I did first backup of one vm from pve. On PBS used space increased only 3GB, in backup log I see "INFO: backup was done incrementally, reused 36.68 GiB (36%)".
Does it mean that wasn't full backup? How to make incremental backup when we haven't got any full backup?
 
no it just meant that there were already chunks within this one backup that could be duplicated (e.g. continuous blocks of zeroes)
