Hi there,
backup server is Debian lenny running bacula 5.02, client is debian sarge running bacula 1.38.11.

The server is a web server and on the 22nd a copy was made of the main site, if you look at the backup job for that day, you can see an extra 4000 files. We're running daily incrementals with a full at the start of the month.

Then a second copy was made on the 25th but the incrementals just show a few dozen new files.

So we've got the original and two copies, let's call them

www.mysite.com
copy1.mysite.com
copy2.mysite.com

Today we went to restore copy2.mysite.com, if we select "restore most recent backup for client" or "restore before specified time" then we get back 43 files out of 4000. If I just pick "restore" then I get 107 files out of 4000. This is the same if I go back a few days.
We can restore copy1.mysite.com but that's no use to us

A file verify ran on the 26th and it shows all the files from copy2.mysite.com but not copy1.mysite.com

Backups ran without any errors, I've checked the alert emails. I'm trying to run bscan on the volumes to see if that produces any different results but I'm having trouble with the syntax.

Does anyone have any idea where the files are and how I can stop this happening again? My first thought was that the directories weren't copied but symlinked, I'm assured this is not the case.

BTW, I'm not using tape, this is all on disk
