For each Full Backup(every monday) i need about 12GB, right now i have
less than 9GB i need to flush some Volume(set to zero), bacula handle
this or i need to doit manually..?
Bacula only frees space when it recycles a volume. To manually achieve
what you want, you should either set up a job that recycles the volumes
in question (probably modifying your retention strategy) and writes a
tiny amount of data to them, or you manually delete the volumes first
from the catalog (through a Bacula console) and then from disk.
This is one of my oldest volumes:
Pool: MueblexFull
MediaId: 1
VolumeName: MueblexFull01
Slot: 0
PoolId: 1
MediaType: File
FirstWritten: 2006-04-03 18:00:03
LastWritten: 2006-04-04 00:14:13
LabelDate: 2006-04-03 18:00:03
VolJobs: 4
VolFiles: 2
VolBlocks: 172,529
VolMounts: 4
VolBytes: 11,130,017,683

VolStatus: Used

VolRetention: 691,200

MaxVolBytes: 0
InChanger: 1
EndFile: 2
EndBlock: 2,540,083,303
VolParts: 0
LabelType: 0
StorageId: 1
My maximum retention period is 8 days, my first write for this volume
was on 2006-04-03 - 2006-04-20 = 17 days older.
Last Written is more important... anyway, without a good reason Bacula
will not delete the data in it, or rather truncate or delete the file.
This is my other older volume:
MediaId: 3
VolumeName: MueblexFull-02
Slot: 0
PoolId: 1
MediaType: File
FirstWritten: 2006-04-10 18:00:02
