Hi, We had a power cut over the weekend. As look would have it, this happened to be a weekend of full backup jobs and, as a result of the power loss, quite a lot of the backup jobs failed.
I thought had read in the past that somebody was annoyed that Bacula then insisted on running a full backup again because of a failure. I thought this was rather handy as it would negate the need to manually start up all the failed jobs. However, when the jobs ran last night only incrementals ran. Do I need to configure something to manually re-run failed full jobs, or did I misinterpret what I remember reading? Here is the client config of one of the failed machines # Client (File Services) to backup Client { Name = foobar-fd Address = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx FDPort = 9102 Catalog = SouthHunsley Password = "???!!!" # password for FileDaemon File Retention = 30 days # 30 days Job Retention = 6 months # six months AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired Jobs/Files } #===== # copied from main config file JobDefs { Name = "DefaultJob" Type = Backup Accurate = yes Level = Incremental Pool = Default Messages = Standard Write Bootstrap = "/var/bacula/%c.bsr" Allow Duplicate Jobs = no Cancel Queued Duplicates = yes } #===== Job { Name = foobar-job Client = foobar-fd JobDefs = "DefaultJob" Schedule = "WeeklyCycle-0" FileSet = foobar_full-set Storage = foobar-storage Full Backup Pool = foobar_full-pool Differential Backup Pool = foobar_diff-pool Incremental Backup Pool = foobar_incr-pool Priority = 10 Run Before Job = "/etc/bacula/deploy/update-client.sh %c" Client Run Before Job = "\%SYSTEMROOT\%/System32/cscript.exe C:\\Bacula\\Utils\\runbefore.wsf JobLevel=%l" } FileSet { Name = foobar_full-set Include { Options { signature = MD5 compression = GZIP Exclude = yes IgnoreCase = yes @/etc/bacula/objects/aa-windows_exclude.list WildDir = "C:/Program Files/Microsoft SQL Server" } File = C:/ } } Storage { Name = foobar-storage # Do not use "localhost" here Address = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx # N.B.
