Incremented db version. -- Changed a few subroutine names concerning dates to be more descriptive. -- Fixed several places where the last filename was not stored in JCR in - FD verify_vol.c and restore.c -- Major update to dbcheck. Unfortunately I used subselects, which work - perfectly fine in SQLite, but not at all in MySQL. I must now rework - it for MySQL. What a pain! -- Removed "Database found" from configure output. It was no longer used or valid. -- Corrected doc --working-dir => --with-working-dir Thanks to Tuck for - reporting this. -- Added the database name to the error message for mismatched DB version. -- Commented out GMP and CWEB from configure as they are not currently used. - -General: from kes09Nov02 -- Converted the manual over to a new format written in wml. This - gives navigation buttons on the top and bottom of each page - as well as a standard page size. -- Updated the main Web site, providing a menu bar to the left - and much better organization and presentation of the information. -- Added code to recognize a Volume written with a larger block - size than specified. The code automatically adjusts. - -Changes submitted this submission: -- Created a new scripts directory and moved most of the scripts - previously in the main directory there. This cleans things up - quite a bit. -- Moved the randpass stuff into autoconf. -- ensure that the generic make_bacula_tables and drop_bacula_tables - are installed. -- Added code to filed to allow it to be run from inetd. Just add the - -i option. I have not tested it. - -General: from kes30Oct02 -- Alex found a problem with GZIP compression -- fixed. -- bacula stript fixes. -- Segment fault in Director fixed. -- Added openbsd to platforms - -Changes submitted this submission: -- GZIP compression was broken for large files due to a variable that - is changed during the compression. This was relatively easy to fix. - However, there were a number of fixes required to make GZIP and SPARSE - files work together. Found one more place in bextract where SPARSE_GZIP - testing was missing. -- During testing of the above, I ran into the restore problem of multiple - FileSet records. Fixed by including the FileSetId and the MD5 on the - selection string, then always using the FileSetId. It is a bit - confusing for the user, but ... -- Francis found a problem with bacula.in (fixed - thanks) -- I found another problem with bacula.in, so now it REALLY should work - on most systems. -- Added the Replace options code for restores. Not tested. -- Fixed an ugly stack overrun bug in reading the config file - that has been in for a long time. I found this in testing on FreeBSD - where the Director seg faulted. - -General: from kes29Oct02 -- Major change to the bnet communications routines. - -Changes submitted this submission: -- Modified the bacula script to use pid files, so this script should - now work on more platforms. Updated devel_bacula as well. -- Added the full GNU hostname on the configuration print output. -- Added gettimeofday() to configure, and tweaked a few variables for - OpenBSD. -- Added a chapter to the manual on Porting Bacula to other platforms. -- Documented in Tips how to use the WriteBootstrap record. -- Modified bc_types.h to error if 64 bit types are not found. -- Pass replace option for restore to the FD (no code to use it yet). -- Modify the FD to pass back the GNU OS string as well as the DISTNAME - and DISTVER. This needs to be put in the Client record in the catalog. -- Major reworking of the bnet routines to eliminate the zero length which - previously indicated a signal. This risks to create some subtle communications - bugs. The changes now permit blank lines to be sent from the user to the - Director. -- Found and corrected a few more places where the Win32 attributes were not - being recognized. -- Permit spaces in the Where string (restore) by bashing/unbashing them. -- Handle quotes correctly in the Console program (actually Dir ua code). - Previously they were not handled in the middle of a string. -- Corrected two error message (error reading file), which previously stated - it was a network error. -- Reworked the files in the binary Windows release. Removed unused programs - and added a README with the copyright as suggested by John. Also added - console.exe to the release. -- Found and corrected an autoloader mount problem where the wrong tape - was specified. Previously it looped, then gave up. Now it correctly - detects the volume is not correct and zaps the Slot in the catalog. - -General: from kes23Oct02 -- I have mainly worked on getting all the details of a Restore - to work correctly (new tape format, support for Win32 - attributes, ...) -- Trademarked name Bacula. -- Implement Bacula tape format 11 (1.0 Immortal). This format - will be maintained forever. -- Accept Any Volume is yes by default. This modifies Bacula's behavior - when writing tapes. - -Changes submitted this submission: -- Corrected a bug on FreeBSD where CFLAGS would get a "yes". I was - unable to reproduce this, but a user confirmed the correction. - It was a problem with detection of largefile support, which FreeBSD - has by default. -- Added a new "license" chapter in the manual. Re-licensed a number of - library routines (bnet.c, hmac.c md5.c, cram-md5, ...) with LGPL so that they - can be used in proprietary software to access Bacula if so desired. -- Move Director's AutoChanger doc to correct location (in Storage - resource). -- Document why trademark (to protect compatibility). -- Implement and turned on Bacula tape format 11 (also BB02). This - format moves the VolSessionId and VolSessionTime from each record - header into the Block header. This is MUCH more efficient when reading - records as now whole blocks can be skipped. - Also added JobStatus in End Of Session record, and added MD5 for - FileSet, which is necessary to insure uniqueness. -- Implement a new Bacula time format for btime_t. It is Epoch time - in microseconds (i.e. base 1 Jan 1970 in microseconds). - This replaces previous floating point times. -- Added Win32 extended attributes. In doing so, I moved all attribute - handling from src/lib into src/findlib. Added new streams for - Win32 attributes and for GZIP Win32 attributes. -- Modified "Accept Any Volume" so that it really permits any volume - in the pool to be mounted. -- Removed "Mount Anonymous Volumes" from Storage daemon config. -- Implemented sparse files. You must add "sparse=yes" on the include line - for it to be enabled. -- Print "None" in backup summary rather than 0.0% if there is no compression - enabled. -- Improved error checking in daemon connection/authentication code to prevent - garbage data from harming a Bacula daemon. -- All daemon tools MUST have a config file. -- Completely strip drive specification on Win32 if a Where prefix is specified. -- Corrected DB info for writing to files. Now the File Address is stored - in File-Block variables in the catalog. -- All Storage daemon tools now use common code for acquiring/reading - Volumes. -- If a device is unmounted, report it even if the device is not open. This - will help inform users who have BLOCKED Bacula by unmounting a drive. - - -============================================================================= -2002-10-12 Version 1.26 (10Oct02) -General: from kes10Oct02 -- Changed Job name conventions to avoid : which is an illegal - character on Windows. - -Changes submitted this submission: -- Added check for inet_pton to configure.in. If it does not - exist (e.g. Windows) use inet_aton -- Documentation on GZIP. -- Another restore doc example. -- Documented btape fill command. -- Set