2026-02-02 ### Fixed - **CRITICAL: Native Engine Array Type Support** - Fixed: Array columns (e.g., `INTEGER[]`, `TEXT[]`) were exported as just `ARRAY` - Now properly exports array types using PostgreSQL's `udt_name` from information_schema - Supports all common array types: integer[], text[], bigint[], boolean[], bytea[], json[], jsonb[], uuid[], timestamp[], etc. ### Verified Working - **Full BLOB/Binary Data Round-Trip Validated** - BYTEA columns with NULL bytes (0x00) preserved correctly - Unicode data (emoji πŸš€, Chinese δΈ­ζ–‡, Arabic Ψ§Ω„ΨΉΨ±Ψ¨ΩŠΨ©) preserved - JSON/JSONB with Unicode preserved - Integer and text arrays restored correctly - 10,002 row test with checksum verification: PASS ### Technical Details - `internal/engine/native/postgresql.go`: - Added `udt_name` to column query - Updated `formatDataType()` to convert PostgreSQL internal array names (_int4, _text, etc.) to SQL syntax ## [5.5.1] - 2026-02-02 ### Fixed - **CRITICAL: Native Engine Restore Fixed** - Restore now connects to target database correctly - Previously connected to source database, causing data to be written to wrong database - Now creates engine with target database for proper restore - **CRITICAL: Native Engine Backup - Sequences Now Exported** - Fixed: Sequences were silently skipped due to type mismatch in PostgreSQL query - Cast `information_schema.sequences` string values to bigint - Sequences now properly created BEFORE tables that reference them - **CRITICAL: Native Engine COPY Handling** - Fixed: COPY FROM stdin data blocks now properly parsed and executed - Replaced simple line-by-line SQL execution with proper COPY protocol handling - Uses pgx `CopyFrom` for bulk data loading (100k+ rows/sec) - **Tool Verification Bypass for Native Mode** - Skip pg_restore/psql check when `--native` flag is used - Enables truly zero-dependency deployment - **Panic Fix: Slice Bounds Error** - Fixed runtime panic when logging short SQL statements during errors ### Technical Details - `internal/engine/native/manager.go`: Create new engine with target database for restore - `internal/engine/native/postgresql.go`: Fixed Restore() to handle COPY protocol, fixed getSequenceCreateSQL() type casting - `cmd/restore.go`: Skip VerifyTools when cfg.UseNativeEngine is true - `internal/tui/restore_preview.go`: Show "Native engine mode" instead of tool check ## [5.5.0] - 2026-02-02 ### Added - **πŸš€ Native Engine Support for Cluster Backup/Restore** - NEW: `--native` flag for cluster backup creates SQL format (.sql.gz) using pure Go - NEW: `--native` flag for cluster restore uses pure Go engine for .sql.gz files - Zero external tool dependencies when using native mode - Single-binary deployment now possible without pg_dump/pg_restore installed - **Native Cluster Backup** (`dbbackup backup cluster --native`) - Creates .sql.gz files instead of .dump files - Uses pgx wire protocol for data export - Parallel gzip compression with pgzip - Automatic fallback to pg_dump if `--fallback-tools` is set - **Native Cluster Restore** (`dbbackup restore cluster --native --confirm`) - Restores .sql.gz files using pure Go (pgx CopyFrom) - No psql or pg_restore required - Automatic detection: uses native for .sql.gz, pg_restore for .dump - Fallback support with `--fallback-tools` ### Updated - **NATIVE_ENGINE_SUMMARY.md** - Complete rewrite with accurate documentation - Native engine matrix now shows full cluster support with `--native` flag ### Technical Details - `internal/backup/engine.go`: Added native engine path in BackupCluster() - `internal/restore/engine.go`: Added `restoreWithNativeEngine()` function - `cmd/backup.go`: Added `--native` and `--fallback-tools` flags to cluster command - `cmd/restore.go`: Added `--native` and `--fallback-tools` flags with PreRunE handlers - Version bumped to 5.5.0 (new feature release) ## [5.4.6] - 2026-02-02 ### Fixed - **CRITICAL: Progress Tracking for Large Database Restores** - Fixed "no progress" issue where TUI showed 0% for hours during large single-DB restore - Root cause: Progress only updated after database *completed*, not during restore - Heartbeat now reports estimated progress every 5 seconds (was 15s, text-only) - Time-based progress estimation: ~10MB/s throughput assumption - Progress capped at 95% until actual completion (prevents jumping to 100% too early) - **Improved TUI Feedback During Long Restores** - Shows spinner + elapsed time when byte-level progress not available - Displays "pg_restore in progress (progress updates every 5s)" message - Better visual feedback that restore is actively running ### Technical Details - `reportDatabaseProgressByBytes()` now called during restore, not just after