My pool def is like this:
Pool {
Name = file_abc
Pool Type = Backup
Volume Retention = 28 days
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
LabelFormat = abc
Maximum Volume Bytes = 100G
Maximum Volumes = 5
Action On Purge = Truncate
}
I don't have:
Recycle Oldest Volume = yes
RecyclePool = file_abc
Could that be the reason I'm not getting recycling to keep disc space under
control?
