Hi MK, Thanks for the response! > File records, together with a table specifying which files are in which > job, tell you which jobs you need to restore particular file if you want > to do a selective restore.
Ah, I think I get it. Entire jobs can be (easily) restored if the File Record is gone but the Job Record is present, but selecting individual files before restore isn't (easily) possible Weirdly this is clearly stated in bareos-21 documentation: "once the File records are removed from the database, you will no longer be able to restore individual files from the Job. However, as long as the Job record remains in the database, you will be able to restore all the files backed up for the Job. " https://docs.bareos.org/bareos-21/TasksAndConcepts/CatalogMaintenance.html#setting-retention-periods But that whole section is gone for bareos-22! :( Thanks again!
