I believe the answer is no, but as a happy bacula user for 10 years I am somewhat surprised at the lack of flexibility.

The scenarios is this: A fileserver (1 client) with dozens of large (size-wise) filesystems (12 jobs), but a couple of those filesystems are large (filecount-wise). We would really like to set different file retention periods on those high-filecount jobs (50+million), because they are forcing the Catalog to go beyond our size constraints. However, we also don't want to lose the file retention longevity of that client's other jobs (5 years). The only hack I can think of is to define 2 clients for 1 actual host, but I'd rather not go down that route, because tracking jobs and associating them, especially over multiple years, will get that much more tricky.

Ideas?

thanks,
Stephen
