"The Volume Retention period count down begins only when the Append status
has been changed to some othe status (Full, Used, Purged, ...).
When this time period expires, and if AutoPrune is set to yes, and a new
Volume is needed, but no appendable Volume is available, Bacula will prune
(remove) Job records that are older than the specified Volume Retention
period. "
"When all file catalog entries are removed from the volume, its VolStatus is
set to Purged."
I can't see this happening..
"After all Volumes of a Pool have been pruned (as mentioned above, this
happens when a Job needs a new Volume and no appendable Volumes are
available), Bacula will look for the oldest Volume that is Purged (all Jobs
and Files expired), and if the Recycle flag is on (Recycle=yes) for that
Volume, Bacula will relabel it and write new data on it."
Ok, so recycling won't happen because volumes are not marked as Purged..
But how to get them Purged? Shouldn't that happen automatically.. I'm
missing something from the configuration, but can't figure out what..
