-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Also, And the thought came up AFTER I hit the "send" button from my last eMail: If I have scripts on the clients which will "run" their appropiate backups scripts on the console.. So a client connects, sends the run command and makes an incremental backup, in accordance with the job in the dir-conf. Is it possible to trigger, once in a while, without user intervention, to make a full backup?
Not easily. Perhaps with pytho scripts integrated into Bacula that's possible. I don't know if the developer manual offers any information on the scripting possibilities.
Idealy this would be possible, with or without scripts: 1st sunday in a month: full backup of each client. then, weekly, incremental to that. Now, a script would "hammer" the server on a daily basis, or with multiple restarts, several times per day.
If most of the backups "hammered" are not actually executed that would be no problem... and, of course, you shouldn't restart your servers that often!
;-)
It really would be way better if the server would initiate the connection and retry until success.
Yes.
