Hi, I found no solution to do that.
What I think is to have a script on my virtualization cluster that returns the value of the Bacula client that the job should use. My first question is : How can I tell bacula to choose dynamically the client according to the result of a script ? My second question is : Can I safely/often change the client of a job without having bacula going bad ? Does a client change will create a rupture in my backups ? ( eg: Upgrading an incremental to full ) If someone have some idea, that would be very cool !
