Hello All, Ubuntu 18.04 Bacula 9.0.6-1build1
Bacula, for some reasons, fails to find a prior full backup job in its catalog, though a full backup job listed in the 'Job' table. Bacula-web shows that a full backup job successfully completed/terminated. Email notifications (job results) state the same. Example: JobID:41 Level:Full Status:Success 8/19/2019 JobID:43 Level:Incremental Status:Success 8/20/2019 JobID:44 Level:Full Status:Success 8/21/2019 Email notification/log (JobID 41): 19-Aug 16:23 ubuntu-hm-srv-1-dir JobId 41: Start Backup JobId 41, Job=ubuntu-hm-srv-1-Full-Backup.2019-08-19_16.23.00_02 19-Aug 16:23 ubuntu-hm-srv-1-dir JobId 41: Created new Volume="ub-hm-srv-1-Full-Bak-0015", Pool="ub-hm-srv-1-Full_Backups", MediaType="Disk-Stor-1" in catalog. 19-Aug 16:23 ubuntu-hm-srv-1-dir JobId 41: Using Device "FileChgr1-Dev1" to write. 19-Aug 16:23 ubuntu-hm-srv-1-sd JobId 41: Labeled new Volume "ub-hm-srv-1-Full-Bak-0015" on File device "FileChgr1-Dev1" (/mnt/backup/bacula/backup). 19-Aug 16:23 ubuntu-hm-srv-1-sd JobId 41: Wrote label to prelabeled Volume "ub-hm-srv-1-Full-Bak-0015" on File device "FileChgr1-Dev1" (/mnt/backup/bacula/backup) 19-Aug 16:23 ubuntu-hm-srv-1-dir JobId 41: Volume used once. Marking Volume "ub-hm-srv-1-Full-Bak-0015" as Used. Email notification (JobID 45): 21-Aug 01:30 ubuntu-hm-srv-1-dir JobId 45: **No prior Full backup Job record found.** 21-Aug 01:30 ubuntu-hm-srv-1-dir JobId 45: No prior or suitable Full backup found in catalog. Doing FULL backup. 21-Aug 01:30 ubuntu-hm-srv-1-dir JobId 45: Start Backup JobId 45, Job=ubuntu-hm-srv-1-Incremental-Backup.2019-08-21_01.30.00_05 21-Aug 01:30 ubuntu-hm-srv-1-dir JobId 45: There are no more Jobs associated with Volume "ub-hm-srv-1-Incr-Bak-0003". Marking it purged. 21-Aug 01:30 ubuntu-hm-srv-1-dir JobId 45: All records pruned from Volume "ub-hm-srv-1-Incr-Bak-0003"; marking it "Purged" 21-Aug 01:30 ubuntu-hm-srv-1-dir JobId 45: Recycled volume "ub-hm-srv-1-Incr-Bak-0003" 21-Aug 01:30 ubuntu-hm-srv-1-dir JobId 45: Using Device "FileChgr1-Dev1" to write. According to this Bacula document <https://www.bacula.org/9.0.x-manuals/en/problems/Bacula_Frequently_Asked_Que.html#SECTION002210000000000000000> "I want an Incremental but Bacula runs it as a Full backup. Why?", "...If Bacula does not find a successful full backup, it proceeds to do one. Perhaps you canceled the full backup, or it terminated in error. In such cases, the full backup will not be successful..." It wasn't a case with my backups. They were all terminated successfully. "...Full backup of the same Job..". What do they mean by the same Job? These jobs are all different (incremental, differential and full). If they mean the same FileSet, so yes, it wasn't changed and the same for all backup jobs in question. Why JobID 43 found a prior full job JobID 41, but JobID 44 didn't? I can post my configuration files if you wish. Any idea?
