Juan, try upgrading to 5.2.6 and use these settings: ====================================================== FileSet { Name = "Root-set" Include { Options { signature = MD5 compression = GZIP Sparse = yes aclsupport = yes xattrsupport = yes } File = / } }
Job { Name = "client-base-fd-data" JobDefs = "jobbaculadefs" Client = stor-server3-fd FileSet = "Root-set" Storage = File Pool = File Level = Base } Job { Name = "client-fd-data" JobDefs = "jobbaculadefs" Client = stor-server3-fd FileSet = "Root-set" Base = client-base-fd-data Storage = File Pool = File Accurate = yes } ======================================================= You may need to insert some extra settings in the jobs above. # Reload bacula and run the base job: run job=client-base-fd-data # Let it finish and run the FULL run job=client-fd-data level=FULL # Let it finish, check to make sure that this FULL used the Base job in the report. # Now run a differential: run job=client-fd-data level=Differential # The report should come back with almost no changes, the differential is really a incremental from the last full. Let me know.

Could you please send me the complete configuration for search the differences between the two of them. We work with Bacula 5.0.2 and linux debian 2.6.32-5-amd64. Also I tried deduplication with the same machine I did first base after full and lately differential and the differential was smaller. But when I use that base with another machine the differential is bigger than full backup and that doesn't make sense. I CC the group in case there's someone who had the same trouble.

Can you remove these lines in your fileset and give it a try? BaseJob = pmugcs5 Accurate = mcs Verify = pin5 This is our fileset: FileSet { Name = "Root-set" Include { Options { signature = MD5 compression = LZO Sparse = yes aclsupport = yes xattrsupport = yes } File = / } } Good luck Pablo ----- Original Message ----- From: "Juan Diaz" <juan.d...@insa-lyon.fr> To: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net Cc: "José Frederico" <jose.freder...@callide.fr> Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2012 9:35:27 AM Subject: [Bacula-users] Question Hello, Right now we're evaluating and deciding which is going to be our Backup software, Bacula is the most optioned so far but we're having troubles with the implementation of the file DE duplication. When we make a base job of the machine virtual that is going to be the base, his size is 553 Mb. After that when we make a full backup of a machine that was created from the machine "base". His size is 242 Mb that’s ok because it only has to make backup of the files that are different of files of the base. The problem comes when we make a differential backup right after the full backup. The result must be 0 Mb or something really small, but we're getting backups of 462 Mb. We used one configuration similar to the one we found in the Bacula’s manual. http://www.bacula.org/5.2.x-manuals/en/main/main.pdf Chapter 34. We have tried removing BaseJob, Accurate and Verify from FileSet but it didn’t worked. We have always the same sizes that don't make sense. We would like to know if you have a solution for our problem, because it worked when we don't use DE duplication (just with full and Differential), but we are very interested in using it, that would save us a lot of space on ours hard drives. We attached here the job’s configuration: ob { Name = "BackupBasse" Type = Backup Level = Base Client = basse-fd FileSet = "TOUT" Schedule = "programme2" Storage = File Messages = Standard Pool = File Priority = 10 Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/%c.bsr" } Schedule{ Name = "programme2" Run = at 14:30 } Job { Name = "Backupftp" Type = Backup Base = Backupftp, BackupBasse Accurate=yes Client = basseftp-fd FileSet = "TOUT" Schedule = "programme" Storage = File Messages = Standard Pool = File Priority = 10 Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/%c.bsr" } Schedule{ Name = "programme" Run = Level=Full at 14:31 Run = Level=Incremental at 14:32 } FileSet { Name = "TOUT" Include { Options { BaseJob = pmugcs5 Accurate = mcs Verify = pin5 } File = / } } Thank you very much for your help, Juan David DIAZ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF email is sponsosred by: Try Windows Azure free for 90 days Click Here http://p.sf.net/sfu/sfd2d-msazure _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF email is sponsosred by: Try Windows Azure free for 90 days Click Here http://p.sf.net/sfu/sfd2d-msazure _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
