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.) *llist jobid=385 JobId: 385 Job: client-avocado-files.2007-02-04_01.05.00 Name: client-avocado-files PurgedFiles: 0 Type: B Level: F ClientId: 5 Name: avocado-fd JobStatus: T SchedTime: 2007-02-04 01:05:00 StartTime: 2007-02-04 01:05:11 EndTime: 2007-02-04 04:25:49 RealEndTime: 2007-02-04 04:25:49 JobTDate: 1,170,559,549 VolSessionId: 37 VolSessionTime: 1,170,003,206 JobFiles: 12,895 JobErrors: 0 JobMissingFiles: 0 PoolId: 1 PooLname: Full-Pool PriorJobId: 0 FileSetId: 7 FileSet: avocado-files *llist jobid=534 JobId: 534 Job: client-avocado-files.2007-02-27_19.25.31 Name: client-avocado-files PurgedFiles: 0 Type: B Level: F ClientId: 5 Name: avocado-fd JobStatus: A SchedTime: 2007-02-27 19:25:27 StartTime: 2007-02-27 19:25:53 EndTime: 2007-02-27 19:25:58 RealEndTime: 2007-02-27 19:25:58 JobTDate: 1,172,600,758 VolSessionId: 5 VolSessionTime: 1,172,507,626 JobFiles: 0 JobErrors: 0 JobMissingFiles: 0 PoolId: 1 PooLname: Full-Pool PriorJobId: 0 FileSetId: 8 FileSet: avocado-files * And here the definitions: Job { Name = client-avocado-files Type = Backup JobDefs = defaults Client = avocado-fd FileSet = avocado-files Write Bootstrap = "/var/db/bacula/client-avocado-files.bsr" Schedule = "WeeklyCycle" } Client { Name = avocado-fd Address = gurke FDPort = 19102 Catalog = MyCatalog Password = "" # password for FileDaemon File Retention = 30 days # 30 days Job Retention = 6 months # six months AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired Jobs/Files Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20 } FileSet { Name = avocado-files Include { Options { signature = MD5 compression = GZIP } File = ........ } } Schedule { Name = "WeeklyCycle" Run = Full 1st sun at 1:05 Run = Differential 2nd-5th sun at 1:05 Run = Incremental mon-sat at 1:05 } Pool { Name = Full-Pool Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes # automatically recycle Volumes AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes Volume Retention = 40 days Maximum Volume Jobs = 5 Label Format = Full- Maximum Volumes = 2 } Pool { Name = Inc-Pool Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes # automatically recycle Volumes AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes Volume Retention = 6 days Maximum Volume Jobs = 5 Label Format = Inc- Maximum Volumes = 6 } -- Oliver Lehmann http://www.pofo.de/ http://wishlist.ans-netz.de/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
