Kern's ToDo List
- 12 November 2006
+ 12 May 2007
-Major development:
-Project Developer
-======= =========
Document:
- !!! Cannot restore two jobs a the same time that were
- Document more precisely how to use master keys -- especially
for disaster recovery.
+Professional Needs:
+- Migration from other vendors
+ - Date change
+ - Path change
+- Filesystem types
+- Backup conf/exe (all daemons)
+- Backup up system state
+- Detect state change of system (verify)
Priority:
+- How does restore JobId=nnn work? (Dirk)
+- What does: restore select fileset="TestSet" client="workplay-fd" pool="Default"
+> storage="File2" before="2007-02-05 23:05:04" do? (Dirk)
+
+- Implement update jobid=
+- Mention Eric and Marc's work + Marc's doc.
+- Add TLS to bat
+- When Pool specifies Storage command override does not work.
+- Implement wait_for_sysop() message display in wait_for_device(), which
+ now prints warnings too often.
+
- Ensure that each device in an Autochanger has a different
Device Index.
- Add Catalog = to Pool resource so that pools will exist
02-Feb 11:00 btape: Fatal Error because: Bacula interrupted by signal 11: Segmentation violation
Kaboom! btape, btape got signal 11. Attempting traceback.
-- Why the heck doesn't bacula drop root priviledges before connecting to
- the DB?
- Ensure that moving a purged Volume in ua_purge.c to the RecyclePool
does the right thing.
- Why doesn't @"xxx abc" work in a conf file?
- Figure out some way to "automatically" backup conf changes.
-- Look at using posix_fadvise(2) for backups -- see bug #751.
- Possibly add the code at findlib/bfile.c:795
- Add the OS version back to the Win32 client info.
- Restarted jobs have a NULL in the from field.
- Modify SD status command to indicate when the SD is writing
to a DVD (the device is not open -- see bug #732).
- Look at the possibility of adding "SET NAMES UTF8" for MySQL,
and possibly changing the blobs into varchar.
-- Check if gnome-console works with TLS.
- Ensure that the SD re-reads the Media record if the JobFiles
does not match -- it may have been updated by another job.
- Look at moving the Storage directive from the Job to the
Pool in the default conf files.
-- Test FIFO backup/restore -- make regression
- Doc items
- Test Volume compatibility between machine architectures
- Encryption documentation
Projects:
+- Average tape size from Eric
+ SELECT COALESCE(media_avg_size.volavg,0) * count(Media.MediaId) AS volmax, GROUP BY Media.MediaType, Media.PoolId, media_avg_size.volavg
+ count(Media.MediaId) AS volnum,
+ sum(Media.VolBytes) AS voltotal,
+ Media.PoolId AS PoolId,
+ Media.MediaType AS MediaType
+ FROM Media
+ LEFT JOIN (SELECT avg(Media.VolBytes) AS volavg,
+ Media.MediaType AS MediaType
+ FROM Media
+ WHERE Media.VolStatus = 'Full'
+ GROUP BY Media.MediaType
+ ) AS media_avg_size ON (Media.MediaType = media_avg_size.MediaType)
+ GROUP BY Media.MediaType, Media.PoolId, media_avg_size.volavg
- GUI
- Admin
- Management reports
- Incremental backup -- rsync, Stow
-
-
For next release:
- Look at mondo/mindi
- Don't restore Solaris Door files:
=== Done
-- Make sure that all do_prompt() calls in Dir check for
- -1 (error) and -2 (cancel) returns.
-- Fix foreach_jcr() to have free_jcr() inside next().
- jcr=jcr_walk_start();
- for ( ; jcr; (jcr=jcr_walk_next(jcr)) )
- ...
- jcr_walk_end(jcr);
-- A Volume taken from Scratch should take on the retention period
- of the new pool.
-- Correct doc for Maximum Changer Wait (and others) accepting only
- integers.
-- Implement status that shows why a job is being held in reserve, or
- rather why none of the drives are suitable.
-- Implement a way to disable a drive (so you can use the second
- drive of an autochanger, and the first one will not be used or
- even defined).
-- Make sure Maximum Volumes is respected in Pools when adding
- Volumes (e.g. when pulling a Scratch volume).
-- Keep same dcr when switching device ...
-- Implement code that makes the Dir aware that a drive is an
- autochanger (so the user doesn't need to use the Autochanger = yes
- directive).
-- Make catalog respect ACL.
-- Add recycle count to Media record.
-- Add initial write date to Media record.
-- Fix store_yesno to be store_bitmask.

-- Make hardlink code at line 240 of find_one.c use binary search.

-- Make Dir and SD authentication errors single threaded.
-- Fix catreq.c digestbuf at line 411 in src/dird/catreq.c
-- Make base64.c (bin_to_base64) take a buffer length

- and verify that other buffers cannot overrun.
-- Implement VolumeState as discussed with Arno.
-- Add LocationId to update volume
-- Add LocationLog
- LogId
- Date
- User text
- MediaId
- LocationId
- NewState???
-- Add Comment to Media record
-- Fix auth compatibility with 1.38
-- Update dbcheck to include Log table
-- Update llist to include new fields.
-- Make unmount unload autochanger. Make mount load slot.
-- Fix bscan to report the JobType when restoring a job.
-- Fix wx-console scanning problem with commas in names.
-- Add manpages to the list of directories for make install. Notify
- Scott
-- Add bconsole option to use stdin/out instead of conio.
-- Fix ClientRunBefore/AfterJob compatibility.
-- Ensure that connection to daemon failure always indicates what
- daemon it was trying to connect to.
-- Freespace on DVD requested over and over even with no intervening
- writes.
-- .update volume [enabled|disabled|*see below]

-- Restricted consoles start in the Default catalog even if it
- is not permitted.
-- When reading through parts on the DVD, the DVD is mounted and
- unmounted for each part.
-- Make sure that the restore options don't permit "seeing" other
- Client's job data.
-- Restore of a raw drive should not try to check the volume size.
-- Lock tape drive door when open()
-- Make release unload any autochanger.
-- Arno's reservation deadlock.
-- Eric's SD patch
-- Make sure the new level=Full syntax is used in all
- example conf files (especially in the manual).
-- Fix prog copyright (SD) all other files.
-- Document need for UTF-8 format
-- Try turning on disk seek code.
-- Some users claim that they must do two prune commands to get a
- Volume marked as purged.
-- Document fact that CatalogACL now needed for Tray monitor (fixed).
-- If you have two Catalogs, it will take the first one.
-- Migration Volume span bug
-- Rescue release

+- Look at using posix_fadvise(2) for backups -- see bug #751.
+ Possibly add the code at findlib/bfile.c:795
+/* TCP socket options */
+#define TCP_KEEPIDLE 4 /* Start keeplives after this period */
+- Fix bnet_connect() code to set a timer and to use time to
+ measure the time.
+- Implement 4th argument to make_catalog_backup that passes hostname.
+- Test FIFO backup/restore -- make regression
+- Please mount volume "xxx" on Storage device ... should also list
+ Pool and MediaType in case user needs to create a new volume.
+- On restore add Restore Client, Original Client.

+- Check if gnome-console works with TLS.
+- the director seg faulted when I omitted the pool directive from a
+ job resource. I was experimenting and thought it redundant that I had
+ specified Pool, Full Backup Pool. and Differential Backup Pool. but
+ apparently not. This happened when I removed the pool directive and
+ started the director.
+- Add Where: client:/.... to restore job report.
