Hi, I'm new to bacula and I have a (hope) simple question to submit.
I set up a daily incremental job on a volume pool whose retention period is 15 days (autoprune = yes, recycle = yes). For semplicity I also configure bacula to write each backup job over one (separate) volume ... This job on the 1st day it will perform a full backup, while the following days it will increment all those files created/modified on the host from the first full backup ... correct? On the 15th day since the first job (Full), the retention period causes the deletion of the first full backup. Correct? Now what happens: 1- bacula performs again a full backup on the next job (day 16th)? 2- if the previous answer is yes, the incremental jobs of days 2-15 are mantained either without the first full backup? In this case do I have also to setup a full backup job every 15 days with the retention period of 16 days (in order to keep a full backup to be used with the incremental archieves of days 2-15)? Please can someone help me to solve this issue? I still have to gain experience in bacula ...
