Hello Ben! I can't be sure for your case but the documentation states: -----BEGIN----- Take special care not to include a directory twice or Bacula will backup the same files two times wasting a lot of space on your archive device. Including a directory twice is very easy to do. For example: Include { File = / File = /usr Options { compression=GZIP } } on a Unix system where /usr is a subdirectory (rather than a mounted filesystem) will cause /usr to be backed up twice. -----END----- Could you check the relevant file set?
