+
+Version 1.39.18
+29Jul06
+- Incremented the version number to signify that all of Robert's code
+ for Win32 that was in the branch is now integrated into the HEAD,
+ and that Eric has submitted code that we hope will provide limited
+ backward compatibility with 1.38 file daemons (more testing to be
+ done).
+- I rationalized a few of the names of the variables (mainly jcr names)
+ that are used during migration as keeping three different jcrs at the
+ same time clear in one's head is not easy.
+
+Version 1.39.17
+28Jul06
+- Tweak new runscript feature to work with 1.38.x FDs.
+- Correct crypto.c to fix segfault when restoring an encrypted stream
+ on fd which don't use rsa keys.
+- Add yes/no english keywords on localised yes/no questions.
+27Jul06
+- Several important commits from Robert Nelson for code cleanup and
+ Win32 build.
+- Modify console.c so that when conio is enabled, it converts \n to
+ \n\r before outputting to the console. Hopefully this will fix
+ the problems with expect in Perl that Eric saw.
+24Jul06
+- Change cats/sql.c to elimate %-*s format, which I think is turned
+ off in bsnprintf.
+- Add Comment field to llist of a volume.
+- Allow true/false in some yes/no questions.
+- Implement update volume enable=(on|off|true|false|archived|0|1|2)
+- Remove a few /n's when scanning commands from another daemon. This
+ permits adding additional fields later.
+- Modify dbcheck to handle ctl-d and to delete Log table entries.
+- Update README.mingw
+22Jul06
+- Tweak authentication to work with 1.38.x FDs.
+- Tweak catalog make scripts.
+- Fix catalog upgrade scripts so that they work.
+- Correct despooling debug code to eliminate race condition.
+19Jul06
+- Add additional fields as specified by Arno to LocationLog.
+- Add comment field to the Media record.
+- Add Time field to the Log record.
+- Correct migration SQL (thanks to Bill Moran) so that it
+ runs with PostgreSQL also.
+- Add spooling/despooling info in status output of SD.
+17Jul06
+- Spend a lot of time integrating mkcdrec with the rescue disk.
+- Add VOLMGMT message class for volume management messages (none yet).
+- Add CATALOG as a destination. It goes into the LOG table.
+- Implement the Log table in the DB.
+- Implement the Location Log table in the DB (for user use).
+- At Eric's request add a run_scripts() just after blast_data in
+ src/filed/job.c
+10Jul06
+- Add Enabled column to Location, correct some typos in DB schemas.
+- Correct bug I introduced into RunScripts enum.
+- Add log table to Catalog
+- Purge original job migrated if the migration terminates normally.
+- Cleanup purging of files/jobs so that it is done only in a
+ single subroutine.
+- Add new VOLMGMT message class.
+- Add Catalog message destination (user conf code remains to be written).
+09Jul06
+- Modify read_record and friends to properly deal with migration
+ needs.
+- Update debug code in read_record.
+08Jul06
+ ======================= Warning ==========================
+ Separate read and write storage in Jobs in the Director. This
+ is a major rewrite of some of the low level code and hence has
+ a high probability of introducing bugs.
+ ==========================================================
+
+- Move the job init code up to *before* the job is put into
+ the job queue (resource allocation queue). This permits the
+ job to establish whether it will read or write or do both.
+- Add name() methods to all the resource classes.
+- Implement separate read and write storage resource
+ allocation/deallocation in jobq.c
+
+ ======================= Warning ==========================
+ Implemented new method of getting the default Storage from the Media
+ record rather than from the MediaType for restore. As a fall
+ back, if no Storage is defined, use the MediaType. This
+ eliminates most all prompts if there are multiple MediaTypes
+ used. This is an important and fundamental change.
+ ==========================================================
+
+- Add more detail (Storage, Device) to list of volumes printed
+ for restore.
+- More code in migrate. In particular start multiple jobs if
+ migrating a volume.
+- Probably overkill, but ensure that the bsr is unique even within a
+ job in FD and SD.
+- Rework bsys.c drop() so that it now should work as expected.
+- Update a bunch of old copyrights -- particularly in .h files.
+- Remove src/lib/bshm.c/h
+05Jul06
+- Migration fixes
+04Jul06
+ ======================= Warning ==========================
+ All hash codes in the database are now kept in world
+ compatible base64 format (no = filling). This means that
+ all FileSets will be updated and if you are running
+ verify jobs, you must do an InitCatalog.
+ Authentication uses the new algorithm, but should be
+ backward compatible with 1.38.x
+ ===========================================================
+
+- Modify the authentication routines so that the 1.39.15 Director
+ always runs with the compatible binary to base64 code (same as
+ the rest of the world). It will however detect if an SD or
+ FD is running the old code and if that is the case, will use
+ the old algorithm for authentication. However, all consoles must
+ use the compatible algorithm, and all data entered into the database
+ (all hash signatures, MD5, SHA1, ..., and all FileSet hashes) will
+ use the compatible algorithm.
+- Rename the cram_md5 routine names to be slightly more appropriate
+ to what they are doing (challenge and respond).
+- Robert committed his #ifdef and header cleanup.
+30Jun06
+- Fix a complier warning in files/backup.c
+- Cleanup NOT NULL vs DEFALT 0 in database creation.
+- Tweak btape.
+- Robert committed his low impact changes.
+- I removed a size_t from the jcr.h definition.
+- Update the tape regression scripts (still to be tested).
+- Add gcc and gcc-c++ requires to srm as suggested by a user.
+- Require done or quit to exit from in memory tree restore.
+26Jun06
+- Write install/uninstall of new manpages. There are now a
+ pile of man pages. Some of which need a lot of work.
+
+ ======================= Warning ==========================
+ 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.
+ ==========================================================
+
+- Add complete text of GPL to LICENSE.
+- Implement job report that indicates where Storage and Pool
+ came from -- with overrides and Pool storage and NextPool,
+ it is all very complicated.
+- Create a few common subroutines for backup.c and migrate.c
+- Eliminate warning messages from tray-monitor.c
+25Jun06
+- Apply fix for scheduler for missing unlock_jobs().
+- Clean out autoconf caches before rebuilding configure
+- Fix the FreeBSD pthreads lib define updated by Dan.
+- Add missing semicolon in src/console/console.c
+- Add Robert's enhanced version of build-win32-cross-tools
+ as well as his patch file.
+- Note, the new gcc options are likely to break building of
+ wx-console or the tray-monitor ...
+24Jun06
+- Implement Robert's suggestion to suppress printing compile lines.
+- Detect GCC correctly (I hope)
+- If using GCC (actually g++) add the following compiler flags
+ -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti
+
+ ===================== Warning =============================
+ Turn on new bsnprintf() code. This could cause print output
+ to look different.
+ ===========================================================
+
+- Fix crypto when not using openssl. I previously overlooked this.
+- Eliminate crypto type punning problems by eliminating void * and
+ using uint8_t * instead.
+- Harden authentication failure in FD by single threading errors
+ and forcing a 6 second wait.
+
+ ===================== Warning =============================
+ Removed "Accept Any Volume" directive.
+ ===========================================================
+
+- Major cleanup and simplification of regress using shell functions
+ (more tests to be converted to new format)
+- Add detection of 64 bit Irix as indicated by user.
+- Increment catalog database id from 9 to 10.
+- Add a few of the new database fields to the various C++
+ structures.
+- Implement code to fill in the most important new fields (e.g.
+ Media Enable).
+- Ensure that most of the new fields are in create/get/insert/update.
+ More work to be done.
+22Jun06
+- Update some very old licenses in src/cats.
+- 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.
+- Delete mac_record subroutines.
+- Add new table values to create/update/get routines as appropriate.
+- Update the update_tables and make_tables scripts.
+- Make a first cut in using a union where multiple pointers (actually
+ pointers to pointers) are stored.
+- Make some changes to base64.c suggested by Robert and others and add
+ a small amount of documentation.
+- Add some changes suggested by Peter for Solaris (bregex...)
+- Make runscript.h always built because it needs to be pulled into
+ more places. In particular its RES was left out of a union.
+- Renumber the enum{} list in runscript.h to avoid starting from zero.
+ This makes it slightly easier to detect uninitialized variables.
+14Jun06
+- Remove xpg4 lib from FreeBSD build as it is no longer needed and
+ sometimes creates install problems.
+- Change a couple of %T in strftime to %H:%M:%S as seen in Robert
+ Nelson's code. More to do.
+- Convert a few store_bit to store_bool in filed_conf.c.
+- DVD tweak to block.c as supplied by Uwe Muessel.
04Jun06

