Okay, now I am even more confused. My volume retention period is 6 days and has always been 6 days, while the job retention period was set for 30 days. On day 7, the volumes does NOT auto recycle unless I purge it. Pruning it only removes 2 files normally of the 25 or so on the tape. Now that I've adjusted the job retention period to 6 days, do you I still need to update the volumes? Or is the job retention period a red herring? Or is there something else I need to do? -- Harondel J. Sibble Sibble Computer Consulting Creating solutions for the small business and home computer user.
