If you have 50 clients, you define 50 jobs, yes. You can use JobDefs records to set up all the common data for the jobs, then each client's Job just needs to reference that JobDefs record and set any specific options it needs. You CAN run all the jobs manually, but the settings for each job include a reference to a Schedule resource that tells when that job should be run and at what level. Once it's all set up, the Director handles everything for you except switching tapes (and you may never need to manually do even that, if you have an autochanger and a robotic tape library). -- Phil Stracchino [EMAIL PROTECTED] Renaissance Man, Unix generalist, Perl hacker Mobile: 603-216-7037 Landline: 603-886-3518 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Power Architecture Resource Center: Free content, downloads, discussions, and more. http://solutions.newsforge.com/ibmarch.tmpl _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
