[Bacula-users] Erase a disk volume ?
Hi, I got some disk volumes that I just want to erase on demand. Indeed, theses ones were not recycled for various reasons (not in the good pool, new job upgraded to full, bad retention times…) I don't want to delete theses volumes because I want to check that in the time theses volumes will be recycled and so I can validate my backup strategy. All I want is to free the space used by theses old volumes because they have been purged . I thought in keeping the file and writing a null value into it : maybe something like echo /Volumes/LabelOfTheVolume I want to keep the label in order to reuse the volume Thank you in advance -- vRanger cuts backup time in half-while increasing security.
