Hello, I am wondering about the relationship between the default job and the general jobs for other clients that are configured.  It was impression that the default job sets the basic specifications, and that each job that is configured inherits the defaults parameters, and anything that is specified in a client job is an override off the default job?

 

The reason I ask, is I have in my default job:

 

JobDefs {

  Name = DefaultJob

  Type = Backup

  Level = Incremental

  Client = d0lppb021

  FileSet = "Standard Linux OS"

  Schedule = DailyCycle

  Storage = File

  Messages = Standard

  Pool = FullBackups

  Priority = 10

  Write Bootstrap = "/var/spool/bacula/%c.bsr"

  Enabled = No

  Reschedule On  Error = yes

  Reschedule Interval = 30 minutes

  Reschedule Times = 4

  Spool Data  = no

  Spool Attributes = yes

  Allow Higher Duplicates = no

  Allow Duplicate Jobs = no

  Cancel Queued Duplicates = yes

}

 

And then all my client jobs basically look like this:

Job {

  Name = "D0LPHB040 System Backups"

  Type = Backup

  Level = Full

  Client = d0lphb040

  FileSet = "Legacy Platform wData Backups"

  Schedule = DailyCycle

  Storage = File

  Pool = FullBackups

  Messages = Standard

  Priority = 30

}

 

However, I see that things like reschedule interval and reschedule times are not being honored, as today the job started at 7:45am (the client was down) and by 7:53 the job was terminated as failed.

 

So.. are settings supposed to be inherited, or am I supposed to be putting all lines in the jobs for all clients?

 

Thanks,
