Abdullah: Make sure you have this in your fileset definition
Sparse = yes Also you can do this in bconsole: estimate job=client_job_whatever listing it will print the list of files to be backed up. Look for big files in the list.

I been trying to tackle this for the past two weeks or so to no avail... My director runs on Redhat Rhel 5.5 running bacula 5.0.2. My clients are Redhat Rhel 5.5 running bacula 5.0.2. Each of the bacula clients are less than 15 GB of data. Backups of each client were fine. But two weeks ago the backups for each of these clients ballooned to 550GB each!! When I do a df -h... the servers only show 15GB of space used. The one difference I noticed in the past two weeks is...I added these servers to our new IPA domain. Which in essence is an ldap server using kerberos authentication for identity management. This server runs on Rhel 6.2. I have many other clients which are not part of the IPA domain that are backing up just fine. So I'm sure it has something to do with this. I have even tried to remove my bacula clients out of the IPA domain, than ran a backup. But it still reports at 550GB of data being backed up. I appreciate the help... -- -Abdullah ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Better than sec?
