Hi,

I have a small testbackup-enviroment with 24 Clients. On my Backuphost I have a 
SCSI LTO-2 Drive with 5 Tapes (Mon - Fri) and a storage partition for the most 
files. 

Device {
  Name = TapeStorage
  Media Type = LTO-2
  Archive Device = /dev/st0
  AutomaticMount = yes;               
  LabelMedia = no;                   
  AlwaysOpen = yes;
  RemovableMedia = yes;
  RandomAccess = yes;
}

Device {
  Name = FileStorage
  Media Type = File
  Archive Device = /Backup
  LabelMedia = yes;                   
  Random Access = Yes;
  AutomaticMount = yes;             
  RemovableMedia = no;
  AlwaysOpen = yes;
}

Pool {
  Name = TapePool
  Pool Type = Backup
  Recycle = yes                      
  AutoPrune = yes                   
  Volume Retention = 6 days
  Maximum Volume Bytes = 200G          
  Maximum Volumes = 10              
}

Pool {
  Name = FilePool
  Pool Type = Backup
  Recycle = yes          
  AutoPrune = yes                    
  Volume Retention = 14 days       
  Maximum Volume Bytes = 260G         
  Maximum Volumes = 50           
}


So far so good, I hope. Unfortunately the Tapes and the FileStorage will not 
automatically pruge. I always got the status full and nothing happens, but the 
volretention is already exceeded.

How I can change this? What command is useful, to purge the oldest jobs on the 
storage (not the hole storage)?  
Why is bacula not deleting the file on the volumes-space, if the process 
deletes the files from the table on the database?

thank you
