Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula-users Digest, Vol 78, Issue 9

Hi,

I'm curious about the behaviour of bacula. Recently I was backing up a 
directory and meanwhile I added more directories to it. to my surprise, 
Bacula backed up everything, not just the files that where in the 
directory. I'm used to other backup and synchronization software that 
create a file list before starting to actually do the backup. This means 
that if new files or directory are added to the target, they are not 
taken into account and if anything is deleted before being backed up, it 
either warns or quit with error. This protects against the possibility 
of believe that something was backed up but actually, was not.

Can someone confirm this and maybe help me get a work around to this?
Regards,

Juan Pablo Lorier

You may be able to emulate your desired behavior by generating a
client file list before the backup and have bacula use that as your
fileset however that may cause you problems with backup levels since
the fileset will change each time.

That is the standard behaviour with Bacula. If the fileset is amended at all, 
a full backup will be done unless you include the clause

 Ignore FileSet Changes = yes

in the fileset definition

Hi Garry,

Thanks for your answer, I'll take a look at that option to see if it 
fits my needs.

Hi John,

I don't think I can use it that way if it interferes with the proper 
operation.