Pool resource is not found. This previously caused Volumes
to be labeled as cleaning tapes.
-- Small updates to projects file.
+- Small updates to projects.
+27May06
+- Add Eric Bollengier patch for new RunScript directive. It breaks
+ compatibility between dird and fd.
26May06

+- Integrate manpages contributed by Jose Luis.
- Update projects file.
+- Add manpages Makefile.in to configure.in
+- Remove installation of bacula.8 in scripts directory.
24May06
+- Implement 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).
+
+ Recent versions of the Linux kernel and glibc have support for it (the
+ glibc support being mostly copying the O_NOATIME definition to
+ bits/fcntl.h). If there's no support for it on the kernel, trying to use
+ it does nothing (since the kernel ignores unknown flags).
+
+ If the kernel has support for it, trying to use it either works, fails
+ silently (mostly in remote filesystems), or returns errno=EPERM (if you
+ are not either the owner of the file or root). A simple way to prevent the
+ failure is to open the file without the flag and set it later with
+ fcntl(F_SETFL), ignoring any EPERM errors.
- Applied patch posted by Jaime Ventura to bug #570 to correct failure
of restarted jobs to complete (due to a destroyed pthreads conditional
variable used by the message thread).
of incorrect MarkedId.
- Apply patch from adioso bug #616 to correct text in manual (replace
Director with File daemon).
+- Rework a few of the zlib changes so that they build properly.
+

+30Apr06
+- Reloading a bad configuration file doesn't kill director any more.
+ Thanks to fix from Eric Bollengier.
+29Apr06
+- Fix problem of accents with new Win32 code.
+- Integrate Howard's VSS patch. Tweak it a bit. VSS now
+ works in the MinGW build with the exception that there
+ is a problem with accented characters -- i.e. there is
+ some mapping problem with wide characters.
+- The code no longer compiles with Microsoft VC++.
+28Apr06
+- Start implementing Christopher's St.Bernard code.
+- Add Christopher's mods for opening files.
+- Strip \r \n from Win32 error messages (Christopher)
+- Add more info about Win32 system if unknown (Christopher)
+- Use bstrn(cpy, cat) routines to avoid overrun in compat.cpp

- Add back ua_label barcode fix from Rufolf Cejka.
+- Integrate the majority of the Mingw cross-tools submission

+- More work on migration.
+- Restore non-compatible base64 coding to permit compatibility.
- Display heap stats in Storage daemon without debug level.
22Apr06

command in restore. This gives the user a better idea of what
the newest file really is. This fixes bug #574. The fix
was suggested by the user.
+- Implement a compatible version of base64. This permits external
+ programs to duplicate Bacula's base64 algorithm using standard
+ routines. This fixes bugs #296, and 565. Patch submitted by
+ author of bug #565.
+ ================= Note ========================
+ Previous Signatures stored in the database are no longer
+ compatible with this. The main downside is for Verify jobs,
+ and doing an InitCatalog run will fix the problem. Also, the
+ authentication between the deamons is changed, so all daemons
+ must be simultaneously upgraded.
+ ==============================================
+ If you don't like this fix, set:
+ const bool compatible = true;
+ to
+ const bool compatible = false;
+ in src/lib/base64.c
+20Apr06
+- Ensure that DB signature is never NULL.
+- Ensure that DB table names are not translated.
+- Fix scheduler to handle time skew (eg daylight savings).

+ with reload. Window is now milliseconds.
+19Apr06
+- 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.

