Suppose I've this bacula-dir.conf snapshot:


Client {
  Name = foo-fd
  Catalog = MyCatalog
  File Retention = 12 months
  Job Retention = 12 months
  AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired Jobs/Files
}

Pool {
  Name = Daily
  Pool Type = Backup
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
  Volume Retention = 5 days
  Maximum Volume Bytes = 800G
  Volume Use Duration = 23h
  Maximum Volumes = 5
}

Pool {
  Name = Monthly
  Pool Type = Backup
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
  Volume Retention = 1 year
  Maximum Volume Bytes = 800G
  Volume Use Duration = 23h
  Maximum Volumes = 1
}


It's correct to say that:
the jobs done in the pool daily will stay in the catalog for 5 days,
then purged. ( Even if in the fd definition I've 12 month, the Volume
retention when is passed
all jobs that are on the "retented" volume will be purged)
the monthly one to stay for one year and then purged is it correct?,
is that correct? (otherwhise my catalog will be veeeery big)

tank you

ciao
