I *think* Bacula uses timestamps when doing incrementals. if you delete one incremental, you lose the files modified/created for that day. But if you delete the full, Bacula "upgrades" the next incremental to Full, as it finds no suitable Full to do the incremental for. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Beautiful is writing same markup.
