Hi All (Hi Martin) I cannot have one Job (configured) pointing to more then one Storage (can I?) and I therefore have two separate Jobs listed.
E.g. Job A Name = "FullJob" Level = "Full" Storage = "USB2" Schedule = "MonSch" Job B Name = "DiffJob" Level = "Differential" Storage = "SonyAIT" Schedule = "TueFri" Bacula is complaining that I have a different job name (which I do). Therefore it will run Job B as a Full backup instead of its original Differential. Can I get Bacula to not upgrade Job-B (on Tuesday) to a Full Backup? -- Regards Alan -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Martin Simmons Sent: 03 November 2006 12:09 To: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Bacula-users] Backup Method with Multiple Media Types - Resend >>>>> On Fri, 3 Nov 2006 09:46:48 +0000, Alan To said: > > 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.

No, I don't think so. The job report should say why it is upgrading to Full, so you need to fix the reason behind that decision. The most likely reason is that one of the retention times is too short, so the job record is removed from the database. __Martin > > -- Regards > Alan > > -----Original Message----- > From: Martin Simmons [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 02 November 2006 18:26 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Cc: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: Re: [Bacula-users] Backup Method with Multiple Media Types - > Resend > >>>>> On Thu, 2 Nov 2006 16:38:19 +0000, Alan To said: > > > > Hi There > > > > I am using the version of Bacula (1.36.1) that comes with ClarkCo= > > nnect 3.2 r1.
