussupport, wilddir, wildfile, regexdir,
- and regexfile thanks to Pruben Guldberg). See below for details.
-- Restore of all files for a Job or set of jobs even if the file
- records have been removed from the catalog.
-- Restore of a directory (non-recursive, i.e. only one level).
-- Support for TLS (ssl) between all the daemon connections thanks
- to Landon Fuller.
-- Any Volume in the Pool named Scratch may be reassigned to any
- other Pool when a new Volume is needed.
-- You may clone a Job and thus write (almost) the same data
- to multiple Volumes simultaneously (see below). Actually,
- any Job may start any other Job with this mechanism, so it
- also be used to group jobs.
-- Unicode filename support for Win32 (thanks to Thorsten Engel)
-- Volume Shadow Copy support for Win32 thus the capability to
- backup exclusively opened files (thanks to Thorsten Engel).
- A VSS enabled Win32 FD is available. You must explicitly
- turn on VSS with "Enable VSS = yes" in your FileSet resource.
-- New manual format with an index (thanks to Karl Cunningham).
-- New Web site format (thanks to Michael Scherer).
-- SQLite3 support.
-- Web-bacula, previously a separate project by Juan Luis Frances,
- is now included in the Bacula GUI release. This is a management
- level tool for reporting the state of Bacula jobs.
-- The code is now Internationalized so that it can be localized
- in native languages. Thanks to Nicolas Boichat.
-
-New Directives:
-- New Job directive "Prefer Mounted Volumes = yes|no" causes the
- SD to select either an Autochanger or a drive with a valid
- Volume already mounted in preference. If none is available,
- it will select the first available drive.
-- New Run directive in Job resource of DIR. It permits
- cloning of jobs. To clone a copy of the current job, use
- Run = "job-name level=%l since=\"%s\""
- Note, job-name is normally the same name as the job that
- is running but there is no restriction on what you put. If you
- want to start the job by hand and use job overrides such as
- storage=xxx, realize that the job will be started with the
- default storage values not the overrides. The level=%l guarantees
- that the chosen level of the job is the same, and the since=...
- ensures that the job uses *exactly* the same time/date for incremental
- and differential jobs. The since=... is ignored when level=Full.
- A cloned job will not start additional clones, so it is not possible
- to recurse.
-- New Options keywords in a FileSet directive (backported to 1.36.3):
- - WildDir xxx
- Will do a wild card match against directories (files will not
- be matched).
- - WildFile xxx
- Will do a wild card match against files (directories will not
- be matched).
- - RegexDir xxx
- Will do a regular expression match against directories (files
- will not be matched).
- - RegexFile xxx
- Will do a regular expression match against files( directories
- will not be matched).
- - IgnoreCase = yes | no
- Will ignore case in wild card and regular expression matches.
- This is handy for Windows where filename case is not significant.
- - FsType = string
- where string is a filesystem type: ext2, jfs, ntfs, proc,
- reiserfs, xfs, usbdevfs, sysfs, smbfs, iso9660. For ext3
- systems, use ext2. You may have multiple fstype directives
- and thus permit multiple filesystem types. If the type
- specified on the fstype directive does not match the
- filesystem for a particular directive, that directory will
- not be backed up. This directive can be used to prevent
- backing up non-local filesystems.
- - HFS Plus Support = yes | no
- If set, Mac OS X resource forks will be saved and restored.
-- Label Type = ANSI | IBM | Bacula
- Implemented in Director Pool resource and in SD Device resource.
- If it is specified in the SD Device resource, it will take
- precedence over the value passed from the Director to the SD.
-- Check Labels = yes | no
- Implemented in the SD Device resource. If you intend to read
- ANSI or IBM labels, this *must* be set. Even if the volume
- is not ANSI labeled, you can set this to yes, and Bacula will
- check the label type.
-- Scripts Directory = <directory> name. Defines the directory from
- which Bacula scripts will be called for events. In fact, Bacula
- appends this name to the standard Python list of search directories,
- so the script could also be in any of the Python system directories.
-- In FileSet, you can exclude backing up of hardlinks (if you have
- a lot, it can be very expensive), by using:
- HardLinks = no
- in the Options section. Patch supplied by David R Bosso. Thanks.
-- MaximumPartSize = bytes (SD, Device resource)
- Defines the maximum part size.
