Hello,

I am using the following schedule for my backups:

        Run = Full sun at 1:00
        Run = Incremental mon-sat at 1:00


with a file retention of 7 days, meaning that I have max 7 days old backups. 
The problem now is that I can't restore from an incremental backup which has 
been done before the full backup. For example I have the following volumes:


|     296 | my--server-0296 | Used      |       1 |  4,109,209,857 |        0 
|      518,400 |       1 |    0 |         0 | my--server-fi | 2014-05-12 
01:06:52 |
|     298 | my--server-0298 | Used      |       1 |  3,039,832,140 |        0 
|      518,400 |       1 |    0 |         0 | my--server-fi | 2014-05-06 
01:05:27 |
|     300 | my--server-0300 | Used      |       1 |  3,022,800,501 |        0 
|      518,400 |       1 |    0 |         0 | my--server-fi | 2014-05-08 
01:05:42 |
|     302 | my--server-0302 | Used      |       1 |  3,232,145,498 |        0 
|      518,400 |       1 |    0 |         0 | my--server-fi | 2014-05-09 
01:04:56 |
|     304 | my--server-0304 | Used      |       1 |  3,436,895,417 |        0 
|      518,400 |       1 |    0 |         0 | my--server-fi | 2014-05-10 
01:08:08 |
|     306 | my--server-0306 | Used      |       1 | 24,675,023,712 |        5 
|      518,400 |       1 |    0 |         0 | my--server-fi | 2014-05-11 
02:09:51 |
|     309 | my--server-0309 | Used      |       1 |  2,985,503,512 |        0 
|      518,400 |       1 |    0 |         0 | my--server-fi | 2014-05-07 
01:05:48 |

as you can see (from the size) my full backup was done on 2014-05-11 02:09:51 
and I would like to restore a file which has been modified on 2014-05-09 but 
unfortunately this is not possible as bacula's console gives me the following 
error message:

No Full backup before 2014-05-09 01:03:38 found.

So my question here is: how do I need to configure bacula in order to restore 
files whenever during a 7 days period no matter if there is a full backup 
before available or not.

It can't be that I need to configure bacula to do a full backup every day 
right? I am sure there is a better solution.

Thanks for your help

Regards
ML
