To upgrade, or to use a proper previous succesfull backup as a reference?
I also used to think they would upgrade to full, but recently I noticed (first time a job failed, due to cancellation after tape got full) a differential job used old full backup -at first I thought this was logical, but then it looked to me that it had been using some very old (it looked for me older than the file retention period?) job as a reference. I was busy enough for other reasons, so I manually ran a full one and forgot that matter. So, I wouldn't find it completely impossible that there could be a problem with upgrades after fail. Unfortunately, I had no resources to investigate the matter at that time. I was (and still am) running 1.38.3. -- TiN ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!
