Cannot take more than 8 NDMP Incrementals #2081

@arogge

Description

@arogge

Bareos component version

any

Steps to reproduce

  1. Setup NDMP BAREOS job
  2. Take a Full Backup
  3. Take 9 Incrementals on top of that Full

Expected results

Bareos should run the ninth incremental backup without failing.

Actual results

Job fails with "NDMP dump format doesn't support more than 8 incrementals, please run a Differential or a Full Backup"

Environment

- OS: ``
- component:

Relevant log output

Relevant traces output

Anything else?

I realize there is a limit in NDMP, but at least modern filers can do 31 incrementals and I'd really like to not be limited by Bareos itself.
