Generally, Bareos uses a file based approach. So it copies all files with changes as full files. So this is the behavior you describe. The Bareos vmware plugin uses a block based approach, so if your system is running on VMware, you can switch to it. -- Jörg Steffens [email protected] Bareos GmbH & Co.
