[BackupPC-users] R: Re: Too many full backups?

[<abs...@li...>]

Hi,

for example I have this situation:

29  full  yes  0  4/1 12:32  593.7  20.9  /var/lib/backuppc/pc/server/29  
30  incr  no  1  4/6 15:23  87.2  15.8  /var/lib/backuppc/pc/server/30  
31  full  yes  0  4/9 05:31  327.8  13.2  /var/lib/backuppc/pc/server/31  
32  incr  no  1  4/10 14:58  43.0  11.8  /var/lib/backuppc/pc/server/32  
33  incr  no  1  4/11 21:06  46.5  10.5  /var/lib/backuppc/pc/server/33  
34  incr  no  1  4/14 23:18  47.2  7.4  /var/lib/backuppc/pc/server/34  
35  full  yes  0  4/17 16:56  86.6  4.7  /var/lib/backuppc/pc/server/35  
36  incr  no  1  4/18 22:54  47.3  3.4  /var/lib/backuppc/pc/server/36  
37  incr  no  1  4/21 15:18  45.5  0.8  /var/lib/backuppc/pc/server/37  

Why I still have backup 29 and 30?
Thank you very much
