+History:
+The original Bacula code was Copyright Kern Sibbald and John Walker.
+After November 2004, it became Copyright Kern Sibbald, and finally,
+the copyright was transferred to the Free Software Foundation Europe
+on 15 November 2006.
+
+Trademark:
+The name Bacula is a registered trademark of Kern Sibbald.
+
+===================================
+
+License:
+For the most part, Bacula is licensed under the GPL version 2 this
+code is listed under Copyright Free Software Foundation Europe e.V.
+What follows is the addition(s) to the GPL version 2 license, that
+applies to code that is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation
+Europe e.V.
+
+Linking:
+As a special exception to the GPLv2, the Bacula Project gives
+permission to link the code of its release of Bacula with the OpenSSL
+project's "OpenSSL" library (or with modified versions of it that use
+the same license as the "OpenSSL" library), and distribute the linked
+executables. You must obey the GNU General Public License in all
+respects for all of the code used other than "OpenSSL".
+
+As a special exception to the GPLv2, the Bacula Project gives
+permission to link the code of its release of the Bacula Win32 File
+daemon with the Microsoft supplied Volume Shadow Copy (VSS) libraries
+and distribute the linked executables. You must obey the GNU General
+Public License in all respects for all of the code used other than for
+the Microsoft VSS code, where you must obey their license terms.
+
+The Bacula Project gives permission for plugins with GPLv2 compatible
+licenses to be loaded and distributed with the Bacula executables as
+long as the combined work is distributed under the terms listed in the
+Bacula LICENSE file. A full list of GPLv2 compatible licenses can be
+found at: http://www.fsf.org/licensing/licenses/. If you wish to load
+or distribute plugins with different licensing terms please contact
+the Bacula Project at: license@bacula.org

+===================================
+
+
+What follows is information from the authors of the code:
+
+License:
+To the best of our knowledge, all code used in Bacula, which is
+copyrighted by a third party, has licenses that are compatible
+with the OpenSSL license, and so given the exception that we have
+made to the GPLv2 above, Bacula can be freely linked and distributed
+with the OpenSSL libraries.
+
+Intellectual Property rights:
+Recipient understands that although each Contributor to Bacula grants
+the licenses to its Contributions set forth herein, no assurances are

+patent or other intellectual property rights of any other entity.
+Each Contributor disclaims any liability to Recipient for claims
+brought by any other entity based on infringement of intellectual
+property rights or otherwise. As a condition to exercising the rights
+and licenses granted hereunder, each Recipient hereby assumes sole
+responsibility to secure any other intellectual property rights
+needed, if any. For example, if a third party patent license is
+required to allow Recipient to distribute the Program, it is
+Recipient's responsibility to acquire that license before distributing
+the Program.
+
+Copyrights:
+Each Contributor to Bacula represents that to its knowledge it has
+sufficient copyright rights in its Contribution, if any, to grant
+the copyright license set forth in this Agreement.

+
+ GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+ Version 2, June 1991
+
+ Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
+ 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+ Preamble
+
+ The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
+freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
+License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free
+software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This
+General Public License applies to most of the Free Software
+Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to
+using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
+the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to
+your programs, too.
+
+ When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it
+if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it
+in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
+
+ To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
+anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.
+These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you
+distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
+
+ For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
+gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that
+you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
+source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their
+rights.
+
+ We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and
+(2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,
+distribute and/or modify the software.
+
+ Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain
+that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free
+software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we
+want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so
+that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original
+authors' reputations.
+
+ Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
+patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
+program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the
+program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any
+patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
+
+ The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow.
+\f
+ GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+ TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
+
+ 0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains
+a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed
+under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below,
+refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program"
+means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law:
+that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
+either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another
+language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in
+the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
+
+Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
+covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
+running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
+is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the
+Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
+Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
+
+ 1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's
+source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you
+conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate
+copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the
+notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty;
+and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License
+along with the Program.
+
+You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and
+you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
+
+ 2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion
+of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and
+distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
+above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+ a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
+ stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
+
+ b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in
+ whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any
+ part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third
+ parties under the terms of this License.
+
+ c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively
+ when run, you must cause it, when started running for such
+ interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
+ announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a
+ notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide
+ a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under
+ these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this
+ License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but
+ does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
+ the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
+\f
+These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
+identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program,
+and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
+themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
+sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
+distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
+on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
+this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
+entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.
+
+Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
+your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
+exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
+collective works based on the Program.
+
+In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program
+with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of
+a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
+the scope of this License.
+
+ 3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it,
+under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of
+Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
+
+ a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable
+ source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections
+ 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
+
+ b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
+ years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your
+ cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete
+ machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be
+ distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
+ customarily used for software interchange; or,
+
+ c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer
+ to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is
+ allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you
+ received the program in object code or executable form with such
+ an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
+
+The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for
+making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source
+code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any
+associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
+control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
+special exception, the source code distributed need not include
+anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
+form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the
+operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
+itself accompanies the executable.
+
+If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering
+access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent
+access to copy the source code from the same place counts as
+distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
+compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
+\f
+ 4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
+except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
+otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is
+void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
+However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under
+this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
+parties remain in full compliance.
+
+ 5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
+signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
+distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are
+prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
+modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the
+Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
+all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
+the Program or works based on it.
+
+ 6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the
+Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
+original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to
+these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
+restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
+You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to
+this License.
+
+ 7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
+infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
+conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
+distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
+may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent
+license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by
+all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
+the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
+refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
+
+If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under
+any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
+apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other
+circumstances.
+
+It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
+patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
+such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
+integrity of the free software distribution system, which is
+implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
+generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
+through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
+system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
+to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
+impose that choice.
+
+This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
+be a consequence of the rest of this License.
+\f
+ 8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in
+certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
+original copyright holder who places the Program under this License
+may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding
+those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
+countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates
+the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
+
+ 9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
+of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
+be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+address new problems or concerns.
+
+Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
+specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any
+later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions
+either of that version or of any later version published by the Free
+Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of
+this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
+Foundation.
+
+ 10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free
+programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author
+to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free
+Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes
+make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals
+of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and
+of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
+
+ NO WARRANTY
+
+ 11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
+FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
+OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES
+PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED
+OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
+MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS
+TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
+PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING,
+REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+
+ 12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
+REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
+INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING
+OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
+TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY
+YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER
+PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
+POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
+
+ END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+\f
+ How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+
+ If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+
+ To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
+to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+
+ <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+ Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
+
+ This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
+ it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
+ the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
+ (at your option) any later version.
+
+ This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+ but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+ MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
+ GNU General Public License for more details.
+
+ You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
+ along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
+ Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA
+
+
+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+
+If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this
+when it starts in an interactive mode:
+
+ Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
+ Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
+ This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
+ under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
+
+The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
+parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may
+be called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be
+mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
+
+You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
+school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
+necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
+
+ Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
+ `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.
+
+ <signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989
+ Ty Coon, President of Vice
+
+This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
+proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may
+consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the
+library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
+Public License instead of this License.

+Bacula Version 3.0.1 has been released to Source Forge.
+
+Note, if you are not already running 3.0.0, please read the 3.0.0 release notes. Important!!!
+
+Version 3.0.1 is primarily a minor bug fix update to version 3.0.0 with
+one enhancement (see below).
+
+Changes since 3.0.0:
+Bug fixes:
+ 1276, 1274, 1275, 1272 1246, 1268, 1281, 1282.
+
+Fixed:
+- Check for job_canceled() in fd_plugin code.
+- Update Win32 table creation to have new DB version 11 format
+- Remove illegal Options in Exclude of default Win32/64 bacula-dir.conf
+- Remove 'Reposition' messages when restoring
+- Updated projects file
+- Tweak version string to display versionid field at the end
+ and keep fields order.
+ - Add additional mysql connection debug code submitted by:
+ Chandranshu <chandranshu@gmail.com>
+
+Enhancement:
+- Modify insertion of read Volumes in SD to be done *before* the
+ drive reservation. This ensures that a Volume to be read will not
+ be reserved for writing. Significant improvement in eliminating
+ tape deadlock situations.
+
+Note, both the Director and Storage daemons must be upgraded at the
+same time. The 3.0.1 File daemons are compatible with 3.0.0 file
+daemons and as noted below in the 3.0.0 release notes the Director
+and Storage daemon should be compatible with 2.4.x File daemons.
+In general, we do not expect any of the 3.0.x File daemons to work with older
+Directors and Storage daemons (as has always been the case for Bacula
+releases).
+
+============ Documentation improvements needed ==================
+
+Note!!!!! The 3.0.0+ documentation needs rather extensive modifications in the
+following areas:
+
+1. Missing documentation.
+2. Correction of links within various manuals -- most fail.
+3. Integration of the new features into the main documents.
+4. Much more.
+
+The documentation will not be completed in the near future due to lack
+manpower. If you are unhappy with this situation as we are, we suggest
+you help by submitting patches to the documentation. Thanks.

+Bacula Version 3.0.0 has been released to Source Forge.
+
+This is to inform you that we have uploaded the Bacula version 3.0.0 source
+tar files and the Win32/64 installer files to the Bacula Source Forge
+download location.
+
+There are quite a number of new features in this release, and upgrading to it
+requires a database upgrade, so please read the release notes carefully
+(included below) and the documentation for the new features at:
+
+http://www.bacula.org/manuals/es/concepts/concepts/New_Features.html
+
+There is still a good deal of work to do to finish the release process (mainly
+reorganizing the web site manuals ...), but at least the source files are
+released. The rpms should follow shortly (probably this weekend).
+
+If you are currently using 2.4.4, please note that within a few months that
+version will no longer be supported, so please consider the possibility of
+upgrading.
+
+This release probably has the most new features that we have ever released,
+and it has taken a long time to produce it. The basic code is very well
+tested, and if you stick to 2.4.4 features, you are unlikely to experience
+problems. However, many of the new features have not been well tested, so
+your help will be appreciated.
+
+The following issues with 3.0.0 are known and we are working on them:
+
+1. The documentation is not 100% complete (there are so many new features that
+we missed documenting some).
+
+2. All the new documentation is in the New Features chapter, but not all of it
+has yet been integrated back into the appropriate chapters.
+
+3. James has reported that the Exchange plugin may crash if you cancel a job
+while it is running. He is working on this.
+
+4. The SD has many new features that will make it more stable. One in
+particular is that it knows what Volumes will be read during a migration,
+copy, or Virtual backup job, and will ensure that they are not selected for
+writing (something easy to do if you are using disk files and the same pool
+for reading an writing). However, the day after the release was cut, I found
+a problem with this code that prevents it from working properly during
+certain pre-allocations of the write tape.
+
+5. There is still an outstanding bug report on VSS failing (it seems to be a
+bit of a rare case).
+
+As I previously announced, we will now make 3.0.0 our main release source code
+stream, and we hope to release new version every six months and bug fix
+updates even sooner. To be able to do this, we will support version 2.4.4
+only for a few more months. There after the project will only support the
+most current release ...
+
+This release comprises a lot of work by a lot of different people and many
+contributions. Normally I hesitate to mention particular people or
+contributions because I always forget someone, but since this was such a big
+release, I would like to mention at least the big contributions:

+================================
+
+
+ Release Notes for Bacula 3.0.0
+
+ Bacula code: Total files = 520 Total lines = 205,459 (*.h *.c *.in)
+
+The diff between 2.4.4 and 2.5.x is 208,340 lines, so this release
+represents an enormous effort.
+
+This Director and Storage daemon must be upgraded at the same time,
+but they should be compatible with all 2.4.x File daemons, unless you
+use some of the new features that affect the FD. In other words, you should
+not have to upgrade all your File daemons when you upgrade. However, any
+release of version 2.5.40 or greater requires a database upgrade.
+
+================== Warning !!!!!! ==========================
+
+New Catalog format in version 3.0.0 (2.5.40 or later)
+-----------------------------------------------------
+
+This release of Bacula uses a new catalog format. We provide a set of
+scripts that permit to convert a 2.4.x (version 10) catalog to 3.0.0 (version
+11). The Bacula project rpms distributed on Source Forge will automatically
+detect the database change and do the upgrade for you. We strongly
+recommend that you save a copy of your existing database before upgrading
+using rpms.
+
+The simplest way to upgrad the database assuming you are building from
+source:
+1. Stop any current version of Bacula from running.
+2. Save a copy of your existing database.
+3. Configure, build, and install the 3.0.0 version of Bacula
+ Note the new ./configure options in the manuals see the link
+ at the bottom of this file.
+4. cd <your-scripts-installation-directory>
+5. ./update_bacula_tables
+6. If you have multiple catalogs, edit the update_bacula_tables
+ script and put the name of another database, and then
+ execute the script again. Repeat this until all Bacula
+ catalogs have been updated.
+7. Start the new Bacula. If everything worked, it should
+ not print any error messages.
+
+The upgrade operation will convert the FileId index field of the File table
+from 32 bits to 64 bits. This operation will take TIME and will *temporarily*
+DOUBLE THE SIZE of your catalog. Bacula must be shutdown during this update,
+so, won't be able to run jobs during this period. For example, a 3 million
+files
+catalog will take 2 mins to upgrade on a normal machine. Don't forget to
+backup it before executing the script.
+
+If you start from scratch, you don't need to run the update_bacula_tables
+script because the create_bacula_tables script automatically creates the new
+table format. However, if you are using a version of Bacula older than 2.5.40
+(e.g. 2.4.4) then you need to run the update_bacula_tables script that will
+be found in the <bacula>/src/cats directory after you run the ./configure
+command. As mentioned above, before running this script, please backup your
+catalog database, and when you do running it, be sure shutdown Bacula and be
+aware that running the script can take some time depending on your database
+size.
+
+
+Important New configure options :
+----------------------
+
+This release of Bacula 3.0.0 uses libtool by default
+to generate the Bacula libraries as shared objects rather than
+being directly linked in as in prior versions. This means that
+the Bacula shared objects, must either be in a shared object
+directory known to the loader or they must be in the directory
+where the Bacula binaries are installed. It is also possible
+to explicitly specify the libraries directory on the ./configure
+line (--libdir=/full-path/dir), but this should not be necessary.
+
+ ./configure --libdir=<full-path>
+
+If you have problems with libtool or you wish to use the old
+way of building libraries and linking them into Bacula, you
+can do so by disabling libtool on the configure command line with:
+
+ ./configure --disable-libtool
+
+During the installation of Bacula 3.0.0, it will now install
+bat help files (if you have configured bat). These files
+are placed in /usr/share/doc/bacula/html by default. If you
+want to put them elsewhere use:
+
+ ./configure --htmldir=<full-path>
+
+During the installation of Bacula, it will now install the
+ReleaseNotes, License, technotes, ChangeLog, and similar
+files in /usr/share/doc/bacula by default. If you
+want to put them elsewhere use:
+
+ ./configure --docdir=<full-path>
+
+During the installation of Bacula, any plugins will be
+installed in the plugindir, which is by default the
+same as libdir (/usr/lib). You can specify an alternate
+location with:
+
+ ./configure --with-plugindir=<full-path>
+
+==============================================================
+
+This release includes large number of new features and changes.
+It should be more or less compatible with previous xx.conf files
+and File daemons providing that you are not using any of the new
+features.
+
+Please see the New Features chapter of the new manual, which documents
+some but not all the new features (we are still working on it):
+
+http://www.bacula.org/manuals/es/concepts/concepts/New_Features.html
+
+The ChangeLog has more details.

+Critical 2.4.3-orphaned-jobs.patch released
+We recently found and corrected a serious bug in Bacula that causes jobs to be
+orphaned or "stuck" in the director during the pruning process. Depending on
+what jobs get stuck and how many there are, it could prevent additional jobs
+from running. As best we can tell, this problem occurs only during what could
+be called extreme pruning conditions -- i.e. there are insufficient Volumes
+available for normal operations.
+
+In any case, we recommend that everyone apply the 2.4.3-orphaned-jobs.patch,
+which you can find in the bacula-patches section of the Source Forge download
+area as well as in the directory patches of both the trunk and Branch-2.4 SVN.

