Hi Richard,
My current backup have loads of un necessary data...
That's why I'd like to reset my bacula.
Also to re-work the exclude list I've setup and that doesn't work, I need
to know what file was backup during the last job.
How I do that ?
I've tryed to browse the mysql database, but filename are in blob which is
not handy for browesing.
Thomas.
