Hello Marc,
Your autoprune configurations seems ok for me. Bacula will delete from
catalog jobs/files older than 14 days and purge volumes older than 14
days. In the case of volumes, they will not be reused if Bacula finds
an available volume for writing (status = append) or if it can create
a new one.
I don´t know a solution with automatic label configuration where you
have space for new volumes and Bacula recycle/reuse an existing one
instead of creating a new one.
Your problem is "This is causing our disk based storage to fill up
with unused volume files."
If you know exactly the amount of space you have for your backups, you
can limit the number/size of your volumes to fit in this amount of
space. In the case of your pool configuration, you will use 5 TB (50G
x 100 volumes). This will be the total amount of space that will be
used by your pool.
Pool {
Name = File
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically recycle
Volumes
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
Action On Purge = Truncate
Volume Retention = 14 days # Max retention
Maximum Volume Bytes = 50G # Limit Volume size to something
reasonable
Maximum Volumes = 100 # Limit number of Volumes in Pool
Label Format = "Vol-" # Auto label
}
Best regards,
Ana
