Volumes won't get deleted automatically. If you don't want to recycle existing volumes, you have to delete old ones manually, or make a script to do it. Deleting might require both deleting from the catalog (since you have a limit of 'maximum volumes' which would prevent creating new ones) and also deleting the actual files. I think there were some discussion about that kind of script recently (in January?) in this list. Btw, if this isn't your private-only system, it would be wise to remove the passwords from the conf files you post to public list. -- TiN ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
