Hi,

I have a backuppc installation, where i have a few problems.

1. Scheduling: We wish to schedule the clients backup only after
11:00am, and till 07:00pm. Further we want to keep only 1 full backup,
and 5 incremental backups for each weekday. I know having 1 full
backup is bad, but thats how the management wants it. This is how i
have setup in the config.pl file

$Conf{WakeupSchedule} = [11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19];

$Conf{FullPeriod} = '6.97';

$Conf{IncrPeriod} = '0.97';

$Conf{FullKeepCnt} = [1];

$Conf{FullKeepCntMin} = 1;

$Conf{FullAgeMax} = 90;

$Conf{IncrKeepCnt} = 5;

$Conf{IncrKeepCntMin} = 1;

$Conf{IncrAgeMax} = 6;

$Conf{IncrLevels} = [1];

Now i see that instead of taking 1 full backups, its keeping 2 full
backups. How do i force it to store only 1 backup ?
    

It's because of the incrementals.  You can't keep an incremental without
the related full backup.  So since you told it to keep 5 incrementals,
it will keep the extra full until the last related incremental is gone.
