Hmmm, I have a second client configured in the same manner. The only difference is that the second client has 240 1gb volumes instead of 60 1gb volumes. The configs are identical and the larger client has no issues. Both backup jobs start and finish within 10 minutes of each other, yet the smaller backup has it's job purged and the larger backup does not. Still digging.
