Amanda always doing full backup?
2009-05-14 09:45:26
I recently changed my config from
dumpcycle 4 weeks
runspercycle 20
tapecycle 25 tapes
to
dumpcycle 2 weeks
runspercycle 12
tapecycle 50 tapes
backups are working fine, but I'm confused by the following output
which is just an example of one device:
$ amadmin DailySet1 find quercus sda8
date host disk lv tape or file file part status
2009-04-23 quercus sda8 0 DailySet1-04 5 -- OK
2009-04-24 quercus sda8 1 DailySet1-05 5 -- OK
2009-04-25 quercus sda8 0 DailySet1-06 5 -- OK
2009-04-28 quercus sda8 0 DailySet1-07 6 -- OK

2009-05-09 quercus sda8 0 DailySet1-16 6 -- OK
2009-05-10 quercus sda8 0 DailySet1-17 6 -- OK
2009-05-12 quercus sda8 0 DailySet1-18 6 -- OK
2009-05-13 quercus sda8 0 DailySet1-19 6 -- OK
2009-05-14 quercus sda8 0 DailySet1-20 6 -- OK
It seems that for the last fews days Amanda is doing a full backup
every night. The filesystem on sda8 contains only the lost+found
directory and it or its contents are not changing.
However, according to the backup report, incrementals are definitely
happening:

So, I guess my question has to do with interpreting the output from
'amadmin find'. Do the '0s' indicated full backups?
