Well, on a similar note, I have tried recursive JobDefs, since the
documentation seems to say JobDefs can have any setting a Job can
have... But it didn't really work. (And if it did work, it'd need a
check against cyclic inheritance.)
I a similar situation with lots of hosts I want to treat the same,
but I've been tackling it from a "use scripts to generate the
configuration data" angle, which while helpful also doesn't solve the
giant-job-list problem.
Perhaps if the bconsole 'run' command let you list within jobs for a
given client or jobs from a given jobdef or fileset? e.g.
>> run
Show jobs by:
1. Clients
2. Filesets
3. Parent JobDefs
4. List all
>> 1
Pick a client:
1. web
2. mail
3. web2
>> 2
Jobs for client web2:
[...]
More "easy to say, hard to code" what-iffage here:
What if Jobs required either a client or a clientgroup directive. A
clientgroup is simply a collection of clients or other clientgroups.
It'd basically be a shortcut for lots of Job definitions where only
the client line changes, but scheduling etc. is the same.
