Hi Florian

After a quick look, I'm pretty certain that would work as you expect.

For testing, if you add that schedule to your bacula-dir.conf, then in
bconsole issue a

* reload

Then:

* show schedules

or

* show schedule=${nameOfYourSchedule}

You will see when Bacula thinks that schedule should be run and at what level.
(keep in mind that this output is zero-based, so day 1 for example is actually
day 0)

I stuck a few comments inline

*show schedule=TestSchedule
Schedule: name=TestSchedule
  --> Run Level=Full
      hour=3
      mday=0   *<-- Run only on the first day of month*
      month=0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
      wday=0 1 2 3 4 5 6  *<--regardless of the day of week*
      wom=0 1 2 3 4 5
      woy=0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 --[snip]-- 50 51 52 53
      mins=0
  --> Run Level=Differential
      hour=3
      mday=1  --[snip]-- 30   *<-- run only on days 2-31*
      month=0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
      wday=0  *<--BUT... only if it is Sunday*
      wom=0 1 2 3 4 5
      woy=0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 --[snip]-- 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53
      mins=0
  --> Run Level=Incremental
      hour=3
      mday=1  --[snip]-- 30  *<-- run only on days 2-13*
      month=0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
      wday=1 2 3 4 5 6  *<--BUT... only if it is Mon-Sat*
      wom=0 1 2 3 4 5
      woy=0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 --[snip]-- 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53

So it seems like your schedule will work the way you want.


Also, there is a command:

* status director days=xx

which is supposed to output the next xx days (If I understand correctly) but
on a 5.2.13 and a separate 7.0.5 install I can not get it to output what I
expect to see.

If I do:

* status director days=30

It shows me tonight's scheduled jobs, two jobs from tomorrow morning, all of
Saturday's scheduled jobs followed by all the jobs to be run on February 7th.

I think I am off to file a bug report unless someone tells me the correct way
the days=xx is supposed to function. :)


Hope this helps!


Bill
