urBackup doesn't honour disabling incremental image backup

Hello,

I disabled incremental backup and scheduled full image backups once in a week from Saturday to Sunday The configuration looks like this:

Nevertheless UrBackup seems keeping trying to make an incremental image backup:

In the log I see:

The Client runs on Windows 2008 R2, Server on Debian 8. Do I miss something?

Have you checked if this setting properly propagated to the client?

It seems that the settings aren’t propagated to the client. How can I achieve that they are?

Is it just the one machine?

On the server side there are default options, but you can override those and set client specific options. If you set a client specific option and then disabled the image backups, it would not change for that machine.

I disabled “Allow client-side changing of settings”. It seems that this setting does the trick. At the client side settings aren’t displayed any more.

Sounds like you had that client still configured in the client GUI to do image backups.
