Hi,


You are right. My answer was wrong. I did some research in the manual and I found this:

(page 292 in the pdf):


---------------------


File Retention = <time-period-specification> The File Retention

record defines the length of time that Bacula will keep File records

in the Catalog database. When this time period expires, and if Au-

toPrune is set to yes, Bacula will prune (remove) File records that

are older than the specified File Retention period. The pruning will

occur at the end of a backup Job for the given Client. Note that the

Client database record contains a copy of the File and Job retention

periods, but Bacula uses the current values found in the Director’s

Client resource to do the pruning.


---------------------


So regarding the documentation you don't need to do anything else. You have already 

restarted the director daemon.

Andras, the update command doesn't have any argument about clients resource:


Update choice:

     1: Volume parameters

     2: Pool from resource

     3: Slots from autochanger


   Could you please point me where...? 


  Thanks for your time!!!


   Maybe i wasn't clear, the values that i want to update are from the Client Resource in bacula-dir.conf


Client {

  Name = Client1

  Address = 192.168.2.251 

  FDPort = 9102

  Catalog = MyCatalog

  Password = "mypassword"

  File Retention = 26 days

  Job Retention = 27 days

  AutoPrune = yes

}


   This are the values i want to update.

   

   Sorry for this mistake, greetings!!!