completion - Heartbeat interval reduced from 15s to 5s for more responsive feedback - TUI gracefully handles `CurrentDBTotal=0` case with activity indicator ## [5.4.5] - 2026-02-02 ### Fixed - **Accurate Disk Space Estimation for Cluster Archives** - Fixed WARNING showing 836GB for 119GB archive - was using wrong compression multiplier - Cluster archives (.tar.gz) contain pre-compressed .dump files β†’ now uses 1.2x multiplier - Single SQL files (.sql.gz) still use 5x multiplier (was 7x, slightly optimized) - New `CheckSystemMemoryWithType(size, isClusterArchive)` method for accurate estimates - 119GB cluster archive now correctly estimates ~143GB instead of ~833GB ## [5.4.4] - 2026-02-02 ### Fixed - **TUI Header Separator Fix** - Capped separator length at 40 chars to prevent line overflow on wide terminals ## [5.4.3] - 2026-02-02 ### Fixed - **Bulletproof SIGINT Handling** - Zero zombie processes guaranteed - All external commands now use `cleanup.SafeCommand()` with process group isolation - `KillCommandGroup()` sends signals to entire process group (-pgid) - No more orphaned pg_restore/pg_dump/psql/pigz processes on Ctrl+C - 16 files updated with proper signal handling - **Eliminated External gzip Process** - The `zgrep` command was spawning `gzip -cdfq` - Replaced with in-process pgzip decompression in `preflight.go` - `estimateBlobsInSQL()` now uses pure Go pgzip.NewReader - Zero external gzip processes during restore ## [5.1.22] - 2026-02-01 ### Added - **Restore Metrics for Prometheus/Grafana** - Now you can monitor restore performance! - `dbbackup_restore_total{status="success|failure"}` - Total restore count - `dbbackup_restore_duration_seconds{profile, parallel_jobs}` - Restore duration - `dbbackup_restore_parallel_jobs{profile}` - Jobs used (shows if turbo=8 is working!) - `dbbackup_restore_size_bytes` - Restored archive size - `dbbackup_restore_last_timestamp` - Last restore time - **Grafana Dashboard: Restore Operations Section** - Total Successful/Failed Restores - Parallel Jobs Used (RED if 1=SLOW, GREEN if 8=TURBO) - Last Restore Duration with thresholds - Restore Duration Over Time graph - Parallel Jobs per Restore bar chart - **Restore Engine Metrics Recording** - All single database and cluster restores now record metrics - Stored in `~/.dbbackup/restore_metrics.json` - Prometheus exporter reads and exposes these metrics ## [5.1.21] - 2026-02-01 ### Fixed - **Complete verification of profile system** - Full code path analysis confirms TURBO works: - CLI: `--profile turbo` β†’ `config.ApplyProfile()` β†’ `cfg.Jobs=8` β†’ `pg_restore --jobs=8` - TUI: Settings β†’ `ApplyResourceProfile()` β†’ `cpu.GetProfileByName("turbo")` β†’ `cfg.Jobs=8` - Updated help text for `restore cluster` command to show turbo example - Updated flag description to list all profiles: conservative, balanced, turbo, max-performance ## [5.1.20] - 2026-02-01 ### Fixed - **CRITICAL: "turbo" and "max-performance" profiles were NOT recognized in restore command!** - `profile.go` only had: conservative, balanced, aggressive, potato - "turbo" profile returned ERROR "unknown profile" and SILENTLY fell back to "balanced" - "balanced" profile has `Jobs: 0` which became `Jobs: 1` after default fallback - **Result: --profile turbo was IGNORED and restore ran with --jobs=1 (single-threaded)** - Added turbo profile: Jobs=8, ParallelDBs=2 - Added max-performance profile: Jobs=8, ParallelDBs=4 - NOW `--profile turbo` correctly uses `pg_restore --jobs=8` ## [5.1.19] - 2026-02-01 ### Fixed - **CRITICAL: pg_restore --jobs flag was NEVER added when Parallel <= 1** - Root cause finally found and fixed: - In `BuildRestoreCommand()` the condition was `if options.Parallel > 1` which meant `--jobs` flag was NEVER added when Parallel was 1 or less - Changed to `if options.Parallel > 0` so `--jobs` is ALWAYS set when Parallel > 0 - This was THE root cause why restores took 12+ hours instead of ~4 hours - Now `pg_restore --jobs=8` is correctly generated for turbo profile ## [5.1.18] - 2026-02-01 ### Fixed - **CRITICAL: Profile Jobs setting now ALWAYS respected** - Removed multiple code paths that were overriding user's profile Jobs setting: - `restoreSection()` for phased restores now uses `--jobs` flag (was missing entirely!) - Removed auto-fallback that forced `Jobs=1` when PostgreSQL locks couldn't be boosted - Removed auto-fallback that forced `Jobs=1` on low memory detection - User's profile choice (turbo, performance, etc.) is now respected - only warnings are logged - This was causing restores to take 9+ hours instead of ~4 hours with turbo profile ## [5.1.17] - 2026-02-01 ### Fixed - **TUI Settings now persist to disk** - Settings