Mucking around with the console I noticed I could set the level of a
backup job to "Base" or "Since". There is some mention of "Base"
backups as being vaporware as of 1.30 within the FAQ, but otherwise
the manual doesn't seem to have that much on these options.

I've searched through the documentation and there seems to be fairly

anything" beyond launching admin scripts. It seems that I can run
scripts on the director using them, but if I try to run them on

I know you can set up jobs with a across-director priority number,
but I'm wondering if it is possible to prioritize jobs on a per-
client basis. Specifically, I have job(defs) for job A and job B, and
I need A jobs to always run before B jobs for each.

Followup: No, the final humungous file wasn't broken up at the end of
the run.
Either "Maximum File Size" is broken, I'm reading the documentation
wrong, or I've missed some necessary

I haven't enabled spooling--I'm backing up to a plain old file on the

Maybe I should be actually posting this to the dev list on account of
the version being fresh out of the oven...
Anyway, I have a weird problem going on. Both the storage daemon and
the sole client are set up with a heartbeat interval (30 seconds),
but the backup always dies five minutes
