Hello,

I have this problem with one of my client experiencing pruning of a volume
that is taking too long (and in the end I ended up recycling it manually by
updating the volume status). I have googled up on this and from what I
understand it is mostly due to the database indexing (to be honest I don't
entirely understand this part).

My question is, is there any downside or side effect if I were to include a
script that looks up for Used volume and update it to Recycle before the
backup runs for the day. I am using this script on another client and
things are going fine over there, but I'm just worried if there is any
impact in a long run.

If anyone would be so kind to explain to me what exactly it means by
pruning; as in what bacula does when it runs pruning on a volume, it is
much appreciated as well. I have read somewhere that bacula removes the
jobs associated  with the volume from the catalog.

Thanks.
