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, 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.

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.
