"Client Initiated Connection" is the way to go, but not enough.

The slide "When Client is present, trigger backup" at
https://fosdem.org/2017/schedule/event/backup_dr_bareos_scripting/attachments/slides/1445/export/events/attachments/backup_dr_bareos_scripting/slides/1445/Interacting_with_Bareos.pdf

shows a way to solve it.
