I guess you have only changed the configuration files, now you need to update the sql catalog. Do update = volume parmeters = all volume from pool (and select the pool you changed the retention). Jordi Moles a écrit : hi, until last week i used to have volume retention set to 18 days. I

As you can see below, when I update NumVols to reflect the reality from 99 to 109, NumVols value is updated by Bacula : when it starts it's put back to 99. I really don't understand why Bacula rewrites the value of NumVols and so then generates errors about already existing volume Bacula tries

Hmm, you are right, Bacula does set the NumVols itself. So the problem is that you have less that 109 volumes in the media table (i.e. some missing in the sequence 1...109). The simple LabelFormat with no variable expansion characters expects NumVols to match the pool. There is a hack to allow