+Creation of Bacula Systems SA
+Dear Members of the Bacula Community,
+
+I'm pleased to announce the creation of Bacula Systems S.A., a new company to
+provide professional support and service for Bacula. I believe you will be
+pleased to see how we have married a strong commitment to the ethos of honest
+open source software with the availability of services desired by a wide
+range of Bacula users.
+
+As many of you know, I began work on Bacula in 2000 and released the first
+public version in April 2002 to Source Forge. Although I have personally
+written a very substantial part of the code, I offer sincere thanks to the
+many members of the community who have provided ideas, fixes, testing, and
+contributions of code, without which Bacula would not be what it is today.
+It has been a labor of love and I am pleased that so many people have found
+Bacula useful.
+
+Before telling you more about Bacula Systems, let me reiterate my unfaltering,
+ongoing commitment to open source software and the Bacula open source
+project. The code for Bacula and all future releases will remain available as
+free open source software under the GPL license that I transferred to the
+protection of the Free Software Foundation of Europe. Unlike some other open
+source projects, there will be no separate "enterprise" or proprietary
+version of the Bacula source code. www.bacula.org will continue to be the
+home for Bacula project development.
+
+So, why create Bacula Systems? The company was created to respond to requests
+from users who want professional support with guaranteed levels of service
+and response times. To ensure continuity and the highest level of knowledge
+transfer, I will take the position of Chairman of the Board and Chief
+Technical Officer of Bacula Systems S.A..
+
+Several members of the Bacula community have joined me to start the company.
+The other team members are also strongly dedicated to the spirit of keeping
+Bacula open and free while simultaneously offering commercial services to
+those for whom it is essential in making the decision to deploy Bacula.
+Bacula Systems is self-financed -- the initial capital comes from the
+founders; no outside venture capital was sought or accepted. This means we
+have the power to establish the company's priorities and we can remain
+dedicated to "honest open source". Bacula Systems S.A. is a Swiss company
+with offices in Yverdon-les-Bains, and with branches in France and Germany
+initially. We will open additional branches as business requires.
+
+I will continue to support development of Bacula via bacula.org and the Bacula
+community. Future developments will be in the "community" code base which
+will remain free. Bacula Systems will offer "funded development" to
+customers who wish to accelerate the addition of certain features to Bacula.
+Code developed this way will be contributed to the free distribution and will
+be available to the entire community at no charge. Bacula Systems will
+provide additional fee-based services, including high quality consulting,
+training, documentation and certified binaries.
+
+Our goal in establishing Bacula Systems is to be inclusive of the community,
+and expand it by creating opportunities for members of the Bacula community
+through a well-defined Partner Program. If you provide IT services or
+consulting, the Bacula Systems Partner Program can provide you with the
+additional back-up (pardon the pun) support you need to serve your customers
+more effectively.
+
+Our plan is to develop an international network of partners who offer high
+value added services to Bacula users -- installing, configuring and optimizing
+Bacula for their customers, as well as Level 3 and 4 support, with guaranteed
+service levels. We will also provide training and tools to our partners.
+
+The Bacula project website, www.bacula.org, and Source Forge will be unchanged
+in the mission and ideals of being free sources of information, mail lists
+and forum-based support for and by the community. Both Bacula source code and
+Bacula binaries will continue to be available for free, as in the past, and
+new releases will also be available for free. The new commercial website,
+www.baculasystems.com will provide information on commercial subscriptions
+for those users who want guaranteed levels of service, support, documentation
+and certified binaries.
+
+All members of the Bacula community are encouraged to register for free at
+www.baculasystems.com, so that you will receive announcements and news about
+our commercial activities, and so that you can send feedback to our new
+company, Bacula Systems.
+
+Thank you for your interest and participation in the Bacula community.
+
+Sincerely,
+
+Kern Sibbald

+Bacula version 2.4.3 Released
+This is to let you know that the source tar files and the Win32 binaries for
+Bacula version 2.4.3 have been released to the Bacula Source Forge download
+area.
+
+Release 2.4.3
+ This is a bug fix to version 2.4.2. All daemons are compatible
+ with other 2.4.x versions.
+
+Bugs Fixed:
+ 1159, 1162. 1149, 1128, 1143, 1140, 1129
+
+Change Summary:
+- Apply 2.4.2-cancel-non-running-jobs.patch to be able to cancel
+ a non created job faster.
+- This should correct bug #1159 where Migration does not properly
+ respect the Migration Low Bytes directive.
+- Fix typo in configure.in that breaks --with-db-password option
+- This code should fix the race condition that leads to a Director
+ crash at job end time when the job list is updated. This was reported
+ in bug #1162.
+- Remove all double quotes from SQLite creating script and
+ replace by single quotes as suggested by John Huttley.
+- Fix SQL case problem that may cause the failure of DiskToCatalog
+ in bug #1149.
+- Copy missing storage name into edit buffer. As far as I can tell
+ this never caused a bug.
+- Remove catalog dependency for bcopy
+- Modify catalog scripts to have an easier packaging integration,

+- Add more information to SD acquire.c INFO messages.
+- Fix NULL Volume name error when reading and the drive must
+ be switched.
+- Fix a Verify InitCatalog problem where in certain cases
+ a garbage filename may be entered in the verification database. This

+Bacula version 2.4.2 Released
+This is to inform you that we have released the source and Win32 binaries of
+Bacula version 2.4.2 to the Bacula Source Forge download area.
+
+ This is an important bug fix release since version 2.4.1.
+
+Bugs Fixed:
+ 1034, 1125, 1118, 1124, 1107, 1129, 1126
+
+Change Summary:
+26Jul08
+- When a migration job actually runs, re-check the Job record
+ and skip if the job is already migrated. This should
+ significantly reduce the problems with bug #1129.
+- Break the do_swapping into do_unload, do_swapping, and
+ do_load. It is much more logical that way.
+- Implement a set_dcr_from_vol subroutine in acquire.c for
+ reading volumes. This allows the dcr to be refreshed after being
+ zapped when the wrong volume is mounted. This should fix bug #1126 -
+- During multiple tape restore, bacula
+ does not ask for physical tape change, but rereads same tape
+- Apply patch submitted for bug #1107 with a small modification.
+ This fixes a bug where bcopy copied too many records.
+- Make some tweaks to bsmtp based on patch submitted in bug #1124.
+ This fixes bug #1124.
+- Make the default bat restore Pool be Any. This fixes bug #1118.
+- Fix bug #1125 which reports a SD crash at the end of a tape
+ during restore. It was a debug statement that should not be
+ in a release.
+- Fix #1034 by setting big timeout on mysql connections
+- Do partial integration of the Win32 bat build created by Eric.
+- Ensure that SD tried to mount a volume not in an autochanger
+ at least once before asking for operator intervention.
+- Fix a pthreads bug in the Win32 pthreads emulation code affects only
+ version 2.5.x and above.

+Bacula version 2.4.1 Released
+This is to inform you that we have released the source and Win32 binaries of
+Bacula version 2.4.1 to the Bacula Source Forge download area.
+
+Bugs Fixed:
+ 1103, 1100, 1105, 1094, 1109, 1106, 1101, 1102, 1112
+ 1117, 1116, 1097.
+
+Change summary:
+- Clear in-use bit on vol when unused while swapping.
+- Remove sleep at end of ./bacula
+- Clear hash packet for hardlinked files correctly. This corrects
+ a long standing bug where hardlinked files selected individually
+ would occasionally not be restored.
+- Apply Eric's patch to ensure that autoprune does not return
+ a Volume not in the autochanger unless requested to do so.
+- Correct bat restore display of multiple drives. This fixes
+ bug #1117.
+- Do find_a_volume() each time an unload is done. This
+ fixes the failure of maxvol2-test.
+- Use Qmsg() in job.c watchdog callback.
+- Release main control rwlock if ABORTing.
+- Make watchdog connect timeout queue messages rather than sending
+ directly to avoid lock conflicts with the real thread.
+- Remove const char that causes problems with Python, which has
+ older 'incorrect' headers.
+- Add const char in dbd.c to avoid compiler warnings.
+- Fix mtx-changer to detect both versions of Ubuntu (Debian)
+ mt. This fixes bug #1116.
+- Fix failure of 2drive-concurrent-test. Always read label;
+ clear_unload() only after drive is defined in acquire_for_read().
+- Generally clean up the manual tape loading code. The main
+ conceptial 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.
+- Fix a recycling problem with two autochangers reported in bug
+ #1106. This may also (unlikely) fix a second recycling bug as
+ reported in #1103.
+- Fix a SD lock volumes deadlock problem reported in bug #1100.
+- Fix format problem in bscan output reported in bug #1105.
+- Copy more data when restarting a job so that run
+ overrides are kept. This should fix bug #1094.
+- Backport updates to jobq.c where possible.
+- Fix bug where SD did not ask operator if the device could not
+ be opened. Reported by Eric.
+- Add dbuser to DIR conf file (replaces user).
+- Add --with-db-password to ./configure
+- Fix regress to handle db_password.
+- Fix a couple of pedantic compiler warnings.
+- Fix bug when starting a restore on a storage that doesn't
+ have the requested MediaType.
+- More work on word alignments -- eliminate all ints from
+ the configuration routines.
+- Fix bug reported by Scott Barninger where the bacula script
+ refers to scripts in the wrong directory. Needed to meet the
+ requirements of recent FHS location changes.
+- Fix word alignment problem on non-Intel 64 bit machines
+ such as Solaris. This should fix bug #1097 -- bus error in SD.
+- Add missing win32/patches/wxWidgets.patch to 2.4 repository.

+Bacula version 2.4.0 Released
+This is to inform you that we have released the source and Win32 binaries of
+Bacula version 2.4.0 to the Bacula Source Forge download area.
+
+This release consists mainly of a number of bug fixes since 2.2.x
+but most importantly, a rewrite of significant portions of the
+Storage daemon reservation and autochanger code. This rewritten
+code is simpler, more stable, and works much better, particularly
+with multiple drive autochangers than the prior code did. That
+said, there are still a number of issues to be resolved. Note,
+the new code has not been tested in manual volume mount situations.
+
+As usual, we strongly recommend when installing to keep the Director and the
+Storage daemon on the same version. However, since this release only
+contains refactored code and bug fixes rather than new features, the clients
+(File daemons) should function perfectly with any 2.2.x version, and there is
+no database upgrade needed.
+
+=====================================================
+
+ Release Notes for Bacula 2.4.0
+
+ Bacula code: Total files = 500 Total lines = 188,654 (*.h *.c *.in)
+
+This Director and Storage daemon must be upgraded at the same time,
+but they should be compatible with all 2.0.x File daemons, unless you
+use some of the new features that affect the FD. In other words, you should
+not have to upgrade all your File daemons when you upgrade. There is
+no database upgrade needed from version 2.0.x to 2.2.0 nor from version
+2.2.x to version 2.4.0
+
+================== Warning !!!!!! ==========================
+As of Version 2.4.0, the Win32 FD should not descend into
+any reparse point directory or reparse mount points unless the
+specified directory is explicitly mentioned at the top level of
+FileSet (as with Unix). A file that is linked to another file will
+be backed up, much like Unix hardlinked files. If you want
+reparse directories backed up, you must explicitly include them
+in your FileSet.
+======================================================
+
+This release consists mainly of a number of bug fixes since 2.2.x
+but most importantly, a rewrite of significant portions of the
+Storage daemon reservation and autochanger code. This rewritten
+code is simpler, more stable, and works much better, particularly
+with multiple drive autochangers than the prior code did. That
+said, there are still a number of issues to be resolved. Note,
+the new code has not been tested in manual volume mount situations.
+
+Bugs fixed:
+ 1095, 1086, 1091, 1070, 1041, 1083, 1078, 1066, 1068, 1038
+ 1062, 1065, 1046, 1047, 1031
+
+New features:
+- You can now build bat without the QWT libraries. Use
+ --without-qwt as a ./configure option.
+
+Release Version 2.4.0
+- Update version to 2.4.0 to reflect the magnitude of the SD changes.
+- Make sure to clear JS_WaitMedia when operator mounts a Volume.
+ This fixes bug #1095.
+- Add create_postgresql_database.sql to Win32 installer. Should
+ fix problem reported by Juilio Monteiro.
+- Get correct slot when auto unloading a device. This fixes bug
+ #1086.
+- Fix possible seg fault if SQL error.
+- Fix renaming a Volume, which used the wrong Volume name.
+- If operator has rewind tape, print warning, release tape and
+ try once more. If tape is positioned somewhere, something went
+ wrong, so mark the tape in error and try once more. Previously
+ this error was fatal, now it produces an error message.
+- Ensure correct volume name displayed during restore
+- Fix a few more Coverity reported problems.
+- Fix #1091 about bad output in estimate command.
+- Modify autochanger locking to attempt to avoid race
+ conditions.
+- Make sure device not busy before doing label command.
+- Display open() errors except when polling. Previously too
+ many were suppressed. This should fix bug #1070.
+- Fix Win32 reparse points. Bacula will not recurse into any
+ reparse point directory, including mount points, unless the
+ directory is explicitly mentioned at the top level (same as
+ with Unix). A file that is linked to another file will be
+ backed up -- much as Unix does for hardlinked files.
+ This fixes bug #1041.
+- Remove StorageId test when pruning and recycling (Eric's changes).
+- Fix buffer overruns detected by Coverity.
+- Implement --without-qwt
+- Fix layout of restore tree dialog
+- Add configure bat QWT libraries, so that bat can be built
+ with or without the QWT libaries.
+- Implement regression that explicitly tests swapping a Volume
+ from one drive to another.
+- Enhance disk-changer to detect most error conditions.
+- Fix SD code so that it properly swaps a Volume between drives.
+ This fixes bug #1083.
+- Prevent a Volume that is being swapped from being freed from
+ the volume list. This will most likely fix, at least partially,
+ bug #1083.
+- Fix strippath so that it does not get a buffer overrun and crash FD.
+ This fixes bug #1078.
+- Make inability to change owner/group when creating a dir only a
+ warning rather than an error.
+- Fix SQL query in migration code
+- Fix bat seg fault at termination.
+- Add Bacula generated version to bat about box.
+- Backport development stream SD reservation system changes.
+- When wrong volume is mounted during read, unload_autochanger.
+- Stop searching for Volumes in SD askdir if DIR returns the
+ same volume name twice in a row.
+- Rework class structures for VOLRES, DCR, and DEVICE to make
+ the method names a bit more logical, and for more logically
+ handling the responsibilities.
+- Remove redundant code in terminating the scheduler that just
+ causes a seg fault in many cases.
+- Improve algorithm for detecting pre-reserved volume and
+ swapping volumes.
+- Prevent volume from being released while being swapped.
+- Refactor parts of stored/mount.c
+- Add sanity checks for VolWriteTime and VolReadTime
+- Take care of bad clock changes while computing VolWriteTime
+ and VolReadTime. This should fix or limit #1066
+- Correct error string numbers in dird/catreq.c
+- Restructure reserving, acquiring, and mounting volumes. Calls to
+ autochanger are deferred for mount.c -- simplifes the code.
+- Do not prune any running job. It just fails the job.
+- Lock the volumes when changing dev->reserved_device and marking
+ the volume unused otherwise the device can get reserved by
+ another job before the volume is released, thus blocking it.
+- Correct some SD catalog request error messages.
+- Turn off code in read_record that causes a seg fault in the SD
+ when reading past an EOS_LABEL.
+- Turn off unloading the autochanger in reserve.c as it just
+ causes problems.
+- Lock volumes when unreserving a device.
+- Do not mark volume unused when recycling.
+- Fix bug #1068 fixes a SD crash when using Virtual autochanger.
+- Generate correct JobMedia records during spooling/despooling when
+ running concurrent jobs. Thanks to Tom Ivar Helbekkmo
+ <tih@hamartun.priv.no> for excellent analysis and testing.
+- *Massive* commit of all fixes and back ports to create 2.2.9
+ Mostly SD reservations enhancements.
+- Fix Win32 FD backup/restore memory leak due to improper termination
+ of BackupRead/Write. This fixes bug# 1038.
+- Fixes a StorageId problem with volumes after migration.
+- Implements autostart scripts for Debian
+- Fix mtx-changer.in for broken Debian mt program.
+- Apply doc fix from bug #1062.
+- Resolve crash and improper restore wx-console Win32 restore
+ GUI. Fixes bug #1065.
+- Update Win32 wxWidgets to latest version.
+- Attempt to do correct handling of Win32 mount points. Should
+ fix bug #1046.
+- Add const to AIX prototype for initgroups()
+- Fix to the JobMedia patch, which introduced a new problem.
+- Fix creating first JobMedia record during Migration to include
+ proper index. This caused slow restores of migrated jobs.
+- Fix bug #1047, do not strip paths on symbolic links.
+- Set catalog backup database and user name from values specified on
+ the ./configure line.
+- Apply patch to correct bug #1031, about wrong pool source information
+ in job report.

+Kern;;;29 Sept 2007;;20:30
+A serious data loss bug in Bacula version 2.2.4 found and fixed
+
+This bug was very elusive and time consuming to track down. It
+turned out to be a race condition that can lose the last one or
+two blocks of a Job, which can happen in rare cases only when
+running multiple simultaneous jobs when a volume fills and one
+Job finishes receiving the last data from the FD and at the same
+time a second job detects the end of the Volume. The bug was
+introduced in version 2.0.0 and did not exist in version 1.38.x.
+If the bug is triggered, the data is lost (not written to the
+Volume), and it can occur for any backup job of any level under
+the conditions noted above.
+
+The bug is reported in the bugs database as bug #964, and just
+this morning I found and tested a fix, which is attached as a patch
+to the bug report. The patch (2.2.4-lost-block.patch) is also
+uploaded to the bacula-patches 2.2.x release area. This bug may
+also be part of the problems reported in bug #935 and possibly
+#903.
+
+Also in the bacula-patches 2.2.x area, you will find other
+patches that fixes bugs #953, 966, 967, 965, 958, 908, and
+955. Please refer to bugs.bacula.org for the details.
+
+Though this bug quite serious (data loss), it should be rare.
+However, we recommend everyone to apply the patch.

+- Possible fix for bug #908.
+- Add waits to multiple exit detection code to try to force pid
+ file to always be deleted.
+- Restore good dev.tar.gz to rescue set appropriate binary property.
+ This fixes bug #950.
+- Fix seg fault in error exit of acquire_for_read after unsuccessfully
+ trying to switch drives by checking for blocking before unblocking.
+ Fixes bug #906.
+- Cancel storage daemon in all cases where FD reports error. This
+ should fix virtually all cases of bug #920 and will ensure that Devices
+ are released as soon as possible.
+- Fix error message that was clobbered when Dir tells SD it does not
+ have write permission on Volume. This should fix a minor point
+ in bug #942, but not the main problem.
+- Fix migration code to get correct Volume name with multiple volumes
+ by skipping |. Fixes bug #936.
+- Implement patch supplied by Landon to fix bug #944 where using
+ TLS with bconsole uses 99+% of the CPU.
+- Fix bug #946 about "bacula-dir -t" which doesn't works
+ as expected.
+- Using "m" in bconsole will show messages as in prior versions
+ and not memory usage.
+
+- Note, you need GTK >= 2.10 to be able to link the Tray Monitor
+ program.

