I have next backup strategy: 1) 3 pools: DayPool, WeekPool, MonthPool. In DayPool I have 4 volumes (tapes) for monday-thuesday, in WeekPool I have 3 volumes (tapes) for each week in a month and 12 volumes for MonthPool. Each Pool has its volume retention - for example for DayPool is 6 days and 4 hour, for WeekPool is 27 days. 2) One Storage 3) Same clients 4) One Job - Full Backup - for each client. 5) One Shedule: Schedule { Name = "DWM Cycle" Run = Level=Full Pool=DayPool mot-thu at 20:00 Run = Level=Full Pool=WeekPool 1st-3rd fri at 20:00 Run = Level=Full Pool=MonthPool 4th fri at 20:00 }
The Problem - I can't set Job Retention and File Retention for concrete Job or concrete Pool. Job Retention and Files Retention can be set only in Pool and Client resource, but it purge all jobs and files from other pools too. I did it with different values. If Job Retention and Files Retention were smaller than Volume Retention Bacula purged Jobs and I have empty volume whithout any data in Veiw and Restore Browser. If Job Retention and Files Retention were bigger then Volume Retention I could see Jobs, which wasnt in reality because they was purged by volume retention and rewrited. In my case if I set Job Retention and Files Retention as Volume Retention for DayPool it will all rigth for day's backup, bat I will have emtpy WeekPool's and Month volumes and If I set Joob Retention and Files Retention as Volume Retention of WeekPool I wiil have dead jobs present in Browsers. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Job-Retention-for-concrete-Pool-purge-jobs-in-other-pools%21-tp28362535p28362535.html Sent from the Bacula - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
