Very cool. I read about the admin type but actually misunderstood the purpose (I thought it necessarily had to perform some type of administrative bacula task). I'll give it a try!

If I understand you correctly, you'd use two admin jobs: One scheduled a minute before the first backup job, the other a minute after the last backup. Those admin jobs can execute commands like regular jobs - that's their main purpose - and if you set the priority numerically lower and higher, respectively, than the backup jobs, the order should be correct.