- DIR. This fixes a bug with bad numbers of files on a tape
- when it filled as reported by Peter.
-- In release_device() do not update the DIR on the Volume
- info if the the information was already written at the
- end of the tape.
-28Mar05

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

-18Mar05
-- Fix more print_name()s for printing device name.
-- Modify open_dev to try 10 times every 6 seconds to
- open the device if it gets an I/O error (meaning no

-- Fix a rather ugly problem with the PoolId not getting
- passed correctly. Now the DIR passes the Pool name and
- Media Type to the SD, who passes them back when requesting
- the next Volume. The DIR then looks up the correct PoolId.
- This takes more time, but always works, AND allows wild
- card Media Types (i.e. the SD can decide).
-- The DIR <==> SD protocol has changed.
-
-Changes to 1.37.6:
-11Mar05

- Find_media catalog request.
-- Reworked the Device resource in the DIR. Eliminated num_waiting
- and use_count, but added max_writers, reserved, and PoolId.

-- Add since and cloned keywords to the Console run command
- to support cloning.
-- Implemented store_alist_str() to allow multiple string items
- to be specified in a .conf file.

-- Added edit_int64()
-- Reworked and tested a bit the htable routines.
-- Major changes to SD acquire.c -- DIR can now reserve devices. Needs
- lots of testing!!!!
-- Made a special state code for DVD -- this simplifies the logic

-- Backslashes are no longer permitted in File directives
- (typical error for Windows users), unless the string is
- enclosed in double quotes, in which case, the backslashes
- must be doubled.
-
-Major Changes for 1.38.11
-- Add test for IRIX64 as OS
-- Fix scheduler hang during clock shift (due to missing unlock())
-- Minor tweaks to bregex.c
-- Fix to block.c to correctly check for DVD number of parts.
-- Fix to dev.c to permit DVD seeking in spool file. Corrects
- label rewriting problems.
-- Clarify license for techlogs (GPL). I consider them "part" of
- the source code of Bacula.
-- Use FDL license for developer's manual, French translation, German
- translation, bimagemgr manuals (same as the main manual), and
- the web site.
-
-New features for 1.38.11:
-- None

