The first vm backup ran both full and diff

Hi,

I have created a new policy for vmware. Onyl differential was chosen for yesterday. After taking the first backup in full,  then ran differential backup. Since there is no full backup before, it is normal to take the first backup in full. But is it normal to start differential immediately when full backup is finished?

    Well ,

    This completely depends on how the policy is configured.

    Can you list output of bppllist <policy name> -U ?

    as mentionned before, please put the output of bppllist yourpolicy -U and also verify the type of execution on your job details (automatic or manual).
