I think I understand what you mean here -- How can I get bacula to
output all the failed job numbers, so that I can purge them all? Do I
have to manually go through the logs? I've got close to 500 jobs!

purge

and then job

but you would have to know what jobs. You could probably do a query to
get this however and script the purge.

Also remember that bacula only recycles an entire volume at a time
purging individual jobs may not free up any space on your storage.
This is highly dependent on what maximum size you allow for your
volumes.
