Then pattern matching is used in place + of hostname matching against the Certificate's CN. As an example, we + have certificates which (a) use a local CA, and (b) have a CN of the + form client_123. +kes Add new/changed entry points to Win32 build +kes Create unaccepted-projects for projects that are not accepted. +kes Simplify locking in the reservations system. +kes Add more debug code in reservations. +kes Make sure error condition on reserving a volume is handled correctly. +kes Correct handling of volume_in_use. +kes Correct handling of initializing a device. +kes Move handling of broadcasting releasing a device into release_device(). +kes Correct attaching dcr to dev so that it is only done if device + is properly initiated. +12Apr07 +kes Locking debug level tweaks in SD. +kes Tweak new Volume code. +11Apr07 +kes Add exec external-command [wait-seconds] to bconsole.

Caused a seg fault in bscan. +kes Implement lock() and unlock() methods in DEVICE class. + Implement block() and set_block(xx) methods in DEVICE class. +kes Modify bnet_connect() so that it uses time() to check for the + wait time expiring (on some OSes, some system calls may not + return immediately). +kes Modify Verify to obtain the previous JobId when it is actually + running rather than at schedule time (as it was in 1.38.x). +kes Fix src/job.c to handle MaxWaitTime correctly.

This + idea came from Juan Luis Frances (if I remember right). +kes Apply Eric's scratch patch that moves a purged Volume to + the RecyclePool. Question: how is RecyclePool set? what + happens to the ScratchPool? +kes Apply Eric's media patch that collects read/write media + times as well as byte counts. This patch requires a + simultaneous upgrade of the DIR and SD. Note, there + should be some way to turn off timing. I'm not sure + times are in Bacula units. +kes Apply Eric's batch-insert patch. +09Feb07 +kes Update projects list. +08Feb07 +kes Implement Include/Exclude file lists in FD as dlists using + the new dlistString class. This permits efficiently having + large include/exclude lists and completes project Item 25. +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.

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). +kes Add set_next() and set_prev() methods which make the code much more + readable. Also add a new dlistString class that facilitates storing + strings in dlists. To be used in the large include/exclude lists. +kes Make some trivial modifications to lib/tree.h that use rblist + rather than dlist for storing the tree links. This was suggested + by Rudolf Cejka. The result of this is that the restore tree now + uses red-black binary trees rather than simple linked lists. This + should give rather dramatic speed improvements for directories + contining large numbers of directories/files (more than 10000). +28Jan07 +kes Fix maxruntime bug #621. +26Jan07 +ebl Implement the include JobID in spool file name project. +kes Reorder projects file in order determined by Jan 2007 vote. +kes Implement item #12 on project list -- quick release of FD by + the SD. +kes Fix open of SQLite3 db where user does not have write permission + so that DIR does not crash.
