This makes a lot of sense. I had just come to a similar realization
after reading another post in this list.
Thanks for the clarification!

Hi all,
we do full backups every second sunday of the month and daily
incremental backups in between. File and job rentention ist one month.
Bareos disables job and file retention per default (these parameters
are also deprecated) and only uses pool based retention.
In this setup full backups get deleted when their retention period is
reached, although there are (newer) incremental backups that rely on
it. Which renders them kind of useless for us.
Is this per design or a misconfiguration on our side? Or did I
misunderstand something? How can I achieve that full backups will be
kept until all dependant incremental jobs also have reached their
retention date?
It makes sense to have separate pools for data with similar retention
periods. Usually, you have a "full" and a "incremental" pool, where
the full pool usually has a longer retention period than the
incremental pool.
This mechanism makes sure that your incrementals are recylced before
your fulls.
