Yes, I'm using this. It's working fine for automatically scheduled jobs.

You still have to be careful if you - for example - manually start an
incremental backup which gets propagated into a full one - then  none
of  these configuration settings will be consulted, and you must take
care to manually adjust pool, storage etc.

Best regards,

Now that I think about it, the Pool is not my problem, but rather the
storage.  The FULL-Pool was chosen, but it wrote it to the INCREMENTAL
Storage Device rather then then the FULL storage device.

Am I getting confused?  I do not believe your suggestions will resolve my
issue.

I think Wolfgang got confused :-)

I am running a manual FULL right now to get a FULL backup before the
Incremental schedule kicks off which I think will fix everything.  It
would be nice that this would work automatically when a new client is
added and the  first backup is run.

If I am not correct in my thinking, let me know.

I think you're right... a setting like FullStorage, DifferentialStorage and IncrementalStorage would be one good solution, but some time ago this was discussed and Kern said he didn't see the need for it. As nobody else implemented it, it's a feature still missing.

I hope that in the future the python interfce grows to allow all these settings.

By the way: I even think that, once you can set all these things via python events, the configuration of Bacula can be much simplified because you're not foreced to use the flat text configuration files. Instead it could be possible to to store almost all configuration (except for some job stubs) in a way accessible by python and set the jobs up from there. Having all the important settings in a database, for example, would allow things like dynamically determining backup levels, storage devices to use, file sets and so on. Very interesting IMO. Might be a project for someone :-)

Thanks.