changes in TUI are now saved to `.dbbackup.conf` file, not just in-memory - **Native Engine is now the default** - Pure Go engine (no external tools required) is now the default instead of external tools mode ## [5.1.16] - 2026-02-01 ### Fixed - **Critical: pg_restore parallel jobs now actually used** - Fixed bug where `--jobs` flag and profile `Jobs` setting were completely ignored for `pg_restore`. The code had hardcoded `Parallel: 1` instead of using `e.cfg.Jobs`, causing all restores to run single-threaded regardless of configuration. This fix enables 3-4x faster restores matching native `pg_restore -j8` performance. - Affected functions: `restorePostgreSQLDump()`, `restorePostgreSQLDumpWithOwnership()` - Now logs `parallel_jobs` value for visibility - Turbo profile with `Jobs: 8` now correctly passes `--jobs=8` to pg_restore ## [5.1.15] - 2026-01-31 ### Fixed - Fixed go vet warning for Printf directive in shell command output (CI fix) ## [5.1.14] - 2026-01-31 ### Added - Quick Win Features - **Cross-Region Sync** (`cloud cross-region-sync`) - Sync backups between cloud regions for disaster recovery - Support for S3, MinIO, Azure Blob, Google Cloud Storage - Parallel transfers with configurable concurrency - Dry-run mode to preview sync plan - Filter by database name or backup age - Delete orphaned files with `--delete` flag - **Retention Policy Simulator** (`retention-simulator`) - Preview retention policy effects without deleting backups - Simulate simple age-based and GFS retention strategies - Compare multiple retention periods side-by-side (7, 14, 30, 60, 90 days) - Calculate space savings and backup counts - Analyze backup frequency and provide recommendations - **Catalog Dashboard** (`catalog dashboard`) - Interactive TUI for browsing backup catalog - Sort by date, size, database, or type - Filter backups with search - Detailed view with backup metadata - Keyboard navigation (vim-style keys supported) - **Parallel Restore Analysis** (`parallel-restore`) - Analyze system for optimal parallel restore settings - Benchmark disk I/O performance - Simulate restore with different parallelism levels - Provide recommendations based on CPU and memory - **Progress Webhooks** (`progress-webhooks`) - Configure webhook notifications for backup/restore progress - Periodic progress updates during long operations - Test mode to verify webhook connectivity - Environment variable configuration (DBBACKUP_WEBHOOK_URL) - **Encryption Key Rotation** (`encryption rotate`) - Generate new encryption keys (128, 192, 256-bit) - Save keys to file with secure permissions (0600) - Support for base64 and hex output formats ### Changed - Updated version to 5.1.14 - Removed development files from repository (.dbbackup.conf, TODO_SESSION.md, test-backups/) ## [5.1.0] - 2026-01-30 ### Fixed - **CRITICAL**: Fixed PostgreSQL native engine connection pooling issues that caused \"conn busy\" errors - **CRITICAL**: Fixed PostgreSQL table data export - now properly captures all table schemas and data using COPY protocol - **CRITICAL**: Fixed PostgreSQL native engine to use connection pool for all metadata queries (getTables, getViews, getSequences, getFunctions) - Fixed gzip compression implementation in native backup CLI integration - Fixed exitcode package syntax errors causing CI failures ### Added - Enhanced PostgreSQL native engine with proper connection pool management - Complete table data export using COPY TO STDOUT protocol - Comprehensive testing with complex data types (JSONB, arrays, foreign keys) - Production-ready native engine performance and stability ### Changed - All PostgreSQL metadata queries now use connection pooling instead of shared connection - Improved error handling and debugging output for native engines - Enhanced backup file structure with proper SQL headers and footers ## [5.0.1] - 2026-01-30 ### Fixed - Quality Improvements - **PostgreSQL COPY Format**: Fixed format mismatch - now uses native TEXT format compatible with `COPY FROM stdin` - **MySQL Restore Security**: Fixed potential SQL injection in restore by properly escaping backticks in database names - **MySQL 8.0.22+ Compatibility**: Added fallback for `SHOW BINARY LOG STATUS` (MySQL 8.0.22+) with graceful fallback to `SHOW MASTER STATUS` for older versions - **Duration Calculation**: Fixed backup duration tracking to accurately capture elapsed time --- ## [5.0.0] - 2026-01-30 ### MAJOR RELEASE - Native Engine Implementation **BREAKTHROUGH: We Built Our Own Database Engines** **This is a really big step.** We're no longer calling external tools - **we built our own machines**. dbbackup v5.0.0 represents a **fundamental architectural revolution**.

