Not quite... Bacula does not migrate volumes, but jobs.

Maybe it just means the database records?? It definitely means that. > Is there a way to cause this to happen automatically? > If not is it safe to just delete the "Volume" files after a migration? No, you have to delete the corresponding catalog records, too. > Or do we have to manually purge them in the console, then delete? Yes. Although it might be simpler to leave them and reuse them for future jobs.
