No, you didn't do a first run. You simply generated "/mnt/rescue1.log".
Option '-g' (which has been renamed to '-G' in ddrescue 1.18) is not
meant to be used in normal rescue mode (see below).
And later I run this command again ( with new log file ) on same disks (
/dev/sdb is getting bad sectors ) - I know it's my mistake and I should stay
with 1st run:
ddrescue -f -g -n /dev/sdb /dev/sda /mnt/rescue2.log // new log file used
Once again, you simply generated "/mnt/rescue2.log".

"NOTE: When ddrescue is invoked with the '--generate-mode' option it
operates in "generate mode", which is different from the default "rescue
mode". That is, if you use the '--generate-mode' option, ddrescue does
not rescue anything. It only tries to generate a logfile for later use."
