Hello everyone.

I seem to be having a strange issue with the schedule of my backups.
This is the schedule I use:

Schedule {
  Name = "MonthlyCycle"
  Run = Full on 1 at 3:15
  Run = Differential sun at 3:15
  Run = Incremental mon-sat at 3:15
}


I do not know why, but on the first of every month, bacula tries to do both the Full backup AND the incremental

I think you need to explicitly tell bacula that you don't want the incremental run on the 1st. For example, I have this:

 Schedule {
   Name = worldsys
   Run = Level=Incremental on 1-2 at 00:05
   Run = Level=Incremental on 4-31 at 00:05
   Run = Level=Differential on 3 at 00:05
}

I am using Bacula in a small home operation, so I run my Full backups by hand, once every 6 months, but I want to run a Differential instead of an Incremental once a month. The above schedule says to run the incremental on all days except the 3rd, and run a differential on the 3rd.
