Hi List,

I have a couple of informix databases that I would like to backup. The _informix_ backup schedule (so _not_ the bareos one) is as follows:

- once a month a level 0
- once a week a level 1 (differential)
- every hour an rsync of the binary (logical) logs

I am considering using a "Client Run Before Job" to initiate the informix backup. This informix backup can take up to 1 hour or more.

I have the following questions (that I could not find in the docs, maybe I didn't look well enough):

 * Is the fd reporting success or failure of the Client_Run_Before_Job
   to the director sync or async (will a network socket remain open
   during the run_before_job) ?
 * How long will the director wait for a Client_Run_Before_Job to finish ?
 * How is succes or failure detirmed ? Is that by exit status of the
   script that is run before that job ? The manual states "Fail job if
   script returns something different from 0". I assume that is an exit
   status, or is it a literal "0" ?


Thanks in advance,
Arjen Van Drie.
