I've tried both suggestions given here update pool from resource update all volumes in pool
which shows the lower period, but "list media" still has the old retention period. and the more interactive bconsole update ...... which had the same result. So I ended up doing update Volume=Vol0001 which did let me select Volume Retention Period and it did take effect. Now Vol0001 shows an expiration date that has passed, what else do I need to do to be sure I can safely remove the Vol0001 file? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.
