OK; i've tried to set 'Accurate = yes', but set the accurate check flags on the fileset seems a bit more complex... manual: https://www.bacula.org/9.6.x-manuals/en/main/Configuring_Director.html#SECTION002170000000000000000 say: accurate=options The options letters specified are used when running a Backup Level=Incremental/Differential in Accurate mode. The options letters are the same as in the verify= directive below. [...] i compare the inodes p compare the permission bits n compare the number of links u compare the user id g compare the group id s compare the size a compare the access time m compare the modification time (st_mtime) c compare the change time (st_ctime) d report file size decreases 5 compare the MD5 signature 1 compare the SHA1 signature A Only for Accurate option, it allows to always backup the file p, u, g, s, a, m, c, d, A seems totally clear to me. Suppose that setting 5 or 1 options depend on setting options; eg, it is totally unuseful to have: Options { Signature = MD5 accurate = <...>1 } so, calculating MD5 and checking SHA1. But options 'i' what mean? Compare THE inode number? Or the number of inodes of that particolar file? Also, 'n' mean soft or hard link? What is the interrelation between 'i' and 'n' options? Anyway, i'm currently trying: Options { Signature = MD5 accurate = pugsmcd5 } i'll provide feedback.
