Hi Björn, do you have a your code on i.e. github so that I can take a look on it or is it restricted? I use Foreman for the backup definition, I have global smart parameters setting with file-fd to true and a configuration group backup-client. All hosts that belong to this configuration group get the client installed and activated. On the director host I add the clients I would like to backup. This result in a standard set of files, for upcoming versions I plan to make something like backup class gold, silver, bronze with different retention times and a scope type of thing for different filesets. But this is not yet implemented, not enough time. Maybe adding some functionality in the future like, there is a backup client installed so a basic, bronze set is scheduled in the backup might be a cool idea, but I guess it's not that easy to implement with focus on reusable modules and also with space management in mind.
