Thank you Martin, The following configuration works for me now:
JobDefs { Name = "server-Backup_File_Job" Type = Backup Client = server-1-fd FileSet = "Full Set" Schedule = "WeeklyCycle" Storage = FileStorage Messages = Standard Pool = Default Full Backup Pool = server-Full_Backups Differential Backup Pool = server-Diff_Backups Incremental Backup Pool = server-Incr_Backups SpoolAttributes = yes Priority = 10 Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/%c.bsr" } Job { Name = "server-1-Backup" Client = server-1-fd JobDefs = "server-Backup_File_Job" } Schedule { Name = "WeeklyCycle" Run = Level=Full 1st sun at 01:30 Run = Level=Differential 2nd-5th sun at 01:30 Run = Level=Incremental mon-sat at 01:30 } <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> Virus-free. www.avg.com <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2> On Fri, Aug 23, 2019 at 1:19 PM Martin Simmons <mar...@lispworks.com> wrote: > "The same Job" means that you need a single Job definition (e.g. call it > ubuntu-hm-srv-1-Backup).
