- Update code base to pass pylint checks
- Add historic-size option under 'holland:backup' in backupset, this will use the last backups size to estimate the next backup size. Holland will default to the current estimate method if it can't determine what the last values were, or if the database size has changed drastically
- Update Holland to work on Python 3. It's now using compatibility library to support Python version > 2.6
- Update packaged version of ConfigObj to 5.0.6
- holland now has a few external dependencies: * future * six
- Implemented fix for broken stop-slave function on MySQL 5.7+ (Fixes GH#185 jacripe)
- Remove holland.backup.maatkit and holland.backup.mysqlhotcopy from active backup list
- Add 'format' option to 'logging' in /etc/holland/holland.conf (GH#99). This uses the current log formatter if 'format' not defined.
- Add dir archive-method (GH Pull #184 chder)
- bin-log-position will now record the masters position even if stop-slave isn't enabled
- Update stop/start slave fuctions
- Print out xtrabackup version number
- Add plugin to allow use of mariabackup binary
- Add plugin to allow holland to backup mongodb
- A fix for launchpad bug #1220841 caused plugins that used "SHOW SLAVE STATUS" via the holland mysql lib to fail with an "unknown encoding: binary" error. The changes for LP #1220841 have been reverted.
- A bug was introduced in 1.0.12 which caused mysqldump's lock-method "auto-detect" option to always use lock-tables under MySQL 5.0 environments. (Fixes GH#148)
- The "holland" command no longer attempts to suppress log output when output is not to a terminal. Previously this was done when either the --quiet options was used or if holland detected it was not writing to a console. Now the "holland --quiet" option must be used to suppress output or output can be redirected via standard shell stdio facilities. (Fixes GH#98)
- Hooks are no longer run during a dry-run (Fixes GH#121; Thanks Mike Griffin!)
- Holland now supports gpg as a compression option for all backup plugins (Thanks to Ryan Cleere for the contribution and Tim Soderstrom for documenting the improvement) GH#95
- Added contrib/holland-commvault; See contrib/holland-commvault/README for a description of this module.
- Various MySQL metadata queries used by the mysqldump plugin were not compatible with MySQL-python 1.2.5 due to the way parameters were passed. (Fixes GH#106).
- exclude-invalid-views will now handle invalid views using an illegal mix of collation (Fixes LP#1207852).
- exclude-invalid-views handles unexpected mysql errors more gracefully now. (Fixes LP#1207852)
- lock-method = auto-detect now considers memory, myisam_mrg and federated engines as transactional when determining whether to use mysqldump --single-transaction (LP #1081261)
- mysqldump failed to detect invalid views under mysql 5.0 (LP #1262352)
- invalid strings in show slave status are now handled more gracefully (LP #1220841)
- Estimating the size of a backup would fail under MariaDB 10.1 due to the numeric value being returned as a Decimal rather than an int object, primarily causing later formatting of the estimated values to fail due to mixing decimal and integer arithemetic. holland now ensures these values are integers. (GH#125)
- missing pg_dump/pg_dumpall commands are now handled more gracefully (LP #1206202)
- The connection used for discovering databases to backup is now closed before pg_dump commands are run (LP #1236618)
- special characters in the provided password are escaped when generating PGPASSFILE. (GH#116)
- holland-xtrabackup now uses innobackupex as innobackupex binary as innobackupex-1.5.1 has been deprecated upstream for several releases
- holland-xtrabackup previously failed to compress xbstream archives regardless of the [compression] configuration for the backupset. (LP#1246562)
- Added purge-on-demand option to [holland:backup] If set, this option will cause holland backup to attempt to purge old backups to allow a new backup to start rather than failing when it appears that there is insufficient space to run a new backup. If the space consumed by all purgable backups is less than the estimated space for a new backup, no backups are purged.
- FLUSH TABLES is now run as FLUSH /*!40101 LOCAL */ TABLES to avoid replicating this statement. This affects any plugins that issue flush tables via the holland-common mysql client API
- [compression] config sections now support an additional parameter "options". This extends the commandline for the underlying compression command. This was added to allow specifying command specific options such as gzip --rsyncable or pigz -p N.
- dump-events now defaults to on - automatically disabled for MySQL < 5.1
- dump-routines now defaults to on - automatically disabled for MySQL < 5.0
- when no databases are found during schema discovery, mysqldump now fails with a backup error. This can occur if the configured backup user does not have sufficient access to any database.
- Fixed bug in purge-policy=before-backup that would fail to retain the in-progress backup and ultimately cause the backup run to fail.
- Added before/after/failed backup command options to [holland:backup] for each backupset. Contributed by osheroff
- Fixed a bug in holland.conf [logging] handling where the log-level would be ignored in favor of the default value for holland --log-level.
