Re: [Bacula-users] dynamic fileset and /usr/global
Thanks Uwe, Well, I have done it the other way round. I am now calling the ClientRunBeforeJob script in the Fileset's File directive first, and then calling the actual dynamic file set creation script. This has worked !

A workaround would be to create the fileset in your "RunBeforeJob" script, this way you could order the tasks around as you need them. We use a few "dynamic" filesets in our setup too, but they're only dynamic in as far as they point to static files on the client containing the files and directories to back up. These files get created dynamically and are then included in the client's fileset using the "< /var/tmp/fileset.txt" mechanism.

Re: [Bacula-users] dynamic fileset and /usr/global
Hello Bill, "Currently, it is "working as designed, but not as I expect it to"™ :)" IMHO the FileSet script hack should not work after the BeforeJob RubScript. I don't think it isnt even possible to make such a Bacula code change without a lot of effort. It is specifically that characteristic that allows (e.g.) dynamic FileSet's contents generation.

Re: [Bacula-users] dynamic fileset and /usr/global
Thanks Heitor, If I can call two fileset scripts on client one after another, that should solve the problem.

[Bacula-users] dynamic fileset and /usr/global
Hi, We are using Bacula 9.4.4 on Centos. We use dynamic fileset using a script executed on the client. Also there is a clientRunBeforeJob script. But we found that the dynamic fileset script is executed first and then the clientRunBeforeJob script. We need to have it the other way round. How to accomplish it ? -Yateen ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
