Hi All,
We are using bacula 13.x.
As part of the periodic garbage collection activity, we do purging and
truncating of the stranded disk volumes (volumes that have no jobs associated
with them) to conserve the disk space.
We do it running a bash script that first identifies such stranded volumes (at
times hundreds of them) and then it purges each volume through a "for loop"
with a bconsole command as given below:
for vol in `echo ${vol_list}`
do
echo "purge volume=$vol yes" | bconsole
done
However for every single iteration of the purge command in the loop above, the
script connects to the bacula-dir , which seems to be very slow, hence
inefficient.
Is there a way to connect to the bacula-dir only once and execute the purge
command for number of volumes in one go?
