HI all no matter how many times I read the page on volume management I cant get my head around it.
I have 3 servers with 4tb of storage each. I cant seem to figure out how to stop baroes simply eating all the space up. Here are my pools.. Pool { Name = Differential Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes # Bareos can automatically recycle Volumes AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes Volume Retention = 15 days # How long should the Differential Backups be kept? (#09) Maximum Volume Bytes = 10G # Limit Volume size to something reasonable Maximum Volumes = =100 # Limit number of Volumes in Pool Label Format = "Differential-" # Volumes will be labeled "Differential-<volume-id>" } Pool { Name = Full Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes # Bareos can automatically recycle Volumes AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes Volume Retention = 30 days # How long should the Full Backups be kept? (#06) Maximum Volume Bytes = 50G # Limit Volume size to something reasonable Maximum Volumes = 50 # Limit number of Volumes in Pool Label Format = "Full-" # Volumes will be labeled "Full-<volume-id>" } Pool { Name = Incremental Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes # Bareos can automatically recycle Volumes AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes Volume Retention = 15 days # How long should the Incremental Backups be kept? (#12) Maximum Volume Bytes = 1G # Limit Volume size to something reasonable Maximum Volumes = 200 # Limit number of Volumes in Pool Label Format = "Incremental-" # Volumes will be labeled "Incremental-<volume-id>" } why does it just keep eating space? There are files in there that date back to Dec -rw-r----- 1 bareos bareos 1073737943 Dec 7 21:15 Incremental-0081 -rw-r----- 1 bareos bareos 1073727886 Dec 7 21:12 Incremental-0073 -rw-r----- 1 bareos bareos 175545854 Dec 6 21:21 Incremental-0067 -rw-r----- 1 bareos bareos 1073737881 Dec 6 21:20 Incremental-0066 -rw-r----- 1 bareos bareos 1073737929 Dec 6 21:15 Incremental-0064 -rw-r----- 1 bareos bareos 1073737954 Dec 6 21:14 Incremental-0063 -rw-r----- 1 bareos bareos 1073695474 Dec 6 21:13 Incremental-0053 -rw-r----- 1 bareos bareos 109995168 Dec 5 21:20 Incremental-0041 -rw-r----- 1 bareos bareos 1073737947 Dec 5 21:14 Incremental-0038 -rw-r----- 1 bareos bareos 1073737901 Dec 5 21:13 Incremental-0037 -rw-r----- 1 bareos bareos 1073708261 Dec 5 21:12 Incremental-0031 -rw-r----- 1 bareos bareos 905668495 Dec 4 21:18 Incremental-0030 -rw-r----- 1 bareos bareos 1073737945 Dec 4 21:13 Incremental-0029 -rw-r----- 1 bareos bareos 1073716507 Dec 4 21:11 Incremental-0024 -rw-r----- 1 bareos bareos 9549404191 Dec 4 16:05 Full-0021 -rw-r----- 1 bareos bareos 4225951421 Dec 3 13:46 Full-0010 why have these not been recycled? Why do I have files older than 30 days? so confused -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "bareos-users" group.