Now properly loads and respects saved settings. ### Changed - TUI default profile changed from forced `conservative` to `balanced` (only when no profile configured) - `LargeDBMode` no longer forced on TUI startup - user controls it via settings ## [4.1.3] - 2026-01-27 ### Added - **`--config` / `-c` global flag** - Specify config file path from anywhere - Example: `dbbackup --config /opt/dbbackup/.dbbackup.conf backup single mydb` - No longer need to `cd` to config directory before running commands - Works with all subcommands (backup, restore, verify, etc.) ## [4.1.2] - 2026-01-27 ### Added - **`--socket` flag for MySQL/MariaDB** - Connect via Unix socket instead of TCP/IP - Usage: `dbbackup backup single mydb --db-type mysql --socket /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock` - Works for both backup and restore operations - Supports socket auth (no password required with proper permissions) ### Fixed - **Socket path as --host now works** - If `--host` starts with `/`, it's auto-detected as a socket path - Example: `--host /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock` now works correctly instead of DNS lookup error - Auto-converts to `--socket` internally ## [4.1.1] - 2026-01-25 ### Added - **`dbbackup_build_info` metric** - Exposes version and git commit as Prometheus labels - Useful for tracking deployed versions across a fleet - Labels: `server`, `version`, `commit` ### Fixed - **Documentation clarification**: The `pitr_base` value for `backup_type` label is auto-assigned by `dbbackup pitr base` command. CLI `--backup-type` flag only accepts `full` or `incremental`. This was causing confusion in deployments. ## [4.1.0] - 2026-01-25 ### Added - **Backup Type Tracking**: All backup metrics now include a `backup_type` label (`full`, `incremental`, or `pitr_base` for PITR base backups) - **PITR Metrics**: Complete Point-in-Time Recovery monitoring - `dbbackup_pitr_enabled` - Whether PITR is enabled (1/0) - `dbbackup_pitr_archive_lag_seconds` - Seconds since last WAL/binlog archived -

Total archive storage - `dbbackup_pitr_recovery_window_minutes` - Estimated PITR coverage - **PITR Alerting Rules**: 6 new alerts for PITR monitoring - PITRArchiveLag, PITRChainBroken, PITRGapsDetected, PITRArchiveStalled, PITRStorageGrowing, PITRDisabledUnexpectedly - **`dbbackup_backup_by_type` metric** - Count backups by type ### Changed - `dbbackup_backup_total` type changed from counter to gauge for snapshot-based collection ## [3.42.110] - 2026-01-24 ### Improved - Code Quality & Testing - **Cleaned up 40+ unused code items** found by staticcheck: - Removed unused functions, variables, struct fields, and type aliases - Fixed SA4006 warning (unused value assignment in restore engine) -

Updated `install-tools` to install golangci-lint - **New unit tests** for improved coverage: - `internal/config/config_test.go` - Tests for config initialization, database types, env helpers - `internal/security/security_test.go` - Tests for checksums, path validation, rate limiting, audit logging ## [3.42.109] - 2026-01-24 ### Added - Grafana Dashboard & Monitoring Improvements - **Enhanced Grafana dashboard** with comprehensive improvements: - Added dashboard description for better discoverability - New collapsible "Backup Overview" row for organization - New **Verification Status** panel showing last backup verification state - Added descriptions to all 17 panels for better understanding - Enabled shared crosshair (graphTooltip=1) for correlated analysis - Added "monitoring" tag for dashboard discovery - **New Prometheus alerting rules** (`grafana/alerting-rules.yaml`): - `DBBackupRPOCritical` - No backup in 24+ hours (critical) - `DBBackupRPOWarning` - No backup in 12+ hours (warning) - `DBBackupFailure` - Backup failures detected - `DBBackupNotVerified` - Backup not verified in 24h - `DBBackupDedupRatioLow` - Dedup ratio below 10% - `DBBackupDedupDiskGrowth` - Rapid storage growth prediction - `DBBackupExporterDown` - Metrics exporter not responding - `DBBackupMetricsStale` - Metrics not updated in 10+ minutes - `DBBackupNeverSucceeded` - Database never backed up successfully ### Changed - **Grafana dashboard layout fixes**: - Fixed overlapping dedup panels (y: 31/36 β†’ 22/27/32) - Adjusted top row panel widths for better balance (5+5+5+4+5=24) - **Added Makefile** for streamlined development workflow: - `make build` - optimized binary with ldflags - `make test`, `make race`, `make cover` - testing targets - `make lint` - runs vet + staticcheck - `make all-platforms` - cross-platform builds ### Fixed - Removed deprecated `netErr.Temporary()` call in cloud retry logic (Go 1.18+) - Fixed staticcheck warnings for redundant fmt.Sprintf calls - Logger optimizations: buffer pooling, early level check, pre-allocated maps - Clone engine now validates disk space before operations ## [3.42.108] - 2026-01-24 ### Added - TUI Tools Expansion - **Table Sizes** - view top 100 tables sorted by size with row counts, data/index breakdown - Supports PostgreSQL (`pg_stat_user_tables`) and MySQL (`information_schema.TABLES`) - Shows total/data/index sizes, row counts, schema prefix for non-public schemas - **Kill Connections** - manage active database connections - List all active connections with PID, user, database, state, query preview, duration - Kill single connection or all connections to a specific database - Useful before restore operations to clear