I have Bacula backing up only /home on a Linux workstation running FC6.
This is the Fileset:
FileSet {
Name = "Home Set"
Include {
Options {
signature = MD5
compression = GZIP
Exclude = yes
WildFile = "/home/*/.mozilla/firefox/*/Cache/*"
WildFile = "/home/*/.mozilla/default/*/Cache/*"
WildFile = "/home/*/.mozilla/eclipse/Cache/*"
WildFile = "/home/*/.gnome2/epiphany/mozilla/epiphany/Cache/*"
WildDir = "/home/*/.beagle/TextCache"
WildDir = "/home/*/.evolution/cache"
WildDir = "/home/*/.java/deployment/cache"
}
File = /home
}
# Exclude {
# }
}
And this is the Schedule:
Schedule {
Name = "WeeklyCycle"
Run = Full 1st sun at 23:05
Run = Differential 2nd-5th sun at 23:05
Run = Incremental mon-sat at 23:05
}
Unfortunately, even though the Job says it is supposed to perform
Incrementals mon-sat and the messages say it is an incremental, it uses
nearly the same amount of space every time:
Job run manually:
...
Backup Level: Full (upgraded from Incremental)
...
FD Bytes Written: 32,908,099,036 (32.90 GB)
SD Bytes Written: 32,921,345,734 (32.92 GB)
...
Job run automatically later in day:
...
Backup Level: Incremental, since=2007-03-29 14:05:18
...
FD Bytes Written: 31,923,730,782 (31.92 GB)
SD Bytes Written: 31,930,104,420 (31.93 GB)
...
What gives? I know all 32 GB didn't change as they are mostly digital
pictures in the home directory? Is there something in gnome or FC6 that
changes the atime on every file?
