Wed Sep 28 11:37:23 CEST 2016 - jsmeix@suse.de

- Update to GitHub master from Wed Sep 28 11:29:55 2016 +0200
  with latest Git commit 35975dfbaa08978a91b8591073d8dc3821a79a4c
  that fixes the reboot halt poweroff and shutdown commands
  that did no longer work in the rear recovery system
  with newest systemd/systemctl (e.g. in SLE12-SP2 and FC24),
  see https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/953 (bsc#1001629).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Sep 26 11:51:53 CEST 2016 - jsmeix@suse.de

- Update to GitHub master from Fri Sep 23 12:37:17 2016 +0200
  with latest Git commit 6c31e79dc6a21b891ee644f3ffacd22761b698f9.
  This is mainly a cosmetical and documentation update.
  It is primarily intended to make a better (first) impression.
  It fixes misspelled forms of 'SUSE' and 'Relax-and-Recover' and
  has more clear documentation regarding "BACKUP_TYPE=incremental"
  (because our automated "sle-changelog-checker" requires a
   SUSE-specific ID - voila - here you are: bsc#999227).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Sep 20 13:21:17 CEST 2016 - jsmeix@suse.de

- Update to GitHub master from Tue Sep 20 12:46:33 2016 +0200
  with latest Git commit 77b346ccce00b1a7dcda5e8b236ca0dd66f49af3.
  It contains Git commit 90a03db45b27a4cae067af4127d3f4c0e7d0f30e
  that added SLE12-SP2-btrfs-example.conf that contains
  a POST_RECOVERY_SCRIPT that implements btrfs quota setup
  for snapper if that is used in the original system,
  see https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/999 (bsc#999227).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Aug 18 15:27:02 CEST 2016 - jsmeix@suse.de

- Update to GitHub master from Wed Aug 17 15:01:46 2016 +0200
  with latest Git commit 86240b05983ffe33a936de966f145e118745899f.
  It contains Git commit a4443a53dcb2399b8f1d04d6c6873944ab5597ed
  that makes it working in general more fail-safe against wrong
  btrfs subvolumes on SLE12. Now snapper's own subvolumes and
  falsely created normal subvolumes below snapper's base subvolume
  are automatically excluded from being recreated by listing them
  only as comments in disklayout.conf during "rear mkbackup".
  Furthermore if such subvolumes are active in disklayout.conf
  (e.g. because the user has manually activated them) they are
  skipped during "rear recover" plus LogPrint info for the user,
  see https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/963. For example
  systemd may create such wrong btrfs subvolumes namely
  @/.snapshots/1/snapshot/var/lib/machines (cf. below) see
  http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2015-07/msg00591.html
  which was rediscovered as bsc#992573.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Aug  4 10:52:47 CEST 2016 - jsmeix@suse.de

- Update to GitHub master from Wed Aug 3 16:19:22 2016 +0200
  with latest Git commit 01f35154b35de0d4829cfe2a5502d4f839c27d45
  that should make 'rear recover' work on SLE12-SP2 with the
  default btrfs subvolume structure on SLE12-SP2 because at least
  the default btrfs subvolume structure on SLE12-SP2-beta5
  is not sufficiently backward compatible with the default btrfs
  subvolume structure on SLE12-SP1 (there is the additional btrfs
  normal subvolume @/.snapshots/1/snapshot/var/lib/machines), see
  https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/944 (see also bsc#990675).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue May 10 11:01:11 CEST 2016 - jsmeix@suse.de

