Hi, In section "24.2 Pruning Directives", Bacula documentation claims that the Volume Retention period begins only *after* the volume has already switched to a status other than Append:
---quote--- A key point is that this time period [Volume Retention] is not even considered as long at the Volume remains appendable. The Volume Retention period count down begins only when the Append status has been changed to some othe status (Full, Used, Purged, ...). ---quote ends--- I believe this is not true. In the rest of documentation, the three independent retention periods (File, Job, and Volume) described as all starting at the same point: specifically, at the end run time of a job.