default restore directory from /tmp to /tmp/bacula-restores -- Add additional no find error messages to sql_get.c -- Creating a bootstrap file on Windows failed because the Job name - contained colons which are illegal on Windows. Replaced the - colons with periods. This corrects the Windows restore problem. -- Print number of files to be restored in "restore" command. -- On Windows systems, if there is a prefix, completely eliminate - any drive: at the beginning of a path. -- Minor corrections to the tree routines to handle Windows - files such as c:/ better. Previously it insisted on /c:/, which - would then not be found in the catalog for a "dir" command. -- Modified cd command in restore to try /c: if c: fails. -- Add a new S_ISWIN32 bit to the st_mode word so that low level - routines that create files do not print error messages. -- More work must be done to restore all Windows files correctly. - Currently the following bits are not handled: - Archive - Hidden - System - Also, all the dates are not properly restored. - -General: from kes09Oct02 -- More documentation. -- Implemented new fill command in btape that permits filling - a tape and then reading it back to ensure that it works - with Bacula. - -Changes submitted this submission: -- Added ReadBytes to JCR, which contains Job bytes read by - FD, JobBytes contains compressed output of FD. -- Modified FD to pass back JobStatus, ReadBytes, JobBytes, ... - for backup jobs. This is upward compatible. -- Modified backup termination status report to contain the - compression ratio 100 * (1 - compressed-bytes/uncompressed-bytes) - This will always be zero if no software compression was - done, or if you are using a version 1.25 or older FD. -- Pickup Job termination status of FD in backup, so now - the termination status represents the state of all three - daemons. -- Implemented new fill command in btape that permits filling - a tape and then reading it back to ensure that it works - with Bacula. - -General: From kes06Oct02 -- Implemented first major cut of bscan -- program to scan a tape - and recreate a Bacula catalog. -- Fixed lseek() relative negative seek that prevented writing multiple - jobs to a File volume. -- Implemented BB02 tape format -- currently turned off for writing. - -Changes submitted this submission: -- Updated README -- Implemented new BB02 tape format, which moves the VolSessionId and - VolSessionTime from the record headers into the Block header. It - is currently turned off. -- Implemented new btime time/date format on the tape. This is currently - turned off. -- Added JobStatus to EOS tape label. This is currently turned off. -- Changed start_block, ... to StartBlock in JCR for uniformity. -- Print a message telling which tables were dropped/made with - ./drop_bacula_tables. -- Return JobType and JobLevel in db_get_job_record(). -- Implemented get_current_btime(), which returns btime_t. -- Bump debug message max size to 2000 bytes. -- Add btime_t serial/unserial routines. -- Rework all tape label routines to integrate btime and other - label format changes (currently turned off -- for writing). -- Fix lseek() to always be positive -- block.c -- Consolidate record, block, and label major #defines in block.h. -- Major implementation of bscan. Some more minor tweaking will be - necessary. E.g. add multiple records for multiple simultaneous - Jobs. -- Cleanup lseek() to always use off_t as second argument. -- Add new "created" tape label (EOT_LABEL). This generates a callback - to the read_records() routine when the final end of all tapes is - reached allowing proper termination and updating of the media records. - -General: From kes25Sep02 -- Added means to bind servers to specific address. -- Documentation - -Changes submitted this submission: -- Added DirAddress, FDAddress, and SDAddress records to the corresponding - resources that allow the server to bind to a specific address - rather than any address. This security improvement was suggested by - a user -- thank you. -- Eliminated deprecated "Address" record from all sample Storage resources. -- Made quite a lot of improvements to the bscan program. Much more - to do. Aside from details, it is able to recreate a database - from which you can do a restore. -- The s option is not accepted on all versions of ar, so replaced it - by an explicit ranlib call. -- Fixed a bug that caused the Director to crash if you rudely bring - down the console program in the middle of an SQL command. -- Fixed a bug (missing break) that caused scheduled Admin jobs to - be listed as "Unknown type". -- Removed old code from Storage daemon that used a separate FD port. - -General: From kes14Sep02 -- Better key generation on non OpenSSL systems. -- 64 bit file address support if available. -- Implement autochanger for reading -- Lots of cleanup of tape reading code. -- Automatically create all Pool resources when Bacula starts. -- Implement bscan.c -- Implement autochanger use via the Console commands "add" and "label" -- Begin implementation of a regression script -- Write bootstrap after ever job - -Changes submitted this submission: -- After noticing that the non OpenSSL random key generator was - not good on Solaris, John wrote a very nice randpass generator. -- Integrated John's makeSessionKey for generating the FD->SD - authorization. -- Statically link tools (doesn't work on Solaris). -- Document how to debug Bacula (new chapter in the manual) -- Remove unneeded printing of error message in sql_get.c -- Free SD description config record (previous oversight) -- Bash spaces when sending Director names, and unbash them when - received. -- Ensure no divide by zero in rate computation in backup.c -- Implement WriteBootstrap in backup.c -- Allow tape reading to request volume information for any - volume. -- Create all Pool resources at startup. -- Show only Backup jobs in Restore listing of last 20 Jobs. -- Handle 64 bit stat packets in restore. -- Don't do shell expansion on store_dir in config if string - starts with |. This is used for piping the program for the - WriteBootstrap. -- Ignore SIGHUP -- DéjàGnu was triggering this. -- Implement autochanger for reading, many changes to - acquire_device_for_read() -- Implement callback for reading Volume. Implement in bextract, - bls, and bscan. -- Implement bscan -- Add count to bsr. -- Fix Volume in bsr. -- Move autochanger code to new subroutine in mount.c - -============================================================================= -2002-09-05 Version 1.25a (05Sep02) Released -- Fix unitialized stack variable in bextract so it - will always read the currently mounted tape. - -============================================================================= -2002-09-04 Version 1.25 (01Sep02) Released - General: -- Added .cvsignore files in each directory to cut down on the - CVS output when scanning directories and finding Makefiles - and such which are not part of the CVS tree. - - Changes submitted this submission: -- Cleaned up a lot of the error messages in Verify, including - indenting. -- Had to remove some of the "automatic" error message printing - in the DB because they are in fact things that come up - for Verify but not really errors. - - - 2002-08-30 Version 1.25 (30Aug02) Beta - From kes30Aug02 -- Fixed a bug where only the first file was restored if - it is hard linked. The other links were lost. -- In some cases of restoring to alternate directories, softlinks - were not properly restored. - - From kes28Aug02 - General: -- Bacula backups now run up to 12 times faster than version 1.24 -- Bacula can run multiple simultaneous Jobs. -- Had to turn off TRANSACTIONS in SQLite because