Folks,

I have been running bacula (2.4.3) for couple of years. I thought that I had 
setup the retention period properly but today I found out that I did not do it 
correctly. Every first friday of the month I do full backup to tape, then I do 
full backup to disk. Rest of the days I do incremental backup to disk. I want 
to keep the tape backup info for two years, and the disk backup info for four 
months.

I set the "volume retention" option in the Pool definition and it keeps the 
volume definition in the database for more then 180 days, but all the job 
information (name of the files backed up, etc.) is purged from the database 
after 180 days. 

What other retention options do I need to set so that the job information is 
also kept in the database for the specified period?

Thanks.
