I have been experimenting with reducing my retention period, and have discovered that the reduction does not take effect until the next job run. Then old backups are marked stale, and the SQL scripts can delete/purge the old volume to reclaim space. The Consolidation job did not trigger the retention check on my backups like I thought it should. I've just freed about 300G by dropping my retention to 10 days, allowing me to continue to troubleshoot. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Russell Adams [email protected] PGP Key ID: 0x1160DCB3 http://www.adamsinfoserv.com/ Fingerprint: 1723 D8CA 4280 1EC9 557F 66E8 1154 E018 1160 DCB3 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "bareos-users" group.
