+- Implement filling in NumVols by querying DB rather
+ than trying to keep track of it.
+- Add storage name to string passed to in use storage=
+- Fix newVolume() so that the Python script is always
+ called.
+- Fix handling of pool,PoolId, and storage in ua_output.
+- Same fix in ua_status.c

+ hoping to fix the /lib/tls hang problems (lost signal).
+- Move resource locking seaching from parse_conf.c to res.c
+ in src/lib.
+- Modify end of volume handling so that fixup_... does not
+ redo what block.c has already done -- writing Vol info to
+ DIR. This fixes a bug with bad numbers of files on a tape
+ when it filled as reported by Peter.
+- In release_device() do not update the DIR on the Volume
+ info if the the information was already written at the
+ end of the tape.
+28Mar05

+- Move all the reserve/acquire_device_for_read/append to have
+ only a DCR as the argument.
+- Rework the reserve_device_for_append() in stored to wait
+ if the drive is not available. Note! This is a short
+ term solution.
+25Mar05
+- Comment out Multiple Connections in the document.
+- Move the P() and V() to subroutines so that they can be accessed
+ from class methods. The reference to strerror() caused problems.
+- Implement new DEVICE class methods block() and unblock() that
+ do what was previously done in 3 lines of code.
+- Implement wait_for_device(), which will wait for any device
+ to be released then return. This requires a new global mutex
+ and condition variable, and is implemented in src/stored/wait.c
+- Change the code in reserve_device_for_read(), which previously
+ failed the job to use the new device wait code.
+22Mar05
+- Apply reschedule patch to 1.37 code.
+- Add copyright to title page of manual so it is clear.

+18Mar05
+- Fix more print_name()s for printing device name.
+- Modify open_dev to try 10 times every 6 seconds to
+ open the device if it gets an I/O error (meaning no
+ volume mounted). This gives a bit of settling in time

+- Change all yes/no to yes|no in the manual.
+- Fix win32 create_file.c typo.
+- Fix a typo in an error message.
+17Mar05

+- Implement dev->can_steal_lock() to simplify code.
+- Make btape re-read first 10000 records on fill command.

+- Add Python to SD and FD.
+12Mar05
+- Implement IBM labels
+- Implement EOF and EOV labels at the end of a volume.
+- Fix a rather ugly problem with the PoolId not getting
+ passed correctly. Now the DIR passes the Pool name and
+ Media Type to the SD, who passes them back when requesting
+ the next Volume. The DIR then looks up the correct PoolId.
+ This takes more time, but always works, AND allows wild
+ card Media Types (i.e. the SD can decide).
+- The DIR <==> SD protocol has changed.
+
+Changes to 1.37.6:
+11Mar05
+- Fix scanf of PoolId in catreq to handle 64 bit Ids.

+ update slots code.
+09Mar05
+- Patch the FD so that it does not issue an error message if
+ it attempts to restore the permissions on a Win32 drive.
+- Edit "Resource-name" (physical-name) for the device name
+ everywhere in the SD.
+- Remove .linked.tex files in preparation for cutover to
+ using .tex in place of .wml.
+08Mar05
+- Copy latest config.sub and config.guess from autoconf.
+- Try new way of identifying drives with:
+ "resource-name" (physical-name)
+ More work need to a complete conversion.
+07Mar05
+- Rework some of the autochanger data so that the DIR has
+ the number of drives.
+- Modify the way the Device info is returned so that it comes
+ back as a special message type and can be sent anytime the
+ Device status changes.
+- Copy the change name and changer command into the device
+ record if none is specified.
+- Require the change command and changer name to be specified in
+ and AutoChanger resource.
+- Force all the Media Type records of all devices in an Autochanger
+ to be the same.
+06Mar05
+- Add new "run" command to Job resource in DIR. This permits
+ cloning a job as many times as you want.
+- Pass PoolId to SD on Query request. It is now used in the
+ Find_media catalog request.
+- Reworked the Device resource in the DIR. Eliminated num_waiting
+ and use_count, but added max_writers, reserved, and PoolId.
+- This DIR is nolonger compatible with previous SDs.
+- Add since and cloned keywords to the Console run command
+ to support cloning.
+- Implemented store_alist_str() to allow multiple string items
+ to be specified in a .conf file.
+- Added %s (since time) to Job code editing.

+- Fix deadlock in multiple simultaneous jobs.
+- Fix tape "truncation"/"number of files" after restore bug.
+10Feb05
+- Ensure that correct error messages are returned when
+ reading an ANSI label.
+09Feb05
+- Modified ANSI label code to preserve any ANSI label
+ already found by skipping over it rather than rewriting
+ it.
+- Split the ANSI label code into ansi_label.c
+- Do not let user relabel an ANSI labeled tape.
+- Applied a patch for the console help command supplied
+ in a bug report.

