Hi,

I backup to to file storage. I also create a new volume for every  
backup job. So for a client I may have Full-0001,  Diff-0001, and  
Incr-0001, Incr-0002, Incr-0003.

Recently we found that our volume retention was WAY to long, and I  
wanted to purge some volumes and get some free space on the filesystem  
again. I found it difficult to find which volumes went to where , and  
I figured I am just missing something.

I basically went back through my email logs, looked for the jobs for a  
client and what volume they wrote. Purged them and then removed them  
from the disk. There has to be a easier way, and I assume a better way  
inside of bconsole.

I had thought this may be a good one to use the sql query ability of  
bconsole, but I am not 100% certain.

Thanks for any help,

Charlie
