Hello Store Advs, Yes, if you want to keep job information and use prunning, you can set appropriate bigger values for Job Retention and Volume Retention directives. In this case prunning will work primarily for file records.
Or if you need to keep the job history information for statistics purposes, you can use the Bacula Statistics function for that. Baculum doesn't support it yet but there is a plan to add that support. Best regards, Marcin Haba (gani) On Tue, 20 Oct 2020 at 19:18, Store Advs <jaenna...@hotmail.com> wrote: > > Thank you.
