What is the File Retention period set to?

There are 3 levels at which bacula will prune database info: file level 
(all separate files from a job), job level (the full job) and volume 
level (all jobs on a given volume). If your File Retention is set to 3 
months (for example) and autoprune is enabled than after those 3 months 
you'll only be able to restore the full job, not separate files.