+Kern;;;2007/9/9;;;14:30
+I regret to announce that there is a rather serious bug in Bacula.
+
+Bacula bug #935 reports that during a restore, a large number of files are
+missing and thus not restored. This is really quite surprising because we
+have a fairly extensive regression test suite that explicitly tests for this
+kind of problem many times.
+
+Despite our testing, there is indeed a bug in Bacula that has the following
+characteristics:
+
+1. It happens only when multiple simultaneous Jobs are run (regardless of
+whether or not data spooling is enabled), and happens only when the
+Storage daemon is changing from one Volume to another -- i.e. the
+backups span multiple volumes, and it only happens for Jobs writing
+to the same volume.
+
+2. It has only been observed on disk based backup, but not on tape.
+
+3. Under the right circumstances (timing), it could and probably does happen
+on tape backups.
+
+4. It seems to be timing dependent, and requires multiple clients to
+reproduce, although under the right circumstances, it should be reproducible
+with a single client doing multiple simultaneous backups.
+
+5. Analysis indicates that it happens most often when the clients are slow
+(e.g. doing Incremental backups).
+
+6. It has been verified to exist in versions 2.0.x and 2.2.x.
+
+7. It should also be in version 1.38, but could not be reproduced in testing,
+perhaps due to timing considerations or the fact that the test FD daemons
+were version 2.2.2.
+
+8. The data is correctly stored on the Volume, but incorrect index (JobMedia)
+records are stored in the database. (the JobMedia record generated during
+the Volume change contains the index of the new Volume rather than the
+previous Volume). This will be described in more detail below.
+
+9. You can prevent the problem from occurring by either turning off multiple
+simultaneous Jobs or by ensuring that while running multiple simultaneous
+Jobs that those Jobs do not span Volumes. E.g. you could manually mark
+Volumes as full when they are sufficiently large.
+
+10. If you are not running multiple simultaneous Jobs, you will not be
+affected by this bug.
+
+11. If you are running multiple simultaneous Jobs to tapes, I believe there is
+a reasonable probability that this problem could show up when Jobs are split
+across tapes.
+
+12. If you are running multiple simultaneous Jobs to disks, I believe there is
+a high probability that this problem will show up when Jobs are split across
+disks Volumes.
+
+13. The bug concerns only the Storage daemon so there is no need to update
+the clients, though I do recommend updating the Director when installing
+an updated Storage daemon.
+
+I have uploaded patches to bug #935 (bugs.bacula.org) that will correct
+version 2.2.0, 2.2.1, and 2.2.2. The patch has been tested only on version
+2.2.2 and passes all regression tests as well as the specific test that
+reproduced the problem.
+
+The patch has now been confirmed to fix the problem reported, and Bacula
+version 2.2.3 has been released to Source Forge.
+
+For the technical details of the bug, please see:

+Bacula Version 2.2.0 has been released to Source Forge.
+
+ Release Notes for Bacula 2.2.0
+
+ Bacula code: Total files = 520 Total lines = 195,550 (*.h *.c *.in)
+ 82 new files, 41,221 new lines of code, 208,380 lines of change from 2.0.3
+
+This Director and Storage daemon must be upgraded at the same time,
+but they should be compatible with all 2.0.x File daemons, unless you
+use some of the new features that affect the FD. In other words, you should
+not have to upgrade all your File daemons when you upgrade. There is
+no database upgrade needed from version 2.0.x to 2.2.0.
+
+Areas requiring caution or testing:
+- You must have the thread safe version of MySQL client libraries loaded
+ to build with MySQL enabled.
+- Volumes are pruned only when absolutely necessary -- this may cause
+ your database to grow compared to prior Bacula versions.
+- Solaris door and even port files are no longer restored (equivalent
+ to what we do with sockets).
+- SQLite is no longer supported for Solaris -- it fails too often with
+ bus errors. SQLite3 should work on Solaris.
+- The default setting for SQLite3 is now 'PRAGMA synchronous=OFF'.
+ This makes it run 30 times faster, but increases the possiblity
+ of a corrupted database if your server shuts down unexpectedly.
+ The default behavior can be changed in src/version.h
+- Restore on Win32, and in particular on Vista is untested. Please
+ test before relying on it. It should backup and restore reparse
+ points.
+- Win32 servers are untested, and very likely not to work.
+
+The major new features are:
+- Much faster insertion of attributes (somewhere around 10 times),
+ many thanks to Eric Bollengier and Marc Cousin.
+- First release of bat (Bacula Administration Tool). Note to build
+ bat you must explicitly enable it on the ./configure line, you
+ must have the Qt4 version 4.2 or later libraries loaded, the qwt
+ (Qt Graphics) package loaded, and qmake and the other Qt4 tools
+ must be available. Most of the implementation was done by Dirk Bartley.
+- Red/Black restore in memory tree (500 times faster loading).
+- The Regex Where code to allow easier relocation of restored files
+ thanks to Eric.
+- Socket level heartbeat for all connections (untested).
+- posix_fadvise() use in the FD to improve performance reduces
+ swapping due to opening/reading lots of files. Win32 equivalent
+ implemented.
+- Much improved Volume reservation code that should eliminate most
+ conflicts experienced in multiple drive autochangers.
+- Simpler locking in the SD in the reservation system.
+- Detection of file size/date change during backup if enabled.
+- New Recycle Pool feature -- thanks to Eric.
+- Efficient implementation of very large include/exclude lists.
+- Volumes are no longer pruned during 'status dir'
+- Pruning is now more efficient, and if a Volume is purged,
+ during pruning, it is immediately discovered.
+- License is now GPL v2 without modifications, fix a few copyright
+ mistakes made when adding FSFE copyright notice.
+
+New ./configure options:
+- --enable-bwx-console
+- --enable-bat
+- --with-qwt=
+- --with-db-name=
+- --with-db-user=
+- --enable-batch-insert
+
+New bconsole commands:
+- exec
+- memory
+- update recyclepool
+- .sql
+- .api
+- .pwd (in restore tree)
+- restoreclient (keyword)

+Other features or bug fixes:
+- Fixed bugs: 916, 910, 917, 914, 906, 907,
+ 842, 830, 893, 861, 888, 886, 807, 877, 872

+ 766, 621, 761, 755, 750, 741, 747, 742, 744, and 743.
+- Configure bat with --enable-bat. Define qwt libraries with
+ --with-qwt=<dir>. See Installation chapter of manual for details.
+- Create a depkgs-qt package that has both Qt4 and qwt, which are
+ needed to build bat. Most modern Linux systems will have both
+ these packages in the distro.
+- Storage overrides delete all previous storage definitions instead
+ of prepending.
+- One should be able to mount and unmount removable devices if the
+ Device resource has Removeable Media set and the mount and unmount
+ directives are defined.
+- ./configure will do a better job of searching for qwt libraries.
+- The Win32 version can no longer be shutdown from the tray monitor.
+ Use the command line or the Services panne.
+- Keep prune_volumes() from pruning the whole Scratch pool.
+- More debug output in status storage.
+- Correct moving a Scratch volume from pool to pool (some
+ critical columns were lost).
+- Different locking in reservations and despooling systems,
+ which means more micro-locking and less macro-locking, which
+ should give a lot more concurrency at the expense of slightly
+ (<0.1%) more overhead due to more locking/unlocking, but
+ concurrent jobs should run much faster.
+- Additional drive reservation algorithm that should solve a lot of
+ the problems experienced with multiple drive autochangers.
+- Storage daemon status command enhanced to more clearly show Volume,
+ pool and media type when a job is waiting.
+- Made bsmtp work with more strict SMTP servers.
+- Detect doubly freed buffers in smartall.c
+- wx-console renamed to bwx-console (Fedora request)
+- gnome-console renamed to bgnome-console (Fedora request)
+- Migration preserves original job's FileSetId
+- Spooling implemented for migration jobs.
+- Config files can be read through a pipe, by specifying a leading |
+ in front of the configuration path/filename.
+- New memory command (bconsole) that will print the current Director's
+ memory usage, and an in use buffer dump.
+- Console name changed from *Console* to -Console- to accomodate Win32
+ filename restrictions.
+- Corrected the Win32 ftruncate bug.
+- Additional version information added to Job reports.
+- New -8 option for bsmtp to specify UTF-8 encoding type.
+- bsmtp will no longer add < > to target (from, to, cc) if there
+ is already a < in the target.
+- Prefer Mounted Volumes extended to mean a volume that is being
+ mounted by another job.
+- Runscript timing set to same as version 1.38.11
+- New TLS Allowed CN directive(s) permitted.
+- New bconsole 'exec' command to run external script/command.
+- Turn on FreeBSD/OpenBSD code to set EOT model on tape.
+- Drop from root done before database is opened.
+- Database user and name can be configured with:
+ --with-db-name=name --with-db-user=user
+- Turn on wait_for_drive in mtx-changer script.
+- Rework how bar codes are handled in mtx-changer script.
+ This appears to have been an unreported bug.
+- Updated nagios plugin supplied by Christian Masopust
+- Better restricted console ACL checking.
+- New Client Connect Wait directive in Storage daemon so that
+ users can configure how long SD waits for FD connection.
+- Bacula will no longer permit pruning of the currently running
+ job (note, if other jobs are running, they may be pruned).
+- Sockets are no longer restored.
+- dbcheck works in 300K chunks so will typically run faster.
+- Include/Exclude lists can now be efficiently handled for quite
+ large sizes -- tens of thousands of entries.
+- Several memory leaks in migration and database usage were fixed.
+- New console keyword restoreclient, which specifies the client to
+ which the restore will be sent. The client keyword specifies
+ the backup client. The restoreclient keyword is optional if it is
+ not specified, the backup client will also be the restore client.
+- The disk file size is now checked to ensure that it agrees with the
+ catalog value before Bacula will append to the disk (same as tape
+ and DVD).

+Bacula Version 2.0.3 has been released to Source Forge.
+This is a bug fix release to version 2.0.2. If you are upgrading from
+a version older than 2.0.0, please be sure to read the important notes
+below.
+
+Also, please check the patches directory in the current SVN or the
+patches release section on Source Forge for important bug fixes to
+this version.
+
+5Mar07
+kes File migrate bug with Pool Occupancy using mediaid instead
+ of jobids. Fixes bug #795.
+kes Fix orphaned buffers in filed backup and verify due to
+ crypto buffers not freed during errors. Fixes bug #789.
+04Mar07
+kes Add smartctl call to bacula-sd.conf as an example of getting
+ tape alert info.
+02Mar07
+kes Add Client Connect Wait to Storage daemon to permit users to
+ modify the time the SD waits for a FD connection.
+28Feb07
+kes Apply Command ACL filter to JobId list in restore command.
+kes Correct typeo in var.c patch.
+27Feb07
+kes Don't let Bacula prune File or Job records for the current Job.
+kes Fix variable substitution pad + inc bug reported (with patch)
+ in bug #791.
+26Feb07
+kes Correct SQLite log table index as reported by Luca Berra.
+24Feb07
+ebl Fix FIFO stuff, bacula tries to rewind the FIFO... Thanks to Andreas
+22Feb07
+kes Fix a few places in lib/message.c where the open fd may
+ not be zeroed.
+21Feb07
+kes Add LANG=C to autoconf/randpass so it works with languages other
+ than English. Fixes bug #788.
+20Feb07
+ebl Revert ClientRunBeforeJob as it was in 1.38.x
+ This fixes bug #780
+ You will not be able to generate Include/Exclude list any more.
+ If you want to use this, you can apply
+ trunk/bacula/patches/testing/clientrunbeforejob_can_generate_include_exclude_list.patch
+19Feb07
+kes Restore of sockets created false error messages because Bacula
+ no longer restores sockets, but the code was still trying to
+ set the attributes on a non-existent file. Reported by a user.
+16Feb07
+kes Fix encryption deblocking bug, which caused some restored files
+ to be truncated. This fixes bug #763. This is a CRITICAL bug fix.
+kes Add FD event sequence order prepared by Eric -- for RunScripts.
+kes Fix 12am/pm bug as reported in bug #782.
+15Feb07
+kes Add quick disconnect FD code from 2.1.4 to 2.0.3. This code
+ causes the SD to release the FD as soon as the FD has sent
+ all the data to the SD. After that the SD will do any final
+ despooling (data and attributes) that are necessary. This
+ allows laptops to disconnect much quicker from the network
+ after a backup.
+13Feb07
+kes Apply Eric's ClientRunScriptAfter patch to 2.0 and 2.1.
+11Feb07
+kes Optimize the use of the database a bit in the Status dir command.
+ Only open it when needed, ensure that if any previous database
+ was opened, it is closed.
+10Feb07
+kes Modify dbcheck to handle orphaned JobMedia, Path, Filename,
+ and File records in 300K chunks to be more efficient. This
+ idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right).
+09Feb07
+kes Update projects list.
+08Feb07
+kes Fix dird/ua_cmds.c so that a cancel command checks if the
+ console is authorized to cancel the job. This fixes bug
+ #767.
+kes Modify SD so that the VolCatJobs medium record is updated
+ at the beginning of a Job rather than the end. This
+ fixes bug #775 where exceeding MaxVolJobs caused jobs
+ to fail.
+kes Added a mutex around getting and setting Volume information
+ so that multiple simultaneous jobs will single thread.
+07Feb07
+ Switch to using Subversion
+kes Remove src/pygtk-console/ from configure
+06Feb07
+kes Delete src/lib/btree.c from win32 build, then add rblist.c
+ plus the entrypoints.
+kes Apply patch supplied that corrects debug print
+ in canceling jobs for max run time. Supplied as
+ part of bug #621, which was previously fixed.
+05Feb07
+kes Test on job_canceled() and sd_msg_thread_done inside
+ loop starting the message thread to avoid a race condition.
+ Fixes bug #771.
+kes Remove rl_catch_signal from console.c as it conflicted
+ with the header definition. Fixes bug #765.
+ebl Fixes bug #766 about RunsOnClient = Yes (case sensitive)
+04Feb07
+kes Clarify some stored/acquire messages to indicate if the
+ problem is with read or append.
+02Feb07
+kes Fix memory leak with storage ids in cats/sql_get.c
+kes Terminate watchdog earlier to avoid reference to released
+ memory -- reported by Jason Austin.
+kes Move closing the database from jobq.c to the director daemon
+ termination routine. This fixes memory leaks for shadow jobs
+ (i.e. migration jobs).
+kes Free up the unique jobid chain items in migrate.c. This fixes
+ a memory leak problem.
+kes Convert some ugly looking for statements to use foreach_alist
+ in findlib/find.c. This will facilitate converting the structures
+ to use dlist (for large include/exclude lists).
+kes Fix a bug in the btree.c and btree.h routines, then rename them
+ rblist and add them to be built in src/lib. Include some new
+ methods written by Rudolf Cejka that make the code more readable
+ (hides some of the ugly casting).
+26Jan07 (back port)
+kes Implement item #12 on project list -- quick release of FD by
+ the SD. This is noted in more detail above.

+Bacula Version 2.0.1 has been released to Source Forge.
+This is bug fix update to version 2.0.0 and contains
+the following fixes:
+
+- Fix Bacula->Documentation link on Win32 to point to index.html
+ instead of bacula.html. Fixed bug #750.
+- Return JobId in db_get_job_record() when JobId==0. This should
+ fix bug #741.
+- Do not release source pointers when restarting a failed job.
+- Add dynamic dll entry point for SHGetFolderPath to Win32 code.
+ This *should* fix bug #747.
+- Modify winbacula.nsi to substitute with g bin_dir_cmd. Should fix
+ bug #742.
+- Modify USTORE constructor to set an empty store_source string,
+ and don't copy the store_source string in a cancel. Hopefully
+ this will fix Arno's seg fault, bug #744.
+- Add back code to disable conio in configure. Fixes bug #743.
+- Correct the Options scanner in the FD to correctly handle

+Bacula Version 2.0.0 has been released to Source Forge.
+
+There is an English Press Kit, written by Dan Langille at:
+
+ http://www.bacula.org/about/press/presskit200.html.en
+
+and a German version, translated by Arno Lehmann at:
+

