2nd backups after USB insertion

Second backups:

 

Proactive backups set to once a day will re-backup the entire client if a USB or external drive is attached to the system during the day.

 

I'm looking for a way to disable this and haven't found anything in Script>Options, Preferences or Secret Prefs.

Have you tried adjusting the client properties on the server (Configure --> Clients)? I always use "Selected Volumes" and then highlight the volumes I want to backup. I believe that this limits the volumes that are available to Retrospect. Not 100% sure how that works with USB devices.

It works just fine with USB devices. We use "Selected Volumes" here to avoid backing up USB pins, cell phones, digital cameras, USB drives etc etc.
