For a while I had such a setup, where I used RunAfterJob to run a script
containing something like this:
bconsole <<EOF
restore client=machine-cycle-fd restoreclient=machine-cycle-fd
fileset=machine-cycle-fileset select current all done
5
yes
quit
EOF
The '5' selects the right restore job definitions on my setup, 'yes'
confirms that the job parameters are correct and 'quit' exits bconsole.
The restore job looked like this (note the 'ifnewer'):
Job {
Name = snapshot-restore-job
Type = Restore
Storage = File
Messages = Standard
RunBeforeJob = "/etc/bacula/scripts/run-before-job.sh %n"
RunAfterJob = "/etc/bacula/scripts/run-after-job.sh %n"
Client = machine-cycle-fd
FileSet = machine-cycle-fileset
Pool = machine-cycle-pool
Full Backup Pool = machine-cycle-full-pool
Where = /mnt/gigapod/data/snapshot
Replace = ifnewer
}
Mind you, this is bacula 3.0 and I used an admin job for the task, but
something along these lines would probably work with 1.38 from within a
regular backup job. I expect that the restore command would be somewhat
trickier to run too (you may need to emulate interaction in order to
modify the restore client, etc.)
Hope this helps,
Avi.
