What is important here: I changed *nothing* in bacula, I only changed *many* 
files on the client. That was all. And during the nightly scheduled incremental 
backup bacula started a full backup. A modification in the bacula config took 
not place. All I can assume is bacula calculated the amount of files / size 
from the affected files and came to the conclusion that the incremental backup 
to do would be nearly like a full backup, so it changed the job by its own to 
make a full backup to have the next incremental backups much more smaller. That 
sounds reasonable, but I don't want that kind of consideration ;)

Ok, here the Output:

(I cancled 534 before the Full Backup really started.)
