Hello-
I am experiencing the exact same situation as Erik Olsen did when he posted to
the list last week. I have yet to hear from him whether he has succeeded in
truncating purged volumes automatically. I am still getting the message that
there are no volumes to truncate when in fact there are volumes that have been
purged from the MyCatalog catalog. I do not want to have to manually delete
these purged volumes anymore so please do bear with me!
Here's a part of my Jobs definition which is exactly the same for all other
jobs definitions except for the file sets, storage, and pools:
Job {
Name = "aries"
JobDefs = "DefaultJob"
Type = Backup
Level = Incremental
Client = aries-fd
FileSet = "Aries Set"
Schedule = "ariesWeeklyCycle"
Storage = FileStoragearies
Write Bootstrap = "/var/db/bacula/aries.bsr"
Pool = aries# Set up truncation of purged volumes
RunScript {
RunsWhen=After
RunsOnClient=No
Console = "truncate storage=FileStoragearies pool=aries"
}
}
The pool definition:
Pool {
Name = aries
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = no # Bacula can automatically recycle Volumes
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
Volume Retention = 2 months # one year
# Accept Any Volume = yes # write on any volume in the pool
Label Format =
"Backup_aries-fd_${Year}-${Month:p/2/0/r}-${Day:p/2/0/r}_${Hour:p/2/0/r}.${Minute:p/2/0/r}.${Second:p/2/0
/r}"
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Action On Purge = Truncate
}
A sample of the "llist volumes pool=aries" command output:

comment:
As you can see this particular volume in the "aries" pool is marked purged and
actiononpurge = 1.
Running "truncate storage=FileStoragearies pool=aries" produces this:
*truncate storage=FileStoragearies pool=aries
No Volumes found to perform truncate action.

Can you please tell me what I could be overlooking if at all??? Running Bacula
