Sorry, but you can't. Exchange is fairly picky about backups and will get upset if it suspects things aren't quite right. Exchange differential and incremental backups are done by backing up transaction log files only and not the database. For this to work, Exchange has to be sure that the last full backup that you did + all the log files you have backed up will actually give you a working database, and in your case it won't so Exchange won't let you (not much point forcing it if it won't work right?). The Exchange literature clearly states that once you do any sort of restore, repair, hotfix, or service pack that you should do a full backup asap. If it's any comfort (and it probably isn't :), Bacula isn't the only backup tool that has given me grief with Exchange - I've recently spent lots of time trying to persuade Backup Exec to play nicely. What it was doing in the above situation is hang the entire Exchange database until a bunch of services are restarted. Not sure if that problem is fixed either. At some point I might look at having the plugin automatically upgrade the backup level to Full if it gets such an error, but it could be a bit tricky. It also probably shouldn't be the default action else it might upset other users...
