Backup of a New Client Defaults to a Level Full

The first time you back up a new client, you receive the following message:

mars:/usr no cycles round in media db; doing full save.

In this example, the /usr filesystem on the mars client has no full saves listed in the media database. Therefore, regardless of the backup level selected for the client's schedule, Backup performs a full backup. This feature is important because it enables you to perform disaster recoveries for the client.

You may also receive this message if the server and client clocks are not synchronized. To avoid this, make sure that the Backup server and the client are in the same time zone and have their clocks synchronized.
