Hi Michael, in this case you might want to consider setting up separate pools & storages for full and incremental backups, so you have an easy way later on to archive a full backup once a month by copying over a full volume to another usb disk and store it offsite or whatever. You can configure bacula to use one volume per job by using the Maximum Volume Jobs = 1 directive (you'd need to get rid of the MaxVolBytes definition then though as it wouldn't make sense anymore) We define a full pool with 3 max volumes and an incremental pool with 8 volumes for a "regular" client in our setup.