it doesn't work - with multiple simultaneous jobs (I'm working on this). -- Added a better Job printout for Restore Jobs. -- Added a save/restore Rate to backup and restore jobs. This - does not yet subtract out operator wait time so it will be - underestimated it the Job waits on the tape (mount/label). -- Fixed a major bug caused by free()ing a buffer twice in - the Restore code. This made the SD more or less useless after - any restore Job. Arrggg! -- DIR - SD protocol changed, both must be updated at the same time. -- DIR - FD protocol changed in upward compatible way. Upgrade of - FD not required, but recommended. - - Changes submitted this submission: -- Added bell to "make" when errors are detected. -- Changed default compile option from -g to -g -O2 -- Additional documentation as usual -- much based on questions or - feedback from users. Thanks. -- Fixed example config files to use new syntax and to have a - Restore Job. -- Define ETIME to ETIMEOUT for Irix -- Added JCR filed to DB structure permitting direct printing error - messages from within the Database subroutines. - Some error messages may be printed twice as a consequence. - When I see them or someone reports them, I will remove the double. -- Added JCR to the bsock structure. This allows direct printing - of network errors from within the network code. -- Made most "trivial" debug messages have level 100 or greater. This - allows for easier debugging of new code using the range below 100. -- Began replacing all Emsg() with Jmsg() using a NULL as the JCR in - Jmsg() is the same as Emsg(). -- Fixed several crashes in the Director because of malformed config files. -- Added SpoolAttributes to Job resource. -- Pass CatalogFiles to SD. If set to no, the attributes are dropped - within the SD rather than being sent to the DIR. -- Cleaned up a number of information/error messages in user interface. - This includes eliminating the "pretty please" response in favor of - "yes/no" to delete volumes and pools. -- Cleaned up quite a number of uninitialized variables reported when going - to -O2, most were harmless, but a couple could cause problems. -- The cd command in restore was not working correctly (it didn't allow some - legal cds). -- Fixed a segmentation violation in the directory tree handling code in - the restore command. -- Handle a few error conditions in the restore command better. -- Permit "Where" to be set to nul in modification of a run command. -- Clarified the error message for Verify if an InitCatalog has not previously - been done -- thanks Chuck. -- Add MaximumConcurrentJobs to FD. -- Added code to mem_pool to die if a buffer is released twice. -- Lots of work done on SD for multiple simultaneous jobs. Split device.c - into device.c, mount.c and acquire.c -- Started writing new lock code for SD, but may back it out -- needs more - thought. Current code works, but is too complicated. Maybe can simplify it. -- Cleaned up the SD tools code quite a bit. Added bootstrap to all tools. -- Ensure that tape session labels are not split across two blocks. This makes - reading them back much easier. -- Fixed another restore bug concerning tape labels on multi-volume saves. - -============================================================================= -2002-08-14 Version 1.24 - From kes12Aug02 -- Made a new tools directory. -- Moved smtp into the tools directory. -- Created a dbcheck program in the tools directory that - checks for certain database errors and if requested fixes them. -- Put the database link flags on DB_LIBS so that it now only is - on binaries that actually need it. -- Document dbcheck and testfind programs. -- Move testfind to tools directory. -- Check for FileSet after getting Client name in Restore command. - Modify all necessary SQL commands to accept FileSetId. -- Add a db_get_fileset_record in cats directory. -- Correct list last 20 files concatenation to be MySQL - dependent. They aren't SQL standard. Use SQL standard || for - other SQL programs. -- Modify dir command in file selection to produce a long form - listing of the file/directory name. -- Add platforms/irix/*.in files to CVS -- Make Console command scanner accept quoted value fields. -- If after selecting Client to restore, there are multiple - FileSets, ask user to select one. -- After obtaining JobIds for restore, ensure that there is only - one MediaType, and select a Storage resource to be used. - - From kes11Aug02 -- Made restore actually work. -- Made console and gconsole be configured (requested by Chuck) -- Updated kernstodo -- changed fs in Job record to fileset for clarity -- The console run command was not properly picking up the command - line arguments. Fixed! -- Changed add/remove/rm to mark/unmark -- Volume keyword VolumeName was wrong, changed to Volume (in restore bsr). -- Pass jcr to parse_bsr, and if non-NULL, it will output error messages - to Job stream rather than Emsg. -- Modified lexical scanner to include caller context so that jcr can - be stored in lex context allowing error messages to be properly - routed. -- Renamed the Job message chain to be jcr_msgs. This eliminated the - previous confusion with the default value, now named jcr->messages. -- Implemented multi-volume bsr records. -- Implemented pm_strcat() and pm_strcpy() to cat/add to memory pool - buffers in same way as strcat/strcpy, but expanding buffer. -- Modified db_get_volume_names to handle arbitrarily long Volume list. - - From kes07Aug02 -- If the Console program terminated during the printing of messages, - the message file was left locked. This was corrected by using the - new read-write lock code. -- Implemented Pw() and Vw() for obtaining and releasing a write lock - using the rwl_xxx routines. -- Deleted some old pthread_mutex code from mysql.c -- In making the Irix port, I previously corrected the base64 routine so - they were not sensitive to the machine definition of char. This made - them incompatible with previous versions invalidating MD5 signatures - which are in base64 format. I have now corrected this, making the - routines compatible with the previous version but also insensitive - to the default definition of char. -- Removed some unnecessary NPRT() usage in signal.c (pointed out by - the Irix compiler). -- Add back BNET_NONO for compatibility with older File daemons. -- Implement runing a restore Job in the restore command. -- Make installation of query.sql unconditional. To prevent you own file - from being overwritten, give it a different name. -- Made parse_command_args() in ua take command from ua->cmd, this - simplifies it and allows usage in other places -- e.g. building - arguments for created run command in restore. -- Cleaned the naming of s_full_ctx to be s_jobids. -- Write the bsr created in restore to "working-directory"/restore.bsr -- Fix bugs in command line scanner in run command -- also some misplaced - breaks! -- Eliminate static cmd in ua_server.c -- Eliminate segmentation fault when using the Run command in the - Console -- forgot to init_msgs(). - - From kes06Aug02 -- Did a good amount of documentation. -- Added sql_cmds.c to CVS, forgot, pointed out by Chuck. -- Added new platforms/irix directory to CVS -- Turn off transaction debug code in sql.c -- Reworked the scheduler so that it handles the same Job starting - twice in the same hour. Previously it took one or the other. -- Tightened up the "slop" in the timings that I programmed to ensure - that the same job isn't run twice or that no job was missed. -- Increase the sleep time. -- Used job_type_to_str() in status so that Admin jobs are correctly reported. -- Add internationalization message chars to a number of