Yes, I think so, for daily full backups.
I'm just curious how did you check that Dimitri is making a daily full
backups?
I have 5 years retentions for my full backups, but they are full
monthly backups. For daily and weekly backups, we use incremental
and differential types.
Well. Let's imagine I backup a single file every day. Every day this
file is changing its contents, so what backup level I should use for
it (I assume I do not use bacula delta plugin)? You could ask what
single file, I can respond a virtual machine disk image. :)
That is one reason I switched to installing Bacula client on the VM,
rather than backing up the entire VM image on a daily basis. Another
reason is that restoring a file to the VM is much quicker and easier
with the Bacula client installed on the VM. For my purposes, VM image
backups are only useful for archival / off-site backups. Even with the
delta plugin, restoring a single file to the VM is still painful.
