-!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+General:
+--------
+
+This 5.0.3 version is significant bug fix update to version 5.0.2.
+It includes new code and some new features.
+There is no database change since prior versions of 5.0.
+
+Note, if you are running 5.0.0, read the 5.0.1 and 5.0.2 release notes below in
+ the 5.0.1 release section.
+ Important!!!
+
+Compatibility:
+--------------
+ As always, both the Director and Storage daemon must be upgraded at
+ the same time.
+
+ Older 5.0.x and 3.0.x File Daemons are compatible with the 5.0.3
+ Director and Storage daemons. There should be no need to upgrade older File
+ Daemons.
+
+Changes and New Features:
+- If a VSS (Windows) snapshot fails, the whole Job is failed, previously
+ it printed a warning message and continued.
+- New editing codes %b = Job Bytes and %f = Job Files for runscripts
+- Any non-Bacula project plugins (i.e. third party plugins)
+ must be upgraded to specify AGPLv3 in place of the GPLv2 used previously
+ for the PLUGIN_LICENSE.
+- The bat Media page text columns can be sorted by clicking on the column.
+- If possible, the SD will automatically update the catalog Volume size if
+ it does not match the Volume size. The mismatch between the Volume sizes
+ typically occurs when the FD has a comm line drop or the FD crashes.

+=============================================================================
+
+
+============= Release 5.0.1 ========================
+
+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOTE FOR 5.0.0 USERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Allow Duplicate Jobs directive has been significantly
reworked, and the default value has changed. See below.
Truncate On Purge has been totally rewritten. See the new
features section of the manual.
+
+When Volume Poll Interval is set in the SD DEVICE configuration,
+(default 5 mins), after a certain number of polling tries (approx
+10) polling will stop and the operator will be asked to
+resolve the problem. Previously there was no limit, and an
+error message could be produced at each poll attempt.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Changes since 5.0.0
- Truncate on Purge rewritten. See New Features section in the manual.