-====================================================================
-
-Major Changes for 1.38.10:
-- This is a primarily a bug fix release, with the following bugs being
- resolved #570, 609, 611, 613, 614, 617 as well as other bugs not
- reported in the bugs database. See below for details.
-- The bconsole "reload" command should now work properly in virtually
- all situations thanks to the efforts of a number of people (Eric,
- Christopher, and myself).
-- There is an untested fix to eliminate the scheduling problems (either
- no job run or the same job run twice) during sudden clock shifts (daylight
- savings time change).
-- The manual has been released under the GNU Free Documentation License (FDL).
- The major difference is that this removes the prior restriction on
- commercial reproduction of the manual.
-- Fixed a race condition (thanks to Christopher) on dual processor machines
- that caused jobs to block when starting with the SD.
-
-New features for 1.38.10:
-- None
-
-Fixes for 1.38.10:
-08Jun06
-- Modify setting ACLs to suppress error message if the file is a
- symbolic link since the file linked to may not yet be created,
- and symbolic links really should not have attributes ...
-06Jun06
-- Complete implementation of acl.c error message during restore.
- During backups, errors getting acls are silently ignored, as was
- previously the case.
-04Jun06
-- Modify configure.in to check for typeof().
-- Better detection of postgresql installation if pg_conf works.
-- Fix RescheduleTimes = 0 bug (should not reschedule).
-- Down port from 1.39: fixes for reload, autochanger error messages,
- scheduler fixes for reload and day light savings change,
-01Jun06
-- Implement partial error messages for src/filed/acl.c
-- Fix return code to fail when doing update barcodes and
- Pool resource is not found. This previously caused Volumes
- to be labeled as cleaning tapes.
-- Small updates to projects file.
-26May06
-- Prevent DVD code from rewriting label if the device cannot be
- opened read/write.
-- Fix Dir/SD run race in migrate.c, verify.c, and restore.c
-- Update projects file.
-24May06
-- Applied patch posted by Jaime Ventura to bug #570 to correct failure
- of restarted jobs to complete (due to a destroyed pthreads conditional
- variable used by the message thread).
-- Fixed bug #619 where Bacula would not restart jobs with MaxRestartTimes
- set to zero.
-- Apply patch from John Goerzen bug #611 to fix bad manual links in the code.
-- Apply patch from Rudolf Cejka bug #614 to removed trailing
- colons in query.sql file.
-- Apply patch from Rudolf Cejka bug #613 to correct prunning of files
- not to create orphans.
-- Apply patch from Rudolf Cejka bug #617 to use mtime instead of ctime
- in restore long listing.
-- Apply patch from Rudolf Cejka bug #609 to use MarkId in verify.c instead
- of incorrect MarkedId.
-- Apply patch from adioso bug #616 to correct text in manual (replace
- Director with File daemon).
-21May06
-- Move DIR "run" command to SD before starting the message thread
- as suggested by Cristopher Hull to avoid a race deadlock from
- two threads using the bsock structure.
-- Modify LICENSE to correct some problems pointed out by Debian.
-05May06
-- Correct EOF with no \n lex.c problem.
-- Add additional INFO messages if autochanger cannot be used.
-- Add Eric Bollengier's lex error handler fix, which corrects most
- of the reload problems.
-
-
-New features for 1.38.9:
-- A "Dir Status" button in the Gnome console.
-
-Fixes:
-This is mainly a bug fix release containing a collection of
- minor fixes for 1.38.8.
-- Added code to strip backslashes from Windows filenames during
- a restore.
-- Corrected Win32 License to use the correct LICENSE file.
-- Corrected the buffer count and bytes reported in the heap
- statistics.
-- Fix a number of incorrect strings marked for translation, when
- they should not be (e.g. commands).
-- Fix StartTime bug reported for ClientRunBeforeJob and RunBeforeJob
- Patches supplied by user in bugs #608 and #599.
-- Use most recent of st_ctime and st_mtime in restore tree DIR
- listing. This fixes some problems with Win32 printing incorrect
- values.
-- Correct the clock shift comm time calculation between the DIR
- and the FD. It was added rather than subtracted.
-- Strip all backslashes in filenames to be restored on Win32
- machines -- the names should all be in Unix format, and if
- there are any backslashes it is most likely due to an improper
- FileSet definition, and the files will not otherwise be
- restorable.
-- Delete src/win32/License.txt
-- Modify installer to install LICENSE
-- Add back ua_label barcode fix from Rufolf Cejka.
-- Add 'Dir Status' button to the gnome console.
-- Display heap stats in Storage daemon without debug level.
-- Implement using pg_config for finding PostgreSQL files.
- Fixes bug #600. Patch supplied by user.
-- Remove -t option from mktemp in mtx_changer.in and use
- working directory. Fixes bug #578.
-- Update job start time after the any run before job so that
- files created by the script are only backed up once. Fixes
- bug #599.
-- Strip trailing newline only from filenames entered in
- the restore command when reading a file. This permits
- the user to enter filenames with trailing spaces. Fixes
- bug #549. The user supplied a patch that I modified slightly.
-- Use the most recent time (st_mtime, st_ctime) in the dir
- command in restore. This gives the user a better idea of what
- the newest file really is. This fixes bug #574. The fix
- was suggested by the user.
-- Remove the -f option from the chown in Makefile.in for more
- portability.
-- Change setting the group in Makefile.in to use chgrp for
- more portability.
-- Implement a Bacula read/write lock for Python rather
- than using the Python lock to avoid recursive problems.
-- Correct the uninstall directory names in filed/Makefile.in
- as reported by a user.
-
-
-New features for 1.38.8:
-- Regex, RegexFile, and RegexDir are now implemented in the
- Win32 FD. However, this is new experimental code that is
- largely untested. It may not work, it may cause memory
- leaks, or it may even crash the FD. Please test carefully
- before using.
-- On Linux/Unix systems there are two new programs, bregex
- and bwild that allow you to test regular expressions and
- wild-cards. These programs are installed with the other
- binaries. They are not available on Win32 systems.
-
-Fixes:
-- See below.
-
-New Features from pre-1.38.8 releases:
-- For autochanger get Scratch tape if in autochanger if
- no appendable Volumes are available.
-- New virtual disk autochanger. See scripts/disk-changer for
- documentation.
-- New optional Device resource directive in SD. 'Device Type =',
- which may have types: File, DVD, Tape, or FIFO. This can
- be useful for writing DVDs on FreeBSD where Bacula cannot
- correctly detect the DVD.
-- Faster restore tree building and uses less memory.
-- The command line keyword job (or jobname) now refers to the
- name of the job specified in the Job resource; jobid refers
- as before to the non-unique numeric jobid; and ujobid refers
- to the unique job identification that Bacula creates for each
- job.
-- The job report for Backups has a few more user friendly ways
- of displaying the information.
-- The wait command can now be made to wait for jobids.
-- New command line keywords are permitted in update volume. They
- are Inchanger=yes/no, slot=nn.
-- Add two new console commands: enable job=<job-name> and
- disable job=<job-name>. When a job is disabled, it will not
- be started by the scheduler. If you disable a job and restart
- Bacula or reload the .conf file, the job will be re-enabled.
-- Add a new Job resource directive "enable = yes|no".
-- There is a new program named regex in the tools directory that
- allows you to try regular expressions on your system.
-
-Major bug fixes:
-- Fix race condition in multiple-drive autochangers where
- both drives want the same Volume.
-- Do not allow opening default catalog for restricted console
- if it is not in ACL.
-- Writable FIFOs now work for restore.
-- ACLs are now checked in all dot commands.
-- Multiple drive autochangers and multiple different autochangers
- should now work correctly (no race conditions for Volume names,
- update slots use correct StorageId).
-- Fix bug where drive was always reserved if a restore job failed
- while in the reservation process.
-
-
-Minor bug fixes:
-- See below:
-
-Release 1.38.8 (14Apr06)
-14Apr06
-- Correct Makefile for Solaris /bin/sh
-- Correct mtx-changer.in for Solaris /bin/sh
-- Abort if a conf resource does not have a Name =
-12Apr06
-- Change the name of the regex program to bregex.
-- Add the bwild program to the tools directory. It is similar
- to the bregex program.
-- Implement create bregex.h and bregex.c in src/lib from the
- Python regexp program.
-- Use the new bregex.c to implement Regex expressions on Win32.
-11Apr06
-- Modify Makefile to change the permissions on Working Directory
- to 770 if the directory is created.
-- Do not fail the Makefile if changing the permissions or
- owner/group on WorkingDir fails.
-- Correct the old recycling algorithm so that Scratch Volumes
- are selected when looking for a Volume in the changer.
-- Correct a typo in the Verify SQL reported by Joe Park.
-10Apr06
-- Remove automatic case folding on Windows FDs. You must
- explictly use the 'Ignore Case = yes' option.
-- Remove the code added to 1.38.6 and 1.38.7 that pulls a
- scratch volume in an Autochanger early in the 'recycling'
- algorithm.
-08Apr06
-- Tweak license to include Microsoft restrictions.
-- Move mysql.reconnect to after real_connect(). Thanks to
- Frank Sweetser for the patch.
-- Disallow a backslash in a File = directive (Windows junk)
- unless the string is quoted.
-- Apply Eric's patch to ua_label.c so that daemon protocol
- is not translated.
-
-Release 1.38.7 (06Apr06) released 07Apr06
-06Apr06
-- Remove timed wait for VSS on Win2K3 as it is not yet
- implemented.
-- Correct bacula.in script to reference bacula-ctl-xx in the
- sysconfig directory rather than the bin directory.
-
-Release 1.38.6 (28Mar06) released 29Mar06
-28Mar06

