What about a script that ping the specific ip or name (e.g. 192.168.1.2 or client1.work) and then, when the first ping response, start the backup with the command bconsole etc? I think this could work, but i'm not happy with this solution. Too much overhead maybe? And potentially too much ICMP packets around. And what if the laptop disconnects? If the job is started i think i end up with a huge error.
I'm start to think that bacula isn't supposed to be used in such enviroment. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by marco.za...@gmail.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
