BackupPC 4.4.0 Release Notes
- any full/filled backup can be marked for keeping, which prevents any expiry or deletion
- any backup can be annotated with a comment (eg, “prior to upgrade of xyz”)
- added metrics CGI (thanks to @jooola) that replaces RSS and adds Prometheus support
- tar XferMethod now supports xattrs and acls
- rsync XferMethod now correctly supports xattrs on directories and symlinks
- nightly pool scanning now verifies the md5 digests of a configurable fraction of pool files
- code runs through perltidy so format is now uniform (thanks to @jooola, with help from @shancock9 and @moisseev)
Changes
- Merged pull requests #325, #326, #329, #330, #334, #336, #337, #338, #342, #343, #344, #345, #347, #348, #349
- Filled/Full backups can now be marked as “keep”, which excludes them from any expiry/deletion. Also, a backup-specific comment can be added to any backup to capture any important information about that backup (eg, “pre-upgrade of xyz”).
- Added metrics CGI, which adds Prometheus support and replaces RSS, by @joola (#344, #347)
- Tar XferMethod now supports xattrs and acls; xattrs should be compatible with rsync XferMethod, but acls are not
- Sort open directories to top when browsing backup tree
- Format code using perltidy, and included in pre-commit flow, by @joola (#334, #337, #342, #343, #345). Thanks to @joola and @shancock9 (perltidy author) for significant effort and support, plus improvements in perltidy, to make this happen.
- Added $Conf{PoolNightlyDigestCheckPercent}, which checks the md5 digest of this fraction of the pool files each night.
- $Conf{ClientShareName2Path} is saved in backups file and the share to client path mapping is now displayed when you browse a backup so you know the actual client backup path for each share, if different from the share name
- configure.pl now checks the per-host config.pl in a V3 upgrade to warn the user if $Conf{RsyncClientCmd} or $Conf{RsyncClientRestoreCmd} are used for that host, so that the new settings $Conf{RsyncSshArgs} and $Conf{RsyncClientPath} can be manually updated.
- Fixed host mutex handling for dhcp hosts; shifted initial mutex requests to client programs
- Updated webui icon, logo and favicon, by @moisseev (#325, #326, #329, #330)
- Added $Conf{RsyncRestoreArgsExtra} for host-specific restore settings
- Language files are now all use utf8 charsets
- Bumped required version of BackupPC::XS to 0.62 and rsync-bpc to 3.0.9.15.
- Ping failure message only written to stdout only if verbose
- BackupPC_backupDelete removes partial v3 backup in HOST/new; fixes #324 reported by @thalueng
- BackupPC_backupDelete adds -f option to over keep, if set
- BackupPC_nightly: change -f to -F when running BackupPC_refCountUpdate during fsck
- Better formatting of eval cmd result in cmdSystemOrEvalLong()
- Remove zero count entries in per-backup and per-host poolCnt files
- Add a fake version parameter to the CSS URL to overcome caching
- Fixed ALRM typo in BackupPC_dump, by @rhansen (#348)
- Fixed command name in error message in BackupPC_archive, by @rhansen (#349)
- lib/BackupPC/Xfer/Rsync.pm skips adding –iconv option when $conf->{ClientCharset} is utf8 or empty, to avoid a long-standing rsync bug
- lib/BackupPC/Xfer/Rsync.pm provides a more informative warning when the client rsync exits with an IO error, and also includes the IO error in the xferErr count
- lib/BackupPC/Xfer/Smb.pm recognizes NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE error
- Increase text length in config editor fields, by @moisseev (#336)
- Typo fix in config.pl, by @cure (#338)
- Minor documentation updates, removing old SourceForge links
