Hi!
Yes, I know.
But I have 6 clients. And for each client I wrote two jobs:
1) Backup to file (pool: filepool)

One more thing that is worth mentioning...
If you truly want the monthly tapes to only ever be used for that
particular month, you may wish to consider creating a pool for each
month instead. Then in your Schedule you can specify the specific pool
for that month:

There are a couple of things you can do in combination to get the result
you want...
First off, in your pool set a 'volume use duration' - this will restrict
how long a time span of data can exist on a tape. For instance in your
case you could set the volume use duration to 32 days, this would
Hi!
I have a problem with my tape pool configuration.
I want to use exactly 12 LTO tapes (one tape per month).
After 12 month the oldest tape shall be reused without appending new data.
But bacula seems to ignore my recycle and purge configuration (see below).
