Hello,

I have a very out of control bacula database (350GB).   I think the problem is because although we do have Volume Retention settings correct, we have AutoPrune disabled.  If I understand the docs correctly having the AutoPrune off is preventing the old database records from being deleted.

I am unsure why we have AutoPrune disabled, but assuming we want to keep it that way is there a work around to this problem?  If I enabled AutoPrune now will it retroactively delete the old database records or am I out of luck?

Thanks,

Eric
