Hallo all,
I'm new to Bareos and still having lunch over available documentation.
As part of my tasks, I have to move to Bareos as new backup system for my site.

Old backup system implemented a "versioning" approach so that we could decide 
how many version of a file to retain and for how long. Both for live (existing) 
and dead (deleted) items.

Bareos uses a FULL/INCR/DIFF schema instead so my question is:
How can I be sure to have at least the latest version (existing or backed up) 
of a particular filesystem?
My target is
1) have last version of a "dead" file (backed up and deleted from original 
location)
2) have two version of a "live" file (backed up and present on original 
location)

It is probably not possible but I wish to achieve something as close as 
possible.
Alternatively, the most efficient way to have:
- keep 1 copy of last 7 days, 
- keep 1 copy of last 4 weeks,
- keep 1 copy of last 12 months,
- keep 1 copy of every year forever.

I have ~50 servers with 1 main shared filesystem several TB in size.
thanks for your help!
ciao
Andrea