- Update to GitHub master from Tue May 10 11:01:47 CEST 2016
  with Git commit bd3d2ac41c7ed04352abd28de16b9493aff40683
  that removed the outdated and leftover EXCLUDE_RECREATE from
  the btrfs example config files SLE12-SP1-btrfs-example.conf
  and SLE12-btrfs-example.conf because excluding btrfs subvolumes
  via EXCLUDE_RECREATE was only needed in our SLE12-specific
  RPM package "rear116" (with special adaptions for btrfs support)
  but it leads to falsely excluded btrfs subvolumes from
  the backup (and restore) for all newer rear versions
  (i.e. since rear 1.17), see the GitHub issue 821
  https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/821 in particular see
  https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/821#issuecomment-215071027
  (because our automated "sle-changelog-checker" requires a
   SUSE-specific ID - voila - here you are: bsc#946389).
  This means users who use btrfs and upgrade from our
  SLE12-specific RPM package "rear116" to a newer rear version
  must manually adapt their /etc/rear/local.conf file.
  This is a good example for what is documented in the section
  "Rear Version Updates" in our SLE12-HA manual and online at
  "Version upgrades with Relax-and-Recover (rear)" in
  https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Disaster_Recovery
  that reads (excerpt): "For each rear version upgrade and
  for each change of a software that is used by rear you must
  carefully and completely re-validate that your particular
  disaster recovery procedure still works for you."

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Apr 13 14:30:31 CEST 2016 - jsmeix@suse.de

- New package rear118a for SUSE Linux Enterprise (fate#319332).
  It is the upstream GitHub master from Wed Apr 13 14:00 CEST 2016
  (latest Git commit 11eb7d19e5484c19783b86a705bc3aeed34b250c)
  that is rear version 1.18 plus enhancements regarding ebiso
  mainly let rear determine EFI virtual disk size automatically
  (cf. https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/810).
  ebiso is used since rear version 1.18 for making a UEFI bootable
  rear recovery system ISO image on SUSE Linux Enterprise systems
  (see also bsc#931824).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Mar 22 10:36:19 CET 2016 - jsmeix@suse.de

  and SLE12-btrfs-example.conf are now provided in the
  upstream sources.
- SLE12-SP1-btrfs.patch and rear1172a-gpt_sync_mbr.patch
  are obsolete because it is now implemented in the upstream
  sources.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Nov  3 15:00:49 CET 2015 - jsmeix@suse.de

- Create a separate directory /usr/share/rear/conf/examples/ for
  example config files, see https://github.com/rear/rear/pull/681
  and install the SUSE example config files there - i.e.:
  /usr/share/rear/conf/examples/SLE11-ext3-example.conf
  /usr/share/rear/conf/examples/SLE12-btrfs-example.conf
  /usr/share/rear/conf/examples/SLE12-SP1-btrfs-example.conf

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Oct 28 15:27:59 CET 2015 - jsmeix@suse.de

- rear1172a-gpt_sync_mbr.patch adds support for the
  SUSE specific gpt_sync_mbr partitioning
  see https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/544
  (bsc#950610).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Oct 16 13:02:44 CEST 2015 - jsmeix@suse.de

- Enhanced SLE12-SP1-btrfs.patch so that for mounted btrfs
  subvolumes that have the 'no copy on write' attribute set
  those btrfs subvolumes are recreated with that attribute set
  (by using 'chattr' on the btrfs subvolume directory),
  see https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/556
  (bsc#946006 fate#318701).
- Enhanced SLE12-SP1-btrfs-example.conf so that also lsattr is
  in the recovery system (useful but not strictly required).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Oct  8 11:04:18 CEST 2015 - jsmeix@suse.de

- Version 1.17.2.a is rear 1.17.2 with SLE12-SP1-btrfs.patch that
  makes it work specifically for the default btrfs structure
  in SLE12-SP1, see https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/556
  (bsc#946006 fate#318701).
- SLE12-SP1-btrfs-example.conf is an example for SLE12-SP1
  with default btrfs subvolumes that gets installed
  as /usr/share/rear/conf/SLE12-SP1-btrfs-example.conf
- Warning for users who upgrade Relax-and-Recover (rear):
  Users who already use it must re-validate that their
  particular disaster recovery procedure still works.
  See in particular "Version upgrades" at
  http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Disaster_Recovery
  Automatic version upgrades are not possible in practice.
  The user must explicitly specify his intended rear version.
  For one product like SLE11 or SLE12 we provide several versions
  in parallel so that users where version N does not support their
  particular needs can upgrade to version M but on the other hand
  users who have a working disaster recovery procedure with
  version N do not need to upgrade. Therefore the package name
  contains the version and all packages conflict with each other
  to avoid that an installed version gets accidentally
  replaced with another version.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Sep  7 12:42:05 CEST 2015 - jsmeix@suse.de

