Hi all,
 
my name is Torsten, I'm new to the list.
 
I'm using Bacula 1.36.3-2 from the Ubuntu 5.10 dist.
 
I've installed bacula and got it to work with a server and a laptop. Now my questions are those:
 
1) Can I specify a schedule that says: "Backup at 12:00 midnight OR THE NEXT POSSIBLE OCCASION"? My notebook is not always connected to the server, so the backup is likely to fail often if I specify a rigid date. Is this possible?
Might be obvious to answer but I didn't find it in the manual explicitely...
 
2) >From the manual and the tutorial I've learned that the Clients are instructed from the central director. So the director (on the server) knows which directories and files it should back up on connected clients.
 
Is it possible that a client can add to this information, so that users can have a file on their notebooks (or PC's) that lists additional ressources that should be saved to the storage pool? I would not want to keep the information for all the clients in a single place.
 
Thanks for your help,
 
Torsten.