+ Release Notes for Bacula 1.39.18
+
+ Bacula code: Total files = 448 Total lines = 150,330 (*.h *.c *.in)
+
+Warning for version 1.39.18 and greater:
+- If you have an old pre 1.39.18 database, you must upgrade it using
+ the upgrade_bacula_tables script.
+- You *should* be able to use 1.38.x FDs with version 1.39.18 Director
+ and SD providing you do not use any of the new features (runscript,
+ data encryption). However, we do not recommend this, nor guarantee
+ that it works.
+- 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. This means that all
+ FileSets will be updated, and if you are running verify jobs, you *must*
+ do an InitCatalog. Also, authentication uses the new algorithm by
+ default, but *should* accept connections from older components (FD) using
+ the old non-compatible algorithm.
+- 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.
+- The "Accept Any Volume" directive has been removed. It was never
+ implemented. Bacula will always accept any valid tape that is in
+ the drive for appending.
+
+
+New features for 1.39.18:
+- Bacula 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 in Win32 paths is now eliminated thanks
+ to Thorsted Engel.
+- 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.
+- SunOS ACLs should now work thanks to a patch from David Duchscher.
+- The database Id records should be 32/64 bit independent now. 64 bits
+ can be enabled by changing one define, but this has never been tested.
+- 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"
+ My use case is to be able to preview the next scheduled job (and the
+ next tape to be used) on fridays if there are no scheduled jobs during
+ the weekend. This patch was probably back ported to 1.38.x
+- Data encryption done in the Client is now supported due to code
+ submitted by Landon Fuller.
+- 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 mixted 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 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.
+- 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.
+- 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.
+- 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.
+- Integrate 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.
+- Fix 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.
+- Apply patch for enhancing wait from Eric Bollengier. On can now:
+ wait (wait for all jobs to stop)
+ wait jobid=nn
+ wait jobuid=unique id
+ wait job=job-name
+- 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). This is not well tested.
+- 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
-- Create datestyle fix for PostgreSQL. Fixes bug #574.
-- Correct editing of JobId from int to int64 in fd_cmds.c
-- Eliminate FileSet name race with bash_spaces() and multiple
- threads by bashing in a local.
-- Fix error return from 'use storage' to print a correct error
- message rather than nothing.
-- Correct false re-read last block error message when two jobs
- are simultaneously writing at the end of a tape.
-- Simplify exit conditions in the reserve.c code to avoid
- possible non-release of reservation_lock().
-- Suffle lock order in reserve to avoid deadlock between
- reservation lock and device mutex.
-- Add Thorsten's VSS timeout code to 1.38 branch.
-- Initialize jcr mutex before first use. Thanks to Thorsten for
- tracking this down for me !!!! as it broke the Win32 build.
-- Integrate addition of line count limitation to bsmtp -l from
- Sebastian Stark <stark at tuebingen.mpg.de>
-- Implement regex test program in tools directory.
-- Attempt to fix time problem with bsmtp with foreign langs.
-- Add strip_trailing_newline() submitted by user.
-
-Release 1.38.6 beta6 16Mar06
-- Fix bug #537 to allow arbitrary time to mount a volume for
- restore, if polling is turned on.
-- Disallow multiple storage specifications for a job. Should fix Arno's
- problem.
-- Add back a missing store of poolid in jr.poolid.
-- If dir_user or dir-group is specified in ./configure apply it to
- the working-dir. Fixes bug #533.
-- If rescheduling a job cancel the previous incarnation with the SD.
- Fixes bugs #566 and 557.
-- Fix bug #567 do_message() definition type conflict.
-
-Release 1.38.6 beta5 14Mar06
-- Add more jcr methods and make mutex and use_count private.
-- Create lock/unlock methods for jcr.
-- Fix PostgreSQL bug doing sql_data_seeek() by explicitly reading
- records to get to seek position.
-- Integrate patch from bug #561 to correct conio.c signal definitions.
-- Fix Rescheduling failed Jobs. Ensure that SD message thread
- terminates correctly by doing pthread_kill(). Do not destroy
- SD cond wait variable between executions of the job. Use local
- mutex for cond variable to avoid blocking jcr chain. Fix poor
- use of jcr use count in jobq.c for restarted jobs.
-- Fix obsolete usage of foreach_dlist() to use foreach_jcr() in
- lib/jcr.c -- prevents locking the jcr chaing.
-- Apply patch from bug #564, which corrects listing volumes with
- multiple autochangers. Apply same fix to next volume list.
-- Fix bug #562 where restore bootstrap file is not unique.
-- Use new routine lock_reservations() to lock the reservations
- system, and call it while looking for a volume in askdir.c.
- This could possibly fix bug #543.
-- Stop SD command loop if job is canceled.
-
-Release 1.38.6 beta3 4Mar06
-04Mar06
-- The po files should now be current.
-- Fix new sql_use_result() code to properly release the
- buffers in all cases.
-- Convert to using new Python class definitons with (object).
-- 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 listing by any of the above.
-- Add the user friendly job report code for reporting job elapsed time
- and rates with suffexes.
-- Add Priority and JobLevel as Python settable items.
-- Use TEMPORARY table creation where the table is created by
- Bacula.

