Just found a bunch more in

http://www.bacula.org/fr/dev-manual/Basic_Volume_Management.html

EVery single link under "Restricting the Number of Volumes and
Recycling" does it.

Not sure whether or not anyone cares about this ... but in case they do

I'm currently reading up on the config files and the directives within
there.   The manual seems to be pretty out of date.   Trying to find
out what "File Retention" means for example, within the "Client"
definition.

This part of the manual seems to describe the Client resource :
http://www.bacula.org/manuals/en/install/install/Client_Fi_daemon_Configura.html#FiledConfChapter

But it also seems pretty out of date and incomplete.  For one it says
that "Working Directory" is a required directive though the default
.conf files do not seem to use it.  It also does not list the "File
Retention" directive that I"m looking for.   So I started googling the
site for an explanation of "File Retention" and that's when I found
the first link above with all the recursive links.

Anyway ... just in case anyone cares.   Trying to read as much of the
manuals as I can before asking any more questions.
