Re: [Bacula-users] including a file twice

I'd imagine that since files get backed up according to their absolute paths in the file system that you'd only get one copy. That's just a guess from doing restores and poking around at the database. If not, I'd imagine that the scenario could really make muck up a backup. How would it know where to seek in the tape? I guess it could just select the first position and ignore the second....

Hi all,

quick question: if I include a file twice in the FileSet will bacula
back it up twice or is it smart enough to only write one copy of it?

TIA
