General:
- Bacula backups now run up to 12 times faster than version 1.24
- Bacula can run multiple simultaneous Jobs.
- Had to turn off TRANSACTIONS in SQLite because it doesn't work
with multiple simultaneous jobs (I'm working on this).
- Added a better Job printout for Restore Jobs.
- Added a save/restore Rate to backup and restore jobs. This
does not yet subtract out operator wait time so it will be
underestimated it the Job waits on the tape (mount/label).
- Fixed a major bug caused by free()ing a buffer twice in
the Restore code. This made the SD more or less useless after
any restore Job. Arrggg!
- DIR - SD protocol changed, both must be updated at the same time.
- DIR - FD protocol changed in upward compatible way. Upgrade of
FD not required, but recommended.
Changes submitted this submission:
- Added bell to "make" when errors are detected.
- Changed default compile option from -g to -g -O2
- Additional documentation as usual -- much based on questions or
feedback from users. Thanks.
- Fixed example config files to use new syntax and to have a
Restore Job.
- Define ETIME to ETIMEOUT for Irix
- Added JCR filed to DB structure permitting direct printing error
messages from within the Database subroutines.
Some error messages may be printed twice as a consequence.
When I see them or someone reports them, I will remove the double.
- Added JCR to the bsock structure. This allows direct printing
of network errors from within the network code.
- Made most "trivial" debug messages have level 100 or greater. This
allows for easier debugging of new code using the range below 100.
- Began replacing all Emsg() with Jmsg() using a NULL as the JCR in
Jmsg() is the same as Emsg().
- Fixed several crashes in the Director because of malformed config files.
- Added SpoolAttributes to Job resource.
- Pass CatalogFiles to SD. If set to no, the attributes are dropped
within the SD rather than being sent to the DIR.
- Cleaned up a number of information/error messages in user interface.
This includes eliminating the "pretty please" response in favor of
"yes/no" to delete volumes and pools.
- Cleaned up quite a number of uninitialized variables reported when going
to -O2, most were harmless, but a couple could cause problems.
- The cd command in restore was not working correctly (it didn't allow some
legal cds).
- Fixed a segmentation violation in the directory tree handling code in
the restore command.
- Handle a few error conditions in the restore command better.
- Permit "Where" to be set to nul in modification of a run command.
- Clarified the error message for Verify if an InitCatalog has not previously
been done -- thanks Chuck.
- Add MaximumConcurrentJobs to FD.
- Added code to mem_pool to die if a buffer is released twice.
- Lots of work done on SD for multiple simultaneous jobs. Split device.c
into device.c, mount.c and acquire.c
- Started writing new lock code for SD, but may back it out -- needs more
thought. Current code works, but is too complicated. Maybe can simplify it.
- Cleaned up the SD tools code quite a bit. Added bootstrap to all tools.
- Ensure that tape session labels are not split across two blocks. This makes
reading them back much easier.
- Fixed another restore bug concerning tape labels on multi-volume saves.