routines - in util.c -- Make the watchdog timer clear the mutex when it exits. -- Some tweaks to the Restore command. It needs fixing when a Job spans - two or more volumes. - - From kes05Aug02 -- Initial cut at adding Irix File daemon support. -- Lots of work on the restore command. -- Take a stab at eliminating the "broken pipe message" - when the console program prematurely terminates. -- Reimplemented transactions for SQLite by keeping - them all in the same thread. -- quit in the Console program now waits for Bacula to - quit. To immediately quit, you must enter .quit -- Eliminated BNET_EOF -- this COULD have some negative consequences - on interdaemon communications. -- Define Job termination status for Admin jobs. -- Write new bstrncpy() function that guarantees that strcpy is - properly terminated. -- Fixed command input in ua_input.c to accept quoted items as a - single field. - - From kes01Aug02 -- The changes that added indexes to the SQLite database were - lost -- thanks to Chuck for pointing this out. Redone. -- Fixed a problem quoting strings in SQLite. This showed up - as database errors with files containing ' or " in the filename. -- Implemente restore command -- still in progress. -- Added indexes to all fields in SQLite that exist in MySQL. -- Moved unused immortal files from src/lib to src/immortal. - This will permit splitting depkgs. -- Started work on adding embedded MySQL. Cannot get the tables - to work for the moment. Please don't try to use this option. -- Convert to using single quotes for enclosing all strings. -- Implement correct quoting algorithm for SQLite strings. - Is dequoting needed? -- Started centralizing SQL statments in the Director in sql_cmds.c -- Changed a number of M_ABORTs to M_ERROR_TERM so that program terminates - but does not produce a dump. -- Allow wild-card matches in bsr for Client name, and Job. -- Change OflineOnUnmount=no as default. -- Fixed improper printing of filenames containing a space in bls.c - Thanks to Carlos for reporting this. - -=========================================================================== -2002-07-26 Release 1.23a -- Fix segmentation fault is FD status. -- Turn off TRANSACTIONs for SQLite. - -=========================================================================== -2002-07-23 Release 1.23 - From kes22Jul02 -- Updated Bacula to handle some minor differences in MySQL 4.0.2 - (still works with older MySQLs). -- Updated MySQL documentation to correct some minor errors. -- Added kernstodo to CVS -- Fixed create_mysql_database, which I recently accidently broke. -- Disallow zero length volume names in Console program. -- Create alter_mysql_tables and alter_sqlite_tables for conversion - from 1.22 table format to 1.23 table format. - - From kes20Jul02 -- Investigation of SQLite performace problems reported by Chuck. -- Updated ChangeLog -- Updated README -- made root@localhost the default email address because many smtp - servers reject root but accept root@localhost -- Added an autochangers chapter to the manual. -- Documented most of the new features in 1.23 -- Modified the SQLite interface code to start a transaction at the - beginning of a job and commit it at the end of the job. It - also commits it after 10000 changes. Hopefully this will - improve performance. -- Set the default cache pages from 2000 to 10000 for SQLite (i.e. - about 15Megs of memory) hoping to improve performance. -- Terminate last filename referenced in FD prior to copy to - avoid race problem with multiple threads and no locking. -- Enhanced the status output to include the JobType -- Print an error message if the email program terminates in error. -- If your machine has an MTUNLOCK, do it before doing an OFFLINE to - ensure that the door is unlocked. -- Added code to stored/append.c to spool attributes. This is in - a testing stage and must be explicitly enabled. -- Added a no_attributes variable to stored/append.c that prevents - the attributes from being sent to the Director. As yet, no way - to turn it on. -- Modified SQLite code so that after 10000 updates any transaction - is committed, then restarted. This keeps it from using too much - memory. -- Set the default cache size to 10000 pages (previously 2000). -- Fixed a segmentation fault on Sun due to no default value for - the JobStatus. -- Added the same indexes to SQLite that I exist in MySQL. This - VASTLY reduces CPU usage for lots of inserts. -- Added spooling to bnet_send(). - - From kes18Jul02 -- The following two changes were prompted by questions/suggestions - from A Morgan. -- If you have "AlwaysOpen = no" in your SD Device - resource, Bacula will free() the drive when it - is finished with the Job. -- If you have "Offline On Unmount = yes", in your - SD Device resource, Bacula will offline (or eject) - the tape prior to freeing it. -- Added Maximum Open Wait to allow open() to wait if drive is busy. -- Added RunBeforeJob and RunAfterJob records to Job records. - This permits running an external program with the following editing - codes: - %% = % - %c = Client's name - %d = Director's name - %i = JobId - %e = Job Exit - %j = Job - %l = Job Level - %n = Job name - %t = Job type - - From kes17Jul02 -- Added autochanger support to devices.c -- Allow user to change Slot in the Volume record. -- Implemented code in lib to run an external program - (tape changer) -- Implemented a changer script for mtx. -- Currently the changer commands used are: - loaded -- returns number of slot loaded or 0 - load -- loads a specified slot - unload -- unloads the device (returns casette to slot) -- Other changer commands defined but not yet used: - list -- returns list of slots containing a cassette - slots -- returns total number of slots -- Implemented ChangerCommand, specified in the SD Device - resource, permits editing of: - %% = % - %a = archive device name - %c = changer device name - %f = Client's name - %j = Job name - %o = command - %s = Slot base 0 - %S = Slot base 1 - %v = Volume name -- Implemented MaximumChangerWait default 120 seconds. It is - specified in the SD Device resource. - - From kes15Jul02 -- Moved techlogs from main directory to be subdirectory of doc -- Added code for strerror_r, and detection of gethostbyname_r(). -- The protocol between the Director and the SD has changed. -- Major rework of SD tape mounting to prepare for Changer commands. -- Separated Update Media record and Create JobMedia record. These - are done from the SD by calling the Director. Need separate Create - JobMedia so that when a Job spans a volume, all other Jobs writing - the same volume will also have JobMedia records created. -- Added message to user indicating selection aborted if he enters . - to a Console selection request. -- Create a jobstatus_to_ascii() routine for use in status commands. - This makes a single routine from three separate pieces of code. - Updated the code to properly handle more (all) termination statuses. -- Tried to fix the gnome-console to handle history a bit better. There - are still some problems with focus not being properly set to the edit - box after history replacement. -- Removed the shutdown() from bnet_close() hoping to fix Console termination - errors that are occassionally seen -- no luck. -- Moved add_str() to lib/util and renamed it add_str_to_pool_mem() so that - it can be used to edit Job termination codes and Changer command codes. -- Reworked how the SD mounts tapes (in device.c) so that control passes through - only a single routine. The logic is much simpler than previously, and now - adding AutoChanger code is straight forward. -- Made SD tape mounting much more fault tolerant -- more cases retry instead - of terminating the Job. -- Wrote code to edit_device_codes() for Changer commands. Not yet fully - implemented. -- Added a ChangerDevice directive to the Device resource. Still need to add - ChangerCommand. - - From kes07Jul02 -- This documents what I did while on vacation. -- A fair amount of documentation. -- Implemented Verify Volume to Catalog (needs renaming) -- Modified the database to include new MarkId field as - well as Counters. Database level is incremented from 1 to 2. -- Added first cut of managing autochangers by implementing Slot in DB. -- Fixed a good number of M_ERROR messages to be M_FATAL where appropriate. - Also converted a number of Emsg() to Jmsg() permitting better Job error - messages. -- First cut at implementing a general packet passing mechanism for bsock - to replace printf and sscanf for passing data. -- Made make_xxx_tables and drop_xxx_tables and create_xxx_database - for bdb as well as sqlite. With this each database has the - same set of scripts (with the exception that MySQL has grant_privileges). -- Modified Makefile to only install the database scripts for the - database that you are using. -- Updated the pdf script to include all the html files. -- Did quite a lot of documentation. -- Made Bacula compile correctly with DEBUG turned off. -- Implemented Pmsg() macros that permit using the debug print - routines even with DEBUG off. -- Updated job_cancelled() macro to handle JS_FatalError. -- Changed db_find_last_full_verify() to db_find_last_jobid(). This - permits working with Verify Volume to Catalog. -- Removed TRANSACTION code from incrementing NextId for SQLite. -- Implemented quick and dirty (not fully functional code) so that - console program does not die if ctl-Z is entered. -- Cleaned up backup.c a bit adding a bail_out goto to ensure proper - handling of errors with minimum code. -- Added passing Slot back and forth to Storage daemon with Volume info. -- Implemented Slot in Media record in DB. -- Implemented first cut of Counter resource in dird_conf.c. A counter - resource is part of the Pool resource. -- Implemented necessary database record. However, the resource doesn't - yet create a DB record. -- Implemented onefs (One File System) and recurse options on Include - resource. -- Implemented autopruning of Verify and Restore Jobs. -- Did a better job of calculating thread_concurrency() for Sun systems. - This permits better multi-threading allowing all the threads to run - at the same time. -- Implemented a wait_for_storage_daemon_termination(), which is used by - backup and verify volume. -- Clarified a number of UA prompts, and add feedback where certain commands - completed but printed nothing. (More work to be done here). -- Added a pile of new code to implement Verify Volume to Catalog. It is sort - of a hybrid of "restore" and "verify" in that it actually reads the tape, - then compares it to the catalog. Need Verify Volume to Client. -- Added a good number of checks for job_cancelled() this should permit - quicker and more reliable cancelling of jobs. -- Fixed one bug in restore where I used ofile instead of lname, which means - that if the lname was too long, the memory was not properly reallocated. -- Cleaned up find_one.c in findlib quite a bit. -- Link smtp static so that it works even if the libraries are messed up. -- If mail host is not found, retry with local host in smtp. -- Added slot and stream to the bootstrap record processing. -- Do offline on tape cartrige for unmount command. This can be turned off - by the user in the config file. OffLineOnUnmount in Device resource. -- Implemented AutoChanger = yes/no in Device resource. - -=========================================================================== -2002-07-07 Release 1.22 -- All the basic Restore code to handle the boostrap file is - now implemented with the exception of the Console Restore command. -- Retained compatibility with previous Restore providing no - bootstrap file is specified. However, the old code (JobId based) - will go away in a future release. -- Fixed a number of segmentation faults in the Console program due - to printing of NULL pointers -- thanks to Chuck and his Sun for - finding and reporting them -- mostly in ua_output.c. - - From kes25Jun02 -- Null pointers now are printed as *None* if NPRT() is used. -- At the request of Phil, all resources are now chained in in the - order they appear in the config file. -- Implement Bootstrap record in the Director's config file, which - allows you to specify a predefined bootstrap file for Restore Jobs. -- Allow Bootstrap on the Restore record. This is deprecated. -- Implemented code to pass the Bootstrap file, if defined, to the - File daemon, then from the File daemon to the Storage daemon. -- Added ability to set Bootstrap file in the Console when running a Restore. -- Allow scan_error() routine to be passed to lex_open_file(). This permits - using lex in the Storage daemon without worrying that it will ABORT on - a syntax error. More work is needed to direct the error messages correctly. -- Improved error messages a bit when config syntax errors are found. -- Tested and corrected some errors in match_bsr.c -- Removed askdir.c from bls and bextract by defining dummy entry points. -- bextract now has bootstrap pretty well integrated. -- Changed bextract ABORTs into FATAL and exit(1) or ERROR_TERMINATE. - More user friendly. -- Eliminated at least one lld and replaced it by edit_uint64() -- Eliminated a few more _PROTO()s. -- Corrected a problem with the SQL for in query.sql for - Listing Volumes to Restore All Files - - From kes22Jun02 -- Additional documentation. -- Reduce the time the jcr mutex is locked in lib/jcr.c -- More null pointer printing fixes in lib/parse_conf.c (debug output only). -- Added daemon filename to Kaboom message so I know what daemon died. -- Fix big bad bug introduced in watchdog.c last update that caused - a segmentation violation (forgot to check for NULL pointer). -- Add a bit more info to bad returns from Stored when starting - a job fails. - - From kes21Jun02 -- Fixed scan_to_eol -- Fixed backup scanning forgot one T_STRING -> T_UNQUOTED_STRING -- changed all rwlock_t to brwlock_t to avoid conflicts with - Solaris library. -- Added NPRT() macro to allow printing of NULL pointers, which - segment fault on Solaris. -- Cast printing of pid_t to int for Solaris compiler. - - From kes20Jun02 -- Added expect argment to lex_get_token(). -- Added tree.c and tree.h to lib directory. - - From kes19Jun02 -- Improvements to the bootstrap compiler -- Implemented first cut of bootstrap code in the Storage daemon -- Modified the authentication code to be more explicit during - failures. -- Added a few more debug message numbers with more arguments (Dmsg10, ...) -- Added more and more precise error messages when authentication fails. -- Implemented new "expect" codes in the lexical scanner that allows - the caller to specify what he wants. -- Added integer, positive integer, 64 bit integer, and integer ranges, - and name scanning to lex. -- Implemented new lex code in parse_conf.c, this reduces significantly - the code. -- Hopefully fixed a watchdog race bug that caused the watchdog to time - out a line after 1 hour rather than 6 days. - - From kes15Jun02 -- Implemented a Bootstrap file parser and matcher. -- Implemented first cut of bootstrap code in bextract -- Started clarifying different termination codes. -- Added M_ERROR_TERM to immediately terminate the daemon -- no dump. - Also changed a few termination codes as appropriate. -- Fixed create_jobmedia_record() to include all the fields such as - StartFile/EndFile, StartBlock/EndBlock. -- Print