Hi,
I run a 30-tape rotation for backups, with 14-day retention periods.
This leaves about 2/3 of the tapes available for backups at any given
time. However, when all the tapes go to status Full, and automatic
pruning occurs, it seems like some of the tapes get skipped. Below is
what my current media information looks like. After filling Castor-23,
all tapes were full, so pruning occurred. As you can see, though all the
tapes were written in order, tapes 3,4,6,9, and 12 were not marked as
Purged. This means that as the rotation proceeds, these tapes will be
skipped and my order will be screwed up.
...
I can manually prune the volume using the Director, by entering "prune",
selecting "Volume", then choosing for example 3, and the volume will
then be marked as purged, but I want this to happen automatically. What
am I doing wrong?
Are you using volume and job retention times?
