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.
You could try some scripting and attach a run after job script to the
full backups. You'd provide the volume name and the status to the script.
When the status is OK, update the given volume to status Used by feeding
a command like "update volume=XXX status=Used" to bconsole.
Volume expiry should work automatically.
