Hello,
One other point about this. Semi-automatic detection of backing up files
multiple times could be done with the estimate bconsole command turning
on listing, then processing the output through sort and looking for
duplicates.
Perhaps an interesting "feature" might be to add another opt
Hello,
Yes, Bacula could become much smarter about this, but it requires two
things:
1. Bacula will require *significantly* more resources (CPU and memory)
to do such a backup.
2. You would need to find a programmer interested in writing the
necessary code -- it is not a monster project, but i

Well bacula will do what you tell it, so it's up to you to figure out
if there are dupl

What you could try is to do a restore job, then pick "list jobs where

Greetings,
I just discovered that I was backing up certain directories on my
system(s) multiple
