Incremental job estimates all files rather than actual incremental

I have a client that’s using Always Incremental job scheme.
I recently noticed a client who’s backups were failing a lot. This client uses client intimated connections (work from home) and has always proved unreliable connections.
Now though when I can get connections to work it tries on an incremental job to download every file on the host, and not sure why. We have a valid virtual full, and file records appear to not be pruned because
list files jobid=20753 | wc -l

So as you can see Incremental and Full are returning the same file list, but the job has a valid Full (when a job runs it does not say it upgraded to Full because no prior full) and the difference in data between the full on tape and the host is what we would expect.
So with no change to fileset or job definition, we are getting unexpected behavior.

Hi
i'm currently trying to find the solution for a similar if not the same
problem.
I'm doing accurate Always Incremental Scheme. I made a successful Full
backup, then changed inherited ACL down the whole data tree.
When i'm doing an accurate Incremental now, it tries to backup all
files, allthough my accurate fileset options are set to watch for mtime
and size changes only. Is this intended behaviour, even with accurate=ms ?
The fileset looks like this:
FileSet {
Name = "bigone-ai-fremddaten"
Include {
File = /daten/bigone/fremddaten
Options {
accurate = ms
mtimeonly = yes
####signature=MD5
aclsupport=yes
xattrsupport=yes
}
}
}
BTW:
the Full consists of approx. 85000 files. When i run
estimate job=BIGONE-AI-FREMDDATEN level=incremental accurate=yes
bconsole silently dies..
