Hi All (Hi Martin)

I already have the override (in my case, repeated for wed, thu, fri)
Run = Level=Differential Storage=SonyAIT tue at 22:30

But Bacula still wants to upgrade my backup to a Full Backup.  With so much 
data (>150gb) this will fill two-or-more AIT2 tapes.  Hence I would like a USB2 
Backup (Full) on Mondays, and AIT2 tape Backup (Differential) for the rest of 
the week.

Is there any way I can override Bacula's Director auto-upgrade from 
Differential to Full Backup, such that I can perform any Differential Backup 
(with different job and different storage) using the same Client and FileSet 
linked to its last successful Full Backup?

-- Regards
Alan

Yes, you can override the storage in the schedule, something like

Run = Level=Full Storage=SonyAIT 1st sun at 01:05

Beware though that jobs started using the console's run command will still use 
the file storage unless you override this in the console.
