my company is using bacula for quite a while and we find it is a

No I created /tmp/bacula-test/dir2 after job 234.
And if so, did Bacula back them up?

I've found also another error in one of the forked pid of bacula-dir

I'm sorry but I don't think that could be a CPU/HW Problem:
The bacula-dir works greatly and every 14 days (the file, job and volume

Hello,
I'm quite new to Bacula but I'd like to use it to backup several office
computers in an organized way. The only thing I'm not sure about is
whether Bacula is able to backup huge files (say 2GiB) that change quite
often (several times a day) but only a small fraction of them change
but I believe the incremental and differential backup mode
is related only to whole files, not to their content - is there such
feature or is there some other way to handle such scenario?
Yes, Incremental and Differential mode both work on whole files not
their diffs. At this time there is no
What is very strange is that if I run the backups from the console, that is
through the run option, the backups are labeled, while the same jobs using
the scheduler does not get the label. For instance today I ran the uff_a job
manually, then I waited for the scheduled one. The device was

I'm not sure this is possible without some kind of admin job that you
would run before the backups to see what tape is still in the drive.
Then your admin job would do the house keeping necessary to reuse the tape.
Another Vertias feature I like that bacula does not have is the append
period.

It is possible (as other have reported) but be warned. It is *not* a

How is that different from VolumeUseDuration (are you saying only that
you wish the clock started counting from the end of the backup? if so,
that is sort of easily kludged around by adding the backup time to this

Many thanks. ctime is getting updated. There is an Application specific
backup for SVN on the website (indirectly), which does a chmod -R after it
is done. It kind of defeats the whole purpose of the script. Anyway,
removing it should solve the problem.

Forget what I just said. I always get the overwrite period, and the
append period mixed up. I am talking about the overwrite period.
VolumeUseDuration starts the time window from the first write to the
