Yes, that is one of the reasons why I am not very enthusiastic about it because it will require yet another directive :-(

Kern, please clarify:

If a backup is 0bytes/0files, does anything actually get written to storage (tape or disk), or is it just a database entry?

Thanks

Hello Jim,

You can submit it as a feature request, but I am not really inclined to
implement it, because it is a very special case, and it is very easy for
anyone to look at the number of files backed up that is produced in the
job report.

Best regards,

If implemented at all it should be implemented as an option, because
there are many kinds of possible admin jobs (and even incremental
backups) for which it is *perfectly normal* to complete with 0 files/0
bytes backed up.
