Ana,

in german we have a saying: "Erst denken, dann reden" … maybe in english it's "think before you speak" …

Next time I will take care of this saying and think before I ask dumb questions …. :-)

Thanks a lot and sorry for annoying the community!

Hello Christoph,

The retention period for your volume is 6 months (180 days). And I think that you will be able to prune this volume at 2016-02-11 11:17:11 (passed 180 days).

Best regards,

Ana

Dear bacula users,

I am running bacula 7.2.0.

Yesterday I recognized that bacula doesn't seem to recycle one of my pools. Pool "Full" has a volume retention of 6 month, but see what happens:

*list files volume=FileM-0092
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+----------+---------------------+
| mediaid | volumename | volstatus | enabled | volbytes       | volfiles | volretention | recycle | slot | inchanger | mediatype | volparts | lastwritten         |
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+----------+---------------------+
|   4,712 | FileM-0092 | Full      |       1 | 21,474,818,746 |        4 |   15,552,000 |       1 |   92 |         1 | FileM     |        0 | 2015-08-15 11:17:10 |
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+----------+---------------------+

*prune volume=FileM-0092
The current Volume retention period is: 6 months
Continue? (yes/mod/no): yes
Found no Job associated with the Volume "FileM-0092" to prune


I think FileM-0092 should be purged because it was last written at 2015-08-15. Any ideas?

Kind regards

Christoph
