Might be just as easy to create a job of type "Admin" that starts before your
Backup job and with a higher priority that just Waes all of your machines in a
Runbefore Job.
Admin type jobs have no Client. Here's an example that I use:
Job {
Name = UpdateSlots
JobDefs = Defaults
Client = None
Type = Admin
FileSet = None
Priority = 8
RunScript {
RunsWhen = Before
RunsOnClient = no
Fail Job On Error = no
Command = "/etc/bacula/include/scripts/auto_enable_disable_vols.sh"
Command = "/etc/bacula/include/scripts/runbefore-updateslots.sh"
}
}
Hope this helps.
