Linux workstation starts doing the backup twice

So if you do not want it to retry again on failure set client retries for the group to zero.

How can I make sure that the backup sucessfuly done?

When I check the indexs it shows there the date of the backup,
Yes, I stopped the the second time backup manually.

Do not get confused between index and saveset backups - your index backups will run after the saveset backups regardless as to whether or not the saveset backup was successful. Index backups come from the backup server so tend to have less reasons for failure and thus more chance of success. Savesets come from a client which may be subject to issues that only affect that client - network issues, DNS errors etc.

My question now is:
How can I make sure that the backup sucessfuly done?

By looking at monitor tab for group status and you can verify it also via flags in mdb obtainable via mminfo.

If you are extra paranoid you run cloning or "do nothing" restore against saveset.
