If you want to run a full each week then a day should be inserted here > Run = Level=Full Pool=Full on 1st at 2:00 # (#04) Run = Level=Full Pool=Full on sun at 2:00 # (#04) Then every sunday at 2 (I would avoid the 2-3 range due to DST) a full is run. As advise, I would always have at least 2 full backups, if for any reasons the last run failed you still have one. -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch openSUSE Member & Board, fsfe fellowship GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "bareos-users" group.
