Don't setup two seperate jobs to do this.  Simply change which pool is used for differential (or incremental) backups in the Schedule section of the director configuration.

Example:

Schedule {
  Name = "NightlySave"
  Run = Level=Full Pool=Fulls mon at 01:05
  Run = Level=Differential Pool=Diffs tue-sun at 01:05
}

You must setup multiple pools, and add volumes to those pools first of course.

You should check out the manual on www.bacula.org...there's lots of other tips in there like this.

Hello bacula users.

I've been recently testing bacula and found a strange thing. Bacula
doesn't seems to recognise the full backup. I've done the full backup
yesterday (first time since the install). Today, it should perform an
incremental backup, but it started doing the full one again.

Here is the output from the console.

Does anyone know why this might happen? Can this be due to my Job setup?
I've created two separate jobs for each host, one for full backup and
one for incremental. This was done in order to split the full and
incremental jobs between two different drives and volumes on my 2-Drive
loader?

Many thanks for the help.