+
+ Release Notes for Bacula 2.0.0
+
+ Bacula code: Total files = 438 Total lines = 154,329 (*.h *.c *.in)
+
+==== IMPORTANT Catalog update required =====
+- The database format has been updated from what was used in
+ Bacula 1.38.x. You must manually update your database before
+ running Bacula 1.39.x or higher. If you are using Bacula supplied
+ RPMs this is not necessary as the RPM does it automatically.
+ Please backup your previous version of the database before
+ running the update. The update script will be automatically
+ installed in your scripts directory, or can also be found in
+ <bacula-source>/src/cats. It is called:
+
+ ./update_bacula_tables
+
+ It is necessary to run it only once the first time you move to
+ a 2.0.0. Upgrading the Bacula version thereafter does not
+ require updating the database again. Depending on the size of
+ your database the script make take a bit of time, to run, but
+ in general, it should be very fast.
+
+==== IMPORTANT new Win32 install procedure =====
+ For Win32 migrations from versions prior to 1.39.0 nothing special
+ needs to be done to upgrade. Everything should be taken care of
+ automatically. The only thing not done is to delete the old C:\bacula
+ directory mostly out of paranoia.
+
+==== IMPORTANT miscellaneous ====
+- The Gnome console program (gconsole) no longer functions as it
+ should.More importantly, in restore mode, the restore tree is
+ no longer shown in the left pane. I suspect this is due to
+ incompatible changes in the GTK+ API, and hence have given up
+ on gnome and gtk+, as this has already happened several times
+ previously. At some point there will be a new GUI console.
+- The bacula-dir.conf directive Accept Any Volume has been
+ removed because it was never implemented. You must delete all
+ occurrence of this directive for the Director to run. The Storage
+ daemon will automatically accept any valid Volume that you mount.
+- The --mandir ./configure option now points to the top level man
+ directory. The man files will be installed under mandir/man8 and
+ mandir/man1 as appropriate.
+- You *should* be able to use 1.38.x FDs with version 2.0.0 Director
+ and SD providing you do not use any of the new features (runscript,
+ data encryption). It seems to work here, but we do not guarantee it.
+- Your Director and SD must be simultaneously upgraded.
+- The restore command no longer uses the MediaType as the primary method
+ of finding a suitable Storage device. Normally it will select the last
+ device used to write a Volume. If no storage device is defined, it
+ will use the old algorithm which selects the first Storage resource
+ with the correct MediaType.
+- The MD5/SHA1 hash codes kept in the database are now kept in a binary
+ format compatible with the rest of the world. If you are running verify
+ jobs, you *must* do an InitCatalog or all files will show an MD5
+ difference. Also, authentication uses the new algorithm by
+ default, but *should* accept connections from older components (FD) using
+ the old non-compatible algorithm. This has been tested, but more
+ more testing is still needed.
+- A stock SuSE 10.1 kernel may crash when Bacula runs and accesses
+ the tape drive. Workaround, load the SuSE 10.1 version 2.6.16.21-0.25
+ kernel or later. The SuSE 10.2 Alpha 5 or later kernel also works.
+ This problem may also be present in certain Fedora FC5 kernels.
+- If you have been using the data encryption feature of 1.39.x, please
+ be aware that certain combinations of encryption and other options
+ with version 1.39.0 through 1.39.26 created Volume data that cannot
+ be restored. We strongly recommend that anyone using encryption
+ carefully review his/her backups and at a minium do a Full backup
+ with 1.39.28 of all encrypted data. Robert Nelson has identified
+ and fixed it as follows:
+ As of 1.39.27:
+ No filters = Works fine
+ Sparse = Works fine
+ Compression = Works fine
+ Encryption = Works fine
+ Sparse + Compression = Works fine
+
+ Sparse + Encryption = Restore broken
+ Sparse + Compression + Encryption = Restore broken
+ Compression + Encryption = Restore broken
+
+ As of 1.39.28:
+ Most combinations work, but some encrypted files are
+ not properly restored.
+
+ As of 1.39.30:
+ All combinations work fine except Sparse+Encryption.
+
+ Bottom line, if you are using data encryption, please test restoring
+ data to be sure it all works correctly.
+- The current Volume format written by 1.39.22 is different from
+ the format written by previous versions. The two formats
+ are not compatible. Thus any DVDs written prior to 1.39.22 will
+ be unreadable by version 1.39.22.
+- If you previously run a Bacula version prior to 1.39.30, the JobMedia
+ data may not be correct for disk Volumes. This can cause incorrect
+ seeking in versions after 1.39.30. If you experience what appears to
+ be data I/O or integrity errors during restores, please add the
+ following directive to your disk DEVICE resource in the Storage
+ daemon conf file:
+
+ Block Positioning = no
+
+ This will turn off all seek requests during restores and avoid
+ this problem.
+- VSS for Windows clients is now enabled by default.
+- Do not unload autochanger when doing "update slots"
+- Implement mount command for autochanger, see manual.
+
+New Features in 2.0.0:
+- Turn on disk seek code for restores.
+- There is a partial but reasonable translation of the Bacula
+ messages for French. To install it, first configure and build
+ Bacula, then as root run:
+
+ cd <bacula-source>/po
+ make install
+
+ If you have your locale set properly you will get the translated
+ messages.
+- Bacula now support Migration jobs that are documented in a new
+ Migration chapter in the manual
+ http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Migration.html
+- Data encryption is now implemented and is documented in
+ a new chapter of the manual at:
+ http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Bacula_Data_Encryption.html
+- Additional support for removable devices. See the
+ Requires Mount, Mount Point, Mount Command, and Unmount
+ Commands in the Storage daemon configuration chapter:
+ http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Storage_Daemon_Configuratio.html
+ Also see the Edit Codes for Mount and Unmount Directives in the
+ same chapter.
+- Switch the Win32 build from using Microsoft C++ to using mingw32
+ cross-compiling. The initial work was done by Howard Thomson,
+ then tweaked by me. Robert Nelson then totally reworked the
+ cross-compiling code so that it not only cross-compiles, but
+ also compiles on Visual Studio, and at the same time, he added
+ all the current Unix features to the FD, such as selection on
+ drives, encryption support, building *all* the tools, ...
+- The Director and Storage daemon have now been ported to Win32.
+ This code is working but should still be tested carefully
+ before putting into production.
+- Bacula restore and bextract can now extract non-portable Win32 data to
+ any client (including Unix/Linux clients). Of course, in doing so,
+ the Microsoft specific permissions and ACLs will be lost. Thanks
+ to Thorsten Engel for this code.
+- The 260 character limitation for Win32 paths name lengths is now
+ eliminated thanks to Thorsten Engel. However, if you are using
+ Volume Shadow Copy, please be careful to specify all the paths
+ in the bacula-fd.conf file using a full path notation including
+ the drive letter.
+- Eric Bollengier wrote new RunScript directives that includes
+ the old RunBefore/AfterJob and ClientRunBefore/AfterJob features
+ plus a *lot* more, allowing you to control just about every aspect
+ of running scripts. See the manual for detailed documentation.
+ http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Configuring_Director.html#5227
+- SunOS ACLs should now work thanks to a patch from David Duchscher.
+- Apply days keyword patch from Alexander.Bergolth at wu-wien.ac.at
+ If this patch is applied, the number of days can be specified with
+ "list nextvol days=xx"
+ or
+ "status dir days=xx"
+ This can be used to preview the next scheduled job (and the
+ next tape to be used) on Fridays if there are no scheduled jobs during
+ the weekend.
+- From Eric Bollengier. One can now using the bconsole wait command do:
+ wait (wait for all jobs to stop)
+ wait jobid=nn
+ wait jobuid=unique id
+ wait job=job-name
+- Volumes can now be set to Enable, Disable, or Archive. If they
+ are not enabled, Volumes will not be mounted.
+ Implement update volume enable=(on|off|true|false|archived|0|1|2)
+- Add Catalog message destination in Messages resource that puts the
+ job report in the Log database table.
+- Writing/reading DVD Volumes is much more stable -- to the point
+ of being useful. Thanks to Richard Mortimer.
+- Add enable/disable job=<job-name>. This command prevents
+ the specified job from being scheduled. Even when disabled,
+ the job can be manually started from the console.
+- The database Id records should be 32/64 bit independent now. 64 bits
+ can be enabled by changing one define and changing the appropriate
+ table variable. Normally, you need 64 bits only for FileId.
+- Relative path specifications (i.e. ../xxx) are now permitted in
+ the restore cd command.
+- When running multiple simultaneous jobs, most jobs that use spooling
+ will now finish faster due to a mutex optimization made by Eric
+ Bollengier.
+- Conf files containing UTF-8 marker at the head of the file as well as
+ conf files containing Window cr/lf and Mac cr line termination characters
+ are now accepted thanks to Robert Nelson.
+- Windows tray status windows are scrollable and resizable.
+- Win32 external script execution is much more flexible -- handles
+ spaces in names better, ...
+- Lots of DVD fixes -- writing DVDs is now reported to work.
+- Fix opening of database in a restricted console to respect
+ any Catalog ACL.
+- Much better automatic handling of multiple database catalogs in
+ the restore command.
+- Permit multiple console/director resources in bconsole.conf.
+ patch from Carsten Paeth calle@calle.in-berlin.de
+- Character substitution in Job/JobDefs WriteBootStrap.
+ from Eric Bollengier.
+- Apply patch supplied in bug #656 to pass priority field
+ in the run dialog to the Director in gnome console.
+- Add support of encrypted data stream to bscan from Eric.
+ display data_len instead of data content (may be binary).
+- Add Enabled=xxx on update slots command.
+- Add host:port to connect failure messages to FD and SD from Dir/
+- Add WhereACL to console ACL list. If nothing is specified, only
+ the default is permitted for restore. Otherwise, *all* allows any
+ path, or you can specify permitted paths. This should allow control
+ over where users can restore files. This is untested.
+- Install man pages with 'make install'.
+- Add Media.Enabled flag to client backups for dotcmds.c
+- Enforce Media.Enabled=1 for a current restore to work
+- Require restore case 3 to have sqlquery permission to work.
+- Add -n option to bconsole to turn off conio -- used in bweb.
+- The bytes field in the terminated jobs part of the status
+ command now reports in KB, MB, ... units.
+- When not descending into a directory, print the File= name that
+ triggered it -- makes why not descending a bit clearer
+- Do not unload autochanger when doing "update slots"
+- Implement mount command for autochanger
+- Fix bug #462 incorrect error message printed when client script called
+ from File= was not found.
+- Fix bug #558 (waiting for feedback) where Bacula needs too much time to
+ do a rewind on Solaris when no tape is in the drive (Solaris does not
+ have the detailed errno found on Linux). Added Solaris specific code.
+ Note, this may apply to other OSes as well.
+- The examples directory has a new bacula_mail_summary.sh file that
+ creates a single email summary of any number of jobs. Submitted by
+ Andrew J. Millar.
+- Add nagios plugin to the examples directory. Submitted by
+ Christian Masopust.
+- Modify most restore error messages to be queued so that they
+ appear at the end of the job rather than mixed with the restore
+ listing where they could be "lost".
+- Apply patch supplied by user (slightly modified) to fix
+ correct detection of holes in block devices and FIFOs.
+ Bug # 506.
+- Added a report.pl program to the examples directory from Jonas Bjorklund.
+- Add two new queries to query.sql provided by Arno. One
+ list volumes known to the Storage device, and the other
+ lists volumes possibly needing replacement (error, ...).
+- Implement new code for changing userid and group at startup. This
+ should get Bacula into the correct groups.
+- Implement support for removable filesystems -- device type directive
+ and mount, unmount directives.
+- Transfer rates are now presented in a more readable format thanks
+ to a user submission.
+- SD is now aware of what volumes are mounted. More information is printed
+ in the Status report. You must take much more care now to unmount
+ devices prior to removing tapes that Bacula has open or prior to
+ changing a magazine. Don't forget to do a mount afterwards or the
+ device will be blocked.
+- The Pool Maximum Volumes directive is now respected in all places.
+- A Storage device can now be specified in a Pool resource. It will override
+ all other Storage specifications.
+- Most but not all directives accept true/false in place of yes/no.
+- A patch from Karl Hakimian that reads JobIds, FileIndexes
+ from a database table for restore.
+- There are a number of new tables. Some such as the Location table are
+ designed for user use in doing Volume Management software.
+- Maximum Changer Wait, Maximum Open Wait, Maximum Rewind Wait to
+ accept time qualifiers.
+- Implement jobuid to replace old usage of job in keywords as
+ suggested by Eric Bollengier.
+- Implement write variables for Python to set Priority (anytime), and
+ Job Level, only during JobInit event.
+- Use the keyword ujobid to mean the unique job id; job or jobname
+ to mean the Job name given on the Name directive, and jobid to
+ be the numeric (non-unique) job id.
+- Allow the SD to use multiple drives during a backup/restore (only
+ one at a time).
+- Integrate addition of line count limitation to bsmtp -l from
+ Sebastian Stark <stark at tuebingen.mpg.de>
+- Split the bacula start/start script into four files:
+ bacula -- starts and stops calling other scripts
+ bacula-ctl-dir -- starts/stops the director
+ bacula-ctl-fd -- starts/stops the File daemon
+ bacula-ctl-sd -- starts/stops the Storage daemon
+- Remove automatic case folding on Windows FDs. You must
+ explicitly use the 'Ignore Case = yes' option.
+- Implement wild program in tools directory for testing
+ wild-cards. Almost identical to the regex program.
+- Use the new bregex.c to implement Regex expressions on Win32.
+- Apply patch from Christopher Hull
+ - Allow multiple connections to database with different
+ parameters.
+ - Invalidate the scheduler when doing a reload. Fixes seg
+ fault, but still 60 second window.
+ - Additional info in Reschedule message.
+ - Use set_jcr_job_status() everywhere to prevent loss of
+ cancel, error.
+ - Display peer IP in FD if error from connecting DIR.
+ - Don't increment file count for DIRBEGIN.
+ - Replace illegal characters in Win32 filename by _.
+ - Add SE_CREATE_PERMANENT_NAME privilege in Win32.
+ - Hash hard link filenames rather than linked list (performance).
+ - Fix for security failure in chdir on Win32.
+ - Add CreateDirectoryA/W win32 API entry points.
+- programs to duplicate Bacula's base64 algorithm using standard
+ routines. This fixes bugs #296, and 565. Patch submitted by
+ author of bug #565.
+- Fixes to reloading the Dir conf file from Eric Bollengier and Christopher
+ Hull.
+- Modify LICENSE to correct some problems pointed out by Debian.
+- Apply a patch submitted by cesarb in bug #606 to implement O_NOATIME support.
+ O_NOATIME is a open() flag which makes it possible to read a file without
+ updating the inode atime (and also without the inode ctime update which
+ happens if you try to set the atime back to its previous value). It also
+ prevents a race condition when two programs are reading the same file, but
+ only one does not want to change the atime. It's most useful for backup
+ programs and file integrity checkers (and bacula can fit on both
+ categories).
+ You enable it in the Bacula FileSet Options resource by setting:
+ noatime = yes
+ The effect of this option is similar to the keepatime option except
+ it is more efficient and avoids modifying ctime.
+- Implement a pile of new man pages contributed by Jose Tallon.
+- Modify the database format for handling Migration jobs:
+ Add PriorJobId, RealEndTime to Job table
+ Delete MAC table
+ Remove Stripe from JobMedia record (not used, wasting space)
+ Add ScratchPoolId, RecyclePoolId, Enabled to Media record
+ Add Cost to Location table.
+ Enabled to Media table and Location table.
+- Security: harden authentication failure in FD by single threading errors
+ and forcing a 6 second wait.
+- If using GCC (actually g++) add the following compiler flags
+ -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti
+- Turn on new bsnprintf() code. The reason for this code is to
+ eliminate the security problems associated with using the
+ system libraries print routines.
+- Implement job report that indicates where Storage and Pool
+ came from -- with overrides and Pool storage and NextPool,
+ it is all very complicated.
+- Add more detail (Storage, Device) to list of volumes printed
+ for restore.
+- Add new VOLMGMT message class. No messages are yet sent with this
+ class.
+- Improved Bacula rescue procedures -- see the Disaster Recovery
+ chapter of the manual
+- Add spooling/despooling info in status output of SD.
+- Add Comment field to llist of a volume.
+- Allow true/false in many but not all yes/no directives.
+- The Bacula source code is now copyrighted by the Free Software
+ Foundation Europe. The Developer's Guide documents the new procedures,
+ and the LICENSE file has been updated.
+- Apply Jaime Ventura's patch that implements the Messages resource
+ Mail On Success directive.
+- The Client returns its Version string, which is printed in the Job
+ report.
+- The Client returns whether or not VSS and Encryption are used, which
+ are printed in the Job report.
+
+Additional Features Added for Win32:
+- Added DriveType directive to the Director's Include Option FileSet
+ resource. Allowed values are: fixed, removable, cdrom, and remote. There
+ is only an implementation for Windows because it is the only platform that
+ has the concept of drives.
+
+- Adds EnhancedWild directive to the Director's Include Option FileSet
+ resource. Allowed values are: yes and no.
+
+ When EnhancedWild is enabled then the processing of the
+ Wild, WildDir and WildFile is changed in the following ways.
+
+ Patterns conform to Posix
+ \ is not a special character in character classification []
+ To match a - it must be the first or last character
+ To match a ] it must be the first character
+
+ fnmatch option FNM_FILE_NAME is specified * doesn't match a /
+ so it won't match multiple directory levels in a path
+
+- Relative WildFile patterns (ones without a leading /) match
+ against the filename portion. This in combination with the
+ FNM_FILE_NAME fnmatch() flag makes directives such as WildFile =
+ abc*.def work as expected.
+
+- Adds support for the shell's feature of brace expansion.
+
+ Here is an example where braces allow 24 lines to be expressed in 5.
+
+ # Exclude directories full of lots and lots of useless little files
+ WildDir = "[A-Z]:/{Documents and Settings,{WINNT,Windows}/Profiles}/*/Cookies"
+ WildDir = "[A-Z]:/{Documents and Settings,{WINNT,Windows}/Profiles}/*/Recent"
+ WildDir = "[A-Z]:/{Documents and Settings,{WINNT,Windows}/Profiles}/*/{Local Settings,LOCALS~1}/History"
+ WildDir = "[A-Z]:/{Documents and Settings,{WINNT,Windows}/Profiles}/*/{Local Settings,LOCALS~1}/Temp"
+ WildDir = "[A-Z]:/{Documents and Settings,{WINNT,Windows}/Profiles}/*/{Local Settings,LOCALS~1}/Temporary Internet Files"

+ Bug Reporting
+ </td>
+</tr>
+<tr>
+ <td class="content">
+Before reporting a bug, please be sure it is a bug and
+not a request for support or a feature request (see the menu
+bar at the left of this page).
+
+<p>Bugs are resolved by volunteer Bacula developers (and the
+community at large). If you have a high priority for your bug or
+need professional help, please see the
+ <a href="http://www.bacula.org/es/?page=professional">
+Professional Services</a> page of this website.
+
+<p>Bacula now has a Mantis bug reporting system
+implemented by Dan Langille and hosted on his computer. It is web based,
+easy to use, and we recommend you give it a try. However, before
+visiting our bugs database, please carefully read the following:
+
+
+To view the bug reports, you can login as user <b>anonymous</b> and
+password <b>anonymous</b>. The advantage of actually being subscribed
+is that you will be notified by email of any serious bugs and their
+resolution.
+
+To submit bug reports, you must create an account. You must also use a
+browser running a US ASCII code page or UTF-8. Some users running Win32
+IE with Windows Eastern European code pages have experienced problems
+interfacing with the system.
+
+<p>
+Most Bacula problems are questions of support, so if you are not
+sure if a problem you are having is a bug, see the support page
+on this site for links to the email lists. However, once you have
+determined that a problem is a bug, you must either submit a bug
+report to the bugs database or send an email to the bacula-devel
+list, otherwise it is possible that the developers will never know
+about your bug and thus it will not get fixed.
+
+You should expect two things to be slightly different in our Bugs
+handling than many other Open Source projects. First, we unfortunately
+cannot give support or handle feature requests via the bugs database,
+and second, we close bugs very quickly to avoid being overwhelmed.
+Please don't take this personally. If you want to add a note to the bug
+report after it is closed, you can do so by reopening the bug, adding a
+bug note, then closing the bug report again, or for really simple
+matters, you can send an email to the bacula-devel email list. If a
+developer closes a bug report and after everything considered, you are
+convinced there really *is* a bug and you have new information, you can
+always reopen the bug report.
+
+<h3>Information Needed in a Bug Report</h3>
+For us to respond to a bug report, we normally need the following
+as the minimum information, which you should enter into the appropriate
+fields of the bug reporting system:
+<ul>
+<li>Your operating system</li>
+<li>The version of Bacula you are using</li>
+<li>A <a href="http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html">clear and concise</a> description of the problem</li>
+<li>If you say "it crashes", "it doesn't work" or something
+ similar, you should include some output from Bacula that shows this.</li>
+</ul>
+If you are having tape problems, please include:
+<ul>
+ <li>The kind of tape drive you have </li>
+ <li>Have you run the <b>btape</b> "test" command?</li>
+
+</ul>
+The first two of these items can be fulfilled by sending us a copy of
+your <b>config.out</b> file, which is in the main <b>Bacula</b> source
+directory after you have done your <b>./configure</b>.
+
+<p>In addition, we will sometimes need a copy of your Bacula
+configuration files (especially bacula-dir.conf). If you think it is a
+configuration problem, please don't hesitate to send them if
+necessary.</td>

