Bacula 7.4.2
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
LTO-3 Scsi 

I am a recent adopter of bacula, and am still in the throws of getting it to do 
things as i think i would like.  My main full backup takes three tapes and the 
issue i would like help with is managing messages that tell me “Please mount 
append Volume “xxxx” or label a new one etc etc” - these currently come at a 
frequency of every 5 seconds - - i was looking for a solution that would give 
me gradually increasing intervals so that bacula does not flood our operator 
mail boxs (we use a human changer).

I note that i can set “TAPEDELAY” which i presume will give me some static 
control 

The only way i can see to approach this is to use the “Messages” 
“operatorcommand” and set up a shell script to do what i want which is send 
messages at the following intervals  0, 10, 30, 60, 120, 240 etc up to the 
timeout value which is currently 3d.

Is this a sensible solution or am i missing something in bacula which will do 
this.
