Hi everybody,
i'm trying to pass the since time as a parameter to my client side script before running the job.
the user guide says that the related substitution character is "%s".
now, i know that not every variable expansion can be done on client side, in fact the user guide specifies that list:
%% = %
%b = Job Bytes
%c = Client's name
%d = Daemon's name (Such as host-dir or host-fd)
%D = Director's name (Also valid on file daemon)
%e = Job Exit Status
%f = Job FileSet (Only on director side)
%F = Job Files
%h = Client address
%i = JobId
%j = Unique Job id
%l = Job Level
%n = Job name
%p = Pool name (Only on director side)
%s = Since time
%t = Job type (Backup, ...)
%v = Volume name (Only on director side)
%w = Storage name (Only on director side)
%x = Spooling enabled? ("yes" or "no")
as you see %s is not only on directory side.
despite of that the expansion occurs correctly only with Run Before Job and not with Client Run Before Job.
with the Client Run it always returns "*none*".
with the server side Run it returns "0000-00-00 00:00:00" while scheduling full backups and the correct relative data when scheduling incremental and differential ones.
i'm using bacula 5.0.2-2.2+squeeze1.
am i missing something or it is just a bug?
thank in advance for your help.
