Hello Everybody, Yes, I am coming. Thanks for calling me here :-) Baculum / Bacularis always use full as a base + incremental or differential backups. In the restore wizard close to the radio button with the "Selected backup" restore method there is green help icon where is described the way how

I don't see any options to specify level either in Baculum or bconsole restore? Level has no meaning in a restore context since we restore jobs that have a defined level. -Chris- On Fri, 27 Oct 2023, 22:08 Rob Gerber, wrote: > As far as I know you should only need one restore job. > > Have you
