Folks,

  I ran my first production backup of bacula last weekend. I did a full backup 
to tape, then full backup to disk. Next was incremental backup. Bacula said 
that it was doing incremental backup but it actually did a full backup. I am 
running bacula 2.4.0. Here are the e-mails I received.

As you can see the amount of data backups is almost the same (60GB).
This was done over a long weekend, so very few files changed on this 
filesystem.