- holland mk-config now adds a default estimated-size-factor to the [holland:backup] section.
- holland purge now correctly updates symlinks when run manually
- pbzip2 is now a supported compression option. This is valid for any holland plugins that use the internal holland compression command api. Contributed by justino
- Fix bug with holland backup --dry-run and mysqldump plugin's stop-slave=yes option. The slave would be incorrectly stopped in dry-run mode, but never restarted.
- Fixed a bug with estimate-method=const where lock-method=auto-detect would not properly detect when to set single-transaction because table engine information was not read.
- Plugin estimate method now ignores MRG_MyISAM and Federated tables when estimating the total backup space in order to avoid counting tables twice.
- Fixed a bug in my.cnf parsing code that did not treat my.cnf sections case insenstiviely. This differed from the mysqldump behavior
- Fixed a bug in the relpath implementation where paths relative to / were not properly calculated. This was a bug in os.path.relpath in python <= 2.6: http://bugs.python.org/issue5117. Backported the fix from python 2.7
- Fix a bug in tar archiver that was not closing the output stream at the end of a backup.
- Added pre- and post-args to [tar] config to allow customizing options to GNU tar used for archiving mysql-lvm backups.
- LVM plugins now detect when they cannot correctly backup innodb data. mysql-lvm will abort by default if any innodb data files reside outside the datadir. mysqldump-lvm will rewrite innodb-data-file-path, innodb-data-home-dir and innodb-log-group-home-dir in order to startup the bootstrap mysqld process correctly.
- added force-innodb-backup option to force a mysql-lvm backup even if it appears unsafe to do so. InnoDB datafiles outside of the datadir are not backed up by default unless tar's pre- and/or post-args are set correctly.
- added force-backup-to-snapshot-origin option to disable sanity check when holland's backup-directory is set to store backups on the same volume we are currently snapshotting.
- The xtrabackup plugin now fails more cleanly when the innbackupex command could not be found
- The xtrabackup plugin now handles failures in closing the output stream more gracefully.
- Updated xtrabackup plugin to support xtrabackup 2.0
- Added stream=xbstream support
- Added support for streaming=no to perform a simply directory copy backup
- Added tmpdir option - previously tmpdir was taken from the my.cnf defaults-file
- Added an additional-options = option, option, option for specifying arbitrary options to innobackupex
- Added ibbackup=path option
- Added pre-command=command option
- Added safe-slave-backup=boolean option
- Added apply-logs=boolean option
- holland backup better differentiates between a dry-run and normal backup in logging output
- holland mk-config now produces cleaner output and includes a --minimal option to strip comments from the backupset output.
- holland now more elegantly handles running the same backupset more than once per second. Previously this could result in a stack trace as the backupset directory already exists.
- holland now maintains newest and oldest symlinks in each backupset directory pointing to the newest and oldest backup. (Contribution from Micah Yoder)
- holland.conf now accepts a tmpdir option for environments where manipulating TEMPDIR environment variable is not convenient
- holland backup --help is now consistent with holland help backup (Fixes LP#677716)
- holland now warns about unknown options in config files
- The example plugin has been deprecated in favor of the holland-random plugin, which provides a more useful starting example
- previously when logging failed (disk space, permissions, etc.) a stack trace would be printed on stderr. As of 1.0.6 this is only done in when the logging level is set to 'debug'
- holland backup --dry-run previously failed for mysqldump backups when per-table exclusions were specified. (Fixes GH#60)
- config files are now read as utf8 (Fixes GH#57)
- holland-mysqldump now only stops the SQL_THREAD when stop-slave is requested
- error messages from MySQLdb are now decoded from utf8 as necessary
- holland-mysqldump now defaults max-allowed-packet to 128M
- holland-mysqldump now excludes performance_schema by default
- holland-mysqldump now more reliably parses my.cnf files specified via defaults-extra-files
- when a volume group has zero free extents, an unhandled exception would be thrown due to a bug in formatting the error message (Fixed LP#699795)
- holland-mysqllvm had a bug in the example config file that would always maintain two backups
- holland-mysqllvm now catches SIGHUP/SIGTERM more consistently
- holland-mysqllvm logs error output from various commands more consistently
- holland-mysqllvm will not create snapshot-mountpoint if it does not exist (Fixes LP#671965)
- holland-mysqllvm previously failed to automatically mount xfs snapshots with nouuid. This is now automatically detected (Fixes GH#61)
- additional tests for ext3 and xfs filesystems were added to holland.lib.lvm
- holland-xtrabackup now logs stderr output on a backup failure. Previously this was only logged to xtrabackup.log in the backup directory. (Fixes LP#671971)
- holland-xtrabackup should now be built by default in contrib/holland.spec
- add missing inline compression option.
- Added holland-pgdump plugin (Contribution from Micah Yoder)
