Hello, Lloyd. This does not seem accurate to me. Catalog backup job works 
flawless with the same logic and I'm pretty sure Bacula client only scans the 
filesystem after before script is terminated.
Are you sure your before job script is not deleting the temporary file? 
If still in doubt maybe you can post your script here.
