Post incrementals 
Hi,
I am backing up /home on one server to file storage on another.
I would like a "full" to happen 4 times a year and incrementals every
other day so I set up the following schedule:
Schedule {
Name = "homesched"
Run = Full on 1 jan apr jul oct at 18:05
Run = Incremental daily at 1:05
}

My problem is that after the first FULL backup completes OK and
incremental is supposed to go next and it seems to be doing another full
instead of backing up only the new or changed files.
Can anyone suggest why or how to fix it?
The clocks are perfectly synchronized on both servers.

Thanks

The pool is:
# Default pool definition
Pool {
Name = Default
Maximum Volumes = 500 # Bacula can automatically recycle Volumes
Maximum Volume Bytes = 4831838208
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
Volume Retention = 14 days # half a month
Label Format="File-"
}

It might help to know what was printed in the log for these jobs.
