Am I correct that this is a safe operation to run regularly and won't end up losing data that is within my retention periods?
Correct.However, if there is a fixed amount of disk-space (which is usually the case) my preferred method is as follows:
* Configure your disk pools as you need them (i.e. Full, Differential, Incremental, Whatever)
* Disable auto-labeling * Set maximum volume bytes for each of the pools to the same value * Add a scratch pool* Set "scratch pool" and "recycle pool" in your backup pools to point to that scratch pool * Pre-label N volumes in the scratch pool where N = total space / maximum volume bytes
Now when your backups write to one of the pools, they'll fetch volumes from the scratch pool as required. When a volume is recycled it will go back to the scratch pool, so it is available to be reused in any other backup pool.