-
-Release 1.38.6-beta2 25Feb06
-25Feb06
-- Add sql_use_result() define.
-
-Changes to 1.38.6-beta1
-- Don't open default catalog if not in ACL.
-- Add virtual disk autochanger code.
-- Add user supplied bug fix to make two autochangers work
- correctly using StorageId with InChanger checks.
-- Correct new/old_jcr confusion in copy_storage().
-- Remove & from Job during scan in msgchan.c -- probably
- trashed the stack.
-- When getting the next Volume if no Volume in Append mode
- exists and we are dealing with an Autochanger, search
- for a Scratch Volume.
-- Check for missing value in dot commands -- bug fix.
-- Fix bug in update barcodes command line scanning.
-- Make sure Pool Max Vols is respected.
-- Check that user supplied a value before referencing
- it in restore -- pointed out by Karl Hakimian.
-- Add Karl Hakimian's table insert code.
-- Don't ask user to select a specific Volume when
- updating all volumes in a Pool.
-- Remove reservation if set for read when removing dcr.
-- Lock code that requests next appendable volume so that
- two jobs to get the same Volume at the same time.
-- Add new Device Type = xxx code. Values are file, tape,
- dvd, and fifo.
-- Preserve certain modes (ST_LABEL|ST_APPEND|ST_READ) across
- a re-open to change read/write permission on a device.
-- Correct a misplaced double quote in certain autochanger
- scripts.
-- Make make_catalog_backup.in a bit more portable.
-- Implement Karl Hakimian's sql_use_result(), which speeds
- up restore tree building and reduces the memory load.
-- Correct a number of minor bugs in getting a Volume from
- the Scratch Pool.
-- Implement additional command line options for update Volume.
-- Don't require user to enter a Volume name when updating
- all Volumes in a pool.
-
-Release 1.38.5 released 19Jan06:
-- Apply label barcodes fix supplied by Rudolf Cejka.
-- Modify standard rpm installation to set SD group to disk
- so that SD will by default have access to tape drives.
-- Allow users to specify user/group and start options
- for each daemon in /etc/sysconf/bacula file.
-
-Changes to 1.38.4 released 17Jan06:
-- The main changes are to the Director and the Storage daemon,
- thus there is no need to update your File daemons. Just the
- same, I do recommend running with the release 1.38.3 Win32
- FD or later.
-- 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, ...).
-- Add periodic (every 24 hours) garbage collection of memory
- pool by releasing free buffers.
-- Correct bug counting sized (for display only) in smartall.c
-- Print FD mempool stats if debug > 0 rather than 5.
-- Correct bug in alist.c that re-allocated the list if the
- number of items goes to zero.
-- Move the reservation system thread locking to the top level
- so that one job at a time tries all possible drives before
- waiting.
-- Implement a reservation 'fail' message queue that is built
- and destroyed on each pass through the reservation system.
- These messages are displayed in a 'Jobs waiting to reserve
- a drive' list during a 'status storage='. Note, multiple
- messages will generally print for each JobId because they
- represent the different problems with either the same drive
- or different drives. If this output proves too confusing
- of voluminous, I will display it only when debug level 1
- or greater is enabled in the SD.
-- 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.
-- During 'update slots' clear all InChanger flags where the
- StorageId is zero (old Media records).
-- Fix autochanger code to strip leading spaces from returned
- slots number. Remove bc from chio-changer.
-- Back port a bit of 1.39 crypto code to reduce diffs.
-- Fix first call to autochanger that missed close()ing the
- drive. Put close() just before each run_program(). Fixes
- Arno's changer bug.
-- Add PoolId to Job record when updating it at job start time.
-- Pull in more code from 1.39 so that there are fewer file
- differences (the new ua_dotcmds.c, base64.h, crypto.h
- hmac.c jcr.c (dird and lib) lib.h md5.h parse_conf.c
- util.c. Aside from ua_dotcmds.c these are mostly crypto
- upgrades.
-- Implement new method of walking the jcr chain. The
- incr/dec of the use_count is done within the walking
- routines. This should prevent a jcr from being freed
- from under the walk routines.
-
-
-Changes to 1.38.3 released 05Jan06:
-- This is mainly a bug release fix. In addition, the multiple drive
- reservation algorithm has been rewritten.
-- In addition, the method of handling waiting for tapes to be
- mounted and the mount messages has been modified.
- (the above two items are a potential source of problems).
-- Simplify code in askdir.c that waits for creating an appendable
- volume so that it can handle multiple returns from the wait code.
-- Modify the wait code to permit multiple returns.
-- Return a zero when 'autochanger drives' is called and
- it is not an autochanger.
-- Make rewind_dev() a method taking a DCR as an argument.
- This permits closing and reopening the drive if the
- rewind fails as happens if the drive was loaded while the
- file descriptor was open. This refreshes the file descriptor.
-- Remove the ST_OPENED flag and always rely on fd < 0 for knowing
- if the device is open or not. This should eliminate
- Arnos problem.
-- Return error if reserve cannot find at least one suitable device.
-- Make wait_for_sysop() return correct state information.
-- Fix Win32 state file problem. write was not using compat
- code. This should fix bug #500.
-- Modify gui on command to set only GUI mode and not batch.
-- Modify .messages command to always print messages regardless
- of the mode.
-- If GUI mode is on, suppress automatic printing of
- You have messages.
-- Modify restore command in wx-console to set gui on and to use
- only .messages instead of messages. Hopefully this fixes bug
- #514.
-- Implement load balancing code with multiple drive autochangers.
-- Rewrite reservation algorithm again. Rename variables to be
- more logical, add HEARTBEAT with Director, allow cancel of
- jobs stuck in reservation, add last resourt any_drive.
-- Fix seg fault if user labels a drive directly bug #513
-- Remove quotes around Version as it breaks things.
-- Merge in Aleksandar Milivojevic's mods to the spec file.
-- Apply sparse code fix for raw drives and fifos. Bug 506
-- Thorsten fixed Unicode cd problem with wx-console bug 505.
-- Correct reservation system to do a last ditch try
- for any mounted volume, then anyone anywhere.
-- Updates to ssh-tunnel from Joshua Kugler.
-- Added a report.pl program from Jonas Bjorklund.
-- Simplify the O_NONBLOCK open() code for tape drives,
- and always open nonblocking.
-- Do not wait for open() if EIO returned (shouldn't happen).
-- Eliminate 3 argument to tape open().
-- Correct the slot # edited in the 3995 Bad autochanger unload
- message.
-- With -S on bscan (show progress) do not divide by zero.
-- Make cancel pthread_cond_signal() pthread_cond_broadcast().
-- When dcr is freed, also broadcast dev->wait_next_vol signal.
-- Remove unused code in wait_for_device.
-- Make wait_for_device() always return after 60 seconds of wait.
-- Use localhost if no network configured
-- Eliminated duplicate MaxVolBytes in cat update -- bug 509.
-- Update specs to include mysql4 define.
-- Return rec->FileIndex in dcr->VolLastIndex for normal
- and partial records in read_record(). This allows bscan
- to get FileIndex at EOT correct.
-- Fix butil.c to correctly set dcr -- fixes seg fault in bls.
-- Apply patch supplied by user (slightly modified) to fix
- correct detection of holes in block devices and FIFOs.
- Bug # 506.

