[Bacula-users] method to keep minimum # of backups?

Is there a configuration method to specify that a minimum number of backups 
should always be retained, overriding all retention and purging?

Do you think you can guess the scenario that's prompting this question? :)

For example, the normal backup schedule for "my_important_server" is a monthly
full backup, with a retention period of 6 months. I'd like to specify that there
must always be at least 1 full backup of "my_important_server", which would
supercede the retention settings. In this case, if seven consecutive full
backups (over 7 months) failed, with old backups being purged each month as
their retention periods are reached, the most recent full backup would still
not be purged, leaving the most recent successful backup on tape.

Thanks,

Mark
