[Bacula-users] retention times...

Hi,
I just wanted to confirm, for my own benefit :), that when a volume is recycled ( as per the 'volume Retention' settings), all Job and File records contained in that volume are gone.

With the caveat that if the volume is not overwritten by a subsequent job, one can use bscan to restore this information into the database.

Effectively, this means that, if I want to keep my Job and File records in the DB, I should either set 'Auto Prune' to false (which does *not* affect *Volume* retention/recycling policies), or set Job/File retention to long enough periods so that the are not relevant (ie, Volume recycling kicks in first).

TIA,
b