- Update to version 1.17.2
  * Fixed the NTP startup script (issue #641)
  * Fixed the vfat label issue (issue #647)
  * Improved the DUPLICITY method with finding all required
    libraries and python scripts
  * Added the /run directory to the list of recreating missing
    directories (issue #619)
  * Fix issue with USB disk and rsync as internal backup
    program (issue #645)
  * Fix rsync restore: -anchored invalid rsync option (issue #642)
  * A new variable was introduced NSR_POOLNAME (issue #640)
  * Replaced almost all temporary files from /tmp/ to $TMP_DIR/
    (issue #607)
    Related to security recommendations for Fedora and RHEL:
    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1239009 (f22)
    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1238843 (rhel 7.2)
  * In script 27_hpraid_layout.sh added the missing
    HPSSACLI_BIN_INSTALLATION_DIR variable to the COPY_AS_IS
    array (issue #630)
  * Syslinux version > 5.00 is now supported (ISO and USB output)
    works on Debian 8, Ubuntu 15.04 (issue #624)
  * Bail out when syslinux/modules are not found in lib/
    bootloader-functions.sh (issues #467 and #596)
    You could also define a variable SYSLINUX_MODULES_DIR if rear
    cannot find it automatically (should not be necessary)
  * Support was added for SLES11 on PPC64 hardware
    (issues #616 and #628)
  * Support was added for new hardware - PPC64LE - RHEL
    and Ubuntu (issue # 627)
  * FIX the hashed password (SSH_ROOT_PASSWORD variable) and
    added a missing library libfreeblpriv3 (issue #560)
  * Insert a 3 seconds sleep after a volume group restauration
    to give udevd or systemd-udevd time to create needed devices
    (issue #608 and #617)
  * Variable MANUAL_INCLUDE=YES has been introduced to work with
    array BACKUP_PROG_INCLUDE (issue #597)
  * Add new variable NSR_DEFAULT_POOL_NAME (defaulting to Default)
    to use a different default pool name.
    Renamed the RETENTION_TIME variable to NSR_RETENTION_TIME
    (issue #640)
  * new document 10-integrating-external-backup.adoc which
    explains the steps to take for a new backup integration
    into rear
  * All AsciiDoc documentation changed extention
    from .txt to .adoc
- Known restrictions on openSUSE and SUSE Linux Enterprise
  (in general see https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Disaster_Recovery):
  * rear 1.17.2 will not work with default btrfs on SLES12-SP1
    because support for btrfs in rear explicitly excludes
    snapshot subvolumes but on SLES12-SP1 what is mounted
    at '/' will be a btrfs snapshot subvolume (issue #556)
  * rear 1.17.2 does not work with UEFI because of various
    different reasons (issues #588 #585 #583 #229 #214)
  * rear does not support partitions of type 'gpt_sync_mbr'
    aka. 'hybrid (synced) MBR' (issue #544)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

- Use "ExclusiveArch: %ix86 x86_64 ppc ppc64 ppc64le" instead
  of "BuildArch: noarch" in the spec file.
  rear contains only bash scripts plus documentation so that
  on first glance it could be "BuildArch: noarch" but actually
  it is not "noarch" because it only works on those architectures
  that are explicitly supported. Of course the rear bash scripts
  can be installed on any architecture just as any binaries can be
  installed on any architecture. But the meaning of architecture
  dependent packages should be on what architectures they will
  work. Therefore only those architectures that are actually
  supported are explicitly listed. This avoids that rear can
  be "just installed" on architectures that are actually
  not supported (e.g. ARM or IBM z Systems).
  Furthermore for some architectures it requires architecture
  dependent packages (like syslinux for x86 and x86_64)
  so that rear must be architecture dependent.
  See the GitHub issue https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/629

