Hello everyone,

I have a job backing up several hundreds of To.
Job is incremental, every week, so only hundreds of Go, or a few To every
week.
After bad manipulation ( I know, I know...), we lost the bacula
configurations (jobs, fileset, etc.) *but not the database*.

So we reinstalled bacula, connected it to the old database, recreated Jobs
and filesets etc.
Quite a quick and easy task. In Baculum, everything seems to be back as
before.

Of course, some fileset configs may have change a little bit but for me it
was not a real issue : I just want the job to backup new files, that's all.
Also I added Ignore FileSet Changes = yes in the FileSet, to be sure it
would not start a new full backup...

So I was expecting it would "go on" as if nothing happened.
But when I do an estimate, Bacula seems to be wanting to do a brand new
full backup.
This is very annoying, since it would take months, dozens of tapes, etc.

I would like Bacula to resume at the point where it left off.

Anyone knows how to achieve that ?

Thanks a lot for your help !

Sam
