Hi Bruno,
thank you for your answer and for your suggestions. You are right, but how can
I avoid, that bareos uses so much volumes? It does not prune the used volumes.
All of my harddisks are running out of space, because alle volumes are in state
'used'.
Can you advise, what to do?
Thanks very much,
Ludwig
