I'm quite sure bacula will never decide to update a inc. backup to a full one because of the amount of data that has changed. The FileSet Id's of the two jobs are different. If the FileSet did change since te last backup, the inc. will be promoted to a full one. > *llist jobid=385 > JobId: 385 [...] > PriorJobId: 0 > FileSetId: 7 > FileSet: avocado-files > > *llist jobid=534 > JobId: 534 [...] > PriorJobId: 0 > FileSetId: 8 > FileSet: avocado-files Ralf ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
