Yes, it's normal that it fails in these cases. But it's not normal that it is not able to recover from it without removing all increments. For example, in case of corruption, it should ignore all corrupted files, but it should not completely prevent creating new backups or prevent restoring correct backups. Now it seems all rdiff-backup operations are completely blocked until you manually remove all increments, even of files which are not corrupted. This is unacceptable for me. I had never such experiences with Bacula. -- Frederik