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jun 30 13:57:05 CEST 2015 - jsmeix@suse.de

- Update to version 1.17.1
  * Removed the plain password in the logs (and output) coming
    from BACKUP_PROG_CRYPT_KEY to avoid crib (issue #568)
  * Mount vfat file system without special mount options
    seems to work much better then with these options in recovery
    mode, therefore, we do not use these anymore (especially
    for /boot/efi) (issue #576)
  * Elilo support has been added for SLES
    (not fully tested yet) - issue #583
  * Grub2 rescue menu has been added (enable this feature
    with GRUB_RESCUE=y) - issue #589
  * splitted script 31_include_uefi_tools.sh in two pieces:
    31_include_uefi_tools.sh: to grab the UEFI tools (as long
    as /boot/efi is mounted), and 32_include_uefi_env.sh: to dig
    deeper into the configuration when UEFI is active
    (related to issue #214). This is necessary to have to UEFI
    tools on SLES 11/12 where we cannot create an UEFI bootable
    ISO image. We must boot in BIOS mode, and need the UEFI tools
    to make the system bootable over UEFI.
  * It is now possible to format an USB disk with a vfat and ext3
    partition (for UEFI booting) - issue #593
      rear -v format -- --efi /dev/<usbdevice>
    However, UEFI booting from an USB disk has not been
    implemented yet (sponsoring?).
  * Simplified the code for ext* fs and added StopIfError calls
    to prevent divide by zero during recovery (issue #598)
  * Syslinux version >6 requires some special handling due to
    splitting up the package (Ubuntu 15.04) (issue #584)
  * Debian 8 support added with ISO booting with latest syslinux
    release as well (issues #596, #599 and #600)
  * Changed the behavior of SSH_ROOT_PASSWORD - now saved as MD5
    hash password, but backwards compatibility is still respected
    (issue #560)
  * For EMC NetWorker server/client we added some exclude items
    to COPY_AS_IS_EXCLUDE_NSR (issue #571)
  * Removed the Warning message from main rear script as it was
    misleading (issues #563 and #564)
  * output/ISO/Linux-i386/80_create_isofs.sh: make sure
    ISO_FILES[@] are copied to isofs directory (issue #569)
- SLE11-ext3-example.conf is an example for SLE11
  with default ext3 filesystem that gets installed as
  /usr/share/rear/conf/SLE11-ext3-example.conf
- SLE12-btrfs-example.conf is an example for SLE12
  with default btrfs subvolumes that gets installed
  as /usr/share/rear/conf/SLE12-btrfs-example.conf
- Have config(noreplace) also for all files in /usr/share/rear/
  to avoid that RPM package update overwrites user edited files
  because Relax-and-Recover (rear) is meant to be adapted and
  enhanced by the user according to his particular needs
  (see http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Disaster_Recovery).
- Added rear-rpmlintrc to filter the following false positives
  rpmlint warning messages:
  * non-etc-or-var-file-marked-as-conffile
    because config(noreplace) is intentionally for all files
    in /usr/share/rear/ (see above)
  * systemd-service-without-service_del_preun
    systemd-service-without-service_del_postun
    systemd-service-without-service_add_pre
    systemd-service-without-service_add_post
    because the systemd unit files in /usr/share/rear/skel/
    are not meant to be used in the running system.
    They are used to build the rear recovery system ISO image.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Mar 15 19:42:07 UTC 2015 - p.drouand@gmail.com

