That's because treating the semicolon as a command separator is a function of
the shell. The problem isn't that you're not escaping the shell characters,
the problem is that there's no shell there to treat them as special characters
in the first place. From the RunScript section of
http://bacula.org/en/rel-manual/Configuring_Director.html#SECTION001430000000000000000

In addition, the command string is parsed then fed to the OS, which means that
the path will be searched to execute your specified command, but there is no
shell interpretation, as a consequence, if you invoke complicated commands or
want any shell features such as redirection or piping, you must call a shell
script and do it inside that script.
