Summary0000703: Always Increment mode Consolidate job
DescriptionThere is no product version for 16.2.4, so I reported with an older version.

I have several "Always Increment Mode" jobs running each having their own client and pool. The consolidate jobs are also setup as such. I noticed that when a consolidate job runs it seems to consolidate for all pools not just the pools associated with the job. If this is how it is suppose to work it wasn't very clear in the documentation.
Additional InformationConfiguration snapshot:

Job {
  Name = "client1"
  Enabled = yes
  JobDefs = "AlwaysIncrementalMode"
  Full Backup Pool = client1-Full
  Pool = client1-Inc
  Client = client_mach
  Priority = 9
  FileSet = "Linux All - Server"
}

Job {
  Name = "client1Consolidate"
  Enabled = yes
  JobDefs = "Consolidate"
  Pool = client1-Inc
  Client = client_mach
  Priority = 9
  FileSet = "Linux All - Server"
}
Job {
  Name = "Client2Backup"
  Enabled = yes
  JobDefs = "AlwaysIncrementalMode"
  Pool = Client2-Inc
  Full Backup Pool = Client2-Full
  Client = Client2_
  FileSet = "Windows All Drives"
}

Job {
  Name = "Client2Consolidate"
  Enabled = yes
  JobDefs = "Consolidate"
  Pool = Client2-Inc
  Client = Client2
  FileSet = "Windows All Drives"
}

Here is a message from one consolidate job running (I expected these consolidations to be separate jobs, since they are separate pools):

Yes, it is intended in this way. I'll update the documentation to clarify this.

FYI: Filtering for a consolidate job based on Storage or Pool will not make sense. However, future releases may include a filtering based on Job names (Selection Type = Job, Selection Pattern = .*).
