I am setting up Bacula for the first time. I am attempting to test it
by backing up a test folder on an XP machine.
Here are the messages I get when I try to run my job:
12-May 08:45 DoraleeII-dir JobId 26: No prior Full backup Job record found.
12-May 08:45 DoraleeII-dir JobId 26: No prior or sui
The file I have setup to backup is: C:\jaketestfolder It isn't a
network share or anything, just a folder I created with a couple .mpeg
in there so give it something to backup.

Thanks, I haven't tried that yet! I'll change it, and give it another
try. I'll let you know if that fixes it.

Ok edited the conf directly and reloaded through bconsole.
Any other Ideas?
Same error:

No I haven't. Do I need to add the to the Job block in the dir conf?
or is there a setting I'm overlooking?

I am in charge of setting up the backups of a small office of around
10 people. About 6 are on on the same LAN as the server so bandwidth
is not a problem. However, the rest are road warriors and their
backups may take quite a bit more time... I am looking at asking them
to leave their laptops on a
My goal is to have a backup job per employee. Each employee will have
their own Pool and volume.
My problem is that while testing the backups work fine, except the
volume just keeps growing and growing.
I have set the max volume size to 12G. The current file size is now
16G. I have also set the ma

Do you have a very specific reason for this? You realize that's a full year
goes by before you back up. And then you run two backups within a two day
period. A full backup on the first right after the 31st of December is almost
wasteful I would imagine. You may could get by with a little differe

Check the compression of gzip make sure your getting the files compressed. May
slow down the backup process but if it's space you are worried about it will
help tremendously. And also, Bacula will always stay at full capacity no matter
if the job is pruned. Unless you MANUALLY delete the volume
I have a machine I back up that when done averages:

Yes, I use disk based file storage. It is a full backup but, I will turn
gzip off and defrag it to see if I can improve the speed. Thanks for the
advice and any additional advice is welcomed.
