Hello list!
In my current Bacula configuration, a single Client have different Pools for
it's Incremental, Differential and Full Backup. For a specific Client, I
have the following configuration:
Client {
Name = client.ptierp-teste-top
Address = ptierp-teste-top.pti
Catalog = cat.default
Password = "XXX"
* File Retention = 6 months
Job Retention = 6 months*
}
Job {
Name = job.ptierp-teste-top
Client = client.ptierp-teste-top
JobDefs = jobdef.default
Full Backup Pool = pool.full.muitobaixo
Differential Backup Pool = pool.diff.alto
* Incremental Backup Pool = pool.inc.muitobaixo*
}
Pool {
Name = pool.inc
Pool Type = Backup
Storage = st.tpa
* Volume Use Duration = 1 day
Volume Retention = 1 day*
Scratch Pool = scratch.tpa
RecyclePool = scratch.tpa
File Retention = 1 day
Job Retention = 1 day
Cleaning Prefix = "CLN"
}
I run a Incremental Backup from Monday trough Friday and, with this Pool
(using the Volume Retention option), I want to keep only 1 day of
Incremental Backup history, but I'm keeping the Differental and Full Backup
for longer periods.
The problem is, at the end of the Incremental Backup, I see this message in
the log:
28-Jan 03:34 dir.ptibacula-dir JobId 130: Begin pruning Jobs older than 1
day .
28-Jan 03:34 dir.ptibacula-dir JobId 130: No Jobs found to prune.
28-Jan 03:34 dir.ptibacula-dir JobId 130: Begin pruning Jobs.
*28-Jan 03:34 dir.ptibacula-dir JobId 130: Pruned Files from 2 Jobs for
client client.ptierp-teste-top from catalog.*
28-Jan 03:34 dir.ptibacula-dir JobId 130: End auto prune.
Before 28-Jan, I had only ran 1 Incremental Backup, because I started the
backups for this Client at 26-Jan (which was a Full Backup). Hence, I
believe that the Incremental Backup Pruned the Files From the Incremental
Backup at 27-Jan and the Full Backup at 26-Jan.
That can be proven because I try to run "list files jobid=xxx" using the
jobid of the last Full Backup for this Client, and I got nothing listed.
Will Bacula always assume the Volume Retention from the Pool being used
period to Prune files? Even if a specifically set the File Retention and Job
Retention on the Client? Even if I have different Pool for a single Client?
Thanks!
