Just to clarify for myself,
As I understand it, if I purge a job, that means it will remove all reference 
to the job and the files in the job from the database and mark all the volumes 
used for that job as purged.
If that is correct then:
        1. If I'm using disk based backups, the files will still be there. 
Correct? 
        2. When the job runs again, it will re-use those volumes/filenames, 
overwriting them. Correct?
        3. Will it do that before creating new files?
        4. Is this also true of a job that was cancelled?
