Hi list, this is my first post on this ml. I'm studying bacula for server backup.
I'm running different tests on a vm and I've a question about restoring bacula backup. I want backup /home/test. In this directory I've created 3 files with some data. This directory has 3 files (file1, file2, file3) I perform a full backup , then a apply a change in file1 and perform a incremental backup, then I remove file2 and perform another incremental backup. Then full backup has: /home/test/{file1,file2,file3} 1st incr backup has: /home/test/file1 2nd incr backup has: /home/test Successfully, I try to restore this 3 jobs. After restore in /restore-path I get the following status: after restoring full backup: /home/test/{file1,file2,file3} after restoring 1st incr: /home/test/{file1,file2,file3} after restoring 2nd incr: /home/test/{file1,file2,file3} For me this is not the expected result because file2 was deleted before 2nd incr job. Restoring 2nd incr backup the file is not removed. Seems that bacula can't handle directory change like "in the last backup file2 was present, now the file does not exist due to rm and in the next backup job must save that this file was removed between this 2 jobs so when a restore will be applied for this jobs, the 2nd restore job must remove the deleted file." My expected result is: /home/test/{file1,file3} There is a way that the 2nd incr restore, remove file2 between 2 jobs? Thanks in advance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
