Are you running an antivirus scan? I ran into a problem a few years ago where a certain antivirus product was modifying the dates on files..

Here's the full log for the incremental: 29-Mar 23:05 backup-dir: Start Backup JobId 4, Job=gandalf.2007-03-29_23.05.00 29-Mar 23:05 backup-sd: Volume "Vol-0002" previously written, moving to end of data. 29-Mar 23:25 backup-sd: User defined maximum volume capacity 21,474,836,480 exceeded on device "File" (/tmp). 29-Mar 23:25 backup-sd: End of medium on Volume "Vol-0002" Bytes=21,474,832,835 Blocks=332,882 at 29-Mar-2007 23:25. 29-Mar 23:25 backup-dir: Created new Volume "Vol-0003" in catalog. 29-Mar 23:25 backup-sd: Labeled new Volume "Vol-0003" on device "File" (/tmp). 29-Mar 23:25 backup-sd: Wrote label to prelabeled Volume "Vol-0003" on device "File" (/tmp) 29-Mar 23:25 backup-sd: New volume "Vol-0003" mounted on device "File" (/tmp) at 29-Mar-2007 23:25. 30-Mar 00:08 backup-sd: User defined maximum volume capacity 21,474,836,480 exceeded on device "File" (/tmp). 30-Mar 00:08 backup-sd: End of medium on Volume "Vol-0003" Bytes=21,474,818,876 Blocks=332,881 at 30-Mar-2007 00:08. 30-Mar 00:08 backup-dir: Created new Volume "Vol-0004" in catalog. 30-Mar 00:08 backup-sd: Labeled new Volume "Vol-0004" on device "File" (/tmp). 30-Mar 00:08 backup-sd: Wrote label to prelabeled Volume "Vol-0004" on device "File" (/tmp) 30-Mar 00:08 backup-sd: New volume "Vol-0004" mounted on device "File" (/tmp) at 30-Mar-2007 00:08. 30-Mar 00:14 backup-sd: Job write elapsed time = 01:09:35, Transfer rate = 7.647 M bytes/second 30-Mar 00:14 backup-dir: Bacula 2.0.3 (06Mar07): 30-Mar-2007 00:14:40 JobId: 4 Job: gandalf.2007-03-29_23.05.00 Backup Level: Incremental, since=2007-03-29 14:05:18 Client: "gandalf" 2.0.3 (06Mar07) i686-redhat-linux-gnu,redhat,(Zod) FileSet: "Home Set" 2007-03-29 11:54:17 Pool: "Default" (From Job resource) Storage: "File" (From Job resource) Scheduled time: 29-Mar-2007 23:05:00 Start time: 29-Mar-2007 23:05:03 End time: 30-Mar-2007 00:14:40 Elapsed time: 1 hour 9 mins 37 secs Priority: 10 FD Files Written: 38,621 SD Files Written: 38,621 FD Bytes Written: 31,923,730,782 (31.92 GB) SD Bytes Written: 31,930,104,420 (31.93 GB) Rate: 7642.7 KB/s Software Compression: 7.8 % VSS: no Encryption: no Volume name(s): Vol-0002|Vol-0003|Vol-0004 Volume Session Id: 4 Volume Session Time: 1175188894 Last Volume Bytes: 1,040,824,645 (1.040 GB) Non-fatal FD errors: 0 SD Errors: 0 FD termination status: OK SD termination status: OK Termination: Backup OK 30-Mar 00:14 backup-dir: Begin pruning Jobs. 30-Mar 00:14 backup-dir: No Jobs found to prune. 30-Mar 00:14 backup-dir: Begin pruning Files. 30-Mar 00:14 backup-dir: No Files found to prune. 30-Mar 00:14 backup-dir: End auto prune. But the real problem is why the system is requiring a full backup even though it says it's an incremental. As far as I can tell, every single file was backed up on the incremental which tells me that something in FC6 is modifying something that Bacula looks at. I should note that when I was setting the configuration files up, I simply backed up /etc and the full and incremental backups worked as expected. In this situation, I manually ran the job after modifying the bacula-dir file to make sure it would work. I then let the system do an automatic backup last night and was suprized that over 30GB of data were backed up. I'm gonna run out of disk space in a hurry at this rate :-) On Fri, 2007-03-30 at 14:04 +0200, Marc Schiffbauer wrote: > ... > Not really about your Problem: > > If I understand the docs correctly, your Options "signature", > and "compression" do *not* apply to your files, but instead to your > excluded files only, which makes no sense. > > I think yout have to add seperate > > Options { > signature = MD5 > compression = GZIP > } > > before the current one. > > Kern ist this right what I say? > > > About your Problem: Are you really sure that attributes of the files > or something like that have changed for example? > > -Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Take Surveys.
