Post problem with incremental jobs 
I have Friday's set to Full and Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday set to
Incremental. I started last Thursday and it did a full backup because it
said that the 'No prior suitable Full backup found in catalog' - that
made sense. That backup completed.

Then Friday did a Full backup and that completed successfully.

Now Monday's backup should have been an incremental but indeed it did
another Full backup as you can see from the first 2 lines of the log...

11-Jun 20:00 SRV1: No prior Full backup Job record found.
11-Jun 20:00 SRV1: No prior or suitable Full backup found in catalog.
Doing FULL backup.
11-Jun 20:00 SRV1: Start Backup JobId 21,
Job=NightlySave.2007-06-11_20.00.00

which makes no sense to me...

appropriate parts of bacula-dir.conf

Job {
Name = "NightlySave"
Type = Backup
Client = SRV1
FileSet = "Full Set"
Schedule = "WeeklyCycle"
Storage = DDS-4
Messages = Standard
Pool = Default
Write Bootstrap = "/var/bacula/NightlySave.bsr"
Max Start Delay = 22h
}
Schedule {
Name = "WeeklyCycle"
Run = Level=Incremental Pool=MondayPool Monday at 8:00pm
Run = Level=Incremental Pool=TuesdayPool Tuesday at 8:00pm
Run = Level=Incremental Pool=WednesdayPool Wednesday at 8:00pm
Run = Level=Incremental Pool=ThursdayPool Thursday at 8:00pm
Run = Level=Full Pool=WeeklyPool Friday at 1:00pm
}

Shouldn't it have run an 'incremental' backup last night?

Craig,

one question, did you change the fileset after the full backup on friday?
Everytime the fileset is changed, bacula will make a full backup at the next
time.