blocking sessions - Supports PostgreSQL (`pg_terminate_backend`) and MySQL (`KILL`) - **Drop Database** - safely drop databases with double confirmation - Lists user databases (system DBs hidden: postgres, template0/1, mysql, sys, etc.) - Requires two confirmations: y/n then type full database name - Auto-terminates connections before drop - Supports PostgreSQL and MySQL ## [3.42.107] - 2026-01-24 ### Added - Tools Menu & Blob Statistics - **New "Tools" submenu in TUI** - centralized access to utility functions - Blob Statistics - scan database for bytea/blob columns with size analysis - Blob Extract - externalize large objects (coming soon) - Dedup Store Analyze - storage savings analysis (coming soon) - Verify Backup Integrity - backup verification - Catalog Sync - synchronize local catalog (coming soon) - **New `dbbackup blob stats` CLI command** - analyze blob/bytea columns - Scans `information_schema` for binary column types - Shows row counts, total size, average size, max size per column - Identifies tables storing large binary data for optimization - Supports both PostgreSQL (bytea, oid) and MySQL (blob, mediumblob, longblob) - Provides recommendations for databases with >100MB blob data ## [3.42.106] - 2026-01-24 ### Fixed - Cluster Restore Resilience & Performance - **Fixed cluster restore failing on missing roles** - harmless "role does not exist" errors no longer abort restore - Added role-related errors to `isIgnorableError()` with warning log - Removed `ON_ERROR_STOP=1` from psql commands (pre-validation catches real corruption) - Restore now continues gracefully when referenced roles don't exist in target cluster - Previously caused 12h+ restores to fail at 94% completion - **Fixed TUI output scrambling in screen/tmux sessions** - added terminal detection - Uses `go-isatty` to detect non-interactive terminals (backgrounded screen sessions, pipes) - Added `viewSimple()` methods for clean line-by-line output without ANSI escape codes - TUI menu now shows warning when running in non-interactive terminal ### Changed - Consistent Parallel Compression (pgzip) - **Migrated all gzip operations to parallel pgzip** - 2-4x faster compression/decompression on multi-core systems - Systematic audit found 17 files using standard `compress/gzip` - All converted to `github.com/klauspost/pgzip` for consistent performance - **Files updated**: - `internal/backup/`: incremental_tar.go, incremental_extract.go, incremental_mysql.go - `internal/wal/`: compression.go (CompressWALFile, DecompressWALFile, VerifyCompressedFile) - `internal/engine/`: clone.go, snapshot_engine.go, mysqldump.go, binlog/file_target.go - `internal/restore/`: engine.go, safety.go, formats.go, error_report.go - `internal/pitr/`: mysql.go, binlog.go - `internal/dedup/`: store.go - `cmd/`: dedup.go, placeholder.go - **Benefit**: Large backup/restore operations now fully utilize available CPU cores ## [3.42.105] - 2026-01-23 ### Changed - TUI Visual Cleanup - **Removed ASCII box characters** from backup/restore success/failure banners - Replaced `β•”β•β•—β•‘β•šβ•` boxes with clean `═══` horizontal line separators - Cleaner, more modern appearance in terminal output - **Consolidated duplicate styles** in TUI components - Unified check status styles (passed/failed/warning/pending) into global definitions - Reduces code duplication across restore preview and diagnose views ## [3.42.98] - 2025-01-23 ### Fixed - Critical Bug Fixes for v3.42.97 - **Fixed CGO/SQLite build issue** - binaries now work when compiled with `CGO_ENABLED=0` - Switched from `github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3` (requires CGO) to `modernc.org/sqlite` (pure Go) - All cross-compiled binaries now work correctly on all platforms - No more "Binary was compiled with 'CGO_ENABLED=0', go-sqlite3 requires cgo to work" errors - **Fixed MySQL positional database argument being ignored** -

Supports human-readable formats: - `10MB/s`, `50MiB/s` - megabytes per second - `100KB/s`, `500KiB/s` - kilobytes per second - `1GB/s` - gigabytes per second - `100Mbps` - megabits per second (for network-minded users) - `unlimited` or `0` - no limit (default) - Environment variable: `DBBACKUP_BANDWIDTH_LIMIT` - **Example usage**: ```bash # Limit upload to 10 MB/s during business hours dbbackup cloud upload backup.dump --bandwidth-limit 10MB/s # Environment variable for all operations export DBBACKUP_BANDWIDTH_LIMIT=50MiB/s ``` - **Implementation**: Token-bucket style throttling with 100ms windows for smooth rate limiting - **DBA requested feature**: Avoid saturating production network during scheduled backups ## [3.42.96] - 2025-02-01 ### Changed - Complete Elimination of Shell tar/gzip Dependencies - **All tar/gzip operations now 100% in-process** - ZERO shell dependencies for backup/restore - Removed ALL remaining `exec.Command("tar", ...)` calls - Removed ALL remaining `exec.Command("gzip", ...)