user friendly message when query mode ends. -- Fixed ls style print routines (bextract, bls, restore) to check - buffer size, to print the link if any, and to used edit_uint64() - instead of %lld. -- Moved scan_to_eol() and s_err() to lex.c to avoid dragging in - parse_conf.c for new bsr scanning code. -- New files: bsr.h, parse_bsr.c and match_bsr.c. parse_bsr.c parses - a Bootstrap file, and match_bsr.c matches a bsr against a tape. -- use strcasecmp() in several places instead of lcase(). -- Add first cut of bootstrap to bextract. -- Added File Size limit -- writes EOF after limit exeeded. - -=========================================================================== -2002-06-12 Release 1.21 -- Fixed several problems with filenames being truncated if - they contain spaces. Thanks to the user that reported this. -- N.B. To get the new queries, after the "make" and - "make install" you must explicitly replace the - existing query.sql by query.sql.new. query.sql is a - user configuration file, so it is not overwritten. -- Added GZIP compression of Included files. -- Added additional fields to tape SOS record permitting better - recovery with no database. -- Be sure to remove any !terminate statements you may have - in your config files. -- MUST UPDATE ALL DAEMONS due to protocol change to handle new - tape format. - - From kes11Jun02: -- Updated examples directory with my most recent config files. -- Modified the M_TERM meaning to mean that Bacula has - terminated in error without producing a dump. Previously, - it meant that Bacula terminate (with or without error). - You should remove any !terminate from your messages - resources. -- Changed the order of the libraries in the link so that - tcp wrappers link properly. Thanks Phil for reporting this. -- A user reported that filenames containing spaces were truncated - in bextract. This was indeed the case. They were also truncated - in Restore as well as in Verify. They are, hopefully, all fixed - now. -- Made a few error conditions in Verify non-fatal. -- Modified the Console "query" command to permit multiple SQL - statements per command. -- Implemented three new "query" options: - List last 10 Full Backups for a Client - List Volumes used by selected JobId - List Volumes to Restore All Files - To use them, simply type "query" to the Console program, and - select the one you want. -- Modified bextract to default to extracting all files (i.e. /). -- Cleaned up the code in bextract a bit. - - From kes03Jun02: -- Improve Verify command to include files examined. -- Eliminate fcntl() locking of the console file and replaced - it with a pthreads mutex. -- Note Director - SD protocol is changed to handle new tape - information (Fileset, JobType, JobLevel). -- Create config.out that contains a summary of ./configure - to see what you previously configured: "cat config.out" -- Implemented GZIP compression. Added addition syntax to - Include { } resource to permit setting of any GZIP compression - level: - compression=GZIP - compression=GZIP1 - ... - compression=GZIP9 - - Level 1 is minimum compression and level 9 is maximum. Using just - GZIP gives the default (level 6). -- Enhanced the tape format to include the unique Job name, FileSetName, - JobType, and JobLevel in the Start/End of Session records. The code - detects that tape level difference and acts accordingly. You can - add data in the new format to old tapes. -- Fixed an incorrect display message in the prune command. -- Began implementation of Verify Volume and Verify Data. -- Cleaned up File daemon restore.c a bit ensuring that termination - cleanup is done and all possible Emsgs are converted to Jmsgs. -- Modify bls.c to use common setup routines. This reduced the big - code duplication that creeped in when I added different listing - options. Also, changing tapes is now handled uniformily in a subroutine. - -=========================================================================== -2002-05-27 Release 1.20 -- Started documenting Catalog Pruning and Recycling. - Added catmaintenance.html and recycling.html -- Fixed the query command bug. -- Implemented PID files to prevent two copies of Bacula - from running at the same time. Be sure you --with-pid-dir - points to a working directory. -- Modified ASSERT() to cause a segmentation violation. This - permits a core dump. -- Worked on gnome-console. It paints better, it tells you if it - is ready to accept a command or processing one, and it is - almost entirely GTK+ (rather than GNOME, I'm removing GNOME - a bit at a time). -- Limit to 100 the number of tape labeling errors in a single Job. -- Add some additional ASSERT()s to the database routines. I don't - like ASSERTs but they do catch bugs. -- Tested and debugged recycling of Volumes. Needed to change - the Director-SD protocol slightly. -- Removed the experimental SIGHUP in the Director as it is a - potential source of errors. -- Added Level, Pool, Messages, and Storage keyword/value scanning - to the Schedule Run record. -- Improved printing of Schedule resources with "show schedules" -- Do not autoprune Jobs/Files if the Job errs. -- Updated newvol() to pass back the updated Media record. -- Fixed the "update pool" command, which was broken during a much - earlier code reorganization. -- Improved a few of the pruning messages. -- Removed readline inclusions from gnome-console (hang over from console). -- Make Jmsg use daemon message handler if no message handler is defined. - This is always the case in the SD and FD. -- Started removing __PROTO(). With C++ prototypes are manditory, so why - keep around legacy code. -- Added a good deal of message internationalization -- more to be done. -- Move cached Path into mdb structure and use POOLMEM. -- Fix verify bug introduced last update causing incorrect diffs - by turning off autopruning. -- Started adding code to distinguish Errors from Fatal Errors. -- Errors are now counted in message.c for a Job. -- More POOLMEM cleanups. -- Implemented Automatic pruning. -- Implemented Automatic recycling of Volumes. -- Added PruneJobs/Files/Volumes=yes or no to Job resource. If set, - it forces the specified pruning. -- Modified rwlock to accept multiple nested write lock - requests. -- Modified the cats directory to use the new rwlock mechanism - in place of P() and V(). -- Defined db_lock(mdb) and db_unlock(mdb). They are in effect - transaction locks. -- Add CVS Id's to most files. -- Made first cut at AutoPrune -- Added new autoprune file that is called at the end of - each Job. It then decides when and what to prune and - calls the UA prune routines. -- Modified Run (in Schedule resource) to permit overrides of - Level, Pool, Storage, and Messages. (not tested). -- Added more POOLMEM in place of char. -- Implemented daemon pid files. This prevents multiple - daemons from running simultaneously. You can run multiple - daemons if they listen on different ports. -- Documented the Schedule resource a bit better. -- Began gently adding a POOLMEM type (perviously void). - For the moment it is a #define to char, but long term - it should be its own typedef. -- Corrected a bit of spacing on the status bar of gnome-console -- Added Admin and Archive Job types. -- Implemented multiple Messages resources. Each daemon has - its own message resource, which defaults if not defined. - Jobs may now have different message handlers. -- Cleaned up a bit of duplicate code in backup, verify, and - restore by creating appropriate subroutines in job.c -- Added Type, Client, FileSet, and Level resource record - definitions to the Director. These can be used in place - of the Backup = ..., Verify = ..., ... commands. This