I have some more information.
I changed the Client Run Before Job to just Run Before Job, and this works as expected. The problem is specific to Client Run Before Job. This doesn't really help me though since I will need to use this when running the backup of a remote database.
Please, does anyone use variable expansion in ClientRunBeforeJob version 1.36.2 and does it work as expected? Is there something I'm doing obviously wrong?
Thanks,
Tom

Hello everyone,
I'm having trouble trying to get the variable expansion working right in my ClientRunBeforeJob line. Here is what the line is right now for my job:
Client Run Before Job = "su - mercuryd -c \"/u01/mercuryd/backupdb.sh '%t' '%l'\""
I want my backup script to do different things depending on whether I'm doing a Backup, or Restore, and whether the level is Full or Incremental. I figured the above 2 arguments will do that quite nicely. However, my shell script isn't receiving the arguments I'm expecting. When a Job is run from the Schedule automatically, my shell script will receive the following arguments: 'Unknown Type' ''
If I run my job manually, without modifications I get the same results as if it was run automatically. If I run my job manually and set the level to either Full or Incremental (for example, Full), I get the following: 'Unknown Type' 'Full'
Can anybody help me in determining what I'm doing wrong? How can I get the expected arguments to be sent to my shell script?
Thanks,
Tom
