Hi

Why 3 Jobdefs, you only need 1.

You can put in your job resource :

Job{
Name = mark-LD800-fd
...
Schedule = "DaytimeWkDay"
...
}

Best regards

The JobDefs Resource

The JobDefs resource permits all the same directives that can appear in a Job resource. However, a JobDefs resource does not create a Job, rather it can be referenced within a Job to provide defaults for that Job. This permits you to concisely define several nearly identical Jobs, each one referencing a JobDefs resource which contains the defaults. Only the changes from the defaults need to be mentioned in each Job.

I am using Linux Cinnamon Mint 18.1, and recently installed / set up Bacula version 7.0.5 using Synaptic.  I have it configured, and have backed up three Client computers in my local network without issues.

I made a new schedule called "DaytimeWkDay" to back up three other computers in my possession at shortly after noon (12:35 PM) that are not running 24 hours a day.  I added the schedules to the subject Client machines in bacula-dir.conf, but the "Status, Scheduled" in console still shows "WeeklyCycle" for these machines.

How do I get the console to run these machines on the DaytimeWkDay schedule?

Below are some relevant settings from bacula-dir.conf:

Client Definitions for subject Client machines:
Client {
  Name = mark-LD800-fd
  Address = 192.168.1.26
  FDPort = 9102
  Catalog = MyCatalog
  Password = "password deleted"
  File Retention = 60 days
  Job Retention = 6 months
  AutoPrune = yes
}

Client {
  Name = kristi-Gw-fd
  Address = 192.168.1.101
  FDPort = 9102
  Catalog = MyCatalog
  Password = "password deleted"
  File Retention = 60 days
  Job Retention = 6 months
  AutoPrune = yes
}

Client {
  Name = mark-Inspiron-3537-fd
  Address = 192.168.1.25
  FDPort = 9102
  Catalog = MyCatalog
  Password = "password deleted"
  File Retention = 60 days
  Job Retention = 6 months
  AutoPrune = yes
}

Schedule Definition:
Schedule {
  Name = "DaytimeWkDay"
  Run = Level=Full Pool=DtFull 1st mon at 12:35
  Run = Level=Differential Pool=DtDiff 2nd-5th mon at 12:35
  Run = Level=Incremental Pool=DtDaily mon-fri at 12:35
}

Job Definitions for the subject Client machines:
JobDefs {
  Name = "mark-LD800"
  Type = Backup
  Level = Incremental
  Client = mark-LD800-fd
  FileSet = "Full Set"
  Schedule = "DaytimeWkDay"
  Storage = File1
  Messages = Standard
  Pool = File
  SpoolAttributes = yes
  Priority = 10
  Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/%c.bsr"
}

JobDefs {
  Name = "kristi-Gw-fd"
  Type = Backup
  Level = Incremental
  Client = krists-Gw-fd
  FileSet = "Full Set"
  Schedule = "DaytimeWkDay"
  Storage = File1
  Messages = Standard
  Pool = File
  SpoolAttributes = yes
  Priority = 10
  Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/%c.bsr"
}

JobDefs {
  Name = "mark-Inspiron-3537-fd"
  Type = Backup
  Level = Incremental
  Client = mark-Inspiron-3537-fd
  FileSet = "Full Set"
  Schedule = "DaytimeWkDay"
  Storage = File1
  Messages = Standard
  Pool = File
  SpoolAttributes = yes
  Priority = 10
  Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/%c.bsr"
}
