Technical notes on version 1.1-14Oct 14 October 2001 Kern Sibbald General: - Lots of changes to the documentation. - Better handling of tapes at EOM. - Cancelling jobs should now work better (not tested). - Labelling of tapes is now done in the Console program by preference. - Numerous improvements to the Console user interface mainly by presenting a list of choices. This needs to be implemented in more places. - Created a smtp program that will send email. Changes submitted this submission: - Major reorganization and improvement of the documentation. This is only a drop in the bucket, much more remains to be done. - Fixed bstrdup() so that ophaned buffers will point to the original code rather than the bstrdup() subroutine. - Added an MD5 signature to FileSets so that any change in the file set will force a Full save. - Added a LabelDate to the Media record so that in code to be implemented, we can ensure that a tape is labelled only once. - Modified virtually all the Bacula internal database routines to use binary read/writes rather than sprintf and sscanf. This simplifies the code, but makes the database byte order dependent. I added a lot of additional functionality and did quite a bit of general cleanup. The Job database still uses printf/sscanf. - Added code that creates a FileSet record that is unique by its name and its MD5 signature. This ensures that if you change the FileSet, a new FileSet record will be created and a Full save will be forced. - Implement default values for integer and 64 bit configuration variables. - Massive changes to the User Agent (console program). Separated the code into multiple files, added code that prompts the user and provides a list of appropriate responses. This new code is now used in many places -- more work to be done. More testing of the code is necessary, I have not yet tested all possible paths where I changed the code. - Implemented a simple smtp program which sends email. - Implemented an MailCommand configuration record for the Message resource, which specifies the mail program to be used. - Implemented multiple email addresses on a single record. Not tested. - Quite a lot of cleanup of handling Volume names in the Storage daemon. Corrected a number of problems with End of Medium handling and labelling of tapes. Corrected problems in cancelling a program. - Removed the code in message.c that automatically marked jobs in error when an M_FATAL message is sent. It is a good idea, but a bit premature because a thourough audit of error messages is needed first.