` calls - Systematic code audit found and eliminated: - `diagnose.go`: Replaced `tar -tzf` test with direct file open check - `large_restore_check.go`: Replaced `gzip -t` and `gzip -l` with in-process pgzip verification - `pitr/restore.go`: Replaced `tar -xf` with in-process tar extraction - **Benefits**: - No external tool dependencies (works in minimal containers) - 2-4x faster on multi-core systems using parallel pgzip - More reliable error handling with Go-native errors - Consistent behavior across all platforms - Reduced attack surface (no shell spawning) - **Verification**: `strace` and `ps aux` show no tar/gzip/gunzip processes during backup/restore - **Note**: Docker drill container commands still use gunzip for in-container operations (intentional) ## [Unreleased] ### Added - Single Database Extraction from Cluster Backups (CLI + TUI) - **Extract and restore individual databases from cluster backups** - selective restore without full cluster restoration - **CLI Commands**: - **List databases**: `dbbackup restore cluster backup.tar.gz --list-databases` - Shows all databases in cluster backup with sizes - Fast scan without full extraction - **Extract single database**: `dbbackup restore cluster backup.tar.gz --database myapp --output-dir /tmp/extract` - Extracts only the specified database dump - No restore, just file extraction - **Restore single database from cluster**: `dbbackup restore cluster backup.tar.gz --database myapp --confirm` - Extracts and restores only one database - Much faster than full cluster restore when you only need one database - **Rename on restore**: `dbbackup restore cluster backup.tar.gz --database myapp --target myapp_test --confirm` - Restore with different database name (useful for testing) - **Extract multiple databases**: `dbbackup restore cluster backup.tar.gz --databases "app1,app2,app3" --output-dir /tmp/extract` - Comma-separated list of databases to extract - **TUI Support**: - Press **'s'** on any cluster backup in archive browser to select individual databases - New **ClusterDatabaseSelector** view shows all databases with sizes - Navigate with arrow keys, select with Enter - Automatic handling when cluster backup selected in single restore mode - Full restore preview and confirmation workflow - **Benefits**: - Faster restores (extract only what you need) - Less disk space usage during restore - Easy database migration/copying - Better testing workflow - Selective disaster recovery ### Performance - Cluster Restore Optimization - **Eliminated duplicate archive extraction in cluster restore** - saves 30-50% time on large restores - Previously: Archive was extracted twice (once in preflight validation, once in actual restore) - Now: Archive extracted once and reused for both validation and restore - **Time savings**: - 50 GB cluster: ~3-6 minutes faster - 10 GB cluster: ~1-2 minutes faster - Small clusters (<5 GB): ~30 seconds faster - Optimization automatically enabled when `--diagnose` flag is used - New `ValidateAndExtractCluster()` performs combined validation + extraction - `RestoreCluster()` accepts optional `preExtractedPath` parameter to reuse extracted directory - Disk space checks intelligently skipped when using pre-extracted directory - Maintains backward compatibility - works with and without pre-extraction - Log output shows optimization: `"Using pre-extracted cluster directory ... optimization: skipping duplicate extraction"` ### Improved - Archive Validation - **Enhanced tar.gz validation with stream-based checks** - Fast header-only validation (validates gzip + tar structure without full extraction) - Checks gzip magic bytes (0x1f 0x8b) and tar header signature - Reduces preflight validation time from minutes to seconds on large archives - Falls back to full extraction only when necessary (with `--diagnose`) ### Added - PostgreSQL lock verification (CLI + preflight) - **`dbbackup verify-locks`** β€” new CLI command that probes PostgreSQL GUCs (`max_locks_per_transaction`, `max_connections`, `max_prepared_transactions`) and prints total lock capacity plus actionable restore guidance. - **Integrated into preflight checks** β€” preflight now warns/fails when lock settings are insufficient and provides exact remediation commands and recommended restore flags (e.g. `--jobs 1 --parallel-dbs 1`). - **Implemented in Go (replaces `verify_postgres_locks.sh`)** with robust parsing, sudo/`psql` fallback and unit-tested decision logic. - **Files:** `cmd/verify_locks.go`, `internal/checks/locks.go`, `internal/checks/locks_test.go`, `internal/checks/preflight.go`. - **Why:** Prevents repeated parallel-restore failures by surfacing lock-capacity issues early and providing bulletproof guidance. ## [3.42.74] - 2026-01-20 "Resource Profile System + Critical Ctrl+C Fix" ### Critical Bug Fix - **Fixed Ctrl+C not working in TUI backup/restore** - Context cancellation was broken in TUI mode - `executeBackupWithTUIProgress()` and `executeRestoreWithTUIProgress()` created new contexts with `WithCancel(parentCtx)` - When user pressed Ctrl+C, `model.cancel()` was called on parent context but execution had separate context - Fixed by using parent context directly instead of creating new one - Ctrl+C/ESC/q now properly propagate cancellation to running operations - Users can now interrupt long-running TUI operations ### Added - Resource Profile System - **`--profile` flag for restore operations** with three presets: - **Conservative** (`--profile=conservative`): Single-threaded (`--parallel=1`), minimal memory usage - Best for resource-constrained servers, shared hosting, or when "out of shared memory" errors occur - Automatically enables `LargeDBMode` for better resource management - **Balanced** (default): Auto-detect resources, moderate parallelism - Good default for most scenarios - **Aggressive** (`--profile=aggressive`): Maximum parallelism, all available resources - Best for dedicated database servers with ample