-
-Major Changes in 1.38:
-- Fixed out of order Volumes in restore.
-- Improved algorithm for reserving drives in multiple drive
- autochangers. Autochange users MUST use the new Autochanger
- resource in the Storage daemon.
-- There is a new database format that is not compatible
- with previous databases. You must upgrade if converting
- from 1.36.x. No changes from version 1.37.30.
-- The Director, Storage daemon, and File daemons are
- Deamons are not compatible with prior versions.
- All FDs must be upgraded at the same time.
-- Support for ANSI/IBM labels.
-- Faster database inserts due to combining the MD5/SHA1 into
- the attributes record, eliminating one INSERT/file backed up.
-- Python Event support has been added. See below for
- configuration and details. The implementation is somewhat minimal,
- so the functionality is not complete. The Python interface
- has not been extensively tested, so please consider it BETA.
-- DVD writing support, using parts, and some new directives in
- the Device resource of the Storage configuration file thanks
- to Nicolas Boichat. Please note that this code is still
- BETA and should be carefully tested before using in
- production.
-- Seven new options keywords in a FileSet resource:
- ignorecase, fstype, hfsplussupport, wilddir, wildfile, regexdir,
- and regexfile thanks to Pruben Guldberg). See below for details.
-- Restore of all files for a Job or set of jobs even if the file
- records have been removed from the catalog.
-- Restore of a directory (non-recursive, i.e. only one level).
-- Support for TLS (ssl) between all the daemon connections thanks
- to Landon Fuller.
-- Any Volume in the Pool named Scratch may be reassigned to any
- other Pool when a new Volume is needed.
-- You may clone a Job and thus write (almost) the same data
- to multiple Volumes simultaneously (see below). Actually,
- any Job may start any other Job with this mechanism, so it
- also be used to group jobs.
-- Unicode filename support for Win32 (thanks to Thorsten Engel)
-- Volume Shadow Copy support for Win32 thus the capability to
- backup exclusively opened files (thanks to Thorsten Engel).
- A VSS enabled Win32 FD is available. You must explicitly
- turn on VSS with 'Enable VSS = yes' in your FileSet resource.
-- New manual format with an index (thanks to Karl Cunningham).
-- New Web site format (thanks to Michael Scherer).
-- SQLite3 support.
-- Web-bacula, previously a separate project by Juan Luis Frances,
- is now included in the Bacula GUI release. This is a management
- level tool for reporting the state of Bacula jobs.
-- The code is now Internationalized so that it can be localized
- in native languages. Thanks to Nicolas Boichat.
-
-New Directives:
-- New Job directive 'Prefer Mounted Volumes = yes|no' causes the
- SD to select either an Autochanger or a drive with a valid
- Volume already mounted in preference. If none is available,
- it will select the first available drive.
-- New Run directive in Job resource of DIR. It permits
- cloning of jobs. To clone a copy of the current job, use
- Run = 'job-name level=%l since=\'%s\''
- Note, job-name is normally the same name as the job that
- is running but there is no restriction on what you put. If you
- want to start the job by hand and use job overrides such as
- storage=xxx, realize that the job will be started with the
- default storage values not the overrides. The level=%l guarantees
- that the chosen level of the job is the same, and the since=...
- ensures that the job uses *exactly* the same time/date for incremental
- and differential jobs. The since=... is ignored when level=Full.
- A cloned job will not start additional clones, so it is not possible
- to recurse.
-- New Options keywords in a FileSet directive (backported to 1.36.3):
- - WildDir xxx
- Will do a wild card match against directories (files will not
- be matched).
- - WildFile xxx
- Will do a wild card match against files (directories will not
- be matched).
- - RegexDir xxx
- Will do a regular expression match against directories (files
- will not be matched).
- - RegexFile xxx
- Will do a regular expression match against files( directories
- will not be matched).
- - IgnoreCase = yes | no
- Will ignore case in wild card and regular expression matches.
- This is handy for Windows where filename case is not significant.
- - FsType = string
- where string is a filesystem type: ext2, jfs, ntfs, proc,
- reiserfs, xfs, usbdevfs, sysfs, smbfs, iso9660. For ext3
- systems, use ext2. You may have multiple fstype directives
- and thus permit multiple filesystem types. If the type
- specified on the fstype directive does not match the
- filesystem for a particular directive, that directory will
- not be backed up. This directive can be used to prevent
- backing up non-local filesystems.
- - HFS Plus Support = yes | no
- If set, Mac OS X resource forks will be saved and restored.
-- Label Type = ANSI | IBM | Bacula
- Implemented in Director Pool resource and in SD Device resource.
- If it is specified in the SD Device resource, it will take
- precedence over the value passed from the Director to the SD.
-- Check Labels = yes | no
- Implemented in the SD Device resource. If you intend to read
- ANSI or IBM labels, this *must* be set. Even if the volume
- is not ANSI labeled, you can set this to yes, and Bacula will
- check the label type.
-- Scripts Directory = <directory> name. Defines the directory from
- which Bacula scripts will be called for events. In fact, Bacula
- appends this name to the standard Python list of search directories,
- so the script could also be in any of the Python system directories.
-- In FileSet, you can exclude backing up of hardlinks (if you have
- a lot, it can be very expensive), by using:
- HardLinks = no
- in the Options section. Patch supplied by David R Bosso. Thanks.
-- MaximumPartSize = bytes (SD, Device resource)
- Defines the maximum part size.
-- Requires Mount = Yes/No (SD, Device resource)
- Defines if the device require to be mounted to be read, and if it
- must be written in a special way. If it set, the following directives
- must be defined in the same Device resource:
- + Mount Point = directory
- Directory where the device must be mounted.
- + Mount Command = name-string
- Command that must be executed to mount the device. Before the command
- is executed, %a is replaced with the Archive Device, and %m with the
- Mount Point.
- + Unmount Command = name-string
- Command that must be executed to unmount the device. Before the
- command is executed, %a is replaced with the Archive Device, and
- %m with the Mount Point.
- + Write Part Command = name-string
