I think that your setup is a bit strange. You are requesting to keep only 1
full backup around, but then also incrementals. I'd think that for
incrementals to work you'd need 2 fulls, at least as long as incrementals
made before the latest full are around. I'd think BackupPC would override
your settings and keep the two full while needed, but then why doesn't it?

[BackupPC-users] Problems with backup scheduling

Hello.
I expected an unexplained files wipeout yesterday on my server at around
0:40. When searching my available backups, I had the unhappy surprise of
discovering my backup policy was absolutly not working: I just had a
full backup from 4 month ago, and an incremental backup from yesterday.
As this last one was currently updated since 00, I immediatly stopped
the update so as to keep it unchanged, but it was removed anyway by a
partial update, full of empty files :/
What I don't understand here is why I don't have one full backup from
one week maximum, and up to six additional daily incremental backups, as
configured with default values:
$Conf{FullPeriod} = 6.97;
$Conf{FullKeepCnt} = 1;
$Conf{FullKeepCntMin} = 1;
$Conf{FullAgeMax} = 90;
$Conf{IncrPeriod} = 0.97;
$Conf{IncrKeepCnt} = 6;
$Conf{IncrKeepCntMin} = 1;
$Conf{IncrAgeMax} = 30;
There is no available space problem:
/dev/mapper/vg0-lv0 35189500 21006244 13110760 62% /var/lib/backuppc
All I found in error logs were some troubles running a mysql dump script
on the client due to lack of permissions, but it shouldn't interfere
with other files backup.
I'm using backuppc 2.1.1 on debian sarge.
