If you are trying to deal with laptops that users take in and out of
the office, then look into the "Reschedule On Error" directive for the
Job
I'm already doing this: sooner or later rescheduling will find each
client up, but this is useless if it's powered down again before the
job finishes.
When I had similar requirement, I used "Reschedule On Error" as Josh
already suggested.
I also created a small script and configured user's desktop so that they
can execute
a script by double-clicking the icon on their desktop.
A script would then run a job using bconsole tool.
I remember that I had to configure bacula to allow only certain commands
for certain
bacula console. In that case, special console resource was configured to
allow only
few commands needed to run certain backup job.
That allowed me to provide users with the ability to run a job by
themselves, at the
time they like, while still preventing users to perform any other
commands that could
endanger backed up data.
Unfortunately, I used that configuration a long time ago and I can't
provide detailed
configuration example.
