I am still confused about retentiontimes.
I have defined a pool (aca) with a volume-retention of 6days. A client has a 
retention (job and file) of 365 days.  I have the following schedule:

# The ACA-SOLARIS-schedule
Schedule {
  Name = aca-solaris-cycle
  Run = Level=Differential Pool=aca mon-thu at 22:30
  Run = Level=Full Pool=aca-week 1st-4th fri at 22:30
  Run = Level=Full Pool=aca-month 5th fri at 22:30
}

Will the files/jobs of the differential backup been deleted from the database 
after 6 days ? 

Here the pools
Pool {
  Name = aca
  Pool Type = Backup
  Volume Retention = 6 days
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
}

# Weekly ACA Pool
Pool {
  Name = aca-week
  Pool Type = Backup
  Volume Retention = 4 weeks
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
}

# Monthly ACA Pool
Pool {
  Name = aca-month
  Pool Type = Backup
  Volume Retention = 1 years
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
}

And here a client sample:
# ITSHAS-SV04
Client {
  Name = itshas-sv04-fd
  Address = itshas-sv04
  FDPort = 9102
  Catalog = MyCatalog
  Password = xxx
  File Retention = 365 days
  Job Retention = 365 days
  AutoPrune = yes
}
