Could you use a backup_exit_notify script to capture what you're
looking for? I have good luck getting job IDs that way doing:

JOBID=`bperror -client $1 -hoursago 1 \
        | grep "POLICY $2" | grep "SCHED $3" | grep "EXIT STATUS $5" \
        | tail -n1 | awk '{print $6}'`

which, essentially, gets the job ID of the last job that finished for
the client, policy, and schedule for the job that the script is
running for (I know, I could probably collapse all those grep's into
one - this is an olde piece of code).
