In the message dated: Mon, 25 Mar 2013 11:57:28 +0100, The pithy ruminations from Denny Schierz on <[Bacula-users] Question: Keep last backups, if next backups aren't successful> were: => hi, => => I have just one question: => => One backup client is now offline so Bacula can't connect to the => fd-client. Does Bacula keeps the last successful backups, until the => client comes back? Or does the purge command delete them, so that I => don't have any complete backup anymore in a few weeks?
The purge command will delete the backups. I submitted a feature request to improve that in 2009 [1]. I expect that having bacula purge the only backup for a client is a frequent, important, but usually overlooked event, and would be worth protecting against.