-- Requires Mount = Yes/No (SD, Device resource)
- Defines if the device require to be mounted to be read, and if it
- must be written in a special way. If it set, the following directives
- must be defined in the same Device resource:
- + Mount Point = directory
- Directory where the device must be mounted.
- + Mount Command = name-string
- Command that must be executed to mount the device. Before the command
- is executed, %a is replaced with the Archive Device, and %m with the
- Mount Point.
- + Unmount Command = name-string
- Command that must be executed to unmount the device. Before the
- command is executed, %a is replaced with the Archive Device, and
- %m with the Mount Point.
- + Write Part Command = name-string
- Command that must be executed to write a part to the device. Before
- the command is executed, %a is replaced with the Archive Device, %m
- with the Mount Point, %n with the current part number (0-based),
- and %v with the current part filename.
- + Free Space Command = name-string
- Command that must be executed to check how much free space is left
- on the device. Before the command is executed, %a is replaced with
- the Archive Device, %m with the Mount Point, %n with the current part
- number (0-based), and %v with the current part filename.
-- Write Part After Job = Yes/No (DIR, Job Resource, and Schedule Resource)
- If this directive is set to yes (default no), a new part file will be
- created after the job is finished.
-- A pile of new Directives to support TLS. Please see the TLS chapter
- of the manual.
-
-New Commands:
-- "python restart" restarts the Python interpreter. Rather brutal, make
- sure no Python scripts are running. This permits you to change
- a Python script and get Bacula to use the new script.
-
-New configure options:
-- --with-libintl-prefix for defining alternate locations for
- the NLS internationalization libraries. Not normally required.
-- --datadir for defining where the language files will be installed
- required only if you do not want the default /usr/share.
-
-Items to note!!!
-- If you use an Autochanger, you MUST update your SD conf file
- to use the new Autochanger resource. Otherwise, certain commands
- such as "update slots" may not work.
-- You must add --with-python=[DIR] to the configure command line
- if you want Python support. Python 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 should be
- automatically detected if in the standard place.
-- When linking with --with-python, there are a few warnings that
- can be ignored.
-- You must either create a new catalog database or upgrade your
- old database.
-- The Director, Storage daemon, and File daemons are
- Deamons are not compatible with prior versions.
- All FDs must be upgraded at the same time.
-- You must add --with-openssl to the configure command line if
- you want TLS communications encryption support.
-- Disk seeking during restores does not yet work correctly in
- all cases, so it is turned off.
-- Note, with gcc (GCC) 4.0.1 20050727 (Red Hat 4.0.1-5) on an
- AMD64 CPU running 64 bit CentOS4, there is a compiler bug that
- generates bad code that causes Bacula to segment fault.
- Typically you will see this in the Storage daemon first. The
- solution is to compile Bacula ensuring that no optimization is
- turned on (normally it is -O2).
-
-
-Other Items:
-- Security fixes for temp files created in mtx-changer, during
- ./configure, and during making of Rescue disk.
-- A new script, dvd-handler, in the scripts directory,
- which is designed to be used as parameters to Write Part Command and
- Free Space Command. They need the dvd+rw-tools to be installed
- (http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/) AND, the growisofs
- program must be patched using the
- <bacula-source>/patches/dvd+rw-tools-5.21.4.10.8.bacula.patch
- You must have Python installed to run the scripts.
-- Part files support: File volumes can now be split into multiple
- files, called "parts".
-- For the details of the Python scripting support, please see the new
- Python Scripting chapter in the manual.
+ Release Notes for Bacula 1.39.28
+
+ Bacula code: Total files = 442 Total lines = 150,218 (*.h *.c *.in)
+
+
+Version 1.39.28 contains mainly bug fixes to 1.39.26. Please
+ see the ChangeLog for more details.
+
+==== IMPORTANT Encrypted Volume data may be unreadable ====
+- If you have been using the data encryption feature of 1.39.x, please
+ be aware that certain combinations of encryption and other options
+ with version 1.39.0 through 1.39.26 created Volume data that cannot
+ be restored. We strongly recommend that anyone using encryption
+ carefully review his/her backups and at a minium do a Full backup
+ with 1.39.28 of all encrypted data. Robert Nelson has identified
+ and fixed it as follows:
+ As of 1.39.27:
+ No filters = Works fine
+ Sparse = Works fine
+ Compression = Works fine
+ Encryption = Works fine
+ Sparse + Compression = Works fine
+
+ Sparse + Encryption = Restore broken
+ Sparse + Compression + Encryption = Restore broken
+ Compression + Encryption = Restore broken
+
+ As of 1.39.28:
+ All combinations work fine.
