Why does Bacula (Bareos) create a full backup for each type of backup?
Greetings!
Installed, configured Bareos (Bacula fork), manually launched a FULL backup.
Today it's time to make an incremental backup, and she began to create a new full one, in the log:
2016-04-29 17:25:21 MainServer-dir JobId 3: No prior Full backup Job record found.
2016-04-29 17:25:21 MainServer-dir JobId 3: No prior or suitable Full backup found in catalog. Doing FULL backup.
Job {
Name = "Backup Desig INC"
Client = Desig
FileSet = "desigFileSet"
Type = Backup
Messages = Standard
Level = Incremental
Pool = Incremental
Storage = MainStorage
Schedule = "EveryDayAt5PM"
}
Job {
Name = "Backup Desig DIFF"
Client = Desig
FileSet = "desigFileSet"
Type = Backup
Messages = Standard
Level = Differential
Pool = Differential
Storage = MainStorage
Schedule = "EveryWeekAt5PM"
}
Job {
Name = "Backup Desig FULL"
Client = Desig
FileSet = "desigFileSet"
Type = Backup
Messages = Standard
Level = Full
Pool = Full
Storage = MainStorage
}

In general, I don’t know if you found a solution, I found it.
The bottom line is that each of the Jobs is an independent unit that creates a separate counter for itself in the directory. I.e
Job {
Name = "Backup Desig DIFF"
...
}
Job {
Name = "Backup Desig FULL"
...
}
Job {
Name = BareosConfBackup
Client = gazer-fd
Type = Backup
Level = Incremental
Pool = IncBareBup
Full Backup Pool = FullBareBup # Раз
Differential Backup Pool = DiffBareBup # Два
Incremental Backup Pool = IncBareBup # Три
File Set = BConfig
Schedule = WeeklyCycle
Priority = 10
Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bareos/%c.bsr"
Messages = Standard
}
Schedule {
Name = WeeklyCycle
Run = Level = Full 1st sun at 23:00 # Раз
Run = Level = Differential 2nd-5th sun at 23:00 # Два
Run = Level = Incremental mon-sat at 23:00 # Три
}
No prior Full backup Job record found.
Probably, the previous Full Backup was rotated. This is not a good situation, it means that if something does not work out, there is no full backup. I advise you to try Restore immediately after creating a full backup, to make sure that everything is ok, and then look for where it disappears.
