I presume the OP refers to things like Windows VSS system imaging. If 
so, I'd *love* this - I'm now saddled with a win2k8 server, and am 
having to manage its disaster recovery backups outside Bacula :-(

Guess I should look at how hard it'd be to code, once I finally get 
around to finishing testing the hwcrypto patch.

"batch mode" refers to "non-blocking and non-interactive", ie at no 
point will it pause waiting for input.