+
+==== IMPORTANT a stock SuSE 10.1 kernel may crash =====
+- A stock SuSE 10.1 kernel may crash when Bacula runs and accesses
+ the tape drive. Workaround, load a Fedora kernel, which works fine,
+ or load the SuSE 10.2 rc5 kernel which also works fine.
+
+==== IMPORTANT Catalog update required =====
+- The database format has been updated from what was used in
+ Bacula 1.38.x. You must manually update your database before
+ running Bacula 1.39.x or higher. Please backup your previous
+ version of the database before running the update. The update
+ script will be automatically installed in your scripts directory,
+ or can also be found in <bacula-source>/src/cats. It is called:
+
+ ./update_bacula_tables
+
+ It is necessary to run it only once the first time you move to
+ a 1.39.x beta or to 1.40.0. Upgrading the Bacula version
+ thereafter does not require updating the database again.
+ Depending on the size of your database the script make take a
+ bit of time, to run, but in general, it should be very fast.
+
+==== IMPORTANT DVD Volume format changed ====
+- The current Volume format written by 1.39.22 is different from
+ the format written by previous versions. The two formats
+ are not compatible. Thus any DVDs written prior to 1.39.22 will
+ be unreadable by version 1.39.22.
+
+==== IMPORTANT miscellaneous ====
+- The Gnome console program (gconsole) no longer functions as it
+ should. If you have multiple catalogs, you will need to select
+ the catalog (this I will fix). More importantly, in restore
+ mode, the restore tree is no longer shown in the left pane. I
+ suspect this is due to incompatible changes in the GTK+ API,
+ and hence have given up on gnome and gtk+, as this has already
+ happened several times previously. At some point there
+ will be a new GUI console.
+- The bacula-dir.conf directive Accept Any Volume has been
+ removed because it was never implemented. You must delete all
+ occurrence of this directive for the Director to run.
+- The --mandir ./configure option now points to the top level man
+ directory. The man files will be installed under mandir/man8 and
+ mandir/man1 as appropriate.
+- The "Accept Any Volume" directive has been removed. It was never
+ implemented. Bacula will always accept any valid tape that is in
+ the drive for appending.
+- You *should* be able to use 1.38.x FDs with version 1.39.18 Director
+ and SD providing you do not use any of the new features (runscript,
+ data encryption). It seems to work here, but we do not guarantee it.
+- Your Director and SD must be simultaneously upgraded.
+- The restore command no longer uses the MediaType as the primary method
+ of finding a suitable Storage device. Normally it will select the last
+ device used to write a Volume. If no storage device is defined, it
+ will use the old algorithm which selects the first Storage resource
+ with the correct MediaType.
+- The MD5/SHA1 hash codes kept in the database are now kept in a binary
+ format compatible with the rest of the world. If you are running verify
+ jobs, you *must* do an InitCatalog or all files will show an MD5
+ difference. Also, authentication uses the new algorithm by
+ default, but *should* accept connections from older components (FD) using
+ the old non-compatible algorithm. This has been tested, but more
+ more testing is still needed.
+
+==== IMPORTANT new Win32 install procedure =====
+ For Win32 migrations from versions prior to 1.39.0 nothing special
+ needs to be done to upgrade. Everything should be taken care of
+ automatically. The only thing not done is to delete the old C:\Bacula
+ directory (mostly out of paranoia, we can change that prior to release if
+ everyone is comfortable with it).
+
+ Prior to using the current installer, if you used a version of the beta
+ prior to 1.39.26, you must do one of the following three things:
+
+ 1) Uninstall prior beta version and select the option to delete
+ the configuration and state files. This will get rid of the bogus
+ configuration files. Reinstall the new 1.39.26 version.
+
+ 2) Manually copy the *.conf files from C:\Bacula\bin to
+ C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Bacula.
+
+ 3) Manually edit the *.conf files in C:\Documents and
+ Settings\All Users\Application Data\Bacula. The links in the Bacula menu
+ can be used to avoid having to enter that ugly path.
