Hi,

I have 3 Pools - Daily, Weekly and Archive as follows

Pool {
   Name = Nightly
   Pool Type = Backup
   AutoPrune = yes
   Volume Retention = 6 days
   Recycle = yes
   ..
}

Pool {
   Name = Weekly
   Pool Type = Backup
   AutoPrune = yes
   Volume Retention = 8 days
   Recycle = yes
   ..
}

Pool {
   Name = Archive
   Pool Type = Backup
   AutoPrune = no
   Volume Retention = 100 years
   Recycle = no
   ..
}

I want to retain File and Job records in the Catalog forever for the 
Archive Pool. If I configure the Client as follows

Client {
   Name = foo-fd
   Address = foo.example.com
   FDPort = 19102
   Catalog = MyCatalog
   Password = xxx
   File Retention = 100 years
   Job Retention = 100 years
   AutoPrune = yes
}

will File and Job records in the Catalog for the Weekly and Nightly 
Pools be purged as per the "Volume Retention" periods for each Pool?

Thanks,

-stephen