- Update to version 1.17.0
  * rear 1.17 introduced a new stage directory (init) which
    is called before any workflow. Can be used for extra
    initialization code, custom configurations and other stuff
    that should happen each time that ReaR is used (was added
    especially for DRLM as plugin for their DRLM variables)
    (issue #557)
  * RHEL 5 could not mount NFS share as portmap daemon was not
    started yet. Reason was that script
    verify/NETFS/default/08_start_required_daemons.sh
    was executed after the mount test instead of before.
    (issue #547)
  * RHEL 6 on PPC64 architecture has problems with seclabel mount
    option. There was a fix which cuts the seclabel mount option
    (as rear is by default not using SELinux) (issue #545)
  * Disaster Recovery Linux Manager (DRLM) is a new Open Source
    project to centrally manage Disaster Recovery for Linux.
    ReaR 1.17 adds support for DRLM with a new configuration
    option DRLM_MANAGED=y (issue #522)
  * Adding /etc/crypto-policies/ when openssl is requested
    (prep/NETFS/default/09_check_encrypted_backup.sh) - required
    for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1179239
    (issue #523)
  * Introduced USING_UEFI_BOOTLOADER in default.conf file and
    modified all the involved scripts to follow the logic
    (issue #214)
  * Archicture PPC64 has been enhanced (partition recognition
    issue #536, console #537)
  * TSM restore filespace has been enhanced (issue #535)
  * Correct the usage of set -e and StopIfError function
    (issue #534, #541)
  * With BACKUP_TYPE=incremental disable variable
    NETFS_KEEP_OLD_BACKUP_COPY (mutual exclusive with this mode)
    (issue #143)
  * Increased to start variable from 32768 to 2097152 in script
    10_include_partition_code.sh (issue #492)
  * Adding /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf (Ubuntu) to rear image
    when found (issue #520)
  * When using /etc/rear/mappings/ip_addresses IPADDR/cidr
    must be translated into IPADDR and NETMASK (for RHEL 5 and 6)
    (issue #460)
  * mdadm layout code was changed in RHEL 7; code to deal with it
    (issue #518)
  * Adding missing driver xhci_hcd to GNU/Linux.conf (issue #519)
  * Adding findmnt command to GNU/Linux.conf file; request
    from https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=908854
  * BTRFS code has been rewritten by J. Meixner to get
    SUSE rear116 fork back into our master tree of rear. BTRFS is
    now properly recreated on Fedora 20 and 21 and on SLES 12 and
    openSUSE 13 (issue #233, #497, #538) See also
    https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=908854
  * Enhanced the systemd start-up of udev daemons which is
    different on Fedora 20 and 21 (issue #507, #531)
  * BACKUP_PROG_OPTIONS="anchored" became a default option
    in default.conf (issue #475)
  * Fixed an issue with auto-detection of the client name
    in BAREOS (issue #542)
  * Ubuntu 14.04 did not detect /dev/sda automatically - added
    upstart script 99-makedev.sh to create missing block devices
    like sda (issue #446)
  * New script
    usr/share/rear/layout/save/GNU/Linux/34_false_blacklisted.sh
    added as work-around. Sometimes we might see the HP Smart
    Storage Array disk listed as a multipath device. Most likely
    this device was not blacklisted in the blacklist section of
    the /etc/multipath.conf file (do not forget to rebuilt the
    initial ramdisk after this) e.g.
    falsempathdev=$( multipath -l | grep "HP,LOGICAL" | awk '{print $1}' )
    # mpatha
  * Added a systemd service script for SEP Sesam to start sesam
    client automatically (issue #498)
  * Disk Layout Generation with HP SmartArray with more than
    one Logical Drive correction introduced by issue #208
    (issue #455)
  * OUTPUT_URL=null was added to avoid 2 ISO images on the local
    system (issue #501, #419)
  * Fix drbd restore code so it can handle multiple volumes in
    single resource (issue #495)
  * Function get_device_name was enhanced to properly translate
    /dev/vg/lv to /dev/mapper/vg-lv (issue #494)

