Hi folks,

Looking at last evening's backup reports, I noticed 3 incremental jobs
ran as full backups.
Since those 3 jobs are not newly created client jobs I am a bit
perplexed with the sudden change.

Following is the beginning of the messages from one of the backups.

----------------------------------------
02-Feb 23:00 backupserver-dir JobId 25712: No prior Full backup Job
record found.
02-Feb 23:00 backupserver-dir JobId 25712: No prior or suitable Full
backup found in catalog. Doing FULL backup.
02-Feb 23:00 backupserver-dir JobId 25712: Start Backup JobId 25712,
Job=MYSQLSRV.2011-02-02_23.00.25
02-Feb 23:00 backupserver-dir JobId 25712: Using Volume "040BCL" from
'Scratch' pool.
.....
.....
------------------------------------------------

Listing the individual jobs for one of the clients I see it dates back
to August of last year.

echo "list jobname=MYSQLSRV" | bconsole

list jobname=MYSQLSRV

   19,001,992 | T         |
| 21,433 | MYSQLSRV | 2010-08-09 23:00:00 | B    | I     |   10,038 |
1,115,911,081 | T         |

Any insight into what condition may have caused the incremental jobs
to be automatically changed to full backups? I am running Bacula
2.2.6.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Win
