Good morning list,
I've a question about backup performed with bacula.
I manage a DELL server (dedicated on provider) with C7. I use bacula as
backup system with volumes on disk. System performs mon-sat incremental
backups and Sun full backup at 03.00 AM. I've another pool (named
update) where I performs backup before each software update. Storage is
on and external disk 2.5' of 1TB.
Yesterday, I've applied centos update and I've performed a full backup
before apply updates. Job done.
After several hours, I got my disk unmounted and disconnected due to
disk error (seems that this disk is failing) and was unable to remount
disk. Rebooting system, the disk was mounted correctly.
This morning I've checked if something happened. Backup performed and
disk mounted without errors but I've noticed a strange behaviour.
My incremental backup is large as last full backup (performed on
sunday). This is the last jobs performed.

Job with id 79 was aborted due to disk failure.
Why, if I have a job full performed on sunday, on monday I got an incr
job with the same size? Seems to be that the last incremental job was
performed without considering the last full backup.
I've checked log but there aren't errors.
Thanks.
Alessandro.
