Hi,

I have a problem with deduplication.

First I ran the base backup job.
Then the full backup job uses the base job
and produces a reasonable size of about 250MB.
So far so good.
But the next incremental seems not to use the base job.
It creates a backup with a size of 3GB wich comes close
to a standard full backup.

What could be wrong here?


Many thanks
Frank

Ok, I got it running.
I had to set the "BaseJob" option in the FileSet.

But now I have the problem that I cannot restore
Files.
I see only files that are backed up from the client
but no files from the base job.

How can I restore a directory that contains files
from the base job and files from the client?


Kind regards
Frank

I think you cant "see" the base job files but once you do restore it will include files from base jobs. At least for me it works great.
