Bacula Users,

I am looking for bacula to automatically delete volumes older than 30 days.
I'm not sure bacula is capable of deleting the actual volumnes or if I
should write a script and have it run after the catalog job(last one each
night). I am not using a tape drive, I am writing volume files to my
server's hard disk raid. Here is my POOL resource in director config:
# File Pool definition
Pool {
  Name = NFS
  Pool Type = Backup
  Recycle = yes                       # Bacula can automatically recycle
Volumes
  AutoPrune = yes                     # Prune expired volumes
  Volume Retention = 30 days          # one month
  Recycle Oldest Volume = yes
  Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
  Label Format = "NFS_BACKUP_${Year}-${Month:p/2/0/r}-${Day:p/2/0/r}"
}

Is there a way I can change the resource so that volumes will be deleted?
If not a simple script should do the trick right?
Appreciate any responses.

Thanks,
*                                                            *
