For starters, I would set all your retention values to be the same value
(30 days). Issue a reload command within bconsole. Then run update
(pool, and volumes from pool) to update the Pool and Volumes from that
new Pool resource value.
Then run with that for a while and see how things go.
My theory as to the problem: your Full Job is being dropped from the
Catalog. Bacula goes to run an incremental, can't find a Full, so it
promotes that Job to a Full.
