Hi, Now that I have used Bacula a full cycle (60 days) I have a question: If backups are done Full (which expires after 60 days). Then Diff each week and Incre each day where there is no Diff Then restoring from any given date going back 60 days is not a problem UNTIL the initial Full is replaced

I'm fairly certain that when you do a "status dir", no matter how many days you specify, you'll only see the soonest occuring job of a certain level. So, if you have a Full, Differential and an Incremental, of a certain job defined then only the next of each of those will be shown. If you change

I learned that things like this were a problem when I started using bacula, as there is no easy way to schedule it. As it was, with Data Protector, I had been doing it by hand anyway. Doing the 1st and 3rd Tuesday is how I ultimately handled the situation. We don't have off hours staff anyway,
