Summary0001023: Cleanup of volumes not happning anymore in always incremental schedule
DescriptionHi,


This worked properly for a long time, but now we see the volumes building up and building up until the disk gets full :(

Anything changed in newer bareos version? Please see attachment

I don't think we changed config at all regarding this, so we're puzzled with what we see.

In this case it's almost every day, we have other cases where there are big gaps now and then. Why is it happening? It creates an overload of volumes and our disks fill up for nothing :|

Your feedback would be greatly appreciated!! :)

Any idea perhaps? We now almost daily need to purge tons of volumes manually which is getting a real hassle atm :(

As far as I know the system has been working fine for months with a certain version of Bareos :)

Is this still reproducible with supported OS and current Bareos version 22x?
