Dell NetWorker 19.9 Administration Guide

Changing the volume recycle policy

You can override the retention policy for a volume by changing the recycle policy from automatic to manual. You may want to set the recycle policy to manual to keep save sets on a volume longer than the specified retention period. If you reset a volume to the automatic recycle policy, then the original retention policy applies to the volume.

Unmount the volume by right-clicking the device in the Devices window, and selecting Unmount.

NOTE:A volume that has been set to manual recycle retains that setting, even after the volume is relabeled. You must explicitly reset the volume to automatic recycle.
  1. In the Administration window, click Media.
  2. In the left pane, select either Disk Volumes or Tape Volumes.
    A list of volumes appears in the right pane.
  3. Right-click the volume, and select Recycle.
    The Recycle dialog box appears.
  4. Select either the Auto or Manual recycle policy.
  5. Click OK.

Mount the volume by right-clicking the device in the Devices window, and selecting Mount.
