You are unfortunately leaving out perhaps the only thing that matters,
which would be a view of 'list media'. I'd think that would be a
necessity, and then we can work backwards from there. Be advised though
that, to my knowledge, 'Prune Oldest Volume' means simply that -- to
prune it. If that volume has data on it that is still protected by its
retention time, you can prune it all you want -- it isn't going anywhere.
