[Bacula-users] Purpose of a Base Job - New Bacula Instance, am I understanding this correctly?

[Mister IT G. <mis...@gm...>]

Dear All,

Thank you for the time to read my post.

I have just built a new network with about 20 windows servers, all built
from the same VM image. This takes up about 1TB when I measure the size
of the systems, and it is my understanding, that I can take a base job,
and those files that are the same, (mainly the OS files, will not be
duplicated).

I guess the question I have is, does a base job expire? Or will it
remain on the storage daemon for ever, in order to keep the current full
backup valid?

Thank You
