Hi...

I have this situation:

A small SD in the server (2TB) with a retention period of 3 months.
and a other SD in a disk USB (1TB) with a retention period of 1 month.

Note: the idea is leave only the more recently backups (one month) in
internal and external disk.. .and the oldest backup in the internal
disk (we don't believe that we will need this old backups in the
future).

I have configured the bacula director to copy all jobs from server to
disk USB...
that worded OK.. but after a month.. the director purge the volumes
with one month or more at the disk USB and after this the director
copy the old jobs again to usb disk !! :-(


my job copy is configured to copy all "uncopied" jobs
(PoolUncopiedJobs).. but, apparently the director consider that if the
volume don't exist in the other SD, the volume isn't copied and make a
new copy job !!!

any idea to workaround this ??
