For example, if a volume is scheduled to recycle 12 hours after the job run (or after X jobs), I might want to verify that "tonight"'s volume has been pruned/recycled, "last night's" is marked "used", and things "look good" for tonight's backups before I run out to the pub. I guess I can script a non-interactive cron job that issues "status dir" every few hours and bumps it off to me.
