Subject: Re: [Bacula-users] Quick Question on Windows 2003 backup to Debian Director

We are backing up a Windows 2003 Small Business Server using Bacula (5.0.2) with the Director and FD on a Debian Server. It is an incremental backup. However, we have quite a few older files that just keep on getting backed up although nothing is touching or changing those files.
This is how I define the FileSet:
FileSet {
Name = "Windows Server"
Enable VSS = yes
Include {
Options {
compression = GZIP
}
File = "C:/Apps"
File = "C:/Users"
File = "C:/System State Backup"
Plugin = "exchange:/@EXCHANGE/Microsoft Information Store"
}
}
If I may ask - how long are the retention periods on those backups? - Also, it's been mentioned on the list recently, that the exchange plugin doesn't work properly, ( it was mentioned to me!) But I'm going to assume that you have the exchange plugin working as you expect?

I am using a 60 day file retention and 6 month job retention.
Regarding the Exchange Backup – it appears to work (I can’t see an issue), but I haven’t tried a test restore yet. Is there more information about how it isn’t working?
