Hi,

you can't split full and diff backups into different jobs. When Bacula
makes a differential backup, it looks for a full backup of the same job
to base it on.

Just use the "(Full|Differential|Incremental) Backup Pool" options in a
*single* job definition to tell Bacula to put each level into a
different pool, then set the storage to use in the pool definitions.
