Re: [Bacula-users] Incremental Backup / Moved File doesn't get stored in the backup

You could try using accurate mode, which should fix this. http://www.bacula.org/5.0.x-manuals/en/main/main/New_Features_in_3_0_0.html#SECTION0081 __Martin Thank you for this hint, it resolved this issue. Like the manual stated, the backup process consumes much more memory. For my files (1368334) the bacula-fd allocated 200MB of memory. One thing that i found interesting: the moved files respectively the old locations are listed in the bacula job file list. Restoring corresponding locations shows correct behavior (moved file vanished). I wonder how bacula distinguishes between moved/deleted files. Is it because the file entry in the database has the MD5 field set to 0? Best PM -- Increase Visibility of Your 3D Game App Earn a Chance To Win $500!

Restoring corresponding locations shows correct behavior (moved file vanished). Yes, it records the moved/deleted files using a special marker. I wonder how bacula distinguishes between moved/deleted files. Is it because the file entry in the database has the MD5 field set to 0? I think it is when FileIndex is set to 0. __Martin -- Increase Visibility of Your 3D Game App Earn a Chance To Win $500!