needs - documenting. -- Corrected an incorrect message in the prune code and added - the number of Files pruned in the message. -- Corrected several paint problems with gnome-console. -- Added a bit of printout in signal handler during traceback. -- Cleaned up most of sm_check() to be turned on/off by define - in version.h - -=========================================================================== -2002-05-10 Release 1.19 -- Allow the user to select a new period for pruning. -- Lots of additions to the manual -- prune and purge - commands documented. -- Applied Phil's configure.in fix for --prefix, ... -- Fixed bug found by Phil (patch supplied) in updating - MD5 signatures (revert to 32 bit FileId, move "static" - variables into JCR) (catreq.c fd-cmds.c). -- Reverted to using INTEGER for FileId in make_sql_tables - due to a bug in MySQL. -- Change editing code to %d for FileId. -- Remove sqlite in make distclean in cats directory. -- Remove console.conf in console during make distclean. -- Remove gnome-console.conf during make distclean. -- Remove bacula-dir.conf during make distclean. -- Set default level when using Console if none specified. - Bug reported by Phil. -- A simple . command from Console is ignored. -- Change program named from filed to bacual-fd in winmain.cpp -- Change default config file for Win32 in winmain.cpp -- Free namebuf on early return from find_one.c. Bug reported by Phil. -- Modify testfind.c to dump orphaned buffers. -- Removed terabytes from parse_conf.c because of problems with - older gcc compilers. -- Turn off gnome options in gnome-console by constructing empty argv. -- Fixes to Verify when only MD5 differs. -- Insert 0 for MD5 as default rather than space. -- Allow .messages "transparent" command while reading input - in UserAgent server. -- In dird/verify.c ensure that correct filename is printed if only - the MD5 differs. Minor reindenting caused large diff. -- Delete unused code from backup.c -- In filed/verify.c ensure that same algorithm as backup.c is used - to pass back MD5 signatures -- especially for directories and files - that cannot be read. Change dummy filename from X to *MD5-id*. - This dummy value should never be printed. -- Make gnome-console poll Director every 5 seconds for output. - This means that queued up messages are displayed at reasonable - intervals. Delete some unused code hanging around from the tty - console program. -- Begin implementation of prune commands. -- Add command line history to gnome-console. Not yet saved across sessions. -- Fixed some broken URLs in the manual. -- Added JobId type. -- Wrote first cut of "prune files" and "prune jobs". -- Added command line history to gnome-console 2500 lines max. -- Widened store_time() and associated variables to 64 bits using - new btime_t definition. -- Removed GNOME about box and replaced it with - a somewhat crude Gtk+ about box in the gnome-console. -- Widened StartDay in the Job DB record to be 64 bits. -- Changed edit_uint_ to edit_uint64_ everywhere. Much more - descriptive of what is done. -- Removed most llds and replaced them with %s and edit_uint64. - This makes the code a bit easier to read for beginners. -- Added a btime_t typedef which is 64 bits wide. -- Added most of the code needed to do Purge and Prune of - database. Not yet tested. Please do not use. -- Additional config options for Console. -- Started adding code for Automatic Recycling of Volumes. -- Allow arbitrary length filenames in Verify code. -- Fix incorrect filename in Verify code. -- Significant enhancement to number scanning in config parser. -- Requires initializing MySQL tables, or applying cats/alter.sql - to modify Media table. -- Modified Makefile to printer a much more visible - message if the make ends in error. -- Added the Purge value to the VolStatus in the Media table. - This value is set if the Volume is purged. -- Enhanced the db_delete_media_record() routine to delete - all associated records in the database. -- Modified Console to always write to the variable "output" - rather than stdout. This will permit directing output to a file. -- Enhanced the Console configuration file to have a Console - resource. This will allow us to add an rcfile and history file. -- Modified Find_next_vol in catreq.c to search for "Recycle" - volumes if there are none marked Append. Also made Get_Vol_info - return the VolStatus to the Storage daemon. -- Allow upper/lower case match on job level names. -- Added another warning message to the Console "delete media" command. -- Corrected a number of FileId types from uint64_t to FileId_t in - ua_retention.c. -- In ua server close database before freeing JCR (because pointer is - kept in ua and jcr structures). -- parse all numbers as doubles. Do lots of checking for valid number - formats. Allow numbers in scientific form (e.g. 1.5e+10). -- Remove terabyte modifier as it doesn't work in some compilers. -- Fix bug in handling some modifiers. -- Added all necessary code for Recycle to Storage daemon. A Volume - marked Recycle will now be overwritten. -- Filled out the prune command a bit and did some testing. -- Make console accept redirected input. -- Altered the Table definitions to include Recycle, - FileRetention, JobRetention, and AutoPrune. -- Widened StartDay to 64 bits. -- Use JobId_t in more places. -- Added the new table fields to the database record definitions. -- Changed Recycle from string to a binary quantity. -- Added a Version table with a VersionId to detect. - future changes in the database. This should prevent - a Bacula from working with a database that is not in sync. -- Modify Console to accept input from a file. This will permit - the .read command and allow reading a .rc file. -- Added new retention and recycle variables to the Director's configuration. -- The UA subroutines or commands can now be called from core - code because the output routines detect the absence of a - UA socket and direct output to the Job. -- Added a verbose flage to the ua packet to permit reduction of - output while running a UA command (prune) from a Job. -- Did a fair amount of work on the prune command. Prune Volume now works. -- Purge Volume now works. -- Made last changes for integrating prune and purge commands. -- Add -ltermcap to CONS_LIBS when readline is configured. - More work to be done to search for termcap. -- Added cats/drop_sqlite_tables.in, which will delete the SQLite database. -- Got CWEB working so that we can compile filesys.w and immortal.w -- Modified depkgs to include cweb. -- Note, CWEB is not yet used by the core Bacula code. -- Made cats/alter.sql, which alters an old database to bring it - up to the new format. This only works with MySQL since SQLite does - not have the ALTER SQL command. -- Changed the old StartDay field in the db to be JobTDate, which is - the latest time/date in widened Unix time format that the Job ran. - This value is used when doing pruning. -- Added code in cats/sql.c to verify that the database internal version - corresponds to the db version compiled in Bacula. It is set to 1 currently. -- Lots of changes to cats to bring the SQL up to date with the new - retention period changes. -- Added Console command code to permit changing a Volume's retention period. -- Removed old code that used date_encode() and replaced it with widened - Unix time(). -- Started modifying Message resource scanner so that we can have multiple - message resources. Much more work to be done. -- Moved scanning for time into new library routine string_to_btime(). - -=========================================================================== -2002-04-22 Release 1.18 -- Applied Phil's configure.in fix for --prefix, ... -- Fixed bug found by Phil (patch supplied) in updating - MD5 signatures (revert to 32 bit FileId, move "static" - variables into JCR) (catreq.c fd-cmds.c). -- Reverted to using INTEGER for FileId in make_sql_tables - due to a bug in MySQL. -- Change editing code to %d for FileId. -- Remove sqlite in make distclean in cats directory. -- Remove console.conf in console during make distclean -- Remove gnome-console.conf during make distclean -- Remove bacula-dir.conf during make distclean -- Set default level when using Console if none specified. - Bug reported by Phil. -- A simple . command from Console is ignored. -- Change program named from filed to bacual-fd in winmain.cpp -- Change default config file for Win32 in winmain.cpp -- Free namebuf on early return from find_one.c.

