I think you'll find it depends on what was backed up. Reading this page: http://www.bacula.org/5.0.x-manuals/en/main/main/Configuring_Director.html#SECTION001870000000000000000 "However, one additional point is that in the case that no match was found, Bacula will use the options found in the last Options resource. As a consequence, if you want a particular set of "default" options, you should put them in an Options resource after any other Options. " Thus, sometimes your backup matched a previous Options clause, and sometimes it did not. -- Dan Langille -- http://langille.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Protect Your Site and Customers from Malware Attacks Learn about various malware tactics and how to avoid them.