+
+ After one of these has been done the upgrade should work fine.
+
+
+New Features in 1.40.0:
+- Relative path specifications (i.e. ../xxx) are now permitted in
+ the restore cd command.
+- When running multiple simultaneous jobs, most jobs that use spooling
+ will now finish faster due to a mutex optimization made by Eric
+ Bollengier.
+- Conf files containing UTF-8 marker at the head of the file as well as
+ conf files containing Window cr/lf and Mac cr line termination characters
+ are now accepted thanks to Robert Nelson.
+- Windows tray status windows are scrollable and resizable.
+- Win32 external script excution is much more flexible -- handles
+ spaces in names better, ...
+- Lots of DVD fixes -- I think they now work!
+- Fix opening of database in a restricted console to respect
+ any Catalog ACL.
+- Permit multiple console/director resources in bconsole.conf.
+ patch from Carsten Paeth calle@calle.in-berlin.de
+- Character substitution in Job/JobDefs WriteBootStrap.
+ from Eric Bollengier.
+- Apply patch supplied in bug #656 to pass priority field
+ in the run dialog to the Director in gnome console.
+- Add support of encrypted data stream to bscan from Eric.
+ display data_len instead of data content (may be binary)
+- Add Enabled=xxx on update slots command.
+- Add host:port to connect failure messages to FD and SD from Dir
+- Add WhereACL to console ACL list. If nothing is specified, only
+ the default is permitted for restore. Otherwise, *all* allows any
+ path, or you can specify permitted paths. This should allow control
+ over where users can restore files. This is untested.
+- Install man pages with 'make install'
+- Add Media.Enabled flag to client backups for dotcmds.c
+- Enforce Media.Enabled=1 for a current restore to work
+- Require restore case 3 to have sqlquery permission to work.
+- The basic features of Migration are now complete.
+- There is a Migration chapter in the doc.
+ http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Migration.html
+- There is an Encryption chapter in the doc.
+ http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Bacula_Data_Encryption.html
+- Additional support for removable devices. See the
+ Requires Mount, Mount Point, Mount Command, and Unmount
+ Commands in the Storage daemon configuration chapter:
+ http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Storage_Daemon_Configuratio.html
+ Also see the Edit Codes for Mount and Unmount Directives in the
+ same chapter.
+- Add -n option to bconsole to turn off conio.
+- The bytes field in the terminated jobs part of the status
+ command now reports in KB, MB, ... units.
+- When not descending into a directory, print the File= name that
+ triggered it -- makes why not descending a bit clearer
+- Do not unload autochanger when doing "update slots"
+- Implement mount command for autochanger
+- Fix bug #462 incorrect error message printed when client script called
+ from File= was not found.
+- Fix bug #558 (waiting for feedback) where Bacula needs too much time to
+ do a rewind on Solaris when no tape is in the drive (Solaris does not
+ have the detailed errno found on Linux). Added Solaris specific code.
+ Note, this may apply to other OSes as well.
+- Switch the Win32 build from using Microsoft C++ to using mingw32
+ cross-compiling. The initial work was done by Howard Thomson,
+ then tweaked by me. Robert Nelson then totally reworked the
+ cross-compiling code so that it not only cross-compiles, but
+ also compiles on Visual Studio, and at the same time, he added
+ all the current Unix features to the FD, such as selection on
+ drives, encryption support, building *all* the tools, ...
+ Finally, he also ported the Director and the Storage daemon to
+ Win32.
+- Data encryption done in the Client is now supported due to code
+ submitted by Landon Fuller.
+- Bacula restore and bextract can now extract non-portable Win32 data to
+ any client (including Unix/Linux clients). Of course, in doing so,
+ the Microsoft specific permissions and ACLs will be lost. Thanks
+ to Thorsten Engel for this code.
+- The 260 character limitation for Win32 paths name lengths is now
+ eliminated thanks to Thorsten Engel.
+- Eric Bollengier wrote new RunScript directives that includes
+ the old RunBefore/AfterJob and ClientRunBefore/AfterJob features
+ plus a *lot* more, allowing you to control just about every aspect
+ of running scripts. See the manual for detailed documentation.
+ http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Configuring_Director.html#5227
+- The examples directory has a new bacula_mail_summary.sh file that
+ creates a single email summary of any number of jobs. Submitted by
+ Andrew J. Millar.
