This is an update to let everyone know this is working well. I set the
retry for every hour so that I could catch the machines that are only on a
few hours a day.
I also set up a ping script that is called before all jobs:
#!/bin/sh
host=`echo $1 | sed -e 's/-fd//'`
ping -c 1 $host
exit $?
The
Thanks again. This seems to work very well!
I am trying to run a ping script before as well, although it needs some work

One more thing to consider is the Run Before Job directive. I had the
problem that a downed client meant Bacula would hang for something like 40

Hi Steve,
You can use this options i
I am backing up several machines, but a couple of them are only on about 10%
of the day. Is there any kind of option on the daily backups to have it
