Hmm, I wonder - How would > you get a job to run run after another job, rather than have bacula > decide via priorities? To be fair - if it's grabbing actual files directly from the client, it's no longer a "virtual" backup. I got the impression that the point was to generate a "full" backup without having to talk to the client at all.
I think if you give the virtual full a lower priority than the incremental, you can schedule both for the same day and have it always do the incremental then the virtual full in the correct order (haven't actually TRIED to do this myself, so I'm guessing). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn how Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) One Node allows customers to consolidate database storage, standardize their database environment, and, should the need arise, upgrade to a full multi-node Oracle RAC database without downtime or disruption http://p.sf.net/sfu/oracle-sfdevnl _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