resources - **Potato** (`--profile=potato`): Easter egg, same as conservative - **Profile system applies to both CLI and TUI**: - CLI: `dbbackup restore cluster backup.tar.gz --profile=conservative --confirm` - TUI: Automatically uses conservative profile for safer interactive operation - **User overrides supported**: `--jobs` and `--parallel-dbs` flags override profile settings - **New `internal/config/profile.go`** module: - `GetRestoreProfile(name)` - Returns profile settings - `ApplyProfile(cfg, profile, jobs, parallelDBs)` - Applies profile with overrides - `GetProfileDescription(name)` - Human-readable descriptions - `ListProfiles()` - All available profiles ### Added - PostgreSQL Diagnostic Tools - **`diagnose_postgres_memory.sh`** - Comprehensive memory and resource analysis script: - System memory overview with usage percentages and warnings - Top 15 memory consuming processes - PostgreSQL-specific memory configuration analysis -

Profile system respects explicit user flags (`--jobs`, `--parallel-dbs`) - Conservative profile sets `cfg.LargeDBMode = true` automatically - TUI profile selection logged when `Debug` mode enabled - All profiles support both single and cluster restore operations ## [3.42.50] - 2026-01-16 "Ctrl+C Signal Handling Fix" ### Fixed - Proper Ctrl+C/SIGINT Handling in TUI - **Added tea.InterruptMsg handling** - Bubbletea v1.3+ sends `InterruptMsg` for SIGINT signals instead of a `KeyMsg` with "ctrl+c", causing cancellation to not work - **Fixed cluster restore cancellation** - Ctrl+C now properly cancels running restore operations - **Fixed cluster backup cancellation** - Ctrl+C now properly cancels running backup operations - **Added interrupt handling to main menu** - Proper cleanup on SIGINT from menu - **Orphaned process cleanup** - `cleanup.KillOrphanedProcesses()` called on all interrupt paths ### Changed - All TUI execution views now handle both `tea.KeyMsg` ("ctrl+c") and `tea.InterruptMsg` - Context cancellation properly propagates to child processes via `exec.CommandContext` - No zombie pg_dump/pg_restore/gzip processes left behind on cancellation ## [3.42.49] - 2026-01-16 "Unified Cluster Backup Progress" ### Added -

Phase 1/3: Extracting Archive (0-60% of overall) - Phase 2/3: Restoring Globals (60-65% of overall) - Phase 3/3: Restoring Databases (65-100% of overall) - **Current database indicator** - Shows which database is currently being restored - **Phase-aware progress tracking** - New fields in progress state: - `overallPhase` - Current phase (1=extraction, 2=globals, 3=databases) - `currentDB` - Name of database currently being restored - `extractionDone` - Boolean flag for phase transition - **Dual progress bars** for cluster restore: - Overall progress bar showing combined operation progress - Phase-specific progress bar (extraction bytes or database count) ### Changed - Cluster restore TUI now shows unified progress display - Progress callbacks now set phase and current database information - Extraction completion triggers automatic transition to globals phase - Database restore phase shows current database name with spinner ### Improved - Better visual feedback during entire cluster restore operation - Clear phase indicators help users understand restore progress - Overall progress percentage gives better time estimates ## [3.42.35] - 2026-01-15 "TUI Detailed Progress" ### Added - Enhanced TUI Progress Display - **Detailed progress bar in TUI restore** - schollz-style progress bar with: - Byte progress display (e.g., `245 MB / 1.2 GB`) -

2026-01-08 "Deadlock Killer" ### Fixed - Backup Command Context Handling **Critical Bug: pg_dump/mysqldump could hang forever on context cancellation** The `executeCommand`, `executeCommandWithProgress`, `executeMySQLWithProgressAndCompression`, and `executeMySQLWithCompression` functions had a race condition where: 1. A goroutine was spawned to read stderr 2. `cmd.Wait()` was called directly 3. If context was cancelled, the process was NOT killed 4. The goroutine could hang forever waiting for stderr **Fix**: All backup execution functions now use proper channel-based context handling: ```go // Wait for command with context handling cmdDone := make(chan error, 1) go func() { cmdDone <- cmd.Wait() }() select { case cmdErr = <-cmdDone: // Command completed case <-ctx.Done(): // Context cancelled - kill process cmd.Process.Kill() <-cmdDone cmdErr = ctx.Err() } ``` **Affected Functions:** - `executeCommand()` - pg_dump for cluster backup - `executeCommandWithProgress()` - pg_dump for single backup with progress - `executeMySQLWithProgressAndCompression()` - mysqldump pipeline - `executeMySQLWithCompression()` - mysqldump pipeline **This fixes:** Backup operations hanging indefinitely when cancelled or timing out. ## [3.42.5] - 2026-01-08 "False Positive Fix" ### Fixed - Encryption Detection Bug **IsBackupEncrypted False Positive:** - **BUG FIX**: `IsBackupEncrypted()` returned `true` for ALL files, blocking normal restores - Root cause: Fallback logic checked if first 12 bytes (nonce size) could be read - always true - Fix: Now properly detects known unencrypted formats by magic bytes: - Gzip: `1f 8b` - PostgreSQL custom: `PGDMP` - Plain SQL: starts with `--`, `SET`, `CREATE` - Returns `false` if no metadata present and format is recognized as unencrypted - Affected file: `internal/backup/encryption.go` ## [3.42.4] - 2026-01-08 "The Long Haul" ### Fixed - Critical