Am I right?
Not exactly. "Recycle Oldest Volume" will recycle the volume honoring the retention period. It will not recycle the volume unless it has expired even if there are no appendable volumes left. There is another option called "Purge Oldest Volume" which doesn't honor the retention period and it will recycle the volume regardless of the retention period. Also, depending on your backup strategy you might find the option "Maximum volumes" useful. -- Josip Deanovic ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Command Line: Reinvented for Modern Developers Did the resurgence of CLI tooling catch you by surprise?
