Hello,

I have three pools defined for a host with differing retention times:

Pool {
    Name = myhost.example.com-full
    Pool Type = Backup
    Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
    Recycle = yes
    AutoPrune = yes
    Volume Retention = 6 months
    LabelFormat = "myhost.example.com-full-"
}

Pool {
    Name = myhost.example.com-diff
    Pool Type = Backup
    Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
    Recycle = yes
    AutoPrune = yes
    Volume Retention = 4 weeks
    LabelFormat = "myhost.example.com-diff-"
}

Pool {
    Name = myhost.example.com-inc
    Pool Type = Backup
    Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
    Recycle = yes
    AutoPrune = yes
    Volume Retention = 8 days
    LabelFormat = "myhost.example.com-inc-"
}

declared in the Schedule so:

Schedule {
    Name = "myhost.example.com-monthly"
    Run = Level=Full Pool=myhost.example.com-full 1st sun at 23:05
    Run = Level=Differential Pool=myhost.example.com-diff 2nd-5th sun at 
23:05
    Run = Level=Incremental Pool=myhost.example.com-inc mon-sat at 23:05
}


This works fine unless a job get upgraded from incremental or diff to 
full. When a job gets upgraded, Bacula uses the pool the job was 
upgraded from instead of the pool the job was upgraded to. That is, when 
a job gets upgraded from inc to full, the inc pool is used. This causes 
the full jobs to be purged at the inc retention interval, which uses 
quite a bit more network traffic and disk space than I had planned for.
How can I make Bacula use the full pool when a job gets upgraded?

Thanks,

Michael Anderson
