Version 1.37 Kern (see below)
========================================================
- Document that ChangerDevice is used for Alert command.
For 1.37:
+- --without-openssl breaks at least on Solaris.
- Python:
- Make a callback when Rerun failed levels is called.
- Give Python program access to Scheduled jobs.
- Implement Maximum Job Spool Size
- Remove all old Device resource code in Dir and code to pass it
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.
-
+- Fix the Rescue CDROM.
Maybe in 1.37:
+- Print more info when bextract -p accepts a bad block.
+- To mark files as deleted, run essentially a Verify to disk, and
+ when a file is found missing (MarkId != JobId), then create
+ a new File record with FileIndex == -1. This could be done
+ by the FD at the same time as the backup.
- Fix FD JobType to be set before RunBeforeJob in FD.
- Look at adding full Volume and Pool information to a Volume
label so that bscan can get *all* the info.
format string. Then I have the tape labeled automatically with weekday
name in the correct language.

+- Yes, that is surely the case. I probably should turn those into Warning
+ errors. In addition, you just made me think that it might not be bad to
+ add an option to check the file size after backing up the file and
+ report if it changes. This would be done as an option because it would
+ add extra overhead.
+
+ Kern, good idea. If you do do that, mention in the output: file
+ shrunk, or file expanded, just to make it obvious to the user
+ (without having to the refer to file size), just how the file size
+ changed.
+
+ Would this option be for all file, or just one file? Or a fileset?
- Make output from status use html table tags for nicely
presenting in a browser.
- Can one write tapes faster with 8192 byte block sizes?
even after Files are pruned.
- Delete Stripe and Copy from VolParams to save space.
- Fix option 2 of restore -- list where file is backed up -- require Client,
- then list last 20 backups.
\ No newline at end of file
+ then list last 20 backups.
+- Finish implementation of passing all Storage and Device needs to
+ the SD.
+- Move test for max wait time exceeded in job.c up -- Peter's idea.
