Hi! I am useing daily tape rotation. I change tape every day and useing Full backup Level on each tape. Each tape has it's own volume and vaolume retention time is 6 days and 12 days for friday tape (I have 2 of friday tapes). Point is that after retention time Bacula automatically purges volume and makes tape writable again, so after every 7 days bacula would write brand new data to tape. But it don't do this, it marks tape Append, don't purge it and don't write new data to it. What could be wrong. For Bacula configuration I used description on http://www.bacula.org/en/rel-manual/Backup_Strategies.html#SECTION003030000000000000000 I attach example of my configuration too:
