Hi,

I have been using bacula for 5 years now and finally comes the first time I 
need to do a major restore from our tapes. I read the tutorial, tried the 
instructions and it seemingly worked as designed (I haven't run actual 
restore yet) but I am not sure which exactly files it was going to restore. I 
have two pools of tapes: one for full backups (run monthly) and another one 
for incremental (run every night). The 'restore all' command, when instructed 
to find JobIds of the most recent backup for a client, correctly located and 
listed all relevant full backups plus all incremental ones. It then proceeded 
creating directory tree and in the process went through both latest full 
backup and all incrementals since. So I assume this tree contains the latest 
snapshot? Or should I actually run two restores to get all the latest files: 
one for last full set and another one for all incrementals? I guess this is a 
stupid question but I'd really appreciate if someone could enlighten me since 
going through 50,000+ files manually to check the versions restored is really 
not an option.

Thanks,
Ivan
