After some server crash as Networker 7.2 start saving, we have now a stable Netware Cluster 6.5 during the backups.

But, the save.nlm (command save -c cluster_object) make allways full backup. The savegroup completion notice say "incr" but the backup is fullsize and the performance is poor (more then 7 hours for 47 GB !!!)

data-server: DATA: level=incr, 48 GB
data-server: DATA: level=full, 48 GB

Can anybody help us ?
 
This maybe if the media database is somehow corrupt that it is unable to recognize any existing full for this client. In such case NW will always override the level. However, you should see an appropriate message in the log files.
 
Are you running any sort of scanning / virus checking on the netware box?

Also as this is in a cluster are you failing between the two, check out if you are writting to the correct virtual index, if not this could be why you are seeing this problem.

Make sure your cluster is set up correctly and things such as pathownerignore are being used.