Restore Timeout Bug **Removed Arbitrary Timeouts from Backup/Restore Operations:** - **CRITICAL FIX**: Removed 4-hour timeout that was killing large database restores - PostgreSQL cluster restores of 69GB+ databases no longer fail with "context deadline exceeded" - All backup/restore operations now use `context.WithCancel` instead of `context.WithTimeout` - Operations run until completion or manual cancellation (Ctrl+C) **Affected Files:** - `internal/tui/restore_exec.go`: Changed from 4-hour timeout to context.WithCancel - `internal/tui/backup_exec.go`: Changed from 4-hour timeout to context.WithCancel - `internal/backup/engine.go`: Removed per-database timeout in cluster backup - `cmd/restore.go`: CLI restore commands use context.WithCancel **exec.Command Context Audit:** - Fixed `exec.Command` without Context in `internal/restore/engine.go:730` - Added proper context handling to all external command calls - Added timeouts only for quick diagnostic/version checks (not restore path): - `restore/version_check.go`: 30s timeout for pg_restore --version check only - `restore/error_report.go`: 10s timeout for tool version detection - `restore/diagnose.go`: 60s timeout for diagnostic functions - `pitr/binlog.go`: 10s timeout for mysqlbinlog --version check - `cleanup/processes.go`: 5s timeout for process listing - `auth/helper.go`: 30s timeout for auth helper commands **Verification:** - 54 total `exec.CommandContext` calls verified in backup/restore/pitr path - 0 `exec.Command` without Context in critical restore path - All 14 PostgreSQL exec calls use CommandContext (pg_dump, pg_restore, psql) - All 15 MySQL/MariaDB exec calls use CommandContext (mysqldump, mysql, mysqlbinlog) - All 14 test packages pass ### Technical Details - Large Object (BLOB/BYTEA) restores are particularly affected by timeouts - 69GB database with large objects can take 5+ hours to restore - Previous 4-hour hard timeout was causing consistent failures - Now: No timeout - runs until complete or user cancels ## [3.42.1] - 2026-01-07 "Resistance is Futile" ### Added - Content-Defined Chunking Deduplication **Deduplication Engine:** - New `dbbackup dedup` command family for space-efficient backups -

New `dbbackup metrics serve` command runs HTTP exporter on port 9399 - Metrics: `dbbackup_last_success_timestamp`, `dbbackup_rpo_seconds`, `dbbackup_backup_total`, etc. - Integration with node_exporter textfile collector - Metrics automatically updated via ExecStopPost in service units - `--with-metrics` flag during install sets up exporter as systemd service **New Commands:** ```bash # Install as systemd service sudo dbbackup install --backup-type cluster --schedule daily # Install with Prometheus metrics sudo dbbackup install --with-metrics --metrics-port 9399 # Check installation status dbbackup install --status # Export metrics for node_exporter dbbackup metrics export --output /var/lib/dbbackup/metrics/dbbackup.prom # Run HTTP metrics server dbbackup metrics serve --port 9399 ``` ### Technical Details - Systemd templates embedded with `//go:embed` for self-contained binary - Templates use ReadWritePaths for security isolation - Service units include proper OOMScoreAdjust (-100) to protect backups - Metrics exporter caches with 30-second TTL for performance - Graceful shutdown on SIGTERM for metrics server --- ## [3.41.0] - 2026-01-07 "The Pre-Flight Check" ### Added - Pre-Restore Validation **Automatic Dump Validation Before Restore:** - SQL dump files are now validated BEFORE attempting restore - Detects truncated COPY blocks that cause "syntax error" failures - Catches corrupted backups in seconds instead of wasting 49+ minutes - Cluster restore pre-validates ALL dumps upfront (fail-fast approach) - Custom format `.dump` files now validated with `pg_restore --list` **Improved Error Messages:** - Clear indication when dump file is truncated - Shows which table's COPY block was interrupted - Displays sample orphaned data for diagnosis -

**P0: Data Race** - Fixed concurrent goroutines appending to shared error slice in notification manager; now uses mutex synchronization - **P0: psql ON_ERROR_STOP** - Added `-v ON_ERROR_STOP=1` to psql commands to fail fast on first error instead of accumulating millions of errors - **P1: Pipe deadlock** - Fixed streaming compression deadlock when pg_dump blocks on full pipe buffer; now uses goroutine with proper context timeout handling - **P1: SIGPIPE handling** - Detect exit code 141 (broken pipe) and report compressor failure as root cause - **P2: .dump validation** - Custom format dumps now validated with `pg_restore --list` before restore - **P2: fsync durability** - Added `outFile.Sync()` after streaming compression to prevent truncation on power loss - Truncated `.sql.gz` dumps no longer waste hours on doomed restores - "syntax error at or near" errors now caught before restore begins - Cluster restores abort immediately if any dump is corrupted ### Technical Details - Integrated `Diagnoser` into restore pipeline for pre-validation - Added `quickValidateSQLDump()` for fast integrity checks - Pre-validation runs on all `.sql.gz` and `.dump` files in cluster archives - Streaming compression uses channel-based wait with context cancellation - Zero performance impact on valid backups (diagnosis is fast) --- ## [3.40.0] - 2026-01-05 "The Diagnostician" ### Added - Restore Diagnostics & Error Reporting **Backup Diagnosis Command:** -