+- SunOS ACLs should now work thanks to a patch from David Duchscher.
+- The database Id records should be 32/64 bit independent now. 64 bits
+ can be enabled by changing one define, but this has never been tested.
+- Apply days keyword patch from Alexander.Bergolth at wu-wien.ac.at
+ If this patch is applied, the number of days can be specified with
+ "list nextvol days=xx"
+ or
+ "status dir days=xx"
+ My use case is to be able to preview the next scheduled job (and the
+ next tape to be used) on Fridays if there are no scheduled jobs during
+ the weekend. This patch was probably back ported to 1.38.x
+- Add nagios plugin to the examples directory. Submitted by
+ Christian Masopust.
+- Modify most restore error messages to be queued so that they
+ appear at the end of the job rather than mixed with the restore
+ listing where they could be "lost".
+- Apply patch supplied by user (slightly modified) to fix
+ correct detection of holes in block devices and FIFOs.
+ Bug # 506.
+- Added a report.pl program to the examples directory from Jonas Bjorklund.
+- Add enable/disable job=<job-name>. This command prevents
+ the specified job from being scheduled. Even when disabled,
+ the job can be manually started from the console.
+- Add two new queries to query.sql provided by Arno. One
+ list volumes known to the Storage device, and the other
+ lists volumes possibly needing replacement (error, ...).
+- Implement new code for changing userid and group at startup. This
+ should get Bacula into the correct groups.
+- Implement support for removable filesystems.
+- Transfer rates are now presented in a more readable format thanks
+ to a user submission.
+- SD is now aware of what volumes are mounted. More information is printed
+ in the Status report.
+- The Pool Maximum Volumes directive is now respected in all places.
+- A Storage device can now be specified in a Pool resource. It will override
+ all other Storage specifications.
+- Most but not all directives accept true/false in place of yes/no.
+- A patch from Karl Hakimian that reads JobIds, FileIndexes
+ from a database table for restore.
+- There are a number of new tables. Some such as the Location table are
+ designed for user use in doing Volume Management software.
+- Maximum Changer Wait, Maximum Open Wait, Maximum Rewind Wait to
+ accept time qualifiers.
+- Implement jobuid to replace old usage of job in keywords as
+ suggested by Eric Bollengier.
+- Apply patch for enhancing wait from Eric Bollengier. One can now:
+ wait (wait for all jobs to stop)
+ wait jobid=nn
+ wait jobuid=unique id
+ wait job=job-name
+- Implement write variables for Python to set Priority (anytime), and
+ Job Level, only during JobInit event.
+- Use the keyword ujobid to mean the unique job id; job or jobname
+ to mean the Job name given on the Name directive, and jobid to
+ be the numeric (non-unique) job id.
+- Allow the SD to use multiple drives during a backup/restore (only
+ one at a time). This is not well tested.
+- Integrate addition of line count limitation to bsmtp -l from
+ Sebastian Stark <stark at tuebingen.mpg.de>
+- Split the bacula start/start script into four files:
+ bacula -- starts and stops calling other scripts
+ bacula-ctl-dir -- starts/stops the director
+ bacula-ctl-fd -- starts/stops the File daemon
+ bacula-ctl-sd -- starts/stops the Storage daemon
+- Remove automatic case folding on Windows FDs. You must
+ explicitly use the 'Ignore Case = yes' option.
+- Implement wild program in tools directory for testing
+ wild-cards. Almost identical to the regex program.
+- Use the new bregex.c to implement Regex expressions on Win32.
+- Apply patch from Christopher Hull
+ - Allow multiple connections to database with different
+ parameters.
+ - Invalidate the scheduler when doing a reload. Fixes seg
+ fault, but still 60 second window.
+ - Additional info in Reschedule message.
+ - Use set_jcr_job_status() everywhere to prevent loss of
+ cancel, error.
+ - Display peer IP in FD if error from connecting DIR.
+ - Don't increment file count for DIRBEGIN.
+ - Replace illegal characters in Win32 filename by _.
+ - Add SE_CREATE_PERMANENT_NAME privilege in Win32.
+ - Hash hard link filenames rather than linked list (performance).
+ - Fix for security failure in chdir on Win32.
+ - Add CreateDirectoryA/W win32 API entry points.
