Release notes
- Improved error handling: send out an email if mail_report_on has been
set to "errors" and a log message with log level LOG_ERR was logged.
- Abort and clean up if the snapshot volume could not be mounted
- Abort and clean up if the backup creation failed
- Exit with a non-zero return code if errorstate was set
- Enabled timestr() formatting sequences for snapshot volume names, to
create snapshot names which contain a dynamic date value. This can
be useful when thin provisioned snapshots are used as the actual backup
by enabling the keep_snapshot option
- Added "thin" option to mylvmbackup.conf (default=0), to enable
thin provisioned LVM snapshots
- Added new configuration option "recoveryopts" that allows to modify
the command line options that are passed to the MySQL instance that
performs the InnoDB recovery (BUG#544295 and BUG#1091950)
The current default options are "--skip-networking --skip-grant
--bootstrap --skip-syslog --skip-slave-start" (which better
accommodates MySQL 5.1)
- Merged patches from Alexandre Anriot to provide a mail reporting method
which sends the log output via email and a new "purge" action that allows
to only keep a defined number of backups in the backup directory
- Applied patch contributed by Klaus Ethgen that removes the annoying LVM
warnings about a leaked file descriptor (DBD:mysql does not add FD_CLOEXEC
on the MySQL socket)
- BUG#1086313: mvlvmbackup lacks support for 'thin' LVM snapshots
(Thanks to Neil Wilson for the patch)
- BUG#787063: Ensure to clean up temporary .pos files when the snapshot mount
is kept, too
- Applied small patch from Norbert Tretkowski: change umask to 077 before
creating the tarball backup files to prevent them from being readable by
everyone
- BUG#593220: Fixed the compressarg option for cat (removed the comment)
- Applied patch contributed by Ben Bonnel to add a new configuration option
"rsnaprsyncarg" that allows one to pass special options to the rsync process
when using the rsnap backend.
- Applied patch provided by Ask Bjørn Hansen to allow targets not to have a
timestamp (e.g. for rsync targets)
