I know that bacula uses "mount" an "unmount" terminology internally
and that his is something different than mounting a filesystem.
Nevertheless bacula supports storage on filesystems and so, might
use the words "mount" and "unmount" for what it means in the system
environment as well.
And when I read the docs it seems to confirm my assumption:
"Requires Mount = Yes|No
When this directive is enabled, the Storage daemon will submit a
Mount Command before attempting to open the device. You must set
this directive to yes for DVD-writers and removable file systems
such as USB devices that are not automatically mounted by the
operating system when plugged in or opened by Bacula. [...]"
"Mount Point = directory
..."
"Mount Command = name-string
This directive specifies the command that must be executed to
mount devices such as DVDs and many USB devices. [...]"
"Unmount Command = name-string
This directive specifies the command that must be executed to
unmount devices such as DVDs and many USB devices."
And the examples use "/bin/mount" and so on so this *might* really
have to do something with what I want to do, right? ;-)

That is really interesting, but not what I need in my case here.