+- programs to duplicate Bacula's base64 algorithm using standard
+ routines. This fixes bugs #296, and 565. Patch submitted by
+ author of bug #565.
+- Fixes to reloading the Dir conf file from Eric Bollengier and Christopher
+ Hull.
+- Modify LICENSE to correct some problems pointed out by Debian.
+- Apply a patch submitted by cesarb in bug #606 to implement O_NOATIME support.
+ O_NOATIME is a open() flag which makes it possible to read a file without
+ updating the inode atime (and also without the inode ctime update which
+ happens if you try to set the atime back to its previous value). It also
+ prevents a race condition when two programs are reading the same file, but
+ only one does not want to change the atime. It's most useful for backup
+ programs and file integrity checkers (and bacula can fit on both
+ categories).
+ You enable it in the Bacula FileSet Options resource by setting:
+ noatime = yes
+ The effect of this option is similar to the keepatime option except
+ it is more efficient and avoids modifying ctime.
+- Implement a pile of new man pages contributed by Jose Tallon.
+- Implement a number of user supplied patches for DVD writing.
+- Modify the database format for handling Migration jobs:
+ Add PriorJobId, RealEndTime to Job table
+ Delete MAC table
+ Remove Stripe from JobMedia record (not used, wasting space)
+ Add ScratchPoolId, RecyclePoolId, Enabled to Media record
+ Add Cost to Location table.
+ Enabled to Media table and Location table.
+- Security: harden authentication failure in FD by single threading errors
+ and forcing a 6 second wait.
+- If using GCC (actually g++) add the following compiler flags
+ -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti
+- Turn on new bsnprintf() code. This could cause print output
+ to look different. The reason for this code is to eliminate the
+ security problems associated with using the system libraries
+ print routines.
+- Implement job report that indicates where Storage and Pool
+ came from -- with overrides and Pool storage and NextPool,
+ it is all very complicated.
+- Add more detail (Storage, Device) to list of volumes printed
+ for restore.
+- Add new VOLMGMT message class. No messages are yet sent with this
+ class.
+- Add Catalog message destination in Messages resource that puts the
+ job report in the Log database table.
+- Spend a lot of time integrating mkcdrec with the rescue disk.
+- Add spooling/despooling info in status output of SD.
+- Add Comment field to llist of a volume.
+- Allow true/false in some yes/no questions.
+- Implement update volume enable=(on|off|true|false|archived|0|1|2)
+
+Additional Features Added for Win32:
+
+Added DriveType directive to the Director's Include Option FileSet
+resource. Allowed values are: fixed, removable, cdrom, and remote. There
+is only an implementation for Windows because it is the only platform that
+has the concept of drives.
+
+Adds EnhancedWild directive to the Director's Include Option FileSet
+resource. Allowed values are: yes and no.
+
+When EnhancedWild is enabled then the processing of the
+Wild, WildDir and WildFile is changed in the following ways.
+
+ Patterns conform to Posix
+ \ is not a special character in character classification []
+ To match a - it must be the first or last character
+ To match a ] it must be the first character
+
+ fnmatch option FNM_FILE_NAME is specified * doesn't match a /
+ so it won't match multiple directory levels in a path
+
+Relative WildFile patterns (ones without a leading /) match
+against the filename portion. This in combination with the
+FNM_FILE_NAME fnmatch() flag makes directives such as WildFile =
+abc*.def work as expected.
+
+Adds support for the shell's feature of brace expansion.
+
+Here is an example where braces allow 24 lines to be expressed in 5.
+
+# Exclude directories full of lots and lots of useless little files
+WildDir = "[A-Z]:/{Documents and
+Settings,{WINNT,Windows}/Profiles}/*/Cookies"
+WildDir = "[A-Z]:/{Documents and
+Settings,{WINNT,Windows}/Profiles}/*/Recent"
+WildDir = "[A-Z]:/{Documents and Settings,{WINNT,Windows}/Profiles}/*/{Local
+Settings,LOCALS~1}/History"
+WildDir = "[A-Z]:/{Documents and Settings,{WINNT,Windows}/Profiles}/*/{Local
+Settings,LOCALS~1}/Temp"
+WildDir = "[A-Z]:/{Documents and Settings,{WINNT,Windows}/Profiles}/*/{Local
+Settings,LOCALS~1}/Temporary Internet Files"
