Hi,

In my bacula configuration

All clients have following setting
-------------------------------------------
  File Retention = 30 days
  Job Retention = 1 months
-------------------------------------------

Pools
-------------------------------------------
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
  Volume Retention = 30 days
  Maximum Volume Bytes = 1610612736000
  Maximum Volumes = 3
-------------------------------------------

I have 3 volumes as below

+---------+------------+-----------+---------+-------------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+----------------------------------------------+
| MediaId | VolumeName | VolStatus | Enabled | VolBytes          | VolFiles
| VolRetention | Recycle | Slot | InChanger | MediaType |
LastWritten         |
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+-------------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
|        1 | Per1Vol00        | Full          |       1 | 1,736,908,721,471
|       404 |    1,209,600 |       0 |    0 |         1 | File    |
2007-10-30 23:20:20               |
|        2 | Per1Vol01        | Purged     |       1 | 1,051,894,171,338 |
    244 |    1,209,600 |       0 |    0 |         1 | File    | 2007-10-07
04:09:46               |
|        3 | Per1Vol02        | Append    |       1 |            28,849,570
|           0 |    2,592,000 |       1 |    0 |         1 | File   |
2007-10-31 07:14:22                |
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+-------------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+-----------------------+---------------------------------------------+

My Maximum Volume Bytes setting were not working as you can see volume
Per1Vol00 grown to 1,736,908,721,471 Byets. So I manually updated all 3
volumes and made  Maximum Volume Bytes = 1610612736000  for each volume.

After this bacula  Pruned 168 Jobs on Volume "Per1Vol00"  & Pruned 105 Jobs
on Volume "Per1Vol01" from catalog. and changed Per1Vol1 status to Purged
Now when I do list jobs it shows jobs only from 17 Oct 2007 till date.

Although I kept

File Retention = 30 days
Job Retention = 1 months
Volume Retention = 30 days

I can not see my old backups.

Even I can not do restoration now as all Full backups were done on the 5 Oct
2007 (Full backup happens once in a month)
