That is correct. > It also doesn't make sense to recycle as soon as the job no longer > exists in the database. Normally you have more than 1 job on a volume and jobs may have different retention periods. > I limit the job retention period to keep the > database small but I can keep the volumes a lot longer without > problem. Extend the job retention but cut the file retention. The job record does not store that much information where the files will be the bulk of the database size.
