Kern's ToDo List
- 11 March 2005
+ 09 April 2005
Major development:
Project Developer
1.37 Major Projects:
#3 Migration (Move, Copy, Archive Jobs)
-#4 Embedded Python Scripting
- (Implemented in Dir/SD)
#7 Single Job Writing to Multiple Storage Devices
+ (probably not)
## Integrate web-bacula into a new Bacula project with
bimagemgr.
## Consider moving docs to their own project.
+## Move rescue to its own project.
Autochangers:
- 3. Prevent two drives requesting the same Volume in any given
in an Autochanger.
- 7. Implement new Console commands to allow offlining/reserving drives,
and possibly manipulating the autochanger (much asked for).
+- Make "update slots" when pointing to Autochanger, remove
+ all Volumes from other drives. "update slots all-drives"?
For 1.37:
-- Add disk seeking on restore.
-- If the user puts "Purge Oldest Volume = yes" or "Recycle Oldest Volume = yes"
- and there is only one volume in the pool, refuse to do it -- otherwise
- he fills the Volume, then immediately starts reusing it.
+- Look at dird_conf.c:1000: warning: `int size'
+ might be used uninitialized in this function
+- Make a callback when Rerun failed levels is called.
+- Give Python program access to Scheduled jobs.
+- Implement some way to turn off automatic pruning in Jobs.
+- Implement a way an Admin Job can prune, possibly multiple
+ clients -- Python script?
- Implement "NewVolumeEachJob = yes|no" in Dir.
-- Make "update slots" when pointing to Autochanger, remove
- all Volumes from other drives. "update slots all-drives"?
-- Add Python writable variable for changing the Priority,
- Client, Storage, JobStatus (error), ...
-- SD Python
- - Solicit Events
- FD Python
- Python script to save with Python, not save, save with Bacula.
- Python script to do backup.
- Look at adding full Volume and Pool information to a Volume
label so that bscan can get *all* the info.
- Implement Maximum Job Spool Size
-- 28-Mar 23:19 rufus-sd: acquire.c:379 Device "DDS-4" (/dev/nst0)
- is busy reading. Job 6 canceled.
- Remove all old Device resource code in Dir and code to pass it
- back in SD.
-- Fix code to either handle updating NumVol or to calculate it in
- Dir next_vol.c
+ back in SD -- better, rework it to pass back device statistics.
- Finish implementation of passing all Storage and Device needs to
the SD.
- Check locking of resources -- be sure to lock devices where previously
resources were locked.
- Add global lock on all devices when creating a device structure.
-- Remove separate thread for opening devices in SD. On the other
- hand, don't block waiting for open() for devices.
- Make sure that Python has access to Client address/port so that
it can check if Clients are alive.
-- Implement copies and stripes.
+- Cleanup and complete Python scripting.
+ - What events?
+ - Change the Priority, Client, Storage, JobStatus (error)
+ at the start of a job.
Maybe in 1.37:
+- If the user puts "Purge Oldest Volume = yes" or "Recycle Oldest Volume = yes"
+ and there is only one volume in the pool, refuse to do it -- otherwise
+ he fills the Volume, then immediately starts reusing it.
+- Implement copies and stripes.
+- Add history file to console.
+- Each file on tape creates a JobMedia record. Peter has 4 million
+ files spread over 10000 tape files and four tapes. A restore takes
+ 16 hours to build the restore list.
- By the way: on page http://www.bacula.org/?page=tapedrives , at the
bottom, the link to "Tape Testing Chapter" is broken. It goes to
/html-manual/... while the others point to /rel-manual/...
- A HOLD command to stop all jobs from starting.
- A PAUSE command to pause all running jobs ==> release the
drive.
+- Media Type = LTO,LTO-2,LTO-3
+ Media Type Read = LTO,LTO2,LTO3
+ Media Type Write = LTO2, LTO3

=== From Carsten Menke <bootsy52@gmx.net>
Following is a list of what I think in the situations where I'm faced with,
recycled and no label created. This happens when using
autolabeling -- even when Python doesn't generate the name.
- Scratch Pool where the volumes can be re-assigned to any Pool.
+- 28-Mar 23:19 rufus-sd: acquire.c:379 Device "DDS-4" (/dev/nst0)
+ is busy reading. Job 6 canceled.
+- Remove separate thread for opening devices in SD. On the other
+ hand, don't block waiting for open() for devices.
+- Fix code to either handle updating NumVol or to calculate it in
+ Dir next_vol.c
+- Ensure that you cannot exclude a directory or a file explicitly
+ Included with File.
+#4 Embedded Python Scripting
+ (Implemented in Dir/SD/FD)
+- Add Python writable variable for changing the Priority,
+ Client, Storage, JobStatus (error), ...
+- SD Python
+ - Solicit Events
+- Add disk seeking on restore; turn off seek on tapes.
