Hello Erik,

On Bacula 7.0.5 version, the "purge action=truncate" do not exist any more.
There is a new truncate command that substittutes the "purge +
action=truncate" from previous versions:

  Command       Description
  =======       ===========
  truncate      Truncate one or more Volumes

Arguments:
        volume=<vol> [mediatype=<type> pool=<pool> allpools storage=<st>
drive=<num>]

Maybe you´re trying to do this in your RunScript resource:

Console = "truncate storage=FileStorage pool=Files"

Also, in previous versions, you should specify the volume name in the
command:

Console = "purge *volume=myvolumename* action=truncate storage=FileStorage
pool=Files"

Best regards,
Ana
