You could use the purge volume command with each volume that you don't want to keep. That will allow Bacula to recycle those volumes. OTOH, you don't give much information about why it failed three times, so the same problem might happen again (hint: post the full logs). __Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WhatsUp Gold - Download Free Network Management Software The most intuitive, comprehensive, and cost-effective network management toolset available today.
