Hi bareos community,

I think, I have got problems to understand the right way for doing my
backup.

Following scenario should be covered:
short:
1 month of fullbackup, the rest should be backup up incremental. After
this month, the previous fullbackup should be overwritten with the next
full backup.

long:
I have got a sum of gigabyte of files. This sum should be backed up as
one full per month on the 1st. On the next month on the 1st, the
volumes should be purged and overwritten by the next job scheduled. I
have got following configuration:


Pool {
  Name = Full
  Pool Type = Backup
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
  Volume Retention = 60 seconds
  Maximum Volume Bytes = 1G
  Maximum Volumes = 1
  Label Format = "Full-"
}
Client {
  Name = bareos-client-fd
  Description = "Client resource of the Director itself."
  Address = bareos-client-fd
  Password = "XXXX"
  Job Retention = 60 seconds
}
Job {
  Name = "backup-bareos-client-fd"
  JobDefs = "DefaultJob"
  FileSet = "minimal"
  Client = "bareos-client-fd"
  Level = Full
}
FileSet {
  Name = "minimal"
  Description = "fileset just to backup some files for selftest"
  Include {
    Options {
      Signature = MD5 # calculate md5 checksum per file
    }
    File = "/root/file"
  }
}

The file "/root/file" has got a size of 600MB. This file can be
backuped one time. If I do another backup after 60 seconds, bareos
says, the volume is full.

Now how can I manage, that bareos updates the volumes, that jobs does
not continue after a full backup and prune before starting a new
backup?

Thank you for your time and support,
Ludwig
