Timing out mount requests

[Florian Panzer - PLUSTECH]

Dear bareos-users,

I have this one customer that occasionally does not insert a tape, and
my backup jobs are waiting, yielding

> intervention needed / Please mount append Volume "foo" or label a new
one for: job: bar...


I want jobs to *never* take longer than 8 hours, so i set

> Dir->Absolute Job Timeout = 28800

but it does not cancel backups stuck in state "waiting for mount
request". My assumption it that it only counts actual "productive"
runtime of a job (?)

Is there a way to have my jobs just fail after a set amount of time if
no media is found / mounted?
