Adam, Sorry, but no, you can't do it. If you are backing up to DISK and using one job per volume, you can delete the disk volume holding a specific job, but no, there is no feasible way within Bacula to erase only a single job from a tape that contains multiple jobs. You could conceivably write an add-on tool that could read Bacula tape format and go in and zero all the tape blocks corresponding to a particular job, but it is such a niche requirement it's unlikely to ever happen in Bacula itself. Your best bet, which you CAN do with existing Bacula functionality, would be to copy the jobs you want to KEEP to a new tape, then erase the tape. -- Phil Stracchino Babylon Communications ph...@caerllewys.net p...@co.ordinate.org Landline: +1.603.293.8485 Mobile: +1.603.998.6958 _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
