Summary0000504: possiblilitiy to suppress schedules / clients / jobs for certain time periods
DescriptionThere is no option to disable schedules at a certain point in time (e.g. holidays,etc).

Also, it is sometimes only needed to disable a schedule or job for a certain time.

I suggest the following enhancements:

1.: Scheduler:
   Create a Disabled entry which is similar to the Run Entry, only that if that time specification matches the execution is Suppressed.

2.: disable functionality.

   I suggest that we add something that can also suppress the run
   by add a Disabled entry like described above.


Examples:

Schedule {
  Name = "WeeklyCycle"
  Run = Full 1st sat at 21:00
  Run = Differential 2nd-5th sat at 21:00
  Run = Incremental mon-fri at 21:00

  Disabled = Dec 24-31 # do nothing during the holidays
}

Client {
  Name = client-fd
  Address = localhost
  Password = "12345" # password for FileDaemon
  File Retention = 30 days # 30 days
  Job Retention = 6 months # six months
  AutoPrune = no # Prune expired Jobs/Files

  Disabled = Dec 24-31 # disabeld during the last week of the year
}

# the same for jobs
Job {
  Name = xxx
  Disabled = Dec 24-31
}
