And the point I meant to add here is that if the selection query for a job is evaluated when a job is QUEUED, not when it STARTS, then by the time the job actually STARTS, the results of its selection query may very well not be valid any more. This may result in trying to back up files that no longer exist or copy jobs from media that has already been sent offsite (to name but two example scenarios). -- Phil Stracchino Babylon Communications ph...@caerllewys.net p...@co.ordinate.org Landline: +1.603.293.8485 Mobile: +1.603.998.6958 _______________________________________________ Bacula-devel mailing list Bacula-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-devel
