Hehe, I think lots of people reinvent that wheel, I also wrote a little bash oneliner to stagger schedules over days/weeks: i=0; for srv in $(cat /tmp/servers.txt); do let i++; let j=(i-1)/7+1; let k=($j-1)*7; let dayno=$i-$k; let p=($j-1)/4; let q=$p*4; let weekno=$j-$q; let tmp=8-$dayno; mainday=$(date +%a --date=$tmp day ago | sed -r 's/(.*)/\L\1\E/'); let tmp=7-$dayno; firstday=$(date +%a --date=$tmp day ago | sed -r 's/(.*)/\L\1\E/'); let tmp=9-$dayno; lastday=$(date +%a --date=$tmp day ago | sed -r 's/(.*)/\L\1\E/'); case $weekno in 1) fullweek=1st; diffweek=2nd-5th;; 2) fullweek=2nd; diffweek=3rd-1st;; 3) fullweek=3rd; diffweek=4th-2nd;; 4) fullweek=4th; diffweek=5th-3rd;; esac; sed -i s+HOSTNAME+$srv+;s+Full 1st fri+Full $fullweek $mainday+;s+2nd-5th fri+$diffweek $mainday+;s+sat-thu+$firstday-$lastday+ schedules/$srv.schedule; done /tmp/servers.txt has a hostname on each line, and I include schedules using the @/etc/bacula/schedules/hostname.schedule format in bacula-dir.conf. The above expects existing dummy schedule files containing 'HOSTNAME', 'Full 1st fri' etc. strings, see the sed stuff, this can be created easily with another for loop copying a sample file. -- Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users

Re: [Bacula-users] How to force a full backup?
Funny you say that. Yes, your version is shorted and will work. I
actually used to have it that way.
The reason I changed to the longer version is that now the schedule file
is generated by a script, it's basically a simple for loop that
generates it. One thing this lets me do is easily generate different
scheduled so that the full backups are staggered for different clients,
and the differentials always happen 7 days after the fulls.
