That is a bad configuration because bacula only recycles complete volumes, so it will no recycle the 20g volume until all of it has reached its retention period. You probably want Maximum Volumes = 20 Maximum Volume Bytes = 1g __Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
