Hi Erik

After adding the "Action on Purge = truncate" to your pool(s), you need to
perform a few extra steps, especially if you have existing volumes in those
pool(s) already:

In bconsole:

* update pool=PoolYouModified   (repeat for each pool)

then to set the Truncate on Purge flag for each volume already existing in the
pool(s).

* update volume fromallpools

Then, to verify that all of your volumes have been updated:

* llist volumes

Make sure they all have "ActionOnPurge: 1"


If this is all good, then the commands Ana explained should now work as 
expected.

Hope this helps!

Have a great weekend!

Bill