- Command that must be executed to write a part to the device. Before
- the command is executed, %a is replaced with the Archive Device, %m
- with the Mount Point, %n with the current part number (0-based),
- and %v with the current part filename.
- + Free Space Command = name-string
- Command that must be executed to check how much free space is left
- on the device. Before the command is executed, %a is replaced with
- the Archive Device, %m with the Mount Point, %n with the current part
- number (0-based), and %v with the current part filename.
-- Write Part After Job = Yes/No (DIR, Job Resource, and Schedule Resource)
- If this directive is set to yes (default no), a new part file will be
- created after the job is finished.
-- A pile of new Directives to support TLS. Please see the TLS chapter
- of the manual.
-
-New Commands:
-- 'python restart' restarts the Python interpreter. Rather brutal, make
- sure no Python scripts are running. This permits you to change
- a Python script and get Bacula to use the new script.
-
-New configure options:
-- --with-libintl-prefix for defining alternate locations for
- the NLS internationalization libraries. Not normally required.
-- --datadir for defining where the language files will be installed
- required only if you do not want the default /usr/share.
-
-Items to note!!!
-- The Storage daemon now keeps track of what tapes it is using
- (was not the case in 1.36.x). This means that you must be much
- more careful when removing tapes and putting up a new one. In
- general, you should always do a 'unmount' prior to removing a
- tape, and a 'mount' after putting a new one into the drive.
-- If you use an Autochanger, you MUST update your SD conf file
- to use the new Autochanger resource. Otherwise, certain commands
- such as 'update slots' may not work.
-- You must add --with-python=[DIR] to the configure command line
- if you want Python support. Python 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 should be
- automatically detected if in the standard place.
-- When linking with --with-python, there are a few warnings that
- can be ignored.
-- You must either create a new catalog database or upgrade your
- old database. After installation, run from your scripts
- directory:
-
- ./upgrade_bacula_tables
-
- You can also find this script in the <bacula-source>/src/cats
- directory.
-- The Director, Storage daemon, and File daemons are
- Deamons are not compatible with prior versions.
- All FDs must be upgraded at the same time.
-- You must add --with-openssl to the configure command line if
- you want TLS communications encryption support.
-- Disk seeking during restores does not yet work correctly in
- all cases, so it is turned off.
-- Note, with gcc (GCC) 4.0.1 20050727 (Red Hat 4.0.1-5) on an
- AMD64 CPU running 64 bit CentOS4, there is a compiler bug that
- generates bad code that causes Bacula to segment fault.
- Typically you will see this in the Storage daemon first. The
- solution is to compile Bacula ensuring that no optimization is
- turned on (normally it is -O2).
- This same compiler bug has been reported and confirmed with
- gcc (GCC) 4.0.2 20050901 (prerelease) (SUSE Linux) running on
- an AMD64 CPU. This for the moment, I would recommend that all
- users of GCC 4.0.1 or greater turn off all optimization when
- compiling.
-
-
-Other Items Fixed:
-- Security fixes for temp files created in mtx-changer, during
- ./configure, and during making of Rescue disk.
-- A new script, dvd-handler, in the scripts directory,
- which is designed to be used as parameters to Write Part Command and
- Free Space Command. They need the dvd+rw-tools to be installed
- (http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/) AND, the growisofs
- program must be patched using the
- <bacula-source>/patches/dvd+rw-tools-5.21.4.10.8.bacula.patch
- You must have Python installed to run the scripts.
-- Part files support: File volumes can now be split into multiple
- files, called 'parts'.
-- For the details of the Python scripting support, please see the new
- Python Scripting chapter in the manual.
-- The default user/group for the Director and Storage daemon installed
- by rpms is bacula/bacula, thus you may need to add additional permissions
- to your database, or modify the permissions of the tape drive. If
- all else fails, change to using user=root. However, it is more secure
- to use user=bacula.
+- Remove automatic case folding on Windows FDs. You must
+ explictly 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.
+ - Fix for security failure in chdir on Win32.
+ - Add CreateDirectoryA/W win32 API entry points.
+- Add /silent option to Win32 FD for Install/Remove service.
+ programs to duplicate Bacula's base64 algorithm using standard
+ routines. This fixes bugs #296, and 565. Patch submitted by
+ author of bug #565.
+- Switch the Win32 build from using Microsoft C++ to using mingw32
+ cross-compiling. The inital 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, ...
+ Finally, he also ported the Directory and the Storage daemon to Win32.
+- Fixes to reloading the Dir conf file from Eric Bollengier and Christopher
+ Hull.
+- Modify LICENSE to correct some problems pointed out by Debian.
+ Implement 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).
+
+ Recent versions of the Linux kernel and glibc have support for it (the
+ glibc support being mostly copying the O_NOATIME definition to
+ bits/fcntl.h). If there's no support for it on the kernel, trying to use
+ it does nothing (since the kernel ignores unknown flags).
+
+ If the kernel has support for it, trying to use it either works, fails
+ silently (mostly in remote filesystems), or returns errno=EPERM (if you
+ are not either the owner of the file or root). A simple way to prevent the
+ failure is to open the file without the flag and set it later with
+ fcntl(F_SETFL), ignoring any EPERM errors.
+- Implement a pile of new man pages contributed by Jose Tallon.
+- Implement a number of user supplied patches for DVD writing.
+- Add Eric Bollengier patch for new RunScript directive.
+- 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. This could cause print output
+ to look different.
+- 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.
+- Add Catalog message destination in Messages resource that puts the
+ job report in the Log database table.
+- Spend a lot of time integrating mkcdrec with the rescue disk.
+- Add spooling/despooling info in status output of SD.
+- Add Comment field to llist of a volume.
+- Allow true/false in some yes/no questions.
+- Implement update volume enable=(on|off|true|false|archived|0|1|2)