+ when an EOF is just read. This is now used most everywhere
+ in the code.
+07Feb05
+- Added code to detect that no files were inserted into the
+ tree for a restore. If a specific JobId was specified, the
+ user has the option of restoring everything.
+- More progress in implementing 64 bit DB Ids.
+- Modified the daemon start messages for RH.
+- Implement update scripts for all database types.
+- First cut at implementing restore directory (it will not
+ recurse).

+- Added Label Type = ANSI|IBM|Bacula to Device resource in SD.
+ If this is set, it will force writing of the appropriate
+ label type.
+- Added Check Labels = yes|no to Device resource in SD. If this

+01Feb05
+- Merge Preben's patch for ACLs and for Mac OS X resource forks.
+- Some doc updates.
+- Display more informative message when a device was not
+ found or could not be opened.
+- Add the sqlite3 database scripts.
+- Add some patches for 1.36.1 (note, I have now prepared
+ a 1.36.2 with all the patches and some new features --
+ to be documented).
+- Some minor doc updates.
+- Add Arno's baculareport.pl script to the examples directory.
+29Jan05 -- after vacation
+- Add support for SQLite3 (it seems to run at 1/2 the speed
+ of SQLite2). Use --with-sqlite3 instead of --with-sqlite
+ to get SQLite3.
+- Add target for running qemu to boot Rescue CDROM
+- Add code to support kernel 2.6 in Rescue CDROM -- does NOT yet
+ boot correctly.
+- Implement ANSI labels -- not yet tested.

+ Note, more work needed to modify "update" command to handle
+ changing label types, also must restrict volume name lengths
+ to 6 characters.
+- Add new Device, Storage, and MediaType records to DB. No
+ upgrade script yet.
+- Add MediaType to bsr file record types. Not yet used in SD.
+- Permit multiple device specifications in Storage resource in
+ Dir conf file.
+- Implement Device resources. Director requests Device resource
+ info from SD on startup.
+- Note!!!! DIR->SD incompatible with previous versions.
+- Remove multiple Storage definitions in Job resource. One can
+ still specify multiple Storage resources, but they all go into
+ a single alist, and imply sending data to each Storage daemon
+ simultaneously.
+- Implement Device query command between DIR and SD.
+- Allow DIR to "reserve" a Device. It will then be acquired
+ when the FD connects to the SD.
+- Turn all DIR resources into classes, and implement a few class
+ methods -- more to come.
+- Turn DEVICE in SD into a class, and implement a number of inline
+ class methods -- more to come.
+- I had serious problems with ACL errors on my Laptop, and so had
+ to add the following patch:
+ @@ -181,7 +181,7 @@
+ }
+ /***** Do we really want to silently ignore errors from acl_get_file
+ and acl_to_text? *****/
+ - return -1;
+ + return 0;
+ }
+- Added edit_int64()
+- Reworked and tested a bit the htable routines.
+- Major changes to SD acquire.c -- DIR can now reserve devices. Needs
+ lots of testing!!!!
+- Made a special state code for DVD -- this simplifies the logic
+ of the code, but I probably broke it. Testing needed!!!!
+- Add AutoChanger resource to SD, but not yet used.
+
+Changes to 1.37.2:
+12Jan05
+- Integrate Preben 'Peppe' Guldberg <peppe@wielders.org>'s

+ and old restore.c in filed. Also turn off code in new
+ acl.c because of errors. The new code, when fully implemented
+ moves platform specific code into acl.c.
+ One of the patches also implements WildFile and WildDir -- thanks.
+01Jan05
+- Implement Python in the SD (no events yet though).
+- Fix some typos in the previous commit.
+30Dec04

+ later.
+- Add memtest option to CDROM boot.
+- Include Nicolas' changes to fix llist JobMedia records.

+ if you like this one. Other code works with concatenated strings, though.
+ ws.patch.03.trailing:
+ This removes trailing whitespace. No changes resulted from this for
+ my setup.

+- Correct despooling size reported to be Job specific rather
+ than for the whole drive.
+18Dec04
+- Fix bug 207. jcr use count off by one when manually
+ scheduling jobs.
+- Remove FNMATCH test in configure.in and always use
+ the one in our library to get the FN_CASEFOLD GNU
+ extensions on all platforms.
+- While using the rescue CDROM after my computer would not
+ boot, I realized that it would be very useful to have
+ a umount_disks. So, it is not implemented, along with
+ updates to the READMEs and some minor tweaks.
+- Moved mounting the CDROM in the rescue boot from /cdrom
+ to /mnt/cdrom (more standard location).
+- Reboot in CDROM rescue should now work -- requires -d
+ option (no write) to work.
+- Hopefully fixed all the IPV6/4 problems and buffer
+ problems with networking in lib. Bugs 190 and 204.
+ Cleaned up a lot of #ifdefing problems by using routines
+ in address_conf.c

+06Dec04
+- Integrated Preben 'Peppe' Guldberg <peppe@wielders.org>
+ patch to backup directories skipped (due to no file system
+ changes or no recursion), and to add a slash to the end
+ of the directory name during the match process.
+- Implement Jamie ffolliott <jamieff@inline.net>
