Glll. Typo. Should have been "w00 202 [...]" in the second case, of 
course.

Of course it does. Stupid me.

We are trying to generate Bacula schedules from other means of 
configuration. Considering a little more interesting backup strategies, 
the Bacula schedule configuration statements lack a means of "negating" 
points of time - or a "either/or" semantics as described here.

In one point or another, I'll have to remove redundant "run" 
statements - either in our generating code, or somehow/somewhere inside 
Bacula. Both seem to be valid choices; I am currently examining them.

It is perfectly legal (and sensible) to run a job e.g. "once a month" 
(1st mon) to one pool, and "every day" to another pool. Currently, one 
would need to use one "tue-sun" plus one "2nd 3rd 4th 5th mon" 
statement. If run statements in schedules were exclusive (given they 
would be run at an identical time), the configuration would be less 
complicated. I may be wrong, but I don't see much of a point in running 
the same job (just different levels and pools) twice at the same time.

On the other hand, as I said: the problem can be circumvented with a 
little more complex configurations.

Thx
