Description Miguel Santos 2013-09-19 09:41:22 UTC

Description of problem:

Bacula does not respect the attribute Action On Purge = Truncate specified in the pool definition of the Director configuration.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.0.0-12

How reproducible:
Base installation of bacula-director, bacula-storage and bacula-client. Set "Action On Purge = Truncate" on the pool definition of the director daemon.


Steps to Reproduce:
1.- Create a basic configuration where we can backup to file system. See attached configuration files.
2.- Specify on the Pool definition the attribute "Action On Purge = Truncate"
3.- Manually purge a volume
 # bconsole
 * purge
 * 3
 * (select the pool)
 * (select the media)

Actual results:
The record is marked as purged but the file is not truncated.

Expected results:
The record is marked as purged but the file should be truncated.
