Is that part of why my archive copy job creates so much noise in my Director messages? :) > Radosław, you didn't answer Martin's question: Can you describe a > realistic case where it is ever better for the user that a Copy job > evaluate its selection criteria when it is queued, rather than when it > actually starts? > > > I show you my case.

Does it work BETTER than evaluating at start time? I may consider that approach and see if it works around the problem I'm encountering, but I suspect it means vast amounts of message noise unless I tell the Director not to send notifications on copy jobs, and then I presume I will miss copy failure notices. -- 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
