Hello, We are having Fujitsu Tape library with 2 magzines enabled with 23 Slots + 1 I/E slot.

Can we make use of the volumes defined under special_backup and system_files pools , in the odd_week and even_week pools? 2> Secondly, we used to have 120 Days of Volume Rentention period # Default pool definition Pool { Name = odd_week Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically recycle Volumes AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes Volume Retention = 120 days # 4 Months
Which we changed to be 90 days (3 Months) , but still the "Last Written" and "When Expire" differs by 4 months (Please see above output). Why is it so? Any help is really appreciated.
