Exactly as I thought, thank you. I have each backup client in it's own
conf file and each client conf file included into the bacula-dir.conf.
So I created a new Messages resource in each client's conf file at the
top, named accordingly. I then changed the Messages field in each Job
resource to use the named Messages resource I created. Looks like it
should work. Bacula reloaded without complaint.
Sometimes Bacula is confusing, because it is so flexible the ability to
adjust it to your needs seem endless. But that flexibility is what makes
it worth while.
Thank you.

Three years now I've asked Google why they don't have a
logo change for Memorial Day. Why do they choose to do logos
for other non-international holidays, but nothing for
Veterans?
Maybe they forgot who made that choice possible.
