Hi, All

After implementing AlwaysInc schema, I've payed attention that my incremental 
backup are quite large. Probably it was also true for classic Full-Diff-Inc 
schema or not, I am not sure. Inspecting files included in Incremental backup, 
I can see same static unchanged files backed up every day. I thought about MD5 
hash collision, then I've replaced the signature to be SHA256. After Full 
backup, a next Incremental brings me almost same list of backed up files. The 
noatime directive also not helped.

What is strategy of selecting files to be backed up ?
If "accurate=pins5" in fileset is works in AlwaysInc mode , or its own 
"accurate=yes" in jobdef breaks selection ? 

Also, I saw still open bug https://bugs.bareos.org/view.php?id=907 related to 
Windows. I see the same problem on linux.

Bareos Version is 17.2.4
My Fileset is:
FileSet {
  Name = "HANA-001"
  Description = "Backup local ext2,3,4 and xfs FS"
  Include {
    Options {
      signature=SHA256
      onefs=Yes
      compression=GZIP
      accurate=pins5
      sparse=yes
      noatime=yes
#      keepatime=yes
    }
    File = "\\|sh -c \"mount | egrep 'ext[2-4]|xfs' | awk '{print \$3}' \""
    Exclude Dir Containing = .nobareos
  }
  Exclude {
    File = /var/lib/bareos
    File = /var/lib/bareos/storage
    File = /proc
    File = /sys
    File = /tmp
    File = /var/tmp
    File = /dev
    File = /.journal
    File = /.fsck
  }
}

My jobdef is
JobDefs {
  Accurate = yes
  Always Incremental = yes
  Always Incremental Job Retention = 30 days
  Always Incremental Keep Number = 6
#  Always Incremental Max Full Age = 31 days
  Client = bareos-fd
  FileSet = "SelfTest"                     # selftest fileset
  Full Backup Pool = Full
  Incremental Backup Pool = Incremental
  Level = Incremental
  Messages = Standard
  Name = "AlwaysInc"
  Next Pool= "Full"
  Pool = "Incremental"
  Priority = 10
  Schedule = "AlwaysInc"
  Storage = File
  Type = Backup
}
