Hi and welcome!

 

Most of the time, the limiting factor for an incremental backup is the analysis 
of all files by the file daemon on the client. 

So, only some small changes/files need to be backed-up, but bacula can only 
know this by analyse one file after another.

So it can well be that an incremental backup can need as much time as a full 
backup, presumed, the transfer rate for your backup device and/or to your 
server is not the limiting factor.

 

However, which the information you provided, it is difficult to give you a 
black&white “Yes or No”-answer.

 

Best,

 

Christian

Betreff: [Bacula-users] question about bacula job speed

 

Hi everyone,

Is that normal that incremental bacula job ( just to backup  a few megabytes) 
takes 9 or 10 hours? assuming there is no performance or any issue on the 
servers and clients, only encryption algorithm has changed recently!

 

 

Thanks,
