What is important here: I changed *nothing* in bacula, I only changed *many*
files on the client. That was all. And during the nightly scheduled incremental
backup bacula started a full backup. A modification in the bacula config took
not place. All I can assume is bacula calculated the amount of files / size
from the affected files and came to the conclusion that the incremental backup
to do would be nearly like a full backup, so it changed the job by its own to
make a full backup to have the next incremental backups much more smaller. That
sounds reasonable, but I don't want that kind of consideration ;)
Ok, here the Output:
(I cancled 534 before the Full Backup really started.)
