If so, it uses the date that full backup started as the time for comparing if files have changed. If Bacula does not find a successful full backup, it proceeds to do one. Perhaps you canceled the full backup, or it terminated in error. In such cases, the full backup will not be successful. You can check by entering list jobs and look to see if there is a prior Job with the same Name that has Level F and JobStatus T (normal termination)." The major point is "a prior Job with the same Name".... ... > you use scheduling to > schedule when fulls, incrementals and differentials occur." yep, that was my mistake - i used multiple job definitions.... heh, if all aswers would come so easy :-) Thanks!