- Remove rear-release-notes.txt-1.16; rear-release-notes.txt has
  been updated
- Remove traditional_style_for_bash_3.diff; merged on upstream
  release

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue May 13 12:28:52 CEST 2014 - jsmeix@suse.de

- Provide also the other documentation ("make install" only
  installs the man page).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri May  9 14:48:24 CEST 2014 - jsmeix@suse.de

- Version upgrade to 1.16 from upstream (fate#316508)
  that has in particular VLAN tagging support (fate#317032).
  For details see the rear-release-notes.txt file.
  Warning for users who upgrade Relax-and-Recover (rear):
  Users who already use it must re-validate that their
  particular disaster recovery procedure still works.
  See in particular "Version upgrades" at
  http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Disaster_Recovery
- bug-859436_40_restore_with_tsm.sh.diff is obsolete
  because the issue is fixed in the uptream sources.
- rear-release-notes.txt-1.16 replaces the outdated
  doc/rear-release-notes.txt from rear-1.16.tar.gz.
- traditional_style_for_bash_3.diff replaces bash 4.x syntax
  with traditional style for bash 3.x if bash 3.x is used
  (i.e. up to openSUSE:11.1 and SLE11 where we have bash 3.x)
  where the test in the build environment assumes that the
  same bash major version is also used by the end-user in his
  runtime environment but even if the end-user had upgraded
  his bash it should not matter because bash 3.x syntax
  should also work for bash 4.x.
- Added an explicit os.conf to not depend on LSB dependencies
  to avoid calling "lsb_release" in config-functions.sh
  that might result inconsistent values (bnc#877042).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Feb  7 17:23:08 CET 2014 - jsmeix@suse.de

- Added "Requires: lsb-release" because rear calls "lsb_release"
  in /usr/share/rear/lib/config-functions.sh (bnc#861871).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Feb  7 12:08:12 CET 2014 - jsmeix@suse.de

- Cleanup of the LSB RPM requirements (bnc#861871):
  Replaced "Requires: lsb" by explicitly requiring
  only those RPM packages that are mandatory for rear
  (in particular when a binary is called in a script)
  because "Requires: lsb" would require much too much,
  see https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=807747#c4
  "A distribution is LSB Certified or LSB compliant if and only if
   the distribution provides all requirements as outlined in the
   specification."
  Accordingly the lsb RPM requires tons of stuff that is not
  needed by rear (in particular various graphical libraries,
  sound stuff, printing stuff, and so on).
- Replaced rear-1.15.tar.gz with the current one from upstream at
  https://sourceforge.net/projects/rear/files/rear/1.15/rear-1.15.tar.gz
  that contains exactly same files but the tarball differs
  (probably it was re-packed at upstream) and that causes
  failures of our automated factory-auto check scripts like:
  "download_files is configured to fail when the upstream file
   is different then the committed file".

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jan 22 13:00:39 CET 2014 - jsmeix@suse.de

- Version upgrade to 1.15 from upstream (fate#316508).
  For details see the rear-release-notes.txt file.
- bug-859436_40_restore_with_tsm.sh.diff fixes recovery
  with TSM (Tivoli Storage Manager) since version 6.4 that
  results in an error message "ANS1102E" as fixed upstream
  in https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/356 (bnc#859436).
- Warning for users who upgrade from rear 1.10.0
  (e.g. when upgrading from SUSE Linux Enterprise 11):
  Rear 1.15 has many new features and fundamental changes.
  In particular the filesystem creation is totally different
  (via the so called "layout workflow" instead of the old
  "dr workflow" that has been removed in rear 1.14).
  Users who already use rear must completely re-validate that
  their particular disaster recovery procedure still works.
  See in particular "Version upgrades" at
  http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Disaster_Recovery

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jun 12 08:30:00 UTC 2013 - werner@suse.com

  it. (rear works both /usr/bin/mkisofs and /usr/bin/genisoimage)
