Good Day,

 
I’m using bacula 2.2.6 on a Centos5 server.  I have a disk storage array that I’m using for backups.  I am having an issue with backups files being created, then not deleted after the set retention policy, causing me to run out of disk space.  I tried a few different configurations but I still can’t get the behavior I’m looking for.  
 
I can see files being recycled, but it seems to happen right before its next use,
 
26-Apr 11:41 backup1-dir JobId 2103: There are no more Jobs associated with Volume "Full_2372". Marking it purged.
26-Apr 11:41 backup1-dir JobId 2103: All records pruned from Volume "Full_2372"; marking it "Purged"
26-Apr 11:41 backup1-dir JobId 2103: Recycled volume "Full_2372"
26-Apr 11:41 backup1-sd JobId 2103: Labeled new Volume "Full_2372" on device "Storage1" (/storage1).
26-Apr 11:41 backup1-sd JobId 2103: Wrote label to prelabeled Volume "Full_2372" on device "Storage1" (/storage1)
26-Apr 11:41 backup1-sd JobId 2103: New volume "Full_2372" mounted on device "Storage1" (/storage1) at 26-Apr-2008 11:n device "Storage2" (/storage2).
 
Then it is used for a backup.  Is there a way to get it to reuse volumes quicker?  I still have files from April around when I should only be keeping files for 2 weeks.