+
+<h2>Funded Development</h2>
+Now that <a href="http://www.baculasystems.com">Bacula Systems SA</a> exists,
+it is possible to sponsor funded development projects. This is a contractual
+relationship where the Bacula Systems developers agree to implement
+a specific project within a specific time frame. All code that is developed
+by Bacula Systems developers, goes into the Bacula community source
+repository, so is available for everyone to use.
+
+<h2>Community Development</h2>
+If you are not interested in sponsoring a development project, you can
+nevertheless submit a feature request to have a favorite feature
+implemented (and even submit your own patch for it).
+
+<p>In the past, users informally submitted feature requests by email, and
+we collected them, then once a version was released, we would publish the
+list for users to vote on.
+<p>
+Now that Bacula has become a bigger project, this process has been
+formalized a bit more. The main change is for users
+to carefully think about their feature, and submit it on a feature
+request form. A mostly empty form is shown below along with an
+example of an actual filled in form. A text copy of the form can
+be found in the <b>projects</b> file in the main source directory
+of the Bacula release. That file also contains a list of all the
+currently approved projects and their status.
+<p>
+The best time to submit a Feature Request is just after a release when
+we officially request feature requests for the next version. The worst
+time to submit a feature request is just prior to a new release (we are
+very busy at that time). To actually submit the Feature request,
+fill out the form, and submit it to both the bacula-users and
+the bacula-devel email lists. It will then be openly discussed.
+<p>
+Once the Feature Request has beeen adequately discussed, Bacula Project
+Manager (Kern) will either reject it, approve it, or possibly request some
+modifications. If you plan to implement the feature or donate
+funds to have it implemented, this is important to note,
+otherwise, the feature, even if approved, may wait a long time
+for someone to implement it.
+<p>
+Once the Feature request is approved, we will add it to the projects
+file, which contains a list of all open Feature Requests. The projects
+file is updated from time to time
+<p>
+The current (though possibly somewhat old) list of projects can also
+be found on the Web site by clicking on the Projects menu item to the
+left of this window.
+
+
+<h3>Feature Request Form</h3>
+<pre>
+Item n: One line summary ...
+ Origin: Name and email of originator.
+ Date: Date submitted (e.g. 28 October 2005)
+ Status:
+
+ What: More detailed explanation ...
+
+ Why: Why it is important ...
+
+ Notes: Additional notes or features ...
+
+</pre>
+
+<h3>An Example Feature Request</h3>
+<pre>
+Item 1: Implement a Migration job type that will move the job
+ data from one device to another.
+ Date: 28 October 2005
+ Origin: Sponsored by Riege Sofware International GmbH. Contact:
+ Daniel Holtkamp <holtkamp at riege dot com>
+ Status: Partially coded in 1.37 -- much more to do. Assigned to
+ Kern.
+
+ What: The ability to copy, move, or archive data that is on a
+ device to another device is very important.
+
+ Why: An ISP might want to backup to disk, but after 30 days
+ migrate the data to tape backup and delete it from
+ disk. Bacula should be able to handle this
+ automatically. It needs to know what was put where,
+ and when, and what to migrate -- it is a bit like
+ retention periods. Doing so would allow space to be
+ freed up for current backups while maintaining older
+ data on tape drives.
+
+ Notes: Migration could be triggered by:
+ Number of Jobs
+ Number of Volumes
+ Age of Jobs
+ Highwater size (keep total size)
+ Lowwater mark
+
+</pre>

+<a href="http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=50727">Bacula Mailing Lists at SourceForge</a>.
+<p>For email archives see the bottom of this page.</p>
+
+Source Forge has rather strict email requirements in order to

+These are mesures that they have implemented, and over which we have no
+control.
+<p>
+If you are having problems subscribing or sending email to a Bacula list,
+please, read the following: <a href="http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=6695&group_id=1">
+SourceForge.net: Email Problems: Spam, Bounces, Unreceived Messages</a>, then
+if you are still having problems send a support request to Source Forge.
+Source Forge requires the person affected submit his/her own support request;
+the Bacula project is not permitted to do so on your behalf.
+<p>
+One item they do not mention in the above referenced document is grey listing.
+If you are using grey listing, you are likely to have problems with the Source
+Forge email lists. The solution is to whitelist their sending IPs. You might
+want to whitelist their whole zone (66.35.250.0/24) as I (Kern) have done, but
+if you are more conservative, I found only two of their IPs were sending email
+(66.35.250.225 and 66.35.250.206). If you grey list individual Source Forge
+IP addresses, please be sure to check your logs to verify the addresses they

+ Contributing to the Bacula Project

+ <td class="content">
+ Although one talks about Free Software, in fact, Open Software such
+ as Bacula was not developed without some cost. The software
+ may be free for the user, but it wasn't free for the developer
+ or developers, either in terms of time or in terms of financial
+ cost.
+
+ For example, since beginning work on the Bacula project in
+ January 2000 until now (August 2006), I (Kern) have spent
+ approximately $8000 per year for computers, tape drives,
+ communications expenses, electricity, software licenses, and
+ other expenses. I am not complaining and am pleased to have
+ been able to afford these expenditures. In addition, have no
+ desire to have my past expenses reimbursed.
+
+ Bacula is now a fairly mature product, and to ensure its long
+ term survival, I believe it is time that Bacula begins to
+ stand on its own, both financially and for the development,
+ which is why we began accepting donations or project support
+ in November 2005.
+ <p>
+ There are ways you can contribute to the Bacula
+ project, some of which are: ideas, user support,
+ documentation review, translation, programming and
+ contributing code, testing the new releases, hosting
+ services, testing machines, donating needed equipment, and
+ financial support.
+
+ Previously all but the last one (financial support) were possible.
+ It is now possible for you to contribute financial aid
+ the Bacula project. All funds collected will be used to help
+ further the Bacula project by covering out of pocket expenses
+ incurred by the project (no salaries). Examples are, administrative
+ fees, hardware, software licenses (yes Micro$oft), and possibly a
+ portion of travel/conference expenses.
+
+ <p>
+ Contributions may not be US tax deductible as Bacula is
+ based in Switzerland.
+ <p>
+ If you are a government or for-profit corporation and cannot
+ make "donations", please consider paying a (non-obligatory)
+ binary license fee for any Bacula built binaries that you download.
+ By making these pre-built, pre-tested binaries available, we are
+ providing users who download them with an extra service, which merits
+ careful consideration for making a contribution or paying a
+ "license fee".
+ <p>
+ If you are a corporation and cannot make donations and don't want
+ to pay a binary license fee, you can request an invoice for
+ Bacula Project development. Please see below for how to do this.
+
+ <p>
+ To make a contribution, please click on the donate button at
+ the top of the screen, and your transaction will be secured
+ and confirmed directly by PayPal. If you contribute, or have
+ any questions, please send me an email directly: kern at
+ sibbald dot com.
+
+ <p>
+ If you need an invoice, I can send you one, but in order to limit my
+ administrative work, I kindly request you to make a donation of at least
+ $200 before requesting an invoice. To obtain one, simply email me the exact
+ name to appear on the invoice as well as the mailing address, the amount
+ you want to contribute, and the project you are supporting (or simply
+ Bacula development).
+
+ <p>
+ The Bacula web site has a "Donations Received" page where
+ you can have your company name, your name, and the amount (or any
+ combination of those) listed. You must explicitly request to be listed.
+ Do so by sending an email to: kern at sibbald dot com after you have
+ made the payment.
+
+ <p>Although there is one link to our ISP, who we thank for providing the
+ hosting service, we do not provide any links to other sites other than
+ on the Professional page.

+Item 1: Accurate restoration of renamed/deleted files
+ Date: 28 November 2005
+ Origin: Martin Simmons (martin at lispworks dot com)
+ Status: Robert Nelson will implement this
+
+ What: When restoring a fileset for a specified date (including "most
+ recent"), Bacula should give you exactly the files and directories
+ that existed at the time of the last backup prior to that date.
+
+ Currently this only works if the last backup was a Full backup.
+ When the last backup was Incremental/Differential, files and
+ directories that have been renamed or deleted since the last Full
+ backup are not currently restored correctly. Ditto for files with
+ extra/fewer hard links than at the time of the last Full backup.
+
+ Why: Incremental/Differential would be much more useful if this worked.
+
+ Notes: Merging of multiple backups into a single one seems to
+ rely on this working, otherwise the merged backups will not be
+ truly equivalent to a Full backup.
+
+ Kern: notes shortened. This can be done without the need for
+ inodes. It is essentially the same as the current Verify job,
+ but one additional database record must be written, which does
+ not need any database change.
+
+ Kern: see if we can correct restoration of directories if
+ replace=ifnewer is set. Currently, if the directory does not
+ exist, a "dummy" directory is created, then when all the files
+ are updated, the dummy directory is newer so the real values
+ are not updated.
+
+Item 2: Implement a Bacula GUI/management tool.
+ Origin: Kern
+ Date: 28 October 2005
+ Status: In progress
+
+ What: Implement a Bacula console, and management tools
+ probably using Qt3 and C++.
+
+ Why: Don't we already have a wxWidgets GUI? Yes, but
+ it is written in C++ and changes to the user interface
+ must be hand tailored using C++ code. By developing
+ the user interface using Qt designer, the interface
+ can be very easily updated and most of the new Python
+ code will be automatically created. The user interface
+ changes become very simple, and only the new features
+ must be implement. In addition, the code will be in
+ Python, which will give many more users easy (or easier)
+ access to making additions or modifications.
+
+ Notes: There is a partial Python-GTK implementation
+ Lucas Di Pentima <lucas at lunix dot com dot ar> but
+ it is no longer being developed.

+Item 3: Allow FD to initiate a backup
+ Origin: Frank Volf (frank at deze dot org)
+ Date: 17 November 2005
+ Status:
+
+ What: Provide some means, possibly by a restricted console that
+ allows a FD to initiate a backup, and that uses the connection
+ established by the FD to the Director for the backup so that
+ a Director that is firewalled can do the backup.
+
+ Why: Makes backup of laptops much easier.
+
+
+Item 4: Merge multiple backups (Synthetic Backup or Consolidation).
+ Origin: Marc Cousin and Eric Bollengier
+ Date: 15 November 2005
+ Status: Waiting implementation. Depends on first implementing
+ project Item 2 (Migration) which is now done.
+
+ What: A merged backup is a backup made without connecting to the Client.
+ It would be a Merge of existing backups into a single backup.
+ In effect, it is like a restore but to the backup medium.
+
+ For instance, say that last Sunday we made a full backup. Then
+ all week long, we created incremental backups, in order to do
+ them fast. Now comes Sunday again, and we need another full.
+ The merged backup makes it possible to do instead an incremental
+ backup (during the night for instance), and then create a merged
+ backup during the day, by using the full and incrementals from
+ the week. The merged backup will be exactly like a full made
+ Sunday night on the tape, but the production interruption on the
+ Client will be minimal, as the Client will only have to send
+ incrementals.
+
+ In fact, if it's done correctly, you could merge all the
+ Incrementals into single Incremental, or all the Incrementals
+ and the last Differential into a new Differential, or the Full,
+ last differential and all the Incrementals into a new Full
+ backup. And there is no need to involve the Client.
+
+ Why: The benefit is that :
+ - the Client just does an incremental ;
+ - the merged backup on tape is just as a single full backup,
+ and can be restored very fast.
+
+ This is also a way of reducing the backup data since the old
+ data can then be pruned (or not) from the catalog, possibly
+ allowing older volumes to be recycled
+
+Item 5: Deletion of Disk-Based Bacula Volumes
+ Date: Nov 25, 2005
+ Origin: Ross Boylan <RossBoylan at stanfordalumni dot org> (edited
+ by Kern)
+ Status:
+
+ What: Provide a way for Bacula to automatically remove Volumes
+ from the filesystem, or optionally to truncate them.
+ Obviously, the Volume must be pruned prior removal.
+
+ Why: This would allow users more control over their Volumes and
+ prevent disk based volumes from consuming too much space.
+
+ Notes: The following two directives might do the trick:
+
+ Volume Data Retention = <time period>
+ Remove Volume After = <time period>
+
+ The migration project should also remove a Volume that is
+ migrated. This might also work for tape Volumes.
+
+Item 6: Implement Base jobs.
+ Date: 28 October 2005
+ Origin: Kern
+ Status:
+
+ What: A base job is sort of like a Full save except that you
+ will want the FileSet to contain only files that are
+ unlikely to change in the future (i.e. a snapshot of
+ most of your system after installing it). After the
+ base job has been run, when you are doing a Full save,
+ you specify one or more Base jobs to be used. All
+ files that have been backed up in the Base job/jobs but
+ not modified will then be excluded from the backup.
+ During a restore, the Base jobs will be automatically
+ pulled in where necessary.
+
+ Why: This is something none of the competition does, as far as
+ we know (except perhaps BackupPC, which is a Perl program that
+ saves to disk only). It is big win for the user, it
+ makes Bacula stand out as offering a unique
+ optimization that immediately saves time and money.
+ Basically, imagine that you have 100 nearly identical
+ Windows or Linux machine containing the OS and user
+ files. Now for the OS part, a Base job will be backed
+ up once, and rather than making 100 copies of the OS,
+ there will be only one. If one or more of the systems
+ have some files updated, no problem, they will be
+ automatically restored.
+
+ Notes: Huge savings in tape usage even for a single machine.
+ Will require more resources because the DIR must send
+ FD a list of files/attribs, and the FD must search the
+ list and compare it for each file to be saved.
+
+Item 7: Implement creation and maintenance of copy pools
+ Date: 27 November 2005
+ Origin: David Boyes (dboyes at sinenomine dot net)
+ Status:
+
+ What: I would like Bacula to have the capability to write copies
+ of backed-up data on multiple physical volumes selected
+ from different pools without transferring the data
+ multiple times, and to accept any of the copy volumes
+ as valid for restore.
+
+ Why: In many cases, businesses are required to keep offsite
+ copies of backup volumes, or just wish for simple
+ protection against a human operator dropping a storage
+ volume and damaging it. The ability to generate multiple
+ volumes in the course of a single backup job allows
+ customers to simple check out one copy and send it
+ offsite, marking it as out of changer or otherwise
+ unavailable. Currently, the library and magazine
+ management capability in Bacula does not make this process
+ simple.
+
+ Restores would use the copy of the data on the first
+ available volume, in order of copy pool chain definition.
+
+ This is also a major scalability issue -- as the number of
+ clients increases beyond several thousand, and the volume
+ of data increases, transferring the data multiple times to
+ produce additional copies of the backups will become
+ physically impossible due to transfer speed
+ issues. Generating multiple copies at server side will
+ become the only practical option.
+
+ How: I suspect that this will require adding a multiplexing
+ SD that appears to be a SD to a specific FD, but 1-n FDs
+ to the specific back end SDs managing the primary and copy
+ pools. Storage pools will also need to acquire parameters
+ to define the pools to be used for copies.
+
+ Notes: I would commit some of my developers' time if we can agree
+ on the design and behavior.
+
+Item 8: Directive/mode to backup only file changes, not entire file
+ Date: 11 November 2005
+ Origin: Joshua Kugler <joshua dot kugler at uaf dot edu>
+ Marek Bajon <mbajon at bimsplus dot com dot pl>
+ Status:
+
+ What: Currently when a file changes, the entire file will be backed up in
+ the next incremental or full backup. To save space on the tapes
+ it would be nice to have a mode whereby only the changes to the
+ file would be backed up when it is changed.
+
+ Why: This would save lots of space when backing up large files such as
+ logs, mbox files, Outlook PST files and the like.
+
+ Notes: This would require the usage of disk-based volumes as comparing
+ files would not be feasible using a tape drive.
+
+Item 9: Implement a server-side compression feature
+ Date: 18 December 2006
+ Origin: Vadim A. Umanski , e-mail umanski@ext.ru
+ Status:
+ What: The ability to compress backup data on server receiving data
+ instead of doing that on client sending data.
+ Why: The need is practical. I've got some machines that can send
+ data to the network 4 or 5 times faster than compressing
+ them (I've measured that). They're using fast enough SCSI/FC
+ disk subsystems but rather slow CPUs (ex. UltraSPARC II).
+ And the backup server has got a quite fast CPUs (ex. Dual P4
+ Xeons) and quite a low load. When you have 20, 50 or 100 GB
+ of raw data - running a job 4 to 5 times faster - that
+ really matters. On the other hand, the data can be
+ compressed 50% or better - so losing twice more space for
+ disk backup is not good at all. And the network is all mine
+ (I have a dedicated management/provisioning network) and I
+ can get as high bandwidth as I need - 100Mbps, 1000Mbps...
+ That's why the server-side compression feature is needed!

+
+Item 10: Improve Bacula's tape and drive usage and cleaning management.
+ Date: 8 November 2005, November 11, 2005
+ Origin: Adam Thornton <athornton at sinenomine dot net>,
+ Arno Lehmann <al at its-lehmann dot de>
+ Status:
+
+ What: Make Bacula manage tape life cycle information, tape reuse
+ times and drive cleaning cycles.
+
+ Why: All three parts of this project are important when operating
+ backups.
+ We need to know which tapes need replacement, and we need to
+ make sure the drives are cleaned when necessary. While many
+ tape libraries and even autoloaders can handle all this
+ automatically, support by Bacula can be helpful for smaller
+ (older) libraries and single drives. Limiting the number of
+ times a tape is used might prevent tape errors when using
+ tapes until the drives can't read it any more. Also, checking
+ drive status during operation can prevent some failures (as I
+ [Arno] had to learn the hard way...)
+
+ Notes: First, Bacula could (and even does, to some limited extent)
+ record tape and drive usage. For tapes, the number of mounts,
+ the amount of data, and the time the tape has actually been
+ running could be recorded. Data fields for Read and Write
+ time and Number of mounts already exist in the catalog (I'm
+ not sure if VolBytes is the sum of all bytes ever written to
+ that volume by Bacula). This information can be important
+ when determining which media to replace. The ability to mark
+ Volumes as "used up" after a given number of write cycles
+ should also be implemented so that a tape is never actually
+ worn out. For the tape drives known to Bacula, similar
+ information is interesting to determine the device status and
+ expected life time: Time it's been Reading and Writing, number
+ of tape Loads / Unloads / Errors. This information is not yet
+ recorded as far as I [Arno] know. A new volume status would
+ be necessary for the new state, like "Used up" or "Worn out".
+ Volumes with this state could be used for restores, but not
+ for writing. These volumes should be migrated first (assuming
+ migration is implemented) and, once they are no longer needed,
+ could be moved to a Trash pool.
+
+ The next step would be to implement a drive cleaning setup.
+ Bacula already has knowledge about cleaning tapes. Once it
+ has some information about cleaning cycles (measured in drive
+ run time, number of tapes used, or calender days, for example)
+ it can automatically execute tape cleaning (with an
+ autochanger, obviously) or ask for operator assistance loading
+ a cleaning tape.
+
+ The final step would be to implement TAPEALERT checks not only
+ when changing tapes and only sending the information to the
+ administrator, but rather checking after each tape error,
+ checking on a regular basis (for example after each tape
+ file), and also before unloading and after loading a new tape.
+ Then, depending on the drives TAPEALERT state and the known
+ drive cleaning state Bacula could automatically schedule later
+ cleaning, clean immediately, or inform the operator.
+
+ Implementing this would perhaps require another catalog change
+ and perhaps major changes in SD code and the DIR-SD protocol,
+ so I'd only consider this worth implementing if it would
+ actually be used or even needed by many people.
+
+ Implementation of these projects could happen in three distinct
+ sub-projects: Measuring Tape and Drive usage, retiring
+ volumes, and handling drive cleaning and TAPEALERTs.

