-  execute:
-
-    /home/kern/my-fifo.backup
-
-  and read the data that my-fifo.backup writes to stdout. For restore, Bacula
-  will execute:
-
-    /home/kern/my-fifo.restore
-
-  and send the data backed up to stdout. These programs can either be an
-  executable or a shell script and they need only read/write to stdin/stdout.

-  Type = Migrate

-  Pool = Default
-  Migration Selection Type = LowestUtil | OldestVol | PoolOccupancy |
-Client | PoolResidence | Volume | JobName | SQLquery
-  Migration Selection Pattern = "regexp"
-  Next Pool = <override>
-}
-
-There should be no need for a Level (migration is always Full, since you
-don't calculate differential/incremental differences for migration),
-Storage should be determined by the volume types in the pool, and Client
-is really a selection issue.  Migration should always occur to the
-NextPool defined in the pool definition. If no nextpool is defined, the
-job should end with a reason of "no place to go". If Next Pool statement
-is present, we override the check in the pool definition and use the
-pool specified. 
-
-Here's how I'd define Migration Selection Types: 
-
-With Regexes:
-Client  -- Migrate data from selected client only. Migration Selection
-Pattern regexp provides pattern to select client names, eg ^FS00* makes
-all client names starting with FS00 eligible for migration. 
-
-Jobname -- Migration all jobs matching name. Migration Selection Pattern
-regexp provides pattern to select jobnames existing in pool. 
-
-Volume -- Migrate all data on specified volumes. Migration Selection
-Pattern regexp provides selection criteria for volumes to be migrated.
-Volumes must exist in pool to be eligible for migration. 
-
-
-With Regex optional:
-LowestUtil -- Identify the volume in the pool with the least data on it
-and empty it. No Migration Selection Pattern required. 
-
-OldestVol -- Identify the LRU volume with data written, and empty it. No
-Migration Selection Pattern required. 
-
-PoolOccupancy -- if pool occupancy exceeds <highmig>, migrate volumes
-(starting with most full volumes) until pool occupancy drops below
-<lowmig>. Pool highmig and lowmig values are in pool definition, no
-Migration Selection Pattern required.
-
-
-No regex:
-SQLQuery -- Migrate all jobuids returned by the supplied SQL query.
-Migration Selection Pattern contains SQL query to execute; should return
-a list of 1 or more jobuids to migrate.
-
-PoolResidence -- Migrate data sitting in pool for longer than
-PoolResidence value in pool definition. Migration Selection Pattern
-optional; if specified, override value in pool definition (value in
-minutes).

-==== Keeping track of deleted/new files ====
-- To mark files as deleted, run essentially a Verify to disk, and
-  when a file is found missing (MarkId != JobId), then create
-  a new File record with FileIndex == -1. This could be done
-  by the FD at the same time as the backup.
-
-     My "trick" for keeping track of deletions is the following.
-     Assuming the user turns on this option, after all the files
-     have been backed up, but before the job has terminated, the
-     FD will make a pass through all the files and send their
-     names to the DIR (*exactly* the same as what a Verify job
-     currently does).  This will probably be done at the same
-     time the files are being sent to the SD avoiding a second
-     pass.  The DIR will then compare that to what is stored in
-     the catalog.  Any files in the catalog but not in what the
-     FD sent will receive a catalog File entry that indicates
-     that at that point in time the file was deleted. This
-     either transmitted to the FD or simultaneously computed in
-     the FD, so that the FD can put a record on the tape that
-     indicates that the file has been deleted at this point.
-     A delete file entry could potentially be one with a FileIndex
-     of 0 or perhaps -1 (need to check if FileIndex is used for
-     some other thing as many of the Bacula fields are "overloaded"
-     in the SD).
-
-     During a restore, any file initially picked up by some
-     backup (Full, ...) then subsequently having a File entry
-     marked "delete" will be removed from the tree, so will not
-     be restored.  If a file with the same name is later OK it
-     will be inserted in the tree -- this already happens.  All
-     will be consistent except for possible changes during the
-     running of the FD.
-
-     Since I'm on the subject, some of you may be wondering what
-     the utility of the in memory tree is if you are going to
-     restore everything (at least it comes up from time to time
-     on the list).  Well, it is still *very* useful because it
-     allows only the last item found for a particular filename
-     (full path) to be entered into the tree, and thus if a file
-     is backed up 10 times, only the last copy will be restored.
-     I recently (last Friday) restored a complete directory, and
-     the Full and all the Differential and Incremental backups
-     spanned 3 Volumes.  The first Volume was not even mounted
-     because all the files had been updated and hence backed up
-     since the Full backup was made.  In this case, the tree
-     saved me a *lot* of time.
-
-     Make sure this information is stored on the tape too so
-     that it can be restored directly from the tape.
-
-     All the code (with the exception of formally generating and
-     saving the delete file entries) already exists in the Verify
-     Catalog command.  It explicitly recognizes added/deleted files since
-     the last InitCatalog.  It is more or less a "simple" matter of
-     taking that code and adapting it slightly to work for backups.
-
-  Comments from Martin Simmons (I think they are all covered):
-  Ok, that should cover the basics.  There are few issues though:
-
-  - Restore will depend on the catalog.  I think it is better to include the
-  extra data in the backup as well, so it can be seen by bscan and bextract.
-
-  - I'm not sure if it will preserve multiple hard links to the same inode.  Or
-  maybe adding or removing links will cause the data to be dumped again?
-
-  - I'm not sure if it will handle renamed directories.  Possibly it will work
-  by dumping the whole tree under a renamed directory?
-
-  - It remains to be seen how the backup performance of the DIR's will be
-  affected when comparing the catalog for a large filesystem.
