Hi Heitor,

Redschedule on Error is the first part of the picture, yes. I’m not sure how I 
missed that.
The second part would ideally check for past jobs in case of director 
unavailability. So if the director is not running when the job is scheduled, 
that it would automatically recognize a higher-order job that has not run, and 
schedule that, instead of an Incremental.

But I’ve found:
Max Full Interval = time
The time specifies the maximum allowed age (counting from start time) of the 
most recent successful Full backup that is required in order to run Incremental 
or Differential backup jobs. If the most recent Full backup is older than this 
interval, Incremental and Differential backups will be upgraded to Full backups 
automatically. If this directive is not present, or specified as 0, then the 
age of the previous Full backup is not considered.

which we can use to ensure our full backups are never too old.

Thank you!

Kind regards,

Betreff: Re: [Bacula-users] Repeat scheduled backup on error

Hi,
Hello Rolf,

Is it possible to automatically repeat a higher-level job on a different day 
than it was initially scheduled?
I.e. If a Full-Backup scheduled for Sunday did not complete successfully, can 
bacula automatically recognize this and repeat the Full-Backup on Monday, even 
though an Incremental was scheduled?
I could make use of an external scheduler, if bacula cannot do this 
automatically, but I’d like to keep complexity down, if possible.
I’ve been unable to find anything about this in the documentation, so thought 
to ask here.
Please verify:

Reschedule On Error = yes|no If this directive is enabled, and the job 
terminates in error, the job will be rescheduled as determined by the 
Reschedule Interval and Reschedule Times directives. If you cancel the job, it 
will not be rescheduled. The default is no (i.e. the job will not be 
rescheduled).

This specification can be useful for portables, laptops, or other machines that 
are not always connected to the network or switched on.


Reschedule Incomplete Jobs = yes|no

If this directive is enabled, and the job terminates in incomplete status, the 
job will be rescheduled as determined by the Reschedule Interval and Reschedule 
Times directives. If you cancel the job, it will not be rescheduled. The 
default is yes (i.e. Incomplete jobs will be rescheduled).


Reschedule Interval = time-specification If you have specified Reschedule On 
Error = yes and the job terminates in error, it will be rescheduled after the 
interval of time specified by time-specification. See the time specification 
formatsTime in the Configure chapter for details of time specifications. If no 
interval is specified, the job will not be rescheduled on error. The default 
Reschedule Interval is 30 minutes (1800 seconds).


Reschedule Times = count This directive specifies the maximum number of times 
to reschedule the job. If it is set to zero (the default) the job will be 
rescheduled an indefinite number of times.