+Item 11: Allow skipping execution of Jobs
+ Date: 29 November 2005
+ Origin: Florian Schnabel <florian.schnabel at docufy dot de>
+ Status:
+
+ What: An easy option to skip a certain job on a certain date.
+ Why: You could then easily skip tape backups on holidays. Especially
+ if you got no autochanger and can only fit one backup on a tape
+ that would be really handy, other jobs could proceed normally
+ and you won't get errors that way.
+
+Item 12: Add a scheduling syntax that permits weekly rotations
+ Date: 15 December 2006
+ Origin: Gregory Brauer (greg at wildbrain dot com)
+ Status:
+
+ What: Currently, Bacula only understands how to deal with weeks of the
+ month or weeks of the year in schedules. This makes it impossible
+ to do a true weekly rotation of tapes. There will always be a
+ discontinuity that will require disruptive manual intervention at
+ least monthly or yearly because week boundaries never align with
+ month or year boundaries.
+
+ A solution would be to add a new syntax that defines (at least)
+ a start timestamp, and repetition period.
+
+ Why: Rotated backups done at weekly intervals are useful, and Bacula
+ cannot currently do them without extensive hacking.
+
+ Notes: Here is an example syntax showing a 3-week rotation where full
+ Backups would be performed every week on Saturday, and an
+ incremental would be performed every week on Tuesday. Each
+ set of tapes could be removed from the loader for the following
+ two cycles before coming back and being reused on the third
+ week. Since the execution times are determined by intervals
+ from a given point in time, there will never be any issues with
+ having to adjust to any sort of arbitrary time boundary. In
+ the example provided, I even define the starting schedule
+ as crossing both a year and a month boundary, but the run times
+ would be based on the "Repeat" value and would therefore happen
+ weekly as desired.
+
+
+ Schedule {
+ Name = "Week 1 Rotation"
+ #Saturday. Would run Dec 30, Jan 20, Feb 10, etc.
+ Run {
+ Options {
+ Type = Full
+ Start = 2006-12-30 01:00

+Item 13: Archival (removal) of User Files to Tape
+ Date: Nov. 24/2005
+ Origin: Ray Pengelly [ray at biomed dot queensu dot ca
+ Status:
+
+ What: The ability to archive data to storage based on certain parameters
+ such as age, size, or location. Once the data has been written to
+ storage and logged it is then pruned from the originating
+ filesystem. Note! We are talking about user's files and not
+ Bacula Volumes.
+
+ Why: This would allow fully automatic storage management which becomes
+ useful for large datastores. It would also allow for auto-staging
+ from one media type to another.
+
+ Example 1) Medical imaging needs to store large amounts of data.
+ They decide to keep data on their servers for 6 months and then put
+ it away for long term storage. The server then finds all files
+ older than 6 months writes them to tape. The files are then removed
+ from the server.
+
+ Example 2) All data that hasn't been accessed in 2 months could be
+ moved from high-cost, fibre-channel disk storage to a low-cost
+ large-capacity SATA disk storage pool which doesn't have as quick of
+ access time. Then after another 6 months (or possibly as one
+ storage pool gets full) data is migrated to Tape.

+Item 14: Cause daemons to use a specific IP address to source communications
+ Origin: Bill Moran <wmoran@collaborativefusion.com>
+ Date: 18 Dec 2006
+ Status:
+ What: Cause Bacula daemons (dir, fd, sd) to always use the ip address
+ specified in the [DIR|DF|SD]Addr directive as the source IP
+ for initiating communication.
+ Why: On complex networks, as well as extremely secure networks, it's
+ not unusual to have multiple possible routes through the network.
+ Often, each of these routes is secured by different policies
+ (effectively, firewalls allow or deny different traffic depending
+ on the source address)
+ Unfortunately, it can sometimes be difficult or impossible to
+ represent this in a system routing table, as the result is
+ excessive subnetting that quickly exhausts available IP space.
+ The best available workaround is to provide multiple IPs to
+ a single machine that are all on the same subnet. In order
+ for this to work properly, applications must support the ability
+ to bind outgoing connections to a specified address, otherwise
+ the operating system will always choose the first IP that
+ matches the required route.
+ Notes: Many other programs support this. For example, the following
+ can be configured in BIND:
+ query-source address 10.0.0.1;
+ transfer-source 10.0.0.2;
+ Which means queries from this server will always come from
+ 10.0.0.1 and zone transfers will always originate from
+ 10.0.0.2.

+Item 15: Multiple threads in file daemon for the same job
+ Date: 27 November 2005
+ Origin: Ove Risberg (Ove.Risberg at octocode dot com)
+ Status:
+
+ What: I want the file daemon to start multiple threads for a backup
+ job so the fastest possible backup can be made.
+
+ The file daemon could parse the FileSet information and start
+ one thread for each File entry located on a separate
+ filesystem.
+
+ A confiuration option in the job section should be used to
+ enable or disable this feature. The confgutration option could
+ specify the maximum number of threads in the file daemon.
+
+ If the theads could spool the data to separate spool files
+ the restore process will not be much slower.
+
+ Why: Multiple concurrent backups of a large fileserver with many
+ disks and controllers will be much faster.
+
+Item 16: Add Plug-ins to the FileSet Include statements.
+ Date: 28 October 2005
+ Origin:
+ Status: Partially coded in 1.37 -- much more to do.
+
+ What: Allow users to specify wild-card and/or regular
+ expressions to be matched in both the Include and
+ Exclude directives in a FileSet. At the same time,
+ allow users to define plug-ins to be called (based on
+ regular expression/wild-card matching).
+
+ Why: This would give the users the ultimate ability to control
+ how files are backed up/restored. A user could write a
+ plug-in knows how to backup his Oracle database without
+ stopping/starting it, for example.
+
+Item 17: Restore only file attributes (permissions, ACL, owner, group...)
+ Origin: Eric Bollengier
+ Date: 30/12/2006
+ Status:

+ What: The goal of this project is to be able to restore only rights
+ and attributes of files without crushing them.
+
+ Why: Who have never had to repair a chmod -R 777, or a wild update
+ of recursive right under Windows? At this time, you must have
+ enough space to restore data, dump attributes (easy with acl,
+ more complex with unix/windows rights) and apply them to your
+ broken tree. With this options, it will be very easy to compare
+ right or ACL over the time.
+
+ Notes: If the file is here, we skip restore and we change rights.

+
+Item 18: Quick release of FD-SD connection after backup.
+ Origin: Frank Volf (frank at deze dot org)
+ Date: 17 November 2005
+ Status: Done -- implemented by Kern -- in CVS 26Jan07
+
+ What: In the Bacula implementation a backup is finished after all data
+ and attributes are successfully written to storage. When using a
+ tape backup it is very annoying that a backup can take a day,
+ simply because the current tape (or whatever) is full and the
+ administrator has not put a new one in. During that time the
+ system cannot be taken off-line, because there is still an open
+ session between the storage daemon and the file daemon on the
+ client.
+
+ Although this is a very good strategy for making "safe backups"
+ This can be annoying for e.g. laptops, that must remain
+ connected until the backup is completed.
+
+ Using a new feature called "migration" it will be possible to
+ spool first to harddisk (using a special 'spool' migration
+ scheme) and then migrate the backup to tape.
+
+ There is still the problem of getting the attributes committed.
+ If it takes a very long time to do, with the current code, the
+ job has not terminated, and the File daemon is not freed up. The
+ Storage daemon should release the File daemon as soon as all the
+ file data and all the attributes have been sent to it (the SD).
+ Currently the SD waits until everything is on tape and all the
+ attributes are transmitted to the Director before signaling
+ completion to the FD. I don't think I would have any problem
+ changing this. The reason is that even if the FD reports back to
+ the Dir that all is OK, the job will not terminate until the SD
+ has done the same thing -- so in a way keeping the SD-FD link
+ open to the very end is not really very productive ...
+
+ Why: Makes backup of laptops much faster.

+Date: 23 November 2006
+Origin: Landon Fuller <landonf@threerings.net>
+Status: Planning. Assigned to landonf.
+
+ What: Implement support for the following:
+ - Stacking arbitrary stream filters (eg, encryption, compression,
+ sparse data handling))
+ - Attaching file sinks to terminate stream filters (ie, write out
+ the resultant data to a file)
+ - Refactor the restoration state machine accordingly
+
+ Why: The existing stream implementation suffers from the following:
+ - All state (compression, encryption, stream restoration), is
+ global across the entire restore process, for all streams. There are
+ multiple entry and exit points in the restoration state machine, and
+ thus multiple places where state must be allocated, deallocated,
+ initialized, or reinitialized. This results in exceptional complexity
+ for the author of a stream filter.
+ - The developer must enumerate all possible combinations of filters
+ and stream types (ie, win32 data with encryption, without encryption,
+ with encryption AND compression, etc).
+
+ Notes: This feature request only covers implementing the stream filters/
+ sinks, and refactoring the file daemon's restoration implementation
+ accordingly. If I have extra time, I will also rewrite the backup
+ implementation. My intent in implementing the restoration first is to
+ solve pressing bugs in the restoration handling, and to ensure that
+ the new restore implementation handles existing backups correctly.
+
+ I do not plan on changing the network or tape data structures to
+ support defining arbitrary stream filters, but supporting that
+ functionality is the ultimate goal.
+
+ Assistance with either code or testing would be fantastic.

+ Status: New feature request
+
+ What: While using bconsole interactively, you can specify the client
+ that a backup job is to be restored for, and then you can
+ specify later a different client to send the restored files
+ back to. However, using the 'restore' command with all options
+ on the command line, this cannot be done, due to the ambiguous
+ 'client' parameter. Additionally, this parameter means different
+ things depending on if it's specified on the command line or
+ afterwards, in the Modify Job screens.
+
+ Why: This feature would enable restore jobs to be more completely
+ automated, for example by a web or GUI front-end.
+
+ Notes: client can also be implied by specifying the jobid on the command
+ line

+ stored in a disk set on a 2TB RAID. If you add these devices in the
+ middle of the month, the incrementals are upgraded to "full" backups,
+ but they try to use the same storage device as requested in the
+ incremental job, filling up the RAID holding the differentials. If we
+ could override the Storage parameter for full and/or differential
+ backups, then the Full job would use the proper Storage device, which
+ has more capacity (i.e. a 8TB tape library.

+Item 25: Implement huge exclude list support using hashing (dlists).
+ Date: 28 October 2005
+ Origin: Kern
+ Status: Done in 2.1.2 but was done with dlists (doubly linked lists
+ since hashing will not help. The huge list also supports
+ large include lists).
+
+ What: Allow users to specify very large exclude list (currently
+ more than about 1000 files is too many).
+
+ Why: This would give the users the ability to exclude all
+ files that are loaded with the OS (e.g. using rpms
+ or debs). If the user can restore the base OS from
+ CDs, there is no need to backup all those files. A
+ complete restore would be to restore the base OS, then
+ do a Bacula restore. By excluding the base OS files, the
+ backup set will be *much* smaller.
+
+Item 26: Implement more Python events in Bacula.
+ Date: 28 October 2005
+ Origin: Kern
+ Status:
+
+ What: Allow Python scripts to be called at more places
+ within Bacula and provide additional access to Bacula
+ internal variables.
+
+ Why: This will permit users to customize Bacula through
+ Python scripts.
+
+ Notes: Recycle event
+ Scratch pool event
+ NeedVolume event
+ MediaFull event
+
+ Also add a way to get a listing of currently running
+ jobs (possibly also scheduled jobs).

+Item 27: Incorporation of XACML2/SAML2 parsing
+ Date: 19 January 2006
+ Origin: Adam Thornton <athornton@sinenomine.net>
+ Status: Blue sky
+
+ What: XACML is "eXtensible Access Control Markup Language" and
+ "SAML is the "Security Assertion Markup Language"--an XML standard
+ for making statements about identity and authorization. Having these
+ would give us a framework to approach ACLs in a generic manner, and
+ in a way flexible enough to support the four major sorts of ACLs I
+ see as a concern to Bacula at this point, as well as (probably) to
+ deal with new sorts of ACLs that may appear in the future.
+
+ Why: Bacula is beginning to need to back up systems with ACLs
+ that do not map cleanly onto traditional Unix permissions. I see
+ four sets of ACLs--in general, mutually incompatible with one
+ another--that we're going to need to deal with. These are: NTFS
+ ACLs, POSIX ACLs, NFSv4 ACLS, and AFS ACLS. (Some may question the
+ relevance of AFS; AFS is one of Sine Nomine's core consulting
+ businesses, and having a reputable file-level backup and restore
+ technology for it (as Tivoli is probably going to drop AFS support
+ soon since IBM no longer supports AFS) would be of huge benefit to
+ our customers; we'd most likely create the AFS support at Sine Nomine
+ for inclusion into the Bacula (and perhaps some changes to the
+ OpenAFS volserver) core code.)
+
+ Now, obviously, Bacula already handles NTFS just fine. However, I
+ think there's a lot of value in implementing a generic ACL model, so
+ that it's easy to support whatever particular instances of ACLs come
+ down the pike: POSIX ACLS (think SELinux) and NFSv4 are the obvious
+ things arriving in the Linux world in a big way in the near future.
+ XACML, although overcomplicated for our needs, provides this
+ framework, and we should be able to leverage other people's
+ implementations to minimize the amount of work *we* have to do to get
+ a generic ACL framework. Basically, the costs of implementation are
+ high, but they're largely both external to Bacula and already sunk.
+
+Item 28: Filesystem watch triggered backup.
+ Date: 31 August 2006
+ Origin: Jesper Krogh <jesper@krogh.cc>
+ Status: Unimplemented, depends probably on "client initiated backups"
+
+ What: With inotify and similar filesystem triggeret notification
+ systems is it possible to have the file-daemon to monitor
+ filesystem changes and initiate backup.
+
+ Why: There are 2 situations where this is nice to have.
+ 1) It is possible to get a much finer-grained backup than
+ the fixed schedules used now.. A file created and deleted
+ a few hours later, can automatically be caught.
+
+ 2) The introduced load on the system will probably be
+ distributed more even on the system.
+
+ Notes: This can be combined with configration that specifies
+ something like: "at most every 15 minutes or when changes
+ consumed XX MB".
+
+Kern Notes: I would rather see this implemented by an external program
+ that monitors the Filesystem changes, then uses the console
+ to start the appropriate job.
+
+Item 29: Allow inclusion/exclusion of files in a fileset by creation/mod times
+ Origin: Evan Kaufman <evan.kaufman@gmail.com>
+ Date: January 11, 2006
+ Status:
+
+ What: In the vein of the Wild and Regex directives in a Fileset's
+ Options, it would be helpful to allow a user to include or exclude
+ files and directories by creation or modification times.
+
+ You could factor the Exclude=yes|no option in much the same way it
+ affects the Wild and Regex directives. For example, you could exclude
+ all files modified before a certain date:
+
+ Options {
+ Exclude = yes
+ Modified Before = ####
+ }
+
+ Or you could exclude all files created/modified since a certain date:
+
+ Options {
+ Exclude = yes
+ Created Modified Since = ####
+ }
+
+ The format of the time/date could be done several ways, say the number
+ of seconds since the epoch:
+ 1137008553 = Jan 11 2006, 1:42:33PM # result of `date +%s`
+
+ Or a human readable date in a cryptic form:
+ 20060111134233 = Jan 11 2006, 1:42:33PM # YYYYMMDDhhmmss
+
+ Why: I imagine a feature like this could have many uses. It would
+ allow a user to do a full backup while excluding the base operating
+ system files, so if I installed a Linux snapshot from a CD yesterday,
+ I'll *exclude* all files modified *before* today. If I need to
+ recover the system, I use the CD I already have, plus the tape backup.
+ Or if, say, a Windows client is hit by a particularly corrosive
+ virus, and I need to *exclude* any files created/modified *since* the
+ time of infection.
+
+ Notes: Of course, this feature would work in concert with other
+ in/exclude rules, and wouldnt override them (or each other).
+
+ Notes: The directives I'd imagine would be along the lines of
+ "[Created] [Modified] [Before|Since] = <date>".
+ So one could compare against 'ctime' and/or 'mtime', but ONLY 'before'
+ or 'since'.