Thanks. -- Made authenticate.c in dird test bnet_send status. -- Make label a bit more friendly with extra info message. -- Add level 200 to debug info in run command. -- Remove old code from findlib/testfind.c so that it compiles. -- Add two minute max wait to cram-md5 authentication. Hopefully, - this will catch non-responding WinNT daemons. -- Allow time and size modifiers to be upper or lower case. -- Turn off old CYGWIN patch for pthread_cond_timedwait() bug that - now causes File daemon hangs on WinNT. -- Fix mount messages for restore. Previous updates to save - broke the restore code. -- By default write fixed block sizes rather than variable block - sizes. My Sony DAT simply does not work (reread failures) with - variable block sizes. -- Data split across tapes was not being correctly restored - (at least on DAT tapes). -- Implement MaximumBlockSize and MinumBlockSize statements in - Storage daemon so user can specify variable block sizes if - desired. -- Return error if block checksum error on read (previously - ignored). -- Fixed some error messages in bls, and in some cases exit(1) - rather than ABORT. There remain ABORTs to be examined. -- Made a local copy of tcpd.h and corrected the function - prototype problem for C++. - -=========================================================================== -2002-04-14 First public release 1.16 Kern Sibbald - - Many intervening changes/updates. - -2001-09-29 Release 1.0 Kern Sibbald - - Fixes to problems found at John's - installation. - - See techlogs/kes25Sep01 for details - -2001-09-25 Release 1.0 Kern Sibbald - - Helped John install at his site. - He is backing up one Linux machine and - one Win2000 machine. - -2001-mm-dd Many releases - - Released internally. - -2000-04-09 Release 0.4 Kern Sibbald - - Added a lot of Director configuration code. In - part (a small part), the Director now uses the - bacula.conf file to know what to do. There still - remains a lot to do. - - The file search code is now integrated into the - MySQL database routines, and Bacula is now hooked - into the MySQL database (if so configured). Thus - all the database records are being created, though - there still remains some work in getting all the - details into the records (such as the Storage - coordinates). - - I've defined how Volume pools work (see manual). - - I've defined error message handling though no code - is yet written. - - The following resources and records are implemented - in the Director configuration file (bacula.conf): - - Director - Name (passed to Storage daemon) - Client - Name, Address, Port - Password (not yet used) - Storage - Name, Address, Port, Password, MediaType - Job - Name - Type (not yet used) - Backup (only one permitted) - Client, FileSet - Storage - Schedule, Messages, Pool (not used) - FileSet - Name - Include (options ignored) - Exclude (no options) - Schedule (not used) - Name - Messages (not used) - Name - Debug, syslog, mail, append (not used) - Catalog - Name - Address, Port, Password (not used) - Pool (not used) - Name - PoolType, MediaType (not used) - - - Added Storage configuration routines. - Director - Name, password (verified against those sent by Director) - Storage - Name, Address, Port (address, port must correspond to Director's values) - Password, MediaType - Device - Name, MediaType (must correspond to those sent by Director) - Archive Device (defines device name) - - -2000-03-10 Release 0.3 Kern Sibbald - - Implemented new base64 encoding for attributes. - This eliminates some of the error messages in the - sprintfs on the Solaris due to different stat() sizes. - - Implemented the first cut of the file search routines for - the File daemon. The exclusion lists work including wild - cards. There is a lot of work to be done, but the basic - structure is now in place (wild cards do not yet work for - the include). - - Completed writing the memory pool code. Now I must - implement it in the daemons. - - Modified the bacula start/stop script so that it has a - better chance of working on SGI and Solaris. - - The catalog code has not been converted to the new file - search code. - -2000-03-06 Release 0.2 Kern Sibbald - - Integrated John's fixes. - - Made Makefiles self configuring when Makefile.in is changed. - - Added a runit script in the top level that runs bacula - - Added a "bacula" script in the top level directory that - starts and stops the File daemon and the Storage daemon. - -2000-03-03 Release 0.1 Kern Sibbald - - Basic Director, File, and Storage daemons. - Standalone Catalog services using MySQL - -2000-01-22 Kern Sibbald - * Setup basic file structure with ./configure + Technical notes on version 2.5.x + +General: + +Release Version 3.0.1: +29Apr09 +kes Fix bug #1282 Setting job.Priority in python crashes director by + checking if string addr is NULL.

This fixes bug #1116. +kes Add const in python files to reduce compiler warnings. + This may have to be backed out because of later compiler + strict checking. +kes Fix failure of 2drive-concurrent-test. Always read label; + clear_unload() only after drive is defined in acquire_for_read(). +27Jun08 +kes Generally clean up the manual tape loading code. The main + conceptual change is that when a volume is marked to be unloaded, + its volume name is retained, and it is only marked as unloaded + when either the autoloader says it is unloaded or another tape + is read on that drive. +25Jun08 +kes Add debug code and refactor subroutine in stored/mount.c +kes Fix format problem in bscan output reported in bug #1105. +ebl Fix get_next_volume_for_append logic with autochanger + - use pruned volumes if found + - don't reset the inchanger flag after getting a recycled volume + or a scratch one + Fix recycle_oldest_purged_volume to take InChanger flag in account +23Jun08 +ebl Add mmap/unmmap implementation for tokyodbm under win32 +22Jun08 +kes Make first step toward eliminating globals from config + scanning. Also should be a workaround for FORTIFY_SOURCE + GNU C bug -- fixes bug #1042. +21Jun08 +kes Apply duplicate job tests to restarted jobs. +kes Copy more data when restarting a job so that run + overrides are kept. This should fix bug #1094. +20Jun08 +kes More word alignment cleanup. +kes Fix bug where SD did not ask operator if the device could not + be opened. Reported by Eric. +19Jun08 +kes Add dbuser to DIR conf file (replaces user). +kes Add --with-db-password to ./configure +kes Fix regress to handle db_password. +ebl Add new 'status storage slots' that list autochanger + content. +ebl Update vtape driver to compile only under Linux. +ebl Fix a bug when restoring with a wrong mediatype. +18Jun08 +kes Eliminate ints from conf files and structures to avoid + word alignment problems +17Jun08 +kes Fix bug reported by Scott Barninger where the bacula script + refers to scripts in the wrong directory.
