Good morning -
I've not yet started using Bacula, but I'm getting ready to. I'm very
impressed with how it works, and the documentation is clear and concise
- even without having used bacula yet, I'm very impressed.
One thing that I did not see in the documentation was how I could retain
a set of incremental backups, with a full backup.
What I'd like to do is do one full backup nightly, and then incremental
backups every four hours, until the next nightly backup. I'd like to
retain these incremental backups for as long as I retain their
corresponding full backup. I'd like to have at least ten days' worth of
these "sets". I did not see this type of setup in the documentation.
If anyone would care to explain this to me, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!

Hi -
It's been a while since I've asked this, and I had a few more questions.
Is this kind of backup common? I'll agree that this is not the most
efficient way to backup anything, especially considering that this is
being done to save all chagnes to all files which may have been modified
throughout the course of N hours. However, as some of you may
understand, that's not really my choice ;)
Thanks!