+Item 30: Tray monitor window cleanups
+ Origin: Alan Brown ajb2 at mssl dot ucl dot ac dot uk
+ Date: 24 July 2006
+ Status:
+ What: Resizeable and scrollable windows in the tray monitor.
+
+ Why: With multiple clients, or with many jobs running, the displayed
+ window often ends up larger than the available screen, making
+ the trailing items difficult to read.
+
+
+Item 31: Implement multiple numeric backup levels as supported by dump
+Date: 3 April 2006
+Origin: Daniel Rich <drich@employees.org>
+Status:
+What: Dump allows specification of backup levels numerically instead of just
+ "full", "incr", and "diff". In this system, at any given level, all
+ files are backed up that were were modified since the last backup of a
+ higher level (with 0 being the highest and 9 being the lowest). A
+ level 0 is therefore equivalent to a full, level 9 an incremental, and
+ the levels 1 through 8 are varying levels of differentials. For
+ bacula's sake, these could be represented as "full", "incr", and
+ "diff1", "diff2", etc.
+
+Why: Support of multiple backup levels would provide for more advanced backup
+ rotation schemes such as "Towers of Hanoi". This would allow better
+ flexibility in performing backups, and can lead to shorter recover
+ times.
+
+Notes: Legato Networker supports a similar system with full, incr, and 1-9 as
+ levels.
+
+Item 32: Automatic promotion of backup levels
+ Date: 19 January 2006
+ Origin: Adam Thornton <athornton@sinenomine.net>
+ Status:
+
+ What: Amanda has a feature whereby it estimates the space that a
+ differential, incremental, and full backup would take. If the
+ difference in space required between the scheduled level and the next
+ level up is beneath some user-defined critical threshold, the backup
+ level is bumped to the next type. Doing this minimizes the number of
+ volumes necessary during a restore, with a fairly minimal cost in
+ backup media space.
+
+ Why: I know at least one (quite sophisticated and smart) user
+ for whom the absence of this feature is a deal-breaker in terms of
+ using Bacula; if we had it it would eliminate the one cool thing
+ Amanda can do and we can't (at least, the one cool thing I know of).
+
+Item 33: Clustered file-daemons
+ Origin: Alan Brown ajb2 at mssl dot ucl dot ac dot uk
+ Date: 24 July 2006
+ Status:
+ What: A "virtual" filedaemon, which is actually a cluster of real ones.
+
+ Why: In the case of clustered filesystems (SAN setups, GFS, or OCFS2, etc)
+ multiple machines may have access to the same set of filesystems
+
+ For performance reasons, one may wish to initate backups from
+ several of these machines simultaneously, instead of just using
+ one backup source for the common clustered filesystem.
+
+ For obvious reasons, normally backups of $A-FD/$PATH and
+ B-FD/$PATH are treated as different backup sets. In this case
+ they are the same communal set.
+
+ Likewise when restoring, it would be easier to just specify
+ one of the cluster machines and let bacula decide which to use.
+
+ This can be faked to some extent using DNS round robin entries
+ and a virtual IP address, however it means "status client" will
+ always give bogus answers. Additionally there is no way of
+ spreading the load evenly among the servers.
+
+ What is required is something similar to the storage daemon
+ autochanger directives, so that Bacula can keep track of
+ operating backups/restores and direct new jobs to a "free"
+ client.
+
+ Notes:
+
+Item 34: Commercial database support
+ Origin: Russell Howe <russell_howe dot wreckage dot org>
+ Date: 26 July 2006
+ Status:
+
+ What: It would be nice for the database backend to support more
+ databases. I'm thinking of SQL Server at the moment, but I guess Oracle,
+ DB2, MaxDB, etc are all candidates. SQL Server would presumably be
+ implemented using FreeTDS or maybe an ODBC library?
+
+ Why: We only really have one database server, which is MS SQL Server
+ 2000. Maintaining a second one for the backup software (we grew out of
+ SQLite, which I liked, but which didn't work so well with our database
+ size). We don't really have a machine with the resources to run
+ postgres, and would rather only maintain a single DBMS. We're stuck with
+ SQL Server because pretty much all the company's custom applications
+ (written by consultants) are locked into SQL Server 2000. I can imagine
+ this scenario is fairly common, and it would be nice to use the existing
+ properly specced database server for storing Bacula's catalog, rather
+ than having to run a second DBMS.
+
+Item 35: Automatic disabling of devices
+ Date: 2005-11-11
+ Origin: Peter Eriksson <peter at ifm.liu dot se>
+ Status:
+
+ What: After a configurable amount of fatal errors with a tape drive
+ Bacula should automatically disable further use of a certain
+ tape drive. There should also be "disable"/"enable" commands in
+ the "bconsole" tool.
+
+ Why: On a multi-drive jukebox there is a possibility of tape drives
+ going bad during large backups (needing a cleaning tape run,
+ tapes getting stuck). It would be advantageous if Bacula would
+ automatically disable further use of a problematic tape drive
+ after a configurable amount of errors has occurred.
+
+ An example: I have a multi-drive jukebox (6 drives, 380+ slots)
+ where tapes occasionally get stuck inside the drive. Bacula will
+ notice that the "mtx-changer" command will fail and then fail
+ any backup jobs trying to use that drive. However, it will still
+ keep on trying to run new jobs using that drive and fail -
+ forever, and thus failing lots and lots of jobs... Since we have
+ many drives Bacula could have just automatically disabled
+ further use of that drive and used one of the other ones
+ instead.
+
+Item 36: An option to operate on all pools with update vol parameters
+ Origin: Dmitriy Pinchukov <absh@bossdev.kiev.ua>
+ Date: 16 August 2006
+ Status:
+
+ What: When I do update -> Volume parameters -> All Volumes
+ from Pool, then I have to select pools one by one. I'd like
+ console to have an option like "0: All Pools" in the list of
+ defined pools.
+
+ Why: I have many pools and therefore unhappy with manually
+ updating each of them using update -> Volume parameters -> All
+ Volumes from Pool -> pool #.
+
+Item 37: Add an item to the restore option where you can select a pool
+ Origin: kshatriyak at gmail dot com
+ Date: 1/1/2006
+ Status:
+
+ What: In the restore option (Select the most recent backup for a
+ client) it would be useful to add an option where you can limit
+ the selection to a certain pool.
+
+ Why: When using cloned jobs, most of the time you have 2 pools - a
+ disk pool and a tape pool. People who have 2 pools would like to
+ select the most recent backup from disk, not from tape (tape
+ would be only needed in emergency). However, the most recent
+ backup (which may just differ a second from the disk backup) may
+ be on tape and would be selected. The problem becomes bigger if
+ you have a full and differential - the most "recent" full backup
+ may be on disk, while the most recent differential may be on tape
+ (though the differential on disk may differ even only a second or
+ so). Bacula will complain that the backups reside on different
+ media then. For now the only solution now when restoring things
+ when you have 2 pools is to manually search for the right
+ job-id's and enter them by hand, which is a bit fault tolerant.
+
+Item 38: Include timestamp of job launch in "stat clients" output
+ Origin: Mark Bergman <mark.bergman@uphs.upenn.edu>
+ Date: Tue Aug 22 17:13:39 EDT 2006
+ Status:
+
+ What: The "stat clients" command doesn't include any detail on when
+ the active backup jobs were launched.
+
+ Why: Including the timestamp would make it much easier to decide whether
+ a job is running properly.
+
+ Notes: It may be helpful to have the output from "stat clients" formatted
+ more like that from "stat dir" (and other commands), in a column
+ format. The per-client information that's currently shown (level,
+ client name, JobId, Volume, pool, device, Files, etc.) is good, but
+ somewhat hard to parse (both programmatically and visually),
+ particularly when there are many active clients.
+
+
+Item 39: Message mailing based on backup types
+ Origin: Evan Kaufman <evan.kaufman@gmail.com>
+ Date: January 6, 2006
+ Status:
+
+ What: In the "Messages" resource definitions, allowing messages
+ to be mailed based on the type (backup, restore, etc.) and level
+ (full, differential, etc) of job that created the originating
+ message(s).
+
+ Why: It would, for example, allow someone's boss to be emailed
+ automatically only when a Full Backup job runs, so he can
+ retrieve the tapes for offsite storage, even if the IT dept.
+ doesn't (or can't) explicitly notify him. At the same time, his
+ mailbox wouldnt be filled by notifications of Verifies, Restores,
+ or Incremental/Differential Backups (which would likely be kept
+ onsite).
+
+ Notes: One way this could be done is through additional message types, for example:
+
+ Messages {
+ # email the boss only on full system backups
+ Mail = boss@mycompany.com = full, !incremental, !differential, !restore,
+ !verify, !admin
+ # email us only when something breaks
+ MailOnError = itdept@mycompany.com = all

+ No need to vote for this item.
+
+ What: Change the name of the spool file to include the JobID

+ Why: JobIDs are the common key used to refer to jobs, yet the
+ spoolfile name doesn't include that information. The date/time

+============= New Freature Requests after vote of 26 Jan 2007 ========
+Item 41: Enable to relocate files and directories when restoring
+ Date: 2007-03-01
+ Origin: Eric Bollengier <eric@eb.homelinux.org>
+ Status: Done.
+
+ What: The where= option is not powerful enough. It will be
+ a great feature if bacula can restore a file in the
+ same directory, but with a different name, or in
+ an other directory without recreating the full path.
+
+ Why: When i want to restore a production environment to a
+ development environment, i just want change the first
+ directory. ie restore /prod/data/file.dat to /rect/data/file.dat.
+ At this time, i have to move by hand files. You must have a big
+ dump space to restore and move data after.
+
+ When i use Linux or SAN snapshot, i mount them to /mnt/snap_xxx
+ so, when a restore a file, i have to move by hand
+ from /mnt/snap_xxx/file to /xxx/file. I can't replace a file
+ easily.
+
+ When a user ask me to restore a file in its personal folder,
+ (without replace the existing one), i can't restore from
+ my_file.txt to my_file.txt.old witch is very practical.
+
+
+ Notes: I think we can enhance the where= option very easily by
+ allowing regexp expression.
+
+ Since, many users think that regexp are not user friendly, i think
+ that bat, bconsole or brestore must provide a simple way to
+ configure where= option (i think to something like in
+ openoffice "search and replace").
+
+ Ie, if user uses where=/tmp/bacula-restore, we keep the old
+ fashion.
+
+ If user uses something like where=s!/prod!/test!, files will
+ be restored from /prod/xxx to /test/xxx.
+
+ If user uses something like where=s/$/.old/, files will
+ be restored from /prod/xxx.txt to /prod/xxx.txt.old.
+
+ If user uses something like where=s/txt$/old.txt/, files will
+ be restored from /prod/xxx.txt to /prod/xxx.old.txt
+
+ if user uses something like where=s/([a-z]+)$/old.$1/, files will
+ be restored from /prod/xxx.ext to /prod/xxx.old.ext

+Item n: Implement Catalog directive for Pool resource in Director
+configuration
+ Origin: Alan Davis adavis@ruckus.com
+ Date: 6 March 2007
+ Status: Submitted
+
+ What: The current behavior is for the director to create all pools
+ found in the configuration file in all catalogs. Add a
+ Catalog directive to the Pool resource to specify which
+ catalog to use for each pool definition.
+
+ Why: This allows different catalogs to have different pool
+ attributes and eliminates the side-effect of adding
+ pools to catalogs that don't need/use them.
+
+ Notes:
+
+
+Item n: Implement NDMP protocol support
+ Origin: Alan Davis
+ Date: 06 March 2007
+ Status: Submitted
+
+ What: Network Data Management Protocol is implemented by a number of
+ NAS filer vendors to enable backups using third-party
+ software.
+
+ Why: This would allow NAS filer backups in Bacula without incurring
+ the overhead of NFS or SBM/CIFS.
+
+ Notes: Further information is available:
+ http://www.ndmp.org
+ http://www.ndmp.org/wp/wp.shtml
+ http://www.traakan.com/ndmjob/index.html
+
+ There are currently no viable open-source NDMP
+ implementations. There is a reference SDK and example
+ app available from ndmp.org but it has problems
+ compiling on recent Linux and Solaris OS'. The ndmjob
+ reference implementation from Traakan is known to
+ compile on Solaris 10.
+
+ Notes (Kern): I am not at all in favor of this until NDMP becomes
+ an Open Standard or until there are Open Source libraries
+ that interface to it.

+
+Date: 12 April 2007)

+ Currently it is possible to modify the backup level
+ and the spooldata setting in a Schedule resource.

+ the "run" command in the console.
+ But it is currently not possible to to the same
+ with "spooldata=yes|no" like:
+
+ run job=MyJob level=incremental spooldata=yes
+
+Why: In some situations it would be handy to be able to switch

+
+ <p>Also, if you are using Bacula in production, we highly recommend
+ subscribing to the bugs database at: <a href="http://bugs.bacula.org">
+ http://bugs.bacula.org</a> to keep informed of problems and
+ patches. You might also want to look for professional support at:
+ <a href="http://www.bacula.org/es/?page=professional">
+ http://www.bacula.org/es/?page=professional</a>.<br>
+
+
+ <p>Please do not submit support requests to the bugs database.
+ For more information on bugs, please see the <a
+ href=http://www.bacula.org/es/?page=bugs>Bugs page</a> on this
+ web site.
+
+ <p>For community support, send an email to
+ <b>bacula-users at lists.sourceforge.net</b>, and if you are
+ specific enough, some kind Bacula user will help you. Please
+ note that if you don't at least specify what version of Bacula
+ and what platform you are using, it will not be easy to get a
+ valid answer. The email address noted above
+ was modified to prevent easy use by spammers.
+ To use it, you must replace the <b>at</b> with an @ symbol. Due
+ to the increasing volumes of spam on the list, you must
+ be subscribed to it to be able to send and email to it. The
+ link to your left entitled <b>Email Lists</b> provides links
+ to where you can subscribe to each of the Bacula email lists.
+
+ The users constantly monitor this list and will generally provide
+ support. Please see <b>Information Needed</b> below for what to
+ include in your support request. If you don't supply the necessary
+ information, it will take longer to respond to your request, and
+ users may be afraid to try to respond,
+ if your request is too complicated or not well formulated.
+
+
+ <p>I (Kern) get a number of "off-list" emails sent
+ directly to me. Unfortunately, I am no longer able to provide
+ direct user support. However, I do read all the email sent and
+ occasionally provide a tip or two. If you do send email to me,
+ please always copy the appropriate list, if you
+ do not copy the list, I may not answer you, or I will answer by copying
+ the list. If you <em>really</em> have something confidential,
+ please clearly indicate it.</p>
+
+ <p>Please do not send general support requests to the bacula-devel list.
+ You may send a preliminary bug question, a development question,
+ or minor enhancement request to the bacula-devel list. If
+ you do not provide the information
+ requested below, particularly the Bacula version, it is <b>very</b>
+ frustrating for us, because it is quite often the case that your problem is
+ version dependent, and possibly already fixed. In such case, we will note
+ the problem, but you will be unlikely to get a response, especially if we
+ are busy, because it forces us to first ask you what version you are using
+ (or other information), then deal with your response, thus doubling the
+ time for us. If we do ask you for information, please include <b>all</b>
+ the previous correspondence in each email, to avoid us having to search
+ the archives to find what you previously wrote. In short, if you want a
+ response, please see "Information Needed" below.
+
+ <p>If you are looking for live-support you might check out our irc-channel
+ in the <a href="http://www.freenode.net">Freenode</a> net, called #bacula.
+
+<h3>Information Needed</h3>
+For us to respond to a bug report, we normally need the following
+as the minimum information, which you can enter into the appropriate
+fields of the bug reporting system:
+<ul>
+<li>Your operating system</li>
+<li>The version of Bacula you are using</li>
+<li>A <a href="http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html">clear and concise</a> description of the problem</li>
+<li>If you say "it crashes", "it doesn't work" or something
+ similar, you should include some output from Bacula that shows this.</li>
+<li>If we respond to your email, and you answer, possibly supplying more
+ information, please be sure to include the <b>full</b> text of previous
+ emails so that we have all the information in one place.</li>
+</ul>
+If you are having tape problems, please include:
+<ul>
+ <li>The kind of tape drive you have </li>
+ <li>Have you run the <b>btape</b> "test" command?</li>
+</ul>
+
+If you are having database problems, please include:
+<ul>
+ <li>The database you are using: MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, SQLite3 </li>
+ <li>The version of the database you are using</li>
+</ul>
+
+The first two of these items can be fulfilled by sending
+us a copy of your <b>config.out</b> file, which is in the
+main <b>Bacula</b> source directory after you have done
+your <b>./configure</b>.
+<p>In addition, we will sometimes need a copy of your Bacula
+configuration files (especially bacula-dir.conf). If you
+think it is a configuration problem, please don't hesitate
+to send them if necessary.</td>

+ Bacula has been awesome for us. We used to use Ar**** but I
+ have always hated the interface. And the cost was outrageous.

+ Our former backup-system was ARGHserve running on NT4.
+ Due to the fact that we replaced most of our servers with
+ Linux machines we had to find some other solution.<br> At
+ first we tried ARGHserve on Linux, without much comfort.
+ Database updates took days to complete, the database
+ itself grew enormously large, ... not really something
+ you except from such an expensive piece of software.<br>
+ I began the quest for a new backup-solution, testing
+ almost anything I could find on Sourceforge and Freshmeat
+ and finally decided to go with Bacula.<br> It's perfectly
+ maintained by Kern and many others, is an (very) active
+ project with good support through maillists and an
+ irc-channel, which can be found on Freenode.<br>
+ <br>
+ Today we run Bacula on a SuSE based x86 machine with a
+ 2.6 kernel, some RAID5-Systems and IBM Ultrium
+ Tapelibrary. Without any issues and without more work
+ than changing two tapes in the morning.<br>
+ <br>
+ Recoveries aren't complicated as well, you either choose
+ a jobid to restore from or let Bacula find the correct
+ jobid for a file or directory you need to recover. You
+ mark everything you need, Bacula tells you which tapes it
+ needs, done.<br>
+ You don't even have to wait for any daemon to finish
+ database updates for backuped files, you can start with
+ the recovery right after the backup-job is done.
+ Perfect. <br>

+ I had previously used Veritas Netbackup, but it was really too expensive
+ for our University. Bacula permitted us to buy a library. Now, we use
+ Bacula since 10/2002 with an ADIC Scalar 24 library and LTO ultrium,
+ without any problems. I think it can do anything Netbackup could do with our
+ configuration. We backup seven Linux servers, one NT server, four
+ Windows 2003 servers and a few XP workstations. Some of these servers
+ are backed up across a firewall using ssh; some others are on a private
+ network. We tried succesfully the disaster recovery procedure on Linux
+ and had some good results in restoring Windows "from bare metal". What do I
+ like in Bacula ? It is very flexible and reliable. With its light
+ interface console, I can manage the backups from everywhere. A few words
+ about the support : it is free but efficient. I don't have to cross a
+ level 1, level 2 helpdesk to have some help, I never felt alone, and the
+ bacula-users mailing list is a mix of courtesy and honest speech. At

