Hi,

I have a job that, once complete, involves removing a number of backed up files. How do I make sure the files are complete and on tape?

...With a Verify job, of course. Ok, so let's say my job name is "Log" and my verify job is "VerifyLog", with a Job entry in the bacula-dir file of: VerifyJob = "Log". Furthermore, my backup job's schedule is "SaturdayEvening" and its priority is "40". The Verify job shares the same schedule but its priority is 41.

So it should verify the very last Log job, and I should be happy.

What I want, though, is to *guarantee* to my manager that I verified the job that I expected to verify.

I notice that I can do an "llist jobid=NNNN" on a backup job and get some nice details, but this function will not tell me about Verify jobs. I also notice that the log file tells me that the Verify job knows which job it's verifying against, eg:

27-Sep 04:34 bacula-dir JobId 1521: Verifying against JobId=1520 Job=Captures.2015-09-27_04.00.00_42

I could grep the logs, but is there a bconsole function that I have yet to find?

Thanks.
