Hi Arno
thx for yr information. that means bacula starts reusing only if it
reachs some of those limits (time, count oder jobcount) ?
Correct. More abstract, Bacula always appends to an available volumes,
and availability is controlled by these configuration statements (and
other things).
If I dont set those limits, it will take all space available ??
Yes. After that it will ask you for a new volume because it can't find
or create another one itself.
Once you are there you are in trouble :-)

thx

Hi,
I've running a bacula setup that stores its backups to disk. basicly
i'm very satisfied with the system, but something looks a bit strange
for me.
I get the impresssion, that bacula uses as much diskspace as it can
get and is not reusing pruned diskspace.
sample:
...
Pool {
Name = Database
Pool Type = Backup
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 14 days Maximum Volumes = 4
Recycle = yes
Recycle Oldest Volume = yes
Label Format = "Database-"
}
You need to limit either the time a volume can be used, the size it
can have, or the number of jobs to store in it.
After applying the necessary changes in the configuration and
reloading or restarting the DIR, use the update command to modify the
existing volumes accordingly.
