Hello all,

I am learning how to configure bacula and I think I have done something wrong regerding virtual migrations.  I have created a base, a full, a virtual full, a migration, a differential, and an incremental.  The incrementals are very small as expected.  The full is very small due to the base job, again as expected.  After the virtual full, the migration moves the data to the storage pool with the other volumes from that job.  The migration output says "Migration OK", which seems okay.

However, from what I can tell the differential backed up everything.  Did I do something wrong with the virtual migration?  Perhaps I'm missing something really obvious?

Here is my job list result.  The incremental sizes are very small and the differential size is pretty much everything.  I would expect the differential to be small as well but it's not.
