Hello.

I just ran into the same problem. One client does its 20 GB backup over 
internet and it takes a few days. Today I noticed Bacula had just completed 
the 2nd full backup and is now waiting for appendable volumes to do the 3rd 
one.

On the 9th of april, 21:47 the 1st full backup was completed, the 2nd job's 
log:
=====
07-Apr 23:05 backup-dir: No prior Full backup Job record found.
07-Apr 23:05 backup-dir: No prior or suitable Full backup found in catalog. 
Doing FULL backup.
09-Apr 21:47 backup-dir: Start Backup JobId 5770, 
Job=serv1-userdata.2007-04-07_23.05.16
09-Apr 21:47 backup-dir: Recycled volume "serv1-userdata-full-0002"
...
=====

I just cancelled the 3rd job, set "rerun failed levels = no" for that job and 
hope that tonight the incremental job is done.

It seems a bug to me also - job should have decided its level on 9th of april 
upon starting, not on the 7th upon queuing (when there was the 1st full 
backup still running).

Arno, how did you work around such a situation?