+ Bacula provided a solution when I had no budget for backup

+ <td class="content">
+
+<b>Bacula</b> is a set of computer programs that permit you (or the
+system administrator) to manage backup, recovery, and verification of
+computer data across a network of computers of different kinds. In
+technical terms, it is a network Client/Server based backup program.
+Bacula is relatively easy to use and efficient, while offering many
+advanced storage management features that make it easy to find and
+recover lost or damaged files. Due to its modular design, Bacula is
+scalable from small single computer systems to systems consisting of
+hundreds of computers located over a large network.
+<h3>Who Needs Bacula?</h3>
+If you are currently using a program such as <b>tar</b>, <b>dump</b>, or
+<b>bru</b> to backup your computer data, and you would like a network
+solution, more flexibility, or catalog services, Bacula will most
+likely provide the additional features you want. However, if you are
+new to Unix systems or do not have offsetting experience with a sophisticated
+backup package, we do not recommend using Bacula as it is
+much more difficult to setup and use than <b>tar</b> or <b>dump</b>.
+<p>If you are running <b>Amanda</b> and would like a backup program that
+can write to multiple volumes (i.e. is not limited by your tape drive
+capacity), Bacula can most likely fill your needs. In addition,
+quite a number of our users report that Bacula is simpler to
+setup and use than other equivalent programs.
+<p>If you are
+currently using a sophisticated commercial package such as Legato
+Networker. ARCserveIT, Arkeia, or PerfectBackup+, you may be interested
+in Bacula, which provides many of the same features, and is free
+software available under the GNU Version 2 software license.
+
+<h3>Bacula Components or Services</h3>
+Bacula is made up of the following five major components or services:
+<p style="text-align: center; font-size: small">
+ <img src="images/manual/bacula-applications.png" alt="" width="576" height="734"><br>
+ thanks to Aristedes Maniatis for this graphic and the one below
+</p>
+<p>
+<ul>
+<li><a name="DirDef"></a>
+ <b>Bacula Director</b> service consists of the program that
+ supervises all the backup, restore, verify and archive operations.
+ The system administrator uses the Bacula Director to schedule
+ backups and to recover files. For more details see the <a
+ href="rel-manual/director.html">Director Services Daemon Design Document</a>.
+ The Director runs as a daemon or a service (i.e. in the background).
+</li>
+<li><a name="UADef"></a>
+ <b>Bacula Console</b> services is the program that allows the
+ administrator or user to communicate with the <b>Bacula Director</b>
+ (see above). Currently, the Bacula Console is available in three
+ versions. The first and simplest is to run the Console program in a
+ shell window (i.e. TTY interface). Most system administrators will
+ find this completely adequate. The second version is a GNOME GUI
+ interface that for the moment (23 November 2003) is far from complete,
+ but quite functional as it has most the capabilities of the shell
+ Console. The third version is a wxWidgets GUI with an interactive file
+ restore. It also has most the capabilities of the shell console,
+ allows command completion with tabulation, and gives you instant
+ help about the command you are typing. For more details see the
+ <a href="rel-manual/console.html">Bacula Console Design Document</a>.
+</li>
+<li><a name="FDDef"></a>
+ <b>Bacula File</b> services (or Client program) is the software
+ program that is installed on the machine to be backed up. It is
+ specific to the operating system on which it runs and is responsible
+ for providing the file attributes and data when requested by the
+ Director. The File services are also responsible for the file
+ system dependent part of restoring the file attributes and data
+ during a recovery operation. For more details see the <a
+ href="rel-manual/file.html">File Services Daemon Design Document</a>. This
+ program runs as a daemon on the machine to be backed up, and in some
+ of the documentation, the File daemon is referred to as the Client
+ (for example in Bacula's configuration file). In addition to
+ Unix/Linux File daemons, there is a Windows File daemon (normally
+ distributed in binary format). The Windows File daemon runs on
+ all currently known Windows versions (95, 98, Me, NT, 2000, XP).
+</li>
+<li><a name="SDDef"></a>
+ <b>Bacula Storage</b> services consist of the software programs that
+ perform the storage and recovery of the file attributes and data to
+ the physical backup media or volumes. In other words, the Storage daemon
+ is responsible for reading and writing your tapes (or other
+ storage media, e.g. files). For more details see the <a
+ href="rel-manual/storage.html">Storage Services Daemon Design Document</a>.
+ The Storage services runs as a daemon on the machine that has the
+ backup device (usually a tape drive).
+</li>
+<li><a name="DBDefinition"></a>
+ <b>Catalog</b> services are comprised of the software programs
+ responsible for maintaining the file indexes and volume databases for
+ all files backed up. The Catalog services permit the System
+ Administrator or user to quickly locate and restore any desired
+ file. The Catalog services sets Bacula apart from simple backup
+ programs like tar and bru, because the catalog maintains a record
+ of all Volumes used, all Jobs run, and all Files saved, permitting
+ efficicient restoration and Volume management.
+ Bacula currently supports three different databases, MySQL,
+ PostgreSQL, and SQLite, one of which must be chosen when building
+ <b>Bacula</b>. There also exists an Internal database, but it is no
+ longer supported.
+ <p>
+ The three SQL databases currently supported (MySQL, PostgreSQL or SQLite)
+ provide quite a number of features,
+ including rapid indexing, arbitrary queries, and security. Although
+ we plan to support other major SQL databases, the current
+ Bacula implementation interfaces only to MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite.
+ For more details see the <a href="rel-manual/catalog.html">Catalog Services
+ Design Document</a>.
+ <p>The RPMs for MySQL and PostgreSQL ship as part of the Linux RedHat release,
+ or building it from the source is quite easy, see the
+ <a href="rel-manual/mysql.html"> Installing and Configuring MySQL</a> chapter
+ of this document for the details. For more information on MySQL,
+ please see: <a href="http://www.mysql.com">www.mysql.com</a>.
+ Or see the <a href="rel-manual/postgresql.html"> Installing and Configuring
+ PostgreSQL</a> chapter of this document for the details. For more
+ information on PostgreSQL, please see: <a
+ href="http://www.postgresql.org">www.postgresql.org</a>.
+ <p>Configuring and building SQLite is even easier. For the details
+ of configuring SQLite, please see the <a href="rel-manual/sqlite.html">
+ Installing and Configuring SQLite</a> chapter of this document.
+</li>
+<li><a name="MonDef"></a>
+ <b>Bacula Monitor</b> services is the program that allows the
+ administrator or user to watch current status of <b>Bacula Directors</b>,
+ <b>Bacula File Daemons</b> and <b>Bacula Storage Daemons</b>
+ (see above). Currently, only a GTK+ version is available, which
+ works with Gnome and KDE (or any window manager that supports the
+ FreeDesktop.org system tray standard).
+</li>
+</ul>
+To perform a successful save or restore, the following four daemons
+must be configured and running: the Director daemon, the File daemon,
+the Storage daemon, and MySQL, PostgreSQL or SQLite.
+
+<h3>Bacula Configuration</h3>
+In order for Bacula to understand your system, what clients you
+want backed up, and how, you must create a number of configuration
+files containing resources (or objects). The following presents an
+overall picture of this:
+<p style="text-align: center">
+ <img src="images/manual/bacula-objects.png" alt="" width="576" height="734">

+
+<h3>Conventions Used in this Document</h3>
+<b>Bacula</b> is in a state of evolution, and as a consequence,
+this manual will not always agree with the code. If an
+item in this manual is preceded by an asterisk (*), it indicates
+that the particular feature is not implemented. If it is preceded
+by a plus sign (+), it indicates that the feature may be partially
+implemented.
+<p>If you are reading this manual as supplied in a released version
+of the software, the above paragraph holds true. If you are reading
+the online version of the manual, <a href="/dev-manual">
+http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual</a>, please bear in mind that this version
+describes the current version in development (in the SVN) that may
+contain features not in the released version. Just the same,
+it generally lags behind the code a bit.
+<h3>Quick Start</h3>
+To get Bacula up and running quickly, we recommend that you first
+scan the Terminology section below, then quickly review the next chapter
+entitled <a href="rel-manual/state.html">The Current State of Bacula</a>, then the
+<a href="rel-manual/quickstart.html">Quick Start Guide to Bacula</a>, which will
+give you a quick overview of getting Bacula running. After
+which, you should proceed to the
+chapter on <a href="rel-manual/install.html"> Installing Bacula</a>, then <a
+href="rel-manual/configure.html">How to Configure Bacula</a>,
+and finally the chapter on <a href="rel-manual/running.html">
+Running Bacula</a>.
+
+<h3>Terminology</h3>
+To facilitate communication about this project, we provide here
+the definitions of the terminology that we use.
+<dl>
+ <dt>Administrator</dt>
+ <dd>The person or persons responsible for administrating the Bacula system.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Backup</dt>
+ <dd>We use the term <b>Backup</b> to refer to a Bacula Job that saves files. </dd>
+
+ <dt>Bootstrap File</dt>
+ <dd>The bootstrap file is an ASCII file
+ containing a compact form of commands that allow Bacula or
+ the stand-alone file extraction utility (<b>bextract</b>) to
+ restore the contents of one or more Volumes, for example, the
+ current state of a system just backed up. With a bootstrap file,
+ Bacula can restore your system without a Catalog. You can
+ create a bootstrap file from a Catalog to extract any file or
+ files you wish.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Catalog</dt>
+ <dd>The Catalog is used to store summary information
+ about the Jobs, Clients, and Files that were backed up and on
+ what Volume or Volumes. The information saved in the Catalog
+ permits the administrator or user to determine what jobs were
+ run, their status as well as the important characteristics
+ of each file that was backed up. The Catalog is an online resource,
+ but does not contain the data for the files backed up. Most of
+ the information stored in the catalog is also stored on the
+ backup volumes (i.e. tapes). Of course, the tapes will also have
+ a copy of the file in addition to the File Attributes (see below).
+ <p>The catalog feature is one part of Bacula that distinguishes
+ it from simple backup and archive programs such as <b>dump</b>
+ and <b>tar</b>.
+ </dd>
+
+ <dt>Client</dt>
+ <dd>In Bacula's terminology, the word Client
+ refers to the machine being backed up, and it is synonymous
+ with the File services or File daemon, and quite often, we
+ refer to it as the FD. A Client is defined in a configuration
+ file resource. </dd>
+
+ <dt>Console</dt>
+ <dd>The program that interfaces to the Director allowing
+ the user or system administrator to control Bacula.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Daemon</dt>
+ <dd>Unix terminology for a program that is always present in
+ the background to carry out a designated task. On Windows systems, as
+ well as some Linux systems, daemons are called <b>Services</b>.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Directive</dt>
+ <dd>The term directive is used to refer to a statement
+ or a record within a Resource in a configuration file that
+ defines one specific thing. For example, the <b>Name</b> directive
+ defines the name of the Resource.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Director</dt>
+ <dd>The main Bacula server daemon that schedules and directs all
+ Bacula operations. Occassionally, we refer to the Director as DIR.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Differential</dt>
+ <dd>A backup that includes all files changed since the last
+ Full save started. Note, other backup programs may define this differently.</dd>
+
+ <dt>File Attributes</dt>
+ <dd>The File Attributes are all the information
+ necessary about a file to identify it and all its properties such as
+ size, creation date, modification date, permissions, etc. Normally, the
+ attributes are handled entirely by Bacula so that the user never
+ needs to be concerned about them. The attributes do not include the
+ file's data.
+
+ <dt>File Daemon</dt>
+ <dd>The daemon running on the client
+ computer to be backed up. This is also referred to as the File
+ services, and sometimes as the Client services or the FD.
+
+ <dt><a name="FileSetDef"></a> FileSet</dt>
+ <dd>A FileSet is a Resource contained in a configuration
+ file that defines the files to be backed up. It consists
+ of a list of included files or directories, a list of excluded files, and
+ how the file is to be stored (compression, encryption, signatures).
+ For more details, see the
+ <a href="rel-manual/director.html#FileSetResource">FileSet Resource definition</a>
+ in the Director chapter of this document.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Incremental</dt>
+ <dd>A backup that includes all files changed since the
+ last Full, Differential, or Incremental backup started. It is normally
+ specified on the <b>Level</b> directive within the Job resource
+ definition, or in a Schedule resourc. </dd>
+
+ <dt><a name="JobDef"></a>Job</dt>
+ <dd>A Bacula Job is a configuration resource that defines
+ the work that Bacula must perform to backup or restore a particular
+ Client. It consists of the <b>Type</b> (backup, restore, verify,
+ etc), the <b>Level</b> (full, incremental,...), the <b>FileSet</b>,
+ and <b>Storage</b> the files are to be backed up (Storage device,
+ Media Pool). For more details, see the
+ <a href="rel-manual/director.html#JobResource">Job Resource definition</a>
+ in the Director chapter of this document. </dd>
+
+ <dt>Monitor</dt>
+ <dd>The program that interfaces to the all the daemons
+ allowing the user or system administrator to monitor Bacula status.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Resource</dt>
+ <dd>A resource is a part of a configuration file that
+ defines a specific unit of information that is available to Bacula.
+ For example, the <b>Job</b> resource defines all the properties of
+ a specific Job: name, schedule, Volume pool, backup type, backup
+ level, ...</dd>
+
+ <dt>Restore</dt>
+ <dd>A restore is a configuration resource that
+ describes the operation of recovering a file (lost or damaged) from
+ backup media. It is the inverse of a save, except that in most
+ cases, a restore will normally have a small set of files to restore,
+ while normally a Save backs up all the files on the system. Of
+ course, after a disk crash, Bacula can be called upon to do
+ a full Restore of all files that were on the system. </dd>
+
+ <dt>Schedule</dt>
+ <dd>A Schedule is a configuration resource that
+ defines when the Bacula Job will be scheduled for
+ execution. To use the Schedule, the Job resource will refer to
+ the name of the Schedule. For more details, see the <a
+ href="rel-manual/director.html#ScheduleResource">Schedule Resource
+ definition</a> in the Director chapter of this document. </dd>
+
+ <dt>Service</dt>
+ <dd>This is Windows terminology for a <b>daemon</b> -- see
+ above. It is now frequently used in Unix environments as well.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Storage Coordinates</dt>
+ <dd>The information returned from the
+ Storage Services that uniquely locates a file on a backup medium. It
+ consists of two parts: one part pertains to each file saved, and the
+ other part pertains to the whole Job. Normally, this information is
+ saved in the Catalog so that the user doesn't need specific knowledge
+ of the Storage Coordinates. The Storage Coordinates include the
+ File Attributes (see above) plus the unique location of the information on
+ the backup Volume. </dd>
+
+ <dt>Storage Daemon</dt>
+ <dd>The Storage daemon, sometimes referred to as
+ the SD, is the code that writes the attributes and data to a storage
+ Volume (usually a tape or disk).</dd>
+
+ <dt>Session</dt>
+ <dd>Normally refers to the internal conversation between
+ the File daemon and the Storage daemon. The File daemon opens a
+ <b>session</b> with the Storage daemon to save a FileSet, or to restore
+ it. A session has a one to one correspondence to a Bacula Job (see
+ above). </dd>
+
+ <dt>Verify</dt>
+ <dd>A verify is a job that compares the current file
+ attributes to the attributes that have previously been stored in the
+ Bacula Catalog. This feature can be used for detecting changes to
+ critical system files similar to what <b>Tripwire</b> does. One
+ of the major advantages of using Bacula to do this is that
+ on the machine you want protected such as a server, you can run
+ just the File daemon, and the Director, Storage daemon, and Catalog
+ reside on a different machine. As a consequence, if your server is
+ ever compromised, it is unlikely that your verification database
+ will be tampered with.
+ <p>Verify can also be used to check that the most recent Job
+ data written to a Volume agrees with what is stored in the Catalog
+ (i.e. it compares the file attributes), *or it can check the
+ Volume contents against the original files on disk. </dd>
+
+ <dt>*Archive</dt>
+ <dd>An Archive operation is done after a Save, and it
+ consists of removing the Volumes on which data is saved from active
+ use. These Volumes are marked as Archived, and many no longer be
+ used to save files. All the files contained on an Archived Volume
+ are removed from the Catalog. NOT YET IMPLEMENTED. </dd>
+
+ <dt>*Update</dt>
+ <dd>An Update operation causes the files on the remote
+ system to be updated to be the same as the host system. This is
+ equivalent to an <b>rdist</b> capability. NOT YET IMPLEMENTED.
+ </dd>
+
+ <dt>Retention Period</dt>
+ <dd>There are various kinds of retention
+ periods that Bacula recognizes. The most important are the
+ <b>File</b> Retention Period, <b>Job</b> Retention Period, and the
+ <b>Volume</b> Retention Period. Each of these retention periods
+ applies to the time that specific records will be kept in the
+ Catalog database. This should not be confused with the time that
+ the data saved to a Volume is valid. <p>The File Retention Period
+ determines the time that File records are kept in the catalog
+ database. This period is important because the volume of the
+ database File records by far use the most storage space in the
+ database. As a consequence, you must ensure that regular
+ "pruning" of the database file records is done. (See
+ the Console <b>retention</b> command for more details on this
+ subject). <p>The Job Retention Period is the length of time that
+ Job records will be kept in the database. Note, all the File
+ records are tied to the Job that saved those files. The File
+ records can be purged leaving the Job records. In this case,
+ information will be available about the jobs that ran, but not the
+ details of the files that were backed up. Normally, when a Job
+ record is purged, all its File records will also be purged. <p>The
+ Volume Retention Period is the minimum of time that a Volume will be
+ kept before it is reused. Bacula will normally never
+ overwrite a Volume that contains the only backup copy of a file.
+ Under ideal conditions, the Catalog would retain entries for all
+ files backed up for all current Volumes. Once a Volume is
+ overwritten, the files that were backed up on that Volume are
+ automatically removed from the Catalog. However, if there is a very
+ large pool of Volumes or a Volume is never overwritten, the Catalog
+ database may become enormous. To keep the Catalog to a manageable
+ size, the backup information should removed from the Catalog after
+ the defined File Retention Period. Bacula provides the
+ mechanisms for the catalog to be automatically pruned according to
+ the retention periods defined. </dd>
+
+ <dt>Scan</dt>
+ <dd>A Scan operation causes the contents of a Volume or a
+ series of Volumes to be scanned. These Volumes with the information
+ on which files they contain are restored to the Bacula Catalog.
+ Once the information is restored to the Catalog, the files contained
+ on those Volumes may be easily restored. This function is
+ particularly useful if certain Volumes or Jobs have exceeded
+ their retention period and have been pruned or purged from the
+ Catalog. Scanning data from Volumes into the Catalog is done
+ by using the <b>bscan</b> program. See the <a href="rel-manual/progs.html#bscan">
+ bscan section</a> of the Bacula Utilities Chapter of this manual
+ for more details.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Volume</dt>
+ <dd>A Volume is an archive unit, normally a tape or
+ a named disk file where Bacula stores the data from one or more
+ backup jobs. All Bacula Volumes have a software label written to
+ the Volume by Bacula so that it identify what Volume it is really
+ reading. (Normally there should be no confusion with disk files,
+ but with tapes, it is easy to mount the wrong one).</dd>

+<h3>What Bacula is Not</h3>
+<b>Bacula</b> is a backup, restore and verification program and is not a
+complete disaster recovery system in itself, but it can be a key part
+of one if you plan carefully and follow the instructions included in the <a
+href="rel-manual/rescue.html"> Disaster Recovery</a> Chapter of this manual.
+<p>
+With proper planning, as mentioned in the Disaster Recovery chapter
+<b>Bacula</b> can be a central component of your disaster recovery
+system. For example, if you have created an emergency boot disk, a
+Bacula Rescue disk to save the current partitioning information of your
+hard disk, and maintain a complete Bacula backup, it is possible to
+completely recover your system from "bare metal".
+<p>
+If you have used the <b>WriteBootstrap</b> record in your job or some
+other means to save a valid bootstrap file, you will be able to use it
+to extract the necessary files (without using the catalog or manually
+searching for the files to restore).
+
+<h3>Interactions Between the Bacula Services</h3>
+The following block diagram shows the typical interactions
+between the Bacula Services for a backup job. Each block
+represents in general a separate process (normally a daemon).
+In general, the Director oversees the flow of information. It also
+maintains the Catalog.
