Hello,

I need to free up space on the server holding the backup files.  I've read about changing retention periods (current is 30d and I want to change to 15d) and I've changed the File, Job, and Volume Retention periods in the client config file for my clients, and stopped / started the Bacula services.  However this hasn't changed anything.   When I go in to the bconsole I can list the volume and still see a retention period of 30 days.

I'm paranoid I'm gonna corrupt something and can't find / understand the docs about pruning.  Yes, AutoPrune is "on".

Help.

Thanks
