Hello,

I use the default schedule:
Schedule {
  Name = "WeeklyCycle"
  Run = Full 1st sun at 3:05
  Run = Differential 2nd-5th sun at 3:05
  Run = Incremental mon-sat at 3:05
}

All generations should be store on the same volume. But every full backup
should take a new volume. One way to do this is to say:
Volume Use Duration = 1 months

But this period is not right because sometimes it is 4 weeks and in other
months it is 5 weeks. And actually it should always be 1 day less.

And what happens if for any reason the full backup is not run when planned?

At the moment I am keeping 3 full cycles specified by the retention period in
the pool. Is there a way to purge & prune the oldest volume when disk space
would exhaust. At least this should be possible in a before script if estimate
and purge or create volume functions are acessible there.

Maybe I am thinking much to complicated and there much simpler solutions -
hopefully.

Regards,
Mick